Hulu hasn’t said how it will dole out all 20 of the new episodes, but the first batch is due to premiere in the spring of 2025. Reports of a renewal for the show began circulating on Wednesday.
Secret Lives revolves around a group of Utah-based content creators — Taylor Frankie Paul, Demi Engemann, Jen Affleck, Jessi Ngatikaura, Layla Taylor, Mayci Neeley, Mikayla Matthews and Whitney Leavitt — who collectively call themselves MomTok. The first season follows the fallout after Paul announced in a TikTok livestream that she and her husband were divorcing after “soft swinging” with other Mormon couples.
“There was a philosophical question raised in season one, which was ‘Can #MomTok survive this?’ The answer unequivocally is yes! Spring 2025 get your dirty sodas ready,” said Rob Mills, executive vp unscripted and alternative entertainment at Walt Disney Television.
The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions in association with 3BMG and Walt Disney Television Alternative. The executive producers are Jeff Jenkins, Russell Jay-Staglik, Andrea Metz, Brandon Beck and Eric Monsky of Jeff Jenkins Productions; Ross Weintraub and Reinout Oerlemans of 3BMG; and Danielle Pistotnik, Georgia Berger and Lisa Filipelli of Select Entertainment.
