Doug Mason, ex-husband of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Taylor Frankie Paul, told Us Weekly that hearing his voicemail played on the Hulu show without his consent felt violating. The voicemail aired in an episode showing the couple's contentious post-divorce relationship.

Mason said he was unaware the private recording would be used on the series and that the experience of seeing personal communications broadcast was invasive. Paul has not publicly responded to Mason's comments.

The show has drawn millions of viewers and made the cast's personal conflicts a recurring tabloid subject. Mason and Paul share two children and divorced after Paul's 2022 'soft swinging' revelation that launched her viral fame.
