With Lisa France occupying the director’s chair, Lifetime’s ‘My Husband’s Other Wife’ is a thriller drama movie that centers on the seemingly picture-perfect wedlock between Ty and Kelli. There’s trouble in paradise as the latter finds evidence of her husband’s unfaithfulness. Kelli’s world turns upside down when she learns that Ty is leading a double life and is secretly married to another woman named Sasha. As his secrets come out in the open, the young mother threatens to file charges against him for being unfaithful.
Before Kelli can take any action, Ty suddenly meets with a fiery and fatal car accident. Not long after, she begins suspecting that her disloyal husband pretended to be dead and is weaving a plot to kill her. Tangled in a dangerous web of lies and mystery, the protagonist digs deeper into Ty’s hidden life and his seemingly fake death. The suspenseful story unfolds across multiple locations, including Kelli’s house, the site of the accident, and Sasha’s residence, all of which play vital roles in bringing the narrative to life.
Where Was My Husband’s Other Wife Filmed?
‘My Husband’s Other Wife’ was filmed in its entirety in Georgia, particularly in Metro Atlanta. According to reports, principal photography for the Lifetime production got underway in late May 2025 under the working title ‘Husband’s Revenge’. It went on for a few weeks before wrapping up in June of the same year. Upon the conclusion of the shooting process, Ashton Leigh gifted the director, Lisa France, a thoughtful wrap present, for which the latter was grateful.
Metro Atlanta, Georgia
The filming of ‘My Husband’s Other Wife’ took the cast and crew to several locations across Metro Atlanta in Georgia. The city of Atlanta, located in Fulton County (with a portion also in DeKalb County), hosted the production of a significant portion of the thriller movie. Dubbed Hollywood of the South, the capital city of the Peach State is a prominent filming destination as it boasts top-tier production and post-production facilities, a skilled workforce, lucrative tax incentives, and a wide range of settings from modern cityscapes to rural neighborhoods, making it appealing for titles of varying genres, such as the Lifetime production.
To create the visual aesthetic of Kelli’s emotional transformation as she navigates betrayal and self-discovery, the production team visited Fayetteville in Fayette County, south of downtown Atlanta. A few sequences were taped in the idyllic town whose charm inspired Margaret Mitchell’s novel, ‘Gone With the Wind.’ The city of Senoia in Coweta County also hosted the shooting of ‘My Husband’s Other Wife.’ Alongside the aforementioned locations, a minor part of the filming also took place in Smyrna, located northwest of Atlanta in Cobb County. Its tree-lined neighborhoods and small-town charm reportedly lent an ideal atmosphere for the taping of the Lifetime film.
