At Ari’s request, Hazel and Bree welcome a new friend, Jayla, into their clique.

Tracy Oliver, who created the series (based on the 1996 film of the same name), said in a statement, “First Wives Club is for, about and by Black women. We’re excited to bring fans another season that continues to show and pay homage to the beauty, pain and joy of real, grown, successful women of color living their lives and the strength that sisterhood shares. Forget hot girl summer, it’s going to be a hot WIVES summer.”
