The eight-episode docuseries Prison Wives Club will debut on Lifetime on Tuesday, October 28, 2014 at 10pm ET/PT. The new series will follow four women who are married to convicted felons and how that affects all aspects of their lives. The hour-long series shows how having a spouse who’s a convict changes the women’s relationships with their friends and family members and how the wives have come together to support each other while they wait out their husbands’ sentences.

Details on the four wives, courtesy of Lifetime:

Growing up, Kate developed a penchant for bad boys, and after her husband‘s incarceration, she was abandoned by some of her closest friends.

Jhemini tries to be the perfect prison wife, though she has yet to reveal her husband’s situation to her conservative family and struggles with the double life she leads.

Ana met her husband through a website and secretly wed him, believing he was in prison for life. With parole a suddenly new possibility, Ana must finally tell her family the truth and face the consequences of her decision.

LaQuisha, who has not yet consummated her marriage to her convict husband, is raising a young daughter as a single parent.
