Based on the best-selling novel of the same name by May Cobb, the drama follows the wide-eyed Sophie O’Neill (Brittany Snow), who makes the move from the East Coast to a small Texan town, where she's drawn into the dangerous world of socialite Margo Banks (Malin Åkerman) and her elite clique.
Chaos soon ensues as Sophie's life becomes consumed by obsession, secrets, lies and murder.
The show, which Netflix acquired from Lionsgate Television, was a huge hit after debuting on the streamer in the US back in July, and a second season was given the official green light back in September.
But for now, where can fans in the UK catch season 1? Read on for everything you need to know about how to watch the thriller on this side of the pond.

UK fans can watch the first season of The Hunting Wives on ITVX, after all eight episodes were released on the platform on Saturday 27th December 2025.
The Hunting Wives initially premiered on Netflix in the US on 21st July, having previously been greenlit by Starz when it was part of Lionsgate.
Of course, both companies have now separated, with Lionsgate Television having negotiated the acquisition of The Hunting Wives in the process. This is said to be on account of Lionsgate envisioning a multi-season run for The Hunting Wives rather than Starz's vision for it as a limited series.
According to Deadline, "Lionsgate has sold the series in 10 additional territories, including the UK, Germany, France, Italy and India, where it will launch soon."
Sources revealed to Deadline that Netflix is not the buyer in any of these additional territories, underlining the fact that The Hunting Wives will be coming to the UK but on another streaming platform or channel. Thankfully, it has now found a home on ITVX here in the UK.
What is The Hunting Wives about?

The eight-part series centres on Brittany Snow's Sophie, who makes the move from the East Coast to a small town in Texas with her husband and son. Her husband Graham manages to bag a job with one of the town's leading oil businessmen Jed Banks, with the couple keen to impress Graham's new employer and their rich friends.
Thankfully, Sophie hits it off with Jed's wife Margo, who is the woman that everyone knows in town and leader of titular friendship group, The Hunting Wives. Spending their time together to party, shoot guns and hunt, Sophie soon finds herself swept under the current of the group as it becomes clear what lengths Margo really goes to in her downtime.
But when the body of a teenage girl winds up in the woods, Sophie is soon put in the line of suspicion – but did she do it?
