Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult may have only just arrived on Netflix, but it’s all we can think about after devouring the three-part docuseries.
Offering a look into the worlds of former members of the talent management company 7M, the series unravels the secrets behind the alleged cult and the disturbing allegations against its founder Robert Shinn.
As is told through the testimonies of former 7M members, many were also members of Shekinah Church, an invite-only church at which Shinn preached. And among them was Miranda Wilking.
Miranda’s story is at the heart of Dancing for the Devil: The 7M TikTok Cult, with the series following the Wilking family as they express their concerns for their loved one, with them “desperately trying to get their daughter out”.
Through the series we also learn about Miranda Wilking’s husband, James Derrick (AKA BDash), also a former 7M member, with the pair having denied being part of a cult.
But are Miranda Wilking and James Derrick still together now? Here’s everything we know about the couple.
