Demi Engemann is letting this secret out.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star spoke out after her costar Jessi Draper Ngatikaura claimed that Demi's husband Bret Engemann "likes to drink her piss."
“What my husband and I did one-time behind closed doors, was a consensual and private experience in our marriage,” Demi wrote in a Nov. 25 Instagram Story. “I won't let a private act between my husband and I be a distraction from a serious act that I did not consent to.”
The 30-year-old went on to explain that she had “shared this information with Jessi in confidence nearly two years ago.”
And the reality star found it “very telling” that Jessi chose “to break storyline and bring it up now,” as she wondered if it had anything to do with the revelation about Jessi’s own emotional affair with Marciano Brunette, whom Demi alleged had engaged in “unwanted touch” with her while the SLOMW cast visited Italy to film a Vanderpump Villa crossover episode.
Demi added, “This is nothing more than a desperate attempt to shift attention away from her own behavior.”
The response comes after Jessi’s own Nov. 25 Instagram Story, in which the 33-year-old made an NSFW claim about Demi “since she wants to be petty and be an a—hole.”
"I think I’m just gonna go ahead and say that grandpa Bret likes to drink her piss like it’s dirty soda,” Jessi said in her video, "and he gulps it down like water.”
E! News reached out to Demi and Bret’s reps for comment on the claim but has not heard back.
In addition to her NSFW confession, Jessi shared a screenshot of a comment Demi left on a TikTok, in which Vanderpump Villa star Lisa Vanderpump defended Marciano, who has also denied Demi’s allegations.
While Demi wrote that Jessi was likely “somewhere punching air right now that Lisa is talking about me and not her,” Jessi said her costar was in her “crashout era,” dismissing the comment.
“Her saying something like this is laughable,” Jessi added, “because [I] genuinely would never be jealous of someone saying these things that Lisa’s saying about her.”
And Jessi had more to say after Demi reacted to the NSFW claim about her husband, slamming her costar's response as a "good PR written statement.”
“Shift attention away from what exactly?” Jessi asked Demi in a Nov. 25 Instagram Story, adding, “I have been the only one between the two of us to actually face my story head on and share the details. I’m not hiding a damn thing. You’re the one hiding sweetheart and everyone can see it.”
Demi and Jessi are far from the only ones bringing the drama to reality TV. Keep reading for more about the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives cast.
