Holy Family has just arrived at Netflix as part of the various thrillers that the service has been releasing in recent days. The series comes from the mind of Manolo Caro, who created, among others, the series A Casa das Flores. In addition, it has names like Najwa Nimri and Alba Flores, who were in La Casa de Papel.
Although all these ingredients already guarantee a good mix, Holy Family it has an interesting plot. The series is a Spanish drama thriller that questions the definition of motherhood. Gloria lives in an upscale neighborhood in Madrid. She takes her son, Hugo, everywhere with her, and her wealthy friends keep her company.
She is an artist who prefers not to bring anyone into her home. As strange as that sounded, Gloria wanted to be careful with the people she brought home. After all, she was hiding a secret that could ruin her life.
The first season of the series ends entirely in the open, indicating a continuation. Exactly for this reason, fans question whether the 2nd season of Sagrada Familiait will happen. Well, here are all the official information released by Netflix.
The 2nd season of Holy Family
The thriller has just premiered on Netflix and like all new series on the service, season 2 of Holy Family has not yet been confirmed. However, there is nothing to worry about. It happens that, generally, when a series debuts with its first season on the service, it goes through an evaluation period.
In this period, Netflix is able to gather relevant data, which together, determine whether or not a series will win a sequel. In turn, audience, relevance and citations on social networks, positive reviews and how long the series was watched are decisive factors.
At the time of writing this article, the series is among the most watched in the world, according to Flixpatrol. However, in no country does the series lead the TOP 10. Its best position is the 2nd position in Spain. On the other hand, in important markets like the United States, the series doesn’t even appear among the most watched.
However, we believe that Season 2 of Holy Family will be confirmed soon by the service. After all, several Spanish thrillers were released in the catalog and most of them – if not all – were renewed. Netflix will officially speak out in the coming days, confirming, whether it’s renewal or cancellation.

It all revolves around when the series will be renewed. Therefore, any prediction that is informed is nothing more than mere speculation. On the other hand, by analyzing the production of the first season, we can suggest when the premiere might take place.
Netflix announced the series in late 2020, but the series did not immediately go into production. Filming began in August 2021 in Madrid and only 1 year later, the series debuted on the service. Therefore, we believe that the 2nd season of Holy Familywill be released between October and November 2023.
NOTE: This article will be updated as Netflix releases news about the series.
The end of season 1
The first season of the series ends openly. In the final episode, we see that Gloria is afraid of losing control of her lies. After all, it took years to carefully construct the facts. However, even as she surrounded everything her family did, some things got out of hand.
One of the examples is that, she had no idea that her daughter was dating someone from a conservatory. Gloria never wanted Mariana to play the piano, fearing that someone would recognize her or that she might be questioned for her talent.
After some confusion, Marcos calls Aitana to live in his house in Marbella. This would be a safe place for her to stay and she could be the person she wanted to be. Aitana accepts her proposal in Holy FamilyThe. She wants to get away from her mother and Marbella seemed like a great option.
German ended his relationship with Abel/Eduardo, believing he was becoming too dangerous. He was falling in love with Abel, and it could ruin his professional life. Eduardo was heartbroken and revealed both her and Aitana’s secret to his mother.
Gloria knew the lovers were a distraction and could be working for Natalia. Gloria followed Marcos and questioned him about Natalia. By questioning, Marcos realized that Gloria was not so innocent.
He stated that he would go to the police to report Gloria, but before he could do that, she murdered him with a shard of glass. Holy Family shows that both Eduardo and Mariana were not happy with Glória’s behavior.
They barely had a chance to express themselves. After all, they were constantly running away from every situation and living under tremendous fear. They were supporting her because she was her mother, but now they began to question whether her sacrifices were worth what Gloria wanted to achieve.

From the end of the first season, we can conclude that the story will start immediately with the dysfunctional family reunited. Where Gloria will refuse to part with Nico and could have a possible confrontation with Natalia. However, as Natalia never informed her strictly religious father about Aitana’s photograph, we can also assume a sort of pact that will unite the situation.
The 2nd season of Holy Family it can also show the German surviving the car accident. Thus, he would begin to act in Abel’s interest. That would make Abel the new decision maker in the family. Furthermore, the second season of the series will also see a change in the dynamics of the relationship.
Gloria’s relationship with her teenage children was already strained after the end of the first season. That means her initial plan to flee and live in Canada is out of the question, and they would need a separate strategy that should work in their favor.
