Alicia Wiggins

Meet Gillian, a former "other woman", who's trying to let go of her past. Her story is the first of true stories told from the other woman herself, one story at a time. The stories in When the Affair Is Over show the journey of these women as they shed their past and regain their self-respect, told one story at a time.

Alicia Berenson’s life is seemingly perfect. A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening, her husband, Gabriel, returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face and then never speaks another word. Alicia’s refusal to talk, or give any kind of explanation, turns a domestic tragedy into something far grander, a mystery that captures the public imagination and casts Alicia into notoriety.
