Get ready for a brand-new season of Escaping Polygamy! Season three will premiere next month, and it will follow three sisters as they help others escape a life of polygamy.
A&E released a press statement detailing the new season. Check that out below.
“A&E Network’s original docuseries Escaping Polygamy returns for a powerful third season following Andrea, Jessica and Shanell, three sisters who escaped polygamy in their youth and now devote their lives to helping others get out and successfully begin new lives away from the only world they have ever known. Season three premieres Monday, August 7 at 10PM ET/PT on A&E.
Andrea, Jessica and Shanell daringly left the Kingston clan, a polygamous group based in Salt Lake City, Utah, known as “The Order.” Since escaping the polygamous cult, the sisters have devoted their lives to helping friends and strangers alike do the same. The path out of polygamy is not an easy one for those who choose to leave, from the often dangerous initial escape, to the struggle to adjust to a life isolated from their friends and family still in polygamy. As more polygamous sects become aware of the girls’ mission, these challenges have become even greater. Groups have tightened the hold over their followers making successful escapes more dangerous.
This season, the many people who enlist help from the girls include a son of powerful FLDS prophet Warren Jeffs who leaves the religion to find his mother who he has been separated from for most of his life; a mother hoping to find her daughters who have been hidden within an elite group in the FLDS community; and a young girl who desperately wants to rescue the love of her life in a dangerous mission that further exposes the dark and treacherous realities of polygamy.
Escaping Polygamy is produced for A&E Network by RIVR Media. Executive producers for RIVR Media are Dee Haslam, Rob Lundgren, and Lori Stryer. Jennifer Wagman serves as executive producer for A&E Network.”
Are you a fan of this series? Will you watch season three? Tell us what you think.
I Love this show!!! they help so many woman an men. Get out of that Sick Lifestyle. this show is aweaome. I wish i could help them myself. cant wait for season 4.
Im obsessed with this show.
I wish It was on every night. I thank God for the courage of these girls and for the security that helps them. May God keep watching over you and may the young ladies and men realize the truth.
I think it’s shameful, that something like this could still happen in the United States of America!!!… Given the “Me Too” movement! I’m sure this mentality is prolific in all forms of government! Women, girls, children are so objectified & abused! It’s a normal thing in Arab & other countries! I never thought I’d see the day when it’ll be normal and legal here!
This show needs to come back to a&e. I watched this with my fiance. We looked forward to watching this every week.
Love watching this show and will watch when it comes back to a&e. Thank you
How many episodes are in Season 3. Surely there must be more than 4. I was wishing it would be on for a long time because these girls are doing such a great thing. And risking their own lives to do it.
Online shows S3 E5 aired on 9-11 but am unable to find it. We lost cable due to Irma and missed it. Seems strange that only 5 shows were shown this year. Did someone in power cause the series to be cancelled?
I haven’t been able to find this program on A&E on any night. Is it still on?
Donna same here… 4 episodes and then nothing? 🙁
I love and look forward to watching this show.please keep this show going.
Can’t wait for the new season! I hope everybody stays safe,
