When is the inaugural season "The Secret Lives of Mormon Women" was released on Hulu in September, the cast had no idea how quickly they would become popular and that they would be back for a second season so soon!

The show, which follows the lives of a group of Utah Mormon moms - Taylor Frankie Paul, Whitney Leavitt, Layla Taylor, Demi Engemann, Mayci Neeley, Jennifer Affleck, Jessi Ngatikaura and Mikayla Matthews - garnered so much attention during its first season that a second season is already in production, which means fans don't have too much time to wait for new episodes.

The two stars of the show, Taylor Frankie Paul and Whitney Leavittrecently shared their thoughts on how the show has taken off so quickly and gave a little insight into what fans can expect in season two.

Paul recently chatted with PEOPLE about how her life has changed since the Hulu reality show debuted in early September.

"Sometimes I'm speechless. I just didn't expect the show to be so good," she said. "I also didn't expect another season and for it to be approved so quickly. Obviously I'm so happy and grateful, but it's so surprising. You never know."

Paul told PEOPLE she remembers thinking the show was "going to be okay."

"I remember thinking, 'This is going to be OK. It should do well, considering we all have a story that people haven't heard about, and we all have a following,'" she said. "I didn't know how well it was going to go, so it was shocking how it happened."

Unaccustomed to filming the way the series was done, Paul called the experience "cool" and said "You see yourself in a different way that you're not used to."

For Leavitt, who was labeled by many fans as the villain of the first season, she found filming the show to be "a little bit like therapy" as she dealt with a personal issue.

Being recognized by fans while out and about was something the cast had to learn to get used to quickly.

“I’m still adjusting because it happened so fast, but I love it when people come up and say hello and ask for a picture,” Leavitt told PEOPLE. "I had one kid, a college student had me sign his BYU ID and it was probably the best thing ever. I was like, 'Oh, yeah, sure. I'll sign your BYU ID.'"

Paul added: "And then the people that are in your messages reach them, just unexpected people that you fell in love with, we all fell in love. That was really cool to see. And sometimes I just forget that people are out there watching that is a nationwide thing, to be honest, I still don't think I get it.

And while both Paul and Leavitt said they were surprised at how quickly the show became popular; they're excited and ready for what's to come in Season 2.

"I don't think any of us thought it would be as big as it has been and will continue to be," Levitt said. "It was something we all wanted to do and we're so grateful for how big it actually got and how big I know it's only going to get bigger from here. That was my biggest surprise, a thousand percent."

Leavitt said that the second season will have a lot of conversations and confessions. She even called it all "therapeutic".

Don't have Hulu and want to see what MomTok is all about? The show will make its debut on ABC on January 27, 2025.

The reality show will be part of ABC's winter programming lineup and will air each of the eight episodes of the first season on Monday nights at 10:00 PM ET starting January 27th.

The second season, which is currently filming, will be released on Hulu in the spring of 2025.

While many content creators are on TikTok share the ongoing drama between moms MomTok, Stephanie Tleyji strives to keep everyone informed of all Mormon mom dramas with regular updates.

A recent TikTok video shares some new updates about the moms and the drama that follows them. She began talking about a recent trip with the cast.

"Looks like some of the MomToks are on a little road in New Orleans," she said as she showed photos of some moms. "Taylor Frankie Paul and Jen Affleck don't seem to be on the road to acting."

She then talked about Affleck and what's going on with her regarding the second season.

“I had someone text me that Jen was signed for five seasons, that she couldn't end the show, because it came from a credible source. She told me who the source was, but I can't tell you because they asked and I won't," she continued. "But if the source is what they're saying, then yes, it's credible."

If fans missed the show after the first season binge, all they have to do is check out the girls' social media pages. That seems to be where the drama lives while they are busy filming the second season.

Paul, who hosted the recent CMAs, called out her "Mormon Wives" co-stars online when they appeared to ignore her social media posts about her big moment. Not long after that drama broke out, one of the women involved in Paul's silent swing controversy decided to share her side of the story in a multi-part TikTok series, leading to more drama.

And then there were some online accusations and heated words between Paul and colleague Demi Engemann that lasted for days.

So, if you're hooked on the show and can't wait for new episodes, be sure to check out MomTok on their TikTok and Instagram pages.

The first season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives is currently streaming on Hulu. The second season will be released in the spring of 2025.
