One of the juiciest points of drama during the previous season of\u00a0The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives<\/a>\u00a0is whether something went on between Marciano Brunette and Demi when they appeared on Vanderpump Villa together.<\/p>\n

And I can already tell it’s definitely going to be addressed further in the upcoming episodes of season three.<\/p>\n

But, if you haven\u2019t watched Vanderpump Villa yet you might be slightly confused on what\u2019s been going on during another TV show, so let\u2019s explain everything from the start, as well as who Marciano actually is.<\/p>\n

So, first off what actually is Vanderpump Villa? Well, it\u2019s one of Lisa Vanderpump\u2019s spinoff shows, and features hospitality professionals as they cater for the celebrity guests on the show, and of course features some saucy elements as guests and staff form romantic connections.<\/p>\n

During the show, Marciano was the lead server whilst the cast of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives featured as some of his guests.<\/p>\n

When Vanderpump Villa was first filming season one, the main issue Marciano dealt with was actually whether he was in a relationship with his co-star Hannah Fouch or not.<\/p>\n

He told\u00a0Us Weekly<\/a>: \u201cWhen it came to filming our show, I knew what I was going to do going into it.<\/p>\n

\u201cI knew how I was gonna act and then from there it was gonna be one of those things of, \u2018How do I make sure I do differentiate from [that version] when I\u2019m not filming?’\u201d<\/p>\n

The pair both returned for season two of Vanderpump Villa, meaning Marciano was single when Demi, Jen, Jessi, Layla and Mikayla from Secret Lives of Mormon Wives made their debut as guests on the show.<\/p>\n

Marciano soon became very smitten with Demi, who is married to Bret Engemann, whilst nothing happened between them during the show, he hinted heavily that things did happen off camera.<\/p>\n

Demi has denied anything romantic or otherwise happening between herself and Marciano.<\/p>\n

Then, one month after filming for Vanderpump Villa finished, Marciano made an unexpected appearance on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives to claim that it was actually Jessi who he had an affair with off camera.<\/p>\n

During Vanderpump Villa, Marciano only spent two days with Demi, but also started catching feelings for her, with his co-stars on the show asking him whether he hooked up with any of his fellow Villa cast members after filming finished.<\/p>\n

In regards to his alleged affair with Jessi, he claimed: \u201cWe have tried meeting up [to continue the affair].<\/p>\n

\u201cJordan doesn\u2019t know the truth about how extensive it was. It was not just a one-time hookup thing. It was not some one-night stand.\u201d<\/p>\n

Whilst both Secret Lives of Mormon Wives stars have firmly denied anything happened between them and Marciano during Vanderpump Villa, it looks like we\u2019ll be getting some answer during season three of the show.<\/p>\n

And, as it happens, Marciano actually ended up getting fired from Vanderpump Villa<\/a>, so hopefully he can’t cause any other trouble with the other guests…<\/p>\n
