Jen also submitted a proposed parenting plan, the outlet reported.

Jen, 27, and Zac, 30, met on the Mormon dating app Mutual in 2018 and got married in 2019. They share three children together — Nora, 4, Lucas, 3, and Penelope, 1 — with another on the way.

The “Dancing With the Stars” alum announced her fourth pregnancy in June on Instagram, sharing pics of her showing off her baby bump. Her husband did not appear in the pictures.

Jen and Zac have been open about their marriage struggles on “SLOMW” since Season 1. Jen shared that the two went to therapy to resolve their issues, and that their relationship was strengthened.

Still, the tension continued during Season 5, when Zac was not supportive of Jen’s ambitions, including her wanting to appear on “Sports Illustrated.”

“Zac was taught growing up to not only be modest himself but for it to be an expectation for women around him,” she said in a confessional, adding that it’s “definitely been hard navigating [her] career goals” while also honoring Zac’s “traditional values and traditional views.”

“I feel like if he truly loved me unconditionally, he would want to support me and I don’t even feel like there’s a conversation of a compromise,” she continued.

She also shared that he threatened to divorce her if she got an acting gig and played a character in a relationship with someone else.

“I feel like Zac is not taking these dreams and goals seriously,” she noted. “I think he’s afraid of losing me.”

Jen is set to star in the Hulu reality series’ upcoming spinoff, “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County,” following the family’s move from Utah to Southern California.

The show premieres Nov. 12.
