Bad Sisters, the hit Apple TV+ dark-comedy series, will return for a second season on Wednesday 13th November, following a two-year wait from the first season, released in August 2022.

The first season of Bad Sisters followed the lives of the Garvey sisters; Eva, Grace, Ursula, Bibi, and Becka before and after the death of Grace's abusive husband, JP, who the Dublin-based sisters vowed to murder.

We may have found out who killed JP, and watched as the Garvey sisters managed to get away with murder at the end of season one, however, the second series is set to take a turn as their "past truths resurface".

Bad Sisters season 2: Plot explained

The final episode of Bad Sisters season one wrapped up nicely with Eva, Grace, Ursula, Bibi, and Becka coming to an agreement with Matthew and Thomas Claffin to keep the secret of JP's mysterious death.

We also finally found out that it was in fact Grace who killed her husband, JP, despite the entire series following the other sister's plans to end his life.

So, what do we know about the storyline for the second season of Bad Sisters? Well, the Apple TV+ bio for the season gives us some idea of what to expect. It reads: "Two years after the 'accidental death' of Grace’s abusive husband, the close-knit Garvey sisters may have moved on, but when past truths resurface, the ladies are thrust back into the spotlight, suspicions are at an all-time high, lies are told, secrets revealed and the sisters are forced to work out who they can trust."

In the trailer for the second season, we can see that Grace remarries following the death of JP, with her sisters all blissfully happy watching her move on from her abusive relationship, however, it does not appear to last long.

A new character is set to enter the scene for the second season, Angelica (played by Fiona Shaw), who moves in with her brother Roger, Grace's neighbour and the man who helped her cover up the murder of JP. From what we can tell, she's set on exposing Grace and the rest of the Garvey sister for what they did.
