MomTok is facing its toughest test yet. The group at the center of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” will confront domestic violence allegations, divorce and more drama in its fifth season.
In the months since the Hulu reality show’s fourth season premiered, the cast’s scandals reached a fever pitch with the cancelation of Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of “The Bachelorette.”
ABC scrapped the season of “The Bachelorette” days before it was set to premiere in March after an alleged domestic violence incident involving Paul and her ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen. Both Paul and Mortensen leveled allegations against each other and were investigated by police, who ultimately declined to press charges.
The fallout, which occurred during the filming of “Mormon Wives,” led to a temporary pause in production on Season 5. Now, with the premiere of the new season, the situation will be discussed in new detail.
“There’s so much stuff the public doesn’t know,” Mayci Neeley said in the Season 5 trailer.
At just five episodes, Season 5 is significantly shorter than past seasons. The first season consisted of eight episodes; Seasons 2-4 each had 10 episodes, plus one reunion episode each for Seasons 2 and 3.
“The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” is available to stream on Hulu.
The platform offers subscriptions ranging from $11.99 a month to $18.99 a month for standard streaming plans. Other packages that include both streaming and live television cost between $ 89.99 and $99.99 a month.
In addition to Paul and Neeley, the rest of the Season 5 cast includes Jen Affleck, Jessi Draper, Layla Taylor, Mikayla Matthews, Miranda Hope and Whitney Leavitt. Leavitt, whose Broadway run will play out on Season 5, previously announced that the season would be her last. Source: USA Today
