Love, Loss, and Redemption: Allison Mack's Journey After NXIVM
Allison Mack reflects on her past marriage to actress Nicki Clyne in a recent episode of the "Allison After NXIVM" podcast. Mack shares that Clyne initially did not like her due to her outgoing and performative nature. The two were both involved in the NXIVM organization, with leader Keith Raniere having a relationship with both of them. Eventually, Mack and Clyne became like "sister wives" and decided to get married in 2017 to help Clyne stay in the U.S.
Mack's decision to marry Clyne was met with surprise and concern from her mother, Mindy Mack, who was hurt by the news. Despite her mother's reservations, Allison went through with the marriage, feeling that they were already committed to each other in many ways. The marriage lasted until 2020, when Mack filed for divorce amidst legal troubles related to her involvement with NXIVM.
In April 2018, Allison Mack was arrested for her role in recruiting women into the NXIVM organization, as well as charges of identity fraud and money laundering. She eventually pleaded guilty to racketeering and racketeering conspiracy, leading to a three-year prison sentence. After serving 21 months, Mack was released in July 2023.
Following her release, Allison Mack found love with former neo-nazi Frank Meeink and remarried in June 2025. The couple had a small, intimate ceremony with around 40 guests. Mack is now focused on moving forward in a positive direction in her life and is grateful for the love and hope she has found with Meeink.
