Disney Greenlights 'The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County' Spinoff with Aspyn Ovard and Bobbi Althoff

Disney has greenlit a new spinoff of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" set in Orange County, California, led by online personalities Aspyn Ovard and Bobbi Althoff.

The new series, titled "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County", will follow a fresh group of dynamic young mothers in Orange County. According to the official logline, their community is defined by beliefs that shape not just their religion but their very identity.

Meet the Cast

• Aspyn Ovard, a long-time YouTuber, has gained recent public attention following her divorce from Parker Ferris. She has since been exploring her sexuality and may be familiar to fans of the original series after appearing at a Halloween party in Season 2.
• Bobbi Althoff, another key figure in the spinoff, joins Ovard as a central cast member.
• The series also stars Avery Woods, Salomé Andrea, McCall DaPron (sister of Mayci Neeley), Chandler Higginson, Ashleigh Pease, and Madison Bontempo.

Series Logline and Themes

"While some defend their way of life, fighting against modernity, others embrace change, becoming a platform to disrupt the status quo. Scandals and secrets will be revealed, facades will crumble, and families and friendships will change forever on both sides of the battlefield as this group of strong, game-changing influencers comes together to build their answer to #MomTok."

Notably, the main cast for "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives: Orange County" does not include any members from the original series. The flagship show is set to resume production after a temporary halt due to a domestic violence dispute involving lead Taylor Frankie Paul. This incident also resulted in Paul’s season of "The Bachelorette" being pulled from ABC’s lineup.

However, several cast members from the original series have been spotted in Orange County, leaving open the possibility of cameos in the spinoff.
