It’s been quite the year for the Mormon Wives but they’re finally set to get back to work.
Hulu has confirmed that The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives will resume production on Season 5 after the fallout from the Taylor Frankie Paul furor.
However, the Disney streamer did not specify when this would be the case.
It comes ahead of a big reality event – Get Real – for Disney, which takes place tomorrow, Wednesday April 22, so Disney clearly wants to get this question out of the way ahead of a glut of announcements.
Filming on the series, which is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions, paused earlier this year as a result of allegations of domestic assault against Paul.
That move came days after Season 4 premiered on the platform.
The show stars Paul, Jessi Draper, Jen Affleck, Miranda Hope, Whitney Leavitt, Mikayla Matthews, Mayci Neeley and Layla Taylor, who are also all exec producers now.
It’s not clear whether Paul, who is dealing with the fallout of numerous allegations against her from her ex-boyfriend Dakota Mortensen, and the fact that her season of The Bachelorette was shelved, will return to production with the rest of the women.
Domestic charges against Paul were dropped after she was seen on a video throwing a metal stool at Mortensen. She recently said she’d be “sharing the process” of healing.
There’s been plenty of other drama going on in Utah since filming shut down including Draper kissing people she probably shouldn’t, which will be a boon when cameras do finally get up and running.
The series is produced by Jeff Jenkins Productions in association with 3BMG and Walt Disney Television Alternative. It also exec produced by Jeff Jenkins, Russell Jay-Staglik, Andrea Metz, Dan Cerny at Jeff Jenkins Productions. Ross Weintraub, Reinout Oerlemans at 3BMG, Lisa Filipelli, Georgia Berger, Danielle Pistotnik at Select Entertainment. Melissa Bidwell, Robin O’Neal and Stephanie Weinberg are co-exec producers.
