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.
