Discovery Life Channel Invites Viewers Into The Secret World Of The "Other Woman" In New Series, THE MISTRESS (wt)
PR Newswire - Mon Nov 24, 12:30PM CST
Hollywood and the media most commonly portray mistresses as heartless home wreckers but, more often than not, these women don't embody the sexed-up stereotype. Many are duped into these toxic love triangles and struggle with deep feelings of loneliness and personal conflict. Now, one of the world's most famous mistresses is on a mission to rescue others from the despair of their affairs and portray the hidden life of the often-vilified woman in Discovery Life Channel's THE MISTRESS (working title). Sarah J. Symonds, author and self-proclaimed former mistress of Chef Gordon Ramsay and Lord Jeffrey Archer, dishes out tough love to mistresses ready to finally escape the trap of extramarital affairs. Each half-hour episode documents Symonds' intervention with one mistress, drawing from her own personal experiences to prove that there's rarely a silver lining when you're the other woman. Helping women fully come to terms with the truth beneath the lies, the empty promises, and the sneaking around, THE MISTRESS gives viewers a unique glimpse into the downward spiral of secret lovers. THE MISTRESS (wt) premieres on Wednesday, January 21 with back to back episodes at 10/9c and 10:30/9:30c on Discovery Life Channel.

Discovery Life Channel Invites Viewers Into The Secret World Of The "Other Woman" In New Series, THE MISTRESS (wt)
PR Newswire - Mon Nov 24, 12:30PM CST
Hollywood and the media most commonly portray mistresses as heartless home wreckers but, more often than not, these women don't embody the sexed-up stereotype. Many are duped into these toxic love triangles and struggle with deep feelings of loneliness and personal conflict. Now, one of the world's most famous mistresses is on a mission to rescue others from the despair of their affairs and portray the hidden life of the often-vilified woman in Discovery Life Channel's THE MISTRESS (working title). Sarah J. Symonds, author and self-proclaimed former mistress of Chef Gordon Ramsay and Lord Jeffrey Archer, dishes out tough love to mistresses ready to finally escape the trap of extramarital affairs. Each half-hour episode documents Symonds' intervention with one mistress, drawing from her own personal experiences to prove that there's rarely a silver lining when you're the other woman. Helping women fully come to terms with the truth beneath the lies, the empty promises, and the sneaking around, THE MISTRESS gives viewers a unique glimpse into the downward spiral of secret lovers. THE MISTRESS (wt) premieres on Wednesday, January 21 with back to back episodes at 10/9c and 10:30/9:30c on Discovery Life Channel.
