The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives star Chase McWhorter sounded off on claims there is a warrant out for his arrest.
Chase, 30, made headlines earlier this week when it was reported that a warrant was issued after he allegedly didn’t show up in court for a hearing scheduled on Monday, January 26. The report claimed that Chase would be at risk of arrest if pulled over.
According to documents obtained by multiple outlets, a court order was issued on Monday for a $500 warrant following a hearing related to an incident that took place last month, which resulted in Chase facing charges for allegedly speeding, driving without a driver’s license and driving on a suspended or revoked license.
Chase took to social media to address the speculation.
Before they were embroiled in a bizarre “soft-swinging” scandal at the center of Mormon #MomTok in 2022, Chase and Miranda McWhorter were simply a couple that got married too young. The pair met shortly after Miranda graduated high school and tied the knot in 2017. At the time, Miranda was 20 and Chase was 22. […]
“No arrest warrant lol,” he wrote via TikTok. “I rescheduled the 9 am hearing to 1 pm due to sick daughter and Miranda being out of town today.”
Chase slammed claims he was “partying” before the hearing after posting footage of himself and Vanderpump Villa star Marciano Brunette at a nightclub, adding, “That was from Friday night lol.”
Us Weekly previously confirmed in December 2025 that Chase was charged with three misdemeanors that July, including possession of a controlled substance, driving under the influence and driving on a suspended or revoked license. His bail was set at $2,500.
Court documents stated that Chase was pulled over after authorities noticed “a vehicle driven by a male, later identified as [Chase], who was unable to maintain his speed and drifted outside of the travel lane several times, almost hitting a curb.”
The police report noted that law enforcement “detected the odor of alcohol and observed he had bloodshot, glassy eyes and slurred speech” when they approached Chase, who “admitted to drinking at a bar and using cocaine before driving.”
Chase subsequently broke his silence on the arrest in a video shared via TikTok.
“Time to address the elephant in the room. And I don’t have a PR person, so we’re just gonna rawdog this s***,” he said at the time. “The reports you saw yesterday that came out about what happened on July 4 with me are true.”
Chase said he wanted to take ownership of the situation, adding, “I was pulled over for driving under the influence, had ingested substances that I shouldn’t have and got behind the wheel of a car. Extremely shortsighted, selfish and dangerous decision. And shout-out to the cop for helping people stay safe on the road, because it could have ended much worse than it did.”
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives fans have watched the cast change on and off screen before the series even debuted. Season 1 of hit reality series, which follows a group of Mormon mom influencers, debuted on Hulu in September 2024 following star Taylor Frankie Paul‘s “soft swinging” sex scandal. “We’re not all swingers,” Whitney […]
While reflecting on the incident, Chase admitted he should have made different choices.
“I should have Ubered, but for some reason, I decided to drive home, and that decision alone kills people every single day,” he said. “I understand the severity of it. Obviously, it was a humiliating low being pulled over and taken in. Terrible look for me.”
Chase recalled having to tell ex-wife Miranda McWhorter that he was arrested. (The pair, who were married from 2017 to 2024, share kids Brooks, 6, and Cohen, 4.)
“Unfortunately, I have been a disappointment to [Miranda] a number of times throughout the time she’s known me, both as a partner and now as a coparent,” he continued. “So, that sucks.”
Chase concluded by apologizing for the “horrible” choice to drive under the influence.
“I am deeply regretful of the decision that I made, and sorry for how it looks, and to everyone that was on the road that day, because obviously that is how people lose lives,” he said. “So extremely sorry about all of it and disappointed damn near everybody around me because of that choice, and I’m dealing with those consequences as well as, you know, anything that happens legally beyond that. So, apologies, I wanted you to hear it from me that it did happen, and it won’t happen again. I’m sorry.”
