If you’ve just finished watching Netflix’s Sirens, you’re probably still processing all the drama that went down in that final episode. From Simone stepping into Michaela’s shoes as the new Mrs. Kell to Devon’s emotional exit from the island, there’s a lot to unpack. Here’s a clear breakdown of Sirens’ ending—and whether we can expect a second season.
What Is Sirens About?
Sirens is a dark comedy that dives into the lives of two sisters—Devon and Simone DeWitt—from Buffalo, New York. After a tough upbringing with an alcoholic father and a tragic loss of their mother, both sisters carry emotional baggage.
When Simone disappears and stops talking to her family, Devon sets out to find her. Her search takes her to a luxurious island where Simone is now working as a personal assistant and close friend to a wealthy and mysterious woman named Michaela Kell. But when Devon arrives, she realizes something’s very off—and suspects Michaela might be more dangerous than she seems.
Why Did Simone Replace Michaela as Mrs. Kell?
Throughout the series, Simone is totally loyal to Michaela—until a surprising twist changes everything. Michaela suspects her husband, Peter, of cheating and asks Simone to follow him. But instead of uncovering an affair, Simone accidentally gets caught—and ends up sharing a kiss with Peter.
Though Simone immediately regrets it and stays loyal to Michaela, a photographer captures the moment. When Michaela sees the evidence, she fires Simone and accuses her of betrayal and theft. Feeling hurt and humiliated, Simone turns to Peter and tells him everything. This leads Peter to end his marriage with Michaela, saying she’s too controlling.
Peter then chooses Simone as his new partner, essentially replacing Michaela with the very person she once mentored. It’s a full-circle moment—just like Michaela once replaced Peter’s first wife, Jocelyn, she’s now the one being replaced.
What Happened to Devon—and Why Did She Leave the Island?
Devon had always played the role of the responsible older sister. She gave up her youth to care for their dad and tried hard to pull Simone away from Michaela’s influence. When she sees Simone becoming more involved with the Kells, Devon accuses Michaela of being a cult leader and even suggests she might be a killer.
But during a big charity event, Michaela reveals that Jocelyn—Peter’s first wife—is still alive, just living privately due to health issues. This revelation shocks Devon, making her question everything. When she sees Simone with Peter, Devon finally accepts that her sister isn’t brainwashed—just deeply wounded and trying to escape her painful past.
Devon then makes a quiet, mature choice: she leaves the island with their father, turning down a romantic offer from a kind boat captain. She chooses to move on, not out of anger—but out of love and self-care.
The Ferry Scene: A Surprising Moment Between Michaela and Devon
In one of the most touching scenes, Michaela and Devon end up sitting together on the ferry to New York. Despite everything, Devon apologizes, and they share a raw, honest conversation. Michaela admits she doesn’t have a plan anymore, and Devon realizes Michaela is not a monster—just a broken woman trying to survive.
They talk briefly about Simone, and Michaela admits she doesn’t think Simone will be happy with Peter, but she might get by. This exchange shows that both women, in their own ways, cared for Simone—and that life isn’t black and white.
What Does the Final Scene Mean?
The last scene shows Simone standing alone on the island estate, dressed in elegant clothes, looking every bit like the new Mrs. Kell. She’s soaking in her new life, convinced she’s finally found stability. But with everything we’ve seen, it’s clear this new role may not be as perfect as she believes.

Will There Be a Sirens Season 2?
While the ending leaves the door open for more—like how Simone handles being Mrs. Kell, or whether Michaela fights back—it’s unlikely we’ll see a second season. Netflix has called Sirens a “limited series,” which usually means it’s a one-time story.
However, nothing is ever final when fans speak up. If the show becomes a hit, there’s always a chance Netflix could bring it back.
Final Thoughts
Sirens is a twisted, emotional ride through sisterhood, power, and identity. Its ending gives closure, but also leaves just enough mystery to keep fans talking. Whether or not there’s a Season 2, it’s safe to say Simone, Devon, and Michaela’s stories will stick with us for a while.
