BET+ has officially greenlit Tyler Perry’s Divorced Sistas, a new original series expanding the beloved Sistas universe. Premiering June 9—the same night as the 2025 BET Awards—the series continues Perry’s legacy of spotlighting Black women’s stories with honesty, heart, and humor. This marks the first title to launch under Tyler Perry’s newly expanded, multi-year deal with BET Media Group, one of the most significant partnerships between a Black creator and a media company to date.
“Divorced Sistas is a story of resilience and the power of female friendship,” said Perry. “It is my hope that audiences will fall in love with these dynamic characters, and that they will be able to explore their own personal truths about healing and love in the process. I’m excited to launch this brand new show, and proud to do it on BET’s biggest night of the year and in their 45th year of programming!”
Created, written, and directed by Perry, Divorced Sistas centers on five close friends—Rasheda, Geneva, Naomi, Tiffany, and Bridgette—as they navigate the complicated realities of divorce, relationships, and rediscovering themselves. While bonded by heartbreak, their greatest trials come from within their own circle, forcing them to confront loyalty and sisterhood in unexpected ways.
