Hulu’s “The Secret Life Of Mormon Wives” Renewed For A Second Season
Last month, Disney released a brand new reality series called “The Secret Life of Mormon Wives”, which tells the story of the scandalous world of a group of Mormon mom influencers implodes when they get caught in the midst of a swinging sex scandal that makes international headlines. Now, their sisterhood is shook to its core. Faith, friendship and reputations are all on the line. Will #MomTok be able to survive and continue to give the rulebook a run for its money, or will this group fall from grace?
The series has been a huge success for Disney, quickly becoming the most watched unscripted show on Hulu in the United States and on Disney+ internationally, beating out “The Kardashians”.
Since it has been a big hit, it shouldn’t come as a big surprise to hear that Disney has announced a second season is now in production and will return to our screens in the spring of 2025.
Hulu has commissioned another 20 episodes of the show, so it’s unclear if that means the next season will have twice as many episodes as the first or if it has been actually renewed for a second and third season. Either way, there’s going to be plenty more scandal to enjoy.
Rob Mills, Executive Vice President, Unscripted and Alternative Entertainment, Walt Disney Television, revealed in a statement:
“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!”
The series is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions (‘Bling Empire,’ ‘The McBee Dynasty,’ ‘My Unorthodox Life’), in association with 3BMG and Walt Disney Television Alternative . Executive producers are Jeff Jenkins, Russell Jay-Staglik, Andrea Metz, Brandon Beck and Eric Monsky at Jeff Jenkins Productions, Ross Weintraub and Reinout Oerlemans at 3BMG, and Danielle Pistotnik, Georgia Berger, and Lisa Filipelli at Select Management Group.
You can watch the first season of “The Secret Life of Mormon Wives” on Hulu and Hulu On Disney+ in the United States and on Disney+ internationally.
Roger’s Take: I’m not surprised by this renewal one bit! When the news came out that it was the most-watched unscripted show across Disney+ and Hulu, plus it was also trending in the top three items on Disney+, it was going to be obvious Disney knew it had a hit on its hands. Heck, in the UK, the show had zero promotion before it came out on Disney+, but once it was out and people were checking it out, they quickly started promoting it, to take advantage of the buzz about it. It might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but these types of shows pull in a large audience because there are a lot of people who do like it. (I have to put up my hand, too!)
