The cast of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” are all over TikTok — but will they be returning to the Hulu show?
The Hulu docuseries’ finale ended with several cliffhangers, from uneasy relationship statuses to who, exactly, would stay in the world of Mormon #MomTok.
Here’s what the cast of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” has said about a potential second season.
Has Hulu renewed ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?’
The streaming service hasn’t given the green light for a second season just yet. TODAY.com has reached out to Hulu for comment.
What have the #MomTok stars said about Season 2?
Several members of the #MomTok crew have expressed their desires for a second season since the show’s premiere.
In an interview with Decider, Taylor Frankie Paul said she’s not sure if there will be a second season but is hopeful.
“We would obviously love it and I think both of us would be on board,” she said, referring to her co-star Mayci Neeley, who was also in the interview.
Mayci told Decider her approach for Season 2 would be different. She said she’d “probably be more opinionated and assertive” in “certain situations that I think I held back on.”
Jen Affleck, who was contemplating moving to New York and leaving #MomTok in the season finale, spoke to Us Weekly about her future with the show — and implied there would be a future.
“In order to make the right decision for me and my family, I really had to take a step back and ask myself, ‘How am I going to move forward and what’s best for us?’ You’ll just have to wait for Season 2 to see what happens,” she said.
While chatting with People, Mikayla Matthews said she’d like to be featured more prominently in a potential second season.
“Me and my husband are very witty and playful with each other.” she said. “I think he’s the funniest person I know, but he’s rarely on the show.”
Layla Taylor told Distractify she hopes some “relationships can get mended” if the show returns for another season.
“Hopefully relationships can just continue to evolve,” she said.
Many cast members ended the season by unfollowing former #MomTok member Whitney Leavitt on social media.
While chatting with Decider, Whitney opened up about her break from #MomTok and a potential return to reality TV.
“It’s not like I can’t not be in a room with everyone — like, I can do that. But as far as, like, the future of it, I really want to watch the first season before making that decision,” she said.
Whitney has since posted video sharing her perspective on Season 1 on social media. “Huh that’s not how I remember it,” she captioned a TikTok video. She likened the show to “exploiting her life.“
What would Season 2 be about?
Several cliffhangers in the Season 1 finale left viewers wanting more. A potential Season 2 would likely provide updates on the following topics and more:
- Taylor Frankie Paul’s rocky relationship with Dakota Mortensen, which she spoke about with TODAY.com.
- Jennifer Affleck’s marriage troubles and her potential move to New York. See an update on Jen and Zac Affleck’s relationship here.
- Whitney Leavitt’s departure from the group.
- The ongoing repercussions of the soft swinging scandal.
Who would return for Season 2?
Eight #MomTok influencers were featured in the first season of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.”
With Jen’s potential move to New York City and Whitney’s break from the group, it’s not certain they would return.
