During her recent appearance on Nick Viall’s “Viall Files” podcast, Demi spilled some tea about her costars. And let’s just say, shots fired!

Demi Engemann Also Fired Shots At Jen Affleck
It wasn’t just Taylor who Demi discussed on the podcast. She also had some things to say about Jen Affleck.
She said Jen put on a show when the cameras were on, calling it a “performance.”
“Jen is very performative. Everything was kind of an act, it was very much…the slow blinking, she had it on tap,” Demi said. When asked how Jen is “in real life,” Demi said, “Way more laid back. She’s not as bold as she comes off on camera.”
Demi said off camera, Jen is “easy going,” but on camera, “she’s this bold Jen that is willing to call anybody out and stand up to her mean husband.”
She also said that Jen gets “very performative” when it comes to her husband, Zak Affleck.
Jessi Ngatikaura’s Name Also Entered The Chat
When Jessi’s name entered the chat, Demi said she is “blocked on everything.”
“I attempted to have a conversation with her. Honestly, truly, the thing that sucks so bad is that so much of this was either misunderstanding and things being twisted or just like completely the ego getting in the way of actually genuinely having a conversation,” Demi said on the podcast. “When I tried to approach her to have that conversation, it was we’ll talk on camera.”
Demi said it was a “very transactional relationship.”
It appears that season 2 is all about truths, friendships unraveling, and more drama than season 1 could have even dreamed of. Both seasons 1 and 2 are currently streaming on Hulu.
