The new sizzling BET+ original series Divorced Sistas, created, written, and directed by the prolific Tyler Perry, debuted on June 9. The series, a spinoff of BET's immensely popular drama, Sistas, stars LeToya Luckett and follows five close friends — Rasheda, Geneva, Naomi, Tiffany, and Bridgette — as they navigate life, love, and the challenges that come with divorce, marriage, and dating. As they lean on each other through heartbreak and healing, their biggest test comes from within their own circle, challenging their loyalty, character and true bond of sisterhood. The first season will consist of eight episodes, with new episodes released weekly through the midseason finale on Thursday, July 24.

 

Boasting an impressive ensemble cast, the series is the second spinoff of the Sistas franchise, following the success of the hit dramedy Zatima, which premiered in 2022 under Perry's expanded multiyear content partnership with BET Media Group. Perry's original series, Sistas, has been a monster hit for BET, first premiering in 2019 and carrying eight seasons.
