Scheana Shay broke her silence about the shady comments made about her on Stassi Schroeder‘s new show, House of Stassi — and specifically took aim at The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Jessi Draper.
During the Friday, August 7, episode of her “Scheananigans” podcast — which was titled “A Shady Publicist, A Tiny Penis & A Homewrecking Whore” — Shay, 41, expressed frustration that she was the topic of conversation on another reality show. (Draper, 34, made a comment in the series premiere that Shay wanted to join the cast of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.)
Shay brought the subject up again later, saying, “Also, one thing I wanted to note, which I just found extremely interesting and hypocritical: What did Stassi label me when Vanderpump Rules started?”
Cohosts Kiki Monique and Krystina Arielle both recalled Shay being called a “home-wrecking whore” by Schroeder, 38, on the Bravo show.
“What is Jessi by definition? Stassi’s best friend — her little friend? Just saying,” Shay quipped. “I’m not calling her a whore.”
Shay claimed Draper “cheated on her first husband with her last husband” and then “cheated on her last husband with Marciano [Brunette].”
“That is the definition of a home-wrecker,” she continued. “I just find it very interesting that this is who Stassi is platforming on her show and allowing to talk s*** about me. Just saying.”
Before starring on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, Draper was married to Zach Gish from 2014 to 2019. She then moved on with Jordan Ngatikaura, whom she married in 2020. The former couple are currently going through a divorce after Ngatikaura, 28, filed the paperwork earlier this year.
Draper, for her part, is dating Brunette, with whom she confirmed she had an emotional affair while married to Ngatikaura. Brunette, 33, meanwhile, previously accused Draper of being unfaithful in her first marriage before he rekindled his romance with the hairstylist.
Draper has not addressed the accusations from Shay or Brunette about her first marriage. In the past, Draper has opened up about not being faithful to Ngatikaura amid issues in their relationship.
“When me and Jordan were dealing with this alone, he said to me, ‘If anyone ever finds out, we need to say we were separated because then it’s less of a big deal.’ I remembered Jordan telling me that’s how he wanted me to handle this if anyone found out,” Draper recalled on “The Viall Files” podcast in November 2025. “He ended up saying, ‘If this is going to come out, we have to tell the truth.’”
