‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Lands 20-Episode Renewal After Taylor Frankie Paul Drama
Season 5 will reportedly air later this year for only five episodes following the star’s latest controversy The post ‘The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Lands 20-Episode Renewal After Taylor Frankie Paul Drama appeared first on TheWrap .
Hulu has extended the run of the reality series "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" for 20 additional episodes, marking the conclusion of its fifth season. The truncated fifth season will consist of just five episodes, rather than the conventional ten. The abrupt end to Season 5 was due to the release of a video capturing Taylor Frankie Paul's violent altercation with her ex-partner, Dakota Mortenson.
This video precipitated an investigation into Paul and her relationship. Though the domestic violence allegations against Paul have been dismissed, the controversy prompted Whitney Leavitt's departure from the series, citing her desire to pursue her burgeoning theater and film career, particularly after her successful Broadway run of "Chicago."
Following Hulu's pattern of renewing the show in pairs, the renewal extends to Season 6 and 7. The upcoming fifth season was intended to delve into Paul's life post "The Bachelorette," a show which never aired due to the viral video. While details regarding the cast members' futures remain undisclosed, Taylor and Paul have confirmed they are actively filming Season 6.
