Miranda later admitted she had not been fully truthful about her role, saying Taylor\u2019s frustration with her came from not being authentic about what really happened, per <a

href=\"https:\/\/www.eonline.com\/news\/1429585\/the-secret-lives-of-mormon-wives-season-4-cast-relationship-status\">E!<\/a>, she explained that the issues in her marriage predated the swinging drama, even if the scandal definitely did not help.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3129\" data-end=\"3551\">She announced her split from Chase in August 2024, and more recent interviews show she\u2019s focused on co-parenting and not romantically reconnecting with him.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"3553\" data-end=\"4169\">Nowadays, Taylor and Miranda appear to have made efforts to rebuild their friendship, and
