The show Daytime Divas is a dramatic representation of a group of women co-hosting a highly successful daytime talk show called The Lunch Hour. This show is a representation of the real behind-the-scenes look at daytime talk shows similar to The View or The Talk. The title of the show comes from the fact that the hosts have big personalities, and egos to match.
In season 1, episode 7 titled "Truth's a Mutha," things start to get complicated for the ladies of The Lunch Hour after they find out that Mo, one of the co-hosts, has been keeping a secret from them.

Meanwhile, the network executives of the show are trying to find a way to increase ratings. J.J., the executive producer of The Lunch Hour, decides to bring in a celebrity guest, a rapper named "Truth," who is known for his controversial lyrics and over-the-top personality. When he arrives on set, the hosts quickly realize that he is an attention-seeking diva, and they become apprehensive about the way he will behave on the show. But J.J. insists that the show needs a rating boost and pushes ahead with Truth's appearance.
As the day goes on, Mo's secret continues to impact her relationships with her co-hosts. While all of this is going on, the interview with Truth is about to begin. Initially, things go well, but Truth starts to become increasingly difficult to control. He refuses to answer some of the questions asked by the hosts and even threatens one of them.
As the interview continues, things spiral out of control. When Truth's entourage starts to get involved in the argument, the co-hosts start to worry about their safety. This leads to an explosive argument between Truth and one of the co-hosts, which shakes the very foundation of the show.
Overall, the episode "Truth's a Mutha" is a captivating and powerful one. It shows the audience what happens when secrets are revealed, and how they can impact both personal relationships and the professional world.
