Who is Judea Hartley? Meet the millennial daughter of 'The Rev' pastor Richard Hartley with two master's degrees

Judea is definitely the brains of the Hartley family, as well as the praise and worship leader of her church and head of the youth ministry

While most kids can't wait to move out of their parents home, and indulge in a wild and fun lifestyle, the same can't be said for 27-year-old Judea Hartley. Judea is the daughter of 'The Rev' star Richard Hartley, and his wife Stacey. This youthful millennial is also the praise and worship leader of her church and the head of the youth ministry. 

With her two master's degrees, Judea is definitely the brains of the Hartley family. According to her bio on the network's website, the youngster is described as a "comedian at heart". The youngster also appears to be a very practical person. In the trailers released by the network, we see her father questioning Judea and her brother, Jordan, why they haven't kept their word of moving out when they turn 18. To which she replies by saying, they promised that before they knew how hard it was outside, while her father laughs about life outside being very expensive.

Judea may not have much experience in relationships, but that doesn't stop her from commenting about what an ideal marriage and partner should be like. Judea can be heard commenting how one should marry a person for their "character", as it is the most attractive thing about a person. Her father immediately disagrees with her by mocking how a person will never wake up in the middle of the night and comment about their partner's character. WE can't wait to watch more of this father-daughter banter. 

'The Rev' follows Pastor Richard Hartley and his family. After spending years traveling across the globe, the pastor is back home to Long Island, NY. He has embarked on a mission to build his hometown's choir group with the help of his lovely wife, Stacey. Alongside that, we will also see the couple pushing their children to pursue their dreams. The network describes the show as, "In this hilarious, melodic and inspirational new series, there’s never a dull moment in the world of larger-than-life Pastor Richard Hartley.

When he isn’t preaching and inspiring his congregation at his Long Island, NY church, he’s dealing with his rambunctious and loving family… all while utilizing his musical skills to make the church’s choir top notch. Having spent years traveling the globe working with incredible choirs and A-list musicians, Richard is now focused on his hometown choir and, with the help of his wife Stacey, trying to get his millennial children, Judea and Jordan, out of the house so that they can build their own dreams."

'The Rev' premieres on Thursday, January 21, 2021 at 10.30 pm ET/PT on USA Network.
