Jessi Draper and Marciano Brunette Share Kiss at Hulu Event, Star Clarifies Casual Status

Jessi Draper and Marciano Brunette made headlines at Hulu's Get Real House presentation on Wednesday, April 22, in Los Angeles, where the two stars were photographed hugging and kissing during the second annual event showcasing the streaming service's upcoming unscripted programming.

Both Draper and Brunette currently appear on Hulu shows—she on The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives and he on Vanderpump Villa—and they didn't shy away from displaying affection at the industry gathering.

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight at the event, Draper addressed the nature of their relationship. "He's one on the roster," she explained. "You know, one of many. So, we're just having fun right now. I'm single for the first time in ten years. I'm just excited to have fun."

Looking ahead, Draper made clear that she's not seeking commitment. She told the outlet that she doesn't envision herself in a long-term relationship "for a long time" and expects to meet a serious partner years in the future. For now, she's focused on enjoying her newfound single status.

The pair's connection dates back to season two of Vanderpump Villa, when they first met. Their relationship later evolved into an emotional affair that continued after the show.

Draper's marriage to Jordan Ngatikaura came to an end when he filed for divorce earlier this year after several years of marriage.

At the Hulu event, Draper was present alongside fellow cast members from The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. The gathering came as the show was announced to be moving forward with season five filming, following the recent controversies involving Taylor Frankie Paul and Dakota Mortensen. Hulu also used the occasion to introduce the cast of the new Orange County spinoff.

Brunette attended the presentation with his Vanderpump Villa castmates. The announcement was also made that the Vanderpump Villa season three reunion will air on Hulu next Thursday, April 30.
