Disney has announced an expansion of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" franchise with a new series set in Orange County, California. Titled "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County," the show will feature a fresh ensemble of young mothers navigating a community where their faith is deeply intertwined with their identity. Online personalities Aspyn Ovard, known for her YouTube presence and recent public discussions about her divorce and sexuality, and Bobbi Althoff are set to lead the cast.
The series will introduce dynamic young mothers whose beliefs define their lives, creating a backdrop for significant personal and social conflicts. The official logline suggests a narrative tension between those defending tradition and others embracing change, promising the revelation of scandals and secrets that will alter family and friendship dynamics. This new group of influencers aims to create their own version of #MomTok.
Notably, the cast of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County" is entirely new, with no members from the original "Mormon Wives" series participating. The flagship show had recently paused production following a domestic violence incident involving its lead, Taylor Frankie Paul. Despite the absence of original cast members, potential cameos from the area have been hinted at. The spinoff is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions.
