Production for Season 5 of “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” has been paused due to an incident involving Taylor Frankie Paul and her ex-boyfriend, Dakota Mortensen. However, it seems that Hulu might be working on a new spin-off series involving one of the original members of Mom-Tok.
PEOPLE reports that a spinoff show is “in the works,” as the “plan is for it to begin shooting this spring and premiere in the fall.” The show will be set in Orange County, with Jen Affleck set to star in the show alongside nine new cast members.

‘Secret Lives of Mormon Wives’ Stars Speak Out
Following ABC’s decision to cancel Taylor Frankie Paul’s season of “The Bachelorette,” as well as the new information that has continued to come out regarding the reality television star, two cast members from “The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” bravely spoke out.
Layla Taylor shared an emotional statement on her Instagram story, writing, “My personal history as a survivor makes it impossible for me to stay silent. I stand firmly against domestic violence in any form.”
“I am keeping her children in my thoughts, hoping for their safety above all else,” she concluded.
Her fellow “Secret Lives of Mormon Wives” co-star Miranda McWhorter also posted a message on her Instagram story.
“I’ve honestly been a little at a loss for words trying to process this all. Everything has been really heavy to see. Domestic violence and abuse of any kind is something I take very seriously,” she wrote. “As a human, and especially a mother, I cannot support that kind of behavior. My heart is with the children in this and I hope they’re safe, supported, and surrounded by love.”
