The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County star Bobbi Althoff has squashed her season 1 beef with McCall DaPron — and she wants fans to do the same.
“I’m going to need all you people to stop bullying McCall,” Bobbi, 29, wrote via her Instagram Stories on Saturday, November 14. “It’s really out of control. I understand she made some mistakes, but your response to calling her a mean girl is being mean? It’s not necessary.”
Bobbi and McCall, 36, are two of the stars on the Mormon Wives spinoff, which dropped on Hulu earlier this week. In the first few episodes, the two influencers faced off over Bobbi’s dry sense of humor and McCall’s devout Mormonism.
“People make mistakes. People learn from them and people grow,” Bobbi stressed on Saturday. “Imagine having your lowest [and] most vulnerable moments out there for everyone to see. Just be patient and kind and have grace because we are all human.”
Bobbi concluded, “Dog pilling [sic] on anyone is so mean and unnecessary.”
Following the onscreen arguments, Bobbi and McCall have since cleared the air.
“It was just, like, a miscommunication,” Bobbi said on the Thursday, November 12, episode of the “Hulu Get Real” podcast. “Someone told her something about me and it didn’t end up being true, so she was feeling like I lied to her.”
McCall, for her part, also “chalked up” most of the women’s issues to miscommunication.
“Towards the end of [filming], we actually did start to bond, like, you can see that in the show,” Bobbi noted. “After the show, her and I went on a trip for something else … and we got sat next to each other on the plane. It was a 10-hour flight together, [and] we talked the entire time.”
MomTok is growing with the arrival of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County. “A new group of dynamic young mothers in Orange County collide in a community where beliefs are not just their religion; they are their identity,” a logline reads. “While some defend their way of life, fighting against modernity, others embrace […]
McCall further noted how their friendship developed once Mormon Wives: OC production wrapped.
“I felt like I was on good terms with Bobbi by the end of filming, but it wasn’t like we were super close,” McCall, who is one of the older sisters of OG franchise star Mayci Neeley, explained. “We weren’t gonna hang out or call each other.”
Since their long-haul flight away from the cameras, Bobbi and McCall actually became friends who “hang out” and “call each other.”
“I get off the flight. I text Sal[omé Andrea, our costar] and I was like, ‘Sal, I think I like McCall now,’” Bobbi recalled. “And she was like, ‘No way.’ And I was like, ‘No, I’m so serious.’ So then, I was like, ‘You have to bond with her. She’s actually pretty cool.’”
Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County is now streaming on Hulu.
