WHITNEY Leavitt’s husband Conner has jumped to her defense after Viall File hosts Nick Viall and Natalie Joy were accused of mom-shaming her.

Mormon Wives star Whitney, 33, is gearing up to make her Broadway debut as Roxy Hart in Chicago following a stint on Dancing With the Stars.

After the Viall File presenters questioned how she was “prioritizing being a mom” with her hectic schedule, Conner, 31, has had his say.

He posted a video of him and their oldest children Sedona, 6, and Liam, 4, dancing and wrote: “We can’t wait to go watch mommy perform on Broadway.

“Teamwork looks different for everyone. This is how we do ours.”

During the podcast episode, Natalie said: “I am curious how Whitney — and maybe this is just a human level, mom level question — on how she’s managing both, right?

“Because right now, her career has skyrocketed.

“She just did Dancing With The Stars for what, three, four months? I know she has kids in school level, maybe they’re homeschooled, I don’t know.

“But to be in L.A. for four months doing Dancing With The Stars, and then to now shift to NYC doing Chicago, like that takes so much of her time.”

Natalie added: “How is she managing, prioritizing being a mom and her kids who I imagine have some sort of schedule and routine?

“And I know their home base was Utah… I’m just so curious.”

But, commenting on Conner’s video, fans hit out at the presenter.

One wrote: “Judging a woman for going after her dreams and having a supportive dad/husband to support her while she does this in 2025 is crazyyyy! We love a power couple.”

Someone else said: “nick viall podcast was SO weird. whitney isn’t the first or last mother to pursue a creative project like broadway. so happy for her and this tik tok was the perfect response!”

And a third added: “Great answer to the weird podcast from Nick Viall.”
