The Talent Managers Who Brought TikTok’s ‘Mormon Moms’ to Hulu
I’ve been binging Hulu’s new reality TV series, “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives,” which follows the lives of eight young TikTok-famous Mormon moms who get caught up in a scandal where some of them hooked up with each other’s husbands.
Even though that drama played out in real time on TikTok two years ago, the show has become a huge hit. Hulu announced it was the streamer’s most-watched premiere of a reality show so far this year, beating out the latest premiere of “The Kardashians.” But the path to get the series produced and picked up wasn’t easy. It took nearly four years from the inception of the idea until now, according to two of the executive producers, Lisa Filipelli and Danielle Pistotnik.
