Mikayla Matthews and Jace Terry have raised significant questions about their relationship following their announcement of separation during Episode 9 of Season 4 of the reality show Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The couple, who have been married since 2018 and share four children, revealed that they are facing serious intimacy issues and personal struggles.

In the episode, Matthews discussed the challenges they have encountered, including her past experiences with sexual abuse, which have impacted their relationship. She stated, “We both agreed to do a separation,” indicating that the decision was mutual and made with their children’s well-being in mind. The couple’s children include Beckham, 8, Haven, 6, Tommie, 4, and Lottie, who was born in July 2025.

Matthews elaborated on the emotional toll of their situation, expressing uncertainty about the timeline for their separation. “I think it’s definitely hard to put a timeline on the situation because it could take weeks, it could take months to be healed,” she explained. This statement underscores the complexity of their relationship and the healing process that lies ahead.

Despite the separation, Matthews emphasized that it is not necessarily a permanent decision. She noted, “I don’t think it’s like with the intention of being separated forever,” suggesting that there may be hope for reconciliation in the future. However, she also acknowledged her need to focus on healing from her past trauma and addressing various issues beyond just their intimacy struggles.

Jace Terry, for his part, expressed his desire for their children to witness a healthy relationship between their parents. He stated, “More than the actual sex I just want to feel like I can connect with my wife again, and I want to feel loved by my wife.” This sentiment reflects the couple’s commitment to maintaining a positive environment for their children, even amidst personal challenges.

Matthews has also been dealing with an undiagnosed chronic illness while managing the demands of motherhood, particularly after the birth of their third child. This additional layer of complexity may have contributed to the difficulties in their marriage, as both partners navigate their individual struggles while trying to maintain a family unit.

As the couple embarks on this new chapter, many questions remain about their future and the potential for reconciliation. While they have taken a step back to focus on their individual needs and healing, the dynamics of their relationship and the impact on their children will continue to be closely monitored. Details remain unconfirmed regarding their next steps and how they plan to navigate co-parenting during this separation.
