HOW TO MURDER YOUR HUSBAND (LIFETIME)
BROADCAST HISTORY:
1/14/23
STATUS:
telefilm/mini-series in the can
DESCRIPTION:
(from Lifetime's press release, November 2022) Shepherd is set to star as Nancy Crampton-Brophy, a romance-thriller novelist and author of the essay How to Murder Your Husband, who was convicted of killing her husband, Daniel, played by Steve Guttenberg. This marks Shepherd's return to Lifetime, having previously starred in The Client List and guest starred on Drop Dead Diva. Based on a true story, Nancy Crampton-Brophy (Shepherd), seemed to have a knack for writing about murder. The Portland-based romance-thriller novelist authored books about relationships that were tumultuous, while using seductive men on the covers to lure in her readers. Often, her books featured women protagonists who fantasized about killing their own husbands or fleeing their husbands and faking their own deaths. And then, in 2022 in a shocking turn of events, Brophy was convicted of killing her own husband.
