Bet+ has done it again, and this time, Tyler Perry delivers a show that feels like a page from my own magazine. Divorced Sistas is not only entertainment, it is a mirror. A bold, beautiful and violent honest reflection of life is like women starting with the kind of heart that breaks your soul open. This series follows five women, each at different stages of treatment, all connected by one thing they never asked for: divorce. But it’s not just about the end of the wedding. This is the principle of freedom, identity and power.
Letoya Luckett shines perfectly as Rasheda, the ready -made and polished wife of the shepherd, whose world begins to unfold when the church drama turns into a real life betrayal. The pain in her eyes, the silence in her smile – you feel it. You know this kind of quiet suffering. Then there is Geneva, he played wildly by Khadeen Indréa. He is a sharp lawyer who knows how to win in court but is blind from a different kind of battle at home. When her daughter begins to reveal unpleasant truths about her husband, Geneva does not collapse. Repeats again.
Naomi is this friend who speaks what everyone else thinks. Porscha Coleman brings fire and vulnerability to a woman who has money to the bank, but wounds that have not been cured. Her ex is already dating to a young man, and the sting to see him with a white woman is something that the show does not avoid. It hits. Cuts. But it also begins conversations they need to have. Tiffany, played by Briana Price, is the trusted friend we all support, the one who carries the burden of everyone while drowning quietly by his own. And then there is Bridgette, the calm voice of logic, which holds its own secrets and reminds us that powerful friends also need control.
From the first episode, I was hooked. Not only from Dramawhich, believe me, it’s top, but by honesty. This show is not cane cane what the divorce for black women looks like. He examines the wounds of the church, the spiritual burden, the single parent, the guilt, the anger and the unexpected joy of being found again. There is a scene where Rasheda treats the church from a woman who had a case with her husband and let me tell you, silence in the office said everything. This moment is not just about the scandal. This is the cost of appearances and the price of protecting someone else’s image, while yours collapses.

What makes divorced Sistas stand out is how it captures the real pace of female friendship. Group energy conversation, the means of the day, the harsh truths that are delivered with love and the kind of support that says, “I have you”, even when life does not. These women are the soft landing and safe space of each other and in a world that expects to be strong all the time, that the fraternity feels like a balsam of treatment.
Watching this show feels like a cure with your best friends. It reminds you that you are not alone, that starting does not mean that you fail and that sometimes you walk away is the most braver choice you can make. Tyler Perry hit something deep with it, and the cast brings everything to life with such authenticity that makes you forget that you are watching fiction. It is for the woman who had to understand her alone, take the pieces and dare to dream again. If you ever had to discover yourself after loss, this show is your story called through someone else’s voice.
So if you are looking for something that feeds your soul, it makes you laugh, it makes you go crazy and make you feel like you see, that’s it. Bet+ gave us something special. Something therapeutic. Something real. And I, for one, will watch every episode with a magazine in one hand and a glass of wine in the other.
The divorced Sistas premiered Monday, June 9, 2025, debut at Bet shortly after the 2025 bets. The following day, June 10, it was available to be broadcast exclusively on Bet+. If you’ve watched episodes, tell me what you think!
