After two intense seasons defined by scandal, complicated relationships, and emotional fallout, Tell Me Lies returns with a confident Season 3 premiere. While it makes an effort to address a few lingering threads from last season’s cliffhanger, the series quickly opens the door to new conflicts, deepening the emotional stakes rather than closing them.

Just as viewers begin to settle after the first three episodes, the show signals that more upheaval lies ahead. True to its nature, Tell Me Lies continues to explore chaos not as excess, but as a catalyst, one that Season 3 is only just beginning to unleash.

With tensions running high, the gang in Tell Me Lies is back, dropping three new episodes all at once. The fourth episode is set to air on Hulu on January 20th, following which Tell Me Lies will follow a weekly release schedule.  Episode 5 of the Hulu series will release on January 27, with episode 6 coming in on February 3, Episode 7 on February 10, and then the finale on February 17.  The surprise episode drop mirrors the dramatic consequences of a college romance gone wrong; except it has gone right for the show in terms of audience ratings.

Tell Me Lies has an impressive 80% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, making its mark in the college romance genre. This intense ride continues until the finale airs in February. As the remaining episodes show up weekly, Steehna and Lucy’s relationship spirals into an even darker and more toxic one, a recurrent theme in the show.

Based on Carola Lovering’s novel of the same name, the series has never failed to show chaos. But while the drama keeps escalating on screen, things are calmer and far more romantic off-screen.

Fans of Tell Me Lies already know that co-stars Grace Van Patten and Jackson White are dating in real life, but season three brought another surprise from the cast. Sonia Mena and Spencer House, who play the on-and-off couple Pippa and Wrigley, have been dating for several years. The relationship was revealed ahead of the season three premiere.

This was when the show’s makeup artist, Jenny Lin, mentioned it during an interview, and it was later confirmed by a source to People magazine. They are not the only real couples connected to the series. Branden Cook, who plays Evan, is in a relationship with Katherine Hughes, who appeared in season two as Molly, Evan’s brief love interest, and the two announced their engagement in October 2025.

The real-life romances behind the scenes tell a far happier story. But with more heartbreak, betrayals, and shocking turns still ahead, Tell Me Lies is as addictive as ever and will soon return to screen with new episodes.
