AS Seeking Sister Wife season three premieres the McGee family will not be returning after the loss of it’s patriarch Bernie McGee.
Seeking Sister Wife star Paige McGee has since made serious allegations accusing her brother of causing the death of her husband.
Bernie MGee died on June 15, 2019 at the age of 41.
The McGee family joined the Seeking Sister Wife cast for season two in 2018.
The season followed as Bernie and his wife Paige began to explore the idea of becoming polygamous.
The McGee’s had five children when they came onto the show and were hoping to have more children. However, Paige was unable to have any more children.
They were hoping that adding another partner would allow them to have more children.
As the couple began exploring their options, Paige admitted her jealousy lead the McGee’s to halt their search for a sister wife.
It is unclear whether or not the McGee’s were planning to return for season three of Seeking Sister Wife before Bernie’s death.
TLC put out a statement saying: “Our hearts go out to the McGee family following the loss of husband and father, Bernie McGee. Our thoughts are with them during this difficult time.”
Bernie suffered a heat stroke and heart attack while riding his motorcycle in Jackson, Mississippi.
When he began to feel uncomfortable, he called Paige to come get him but he passed away before Paige made it to his location.
Paige has made claims that Bernie’s heart attack was caused by the stress put on the family by her brother and mother.
She took to Facebook to make her accusations saying: “He did this! Patrick’s constant lies and attacks against us caused this.”
“Bernie has been under so much stress and the stress of going to court this coming Wednesday with fear of 1 year in jail wore on Bernie.”
“Bernie was so upset the day we were arrested because our sons had to watch us being taken away.”
“Patrick Marble… YOU KILLED MY HUSBAND AND I HOPE YOU BURN IN HELL.. And you better stay the HELL away from me and my family.”
Bernie and Paige were in the midst of dealing with some financial worries, family drama, and legal troubles when he passed away.
When they first joined the show, they were recovering from losing their house to a fire.
Then in March 2019, Paige and Bernie were arrested and charged with stalking after Paige’s mother, Nicki Smith, and brother, Patrick Marble, claimed that they feared for their lives accusing the McGee’s of telephone harassment.
The McGee’s were released the same day but were distressed that their children watched them be arrested and taken away.
Seeking Sister Wife season 3 premieres on TLC and Discovery Plus March 22, 2021.
To go back and catch up on the McGee’s story you can find season two of the show on TLC.com or Amazon Prime Video.
