I would be heartbroken if I found out my husband had a mistress.
— Jes Macallan
The way that I work as an actress, I always prefer to read the whole story and tell the whole story and feel what the whole story's going to be, the journey for the audience and how it ebbs and flows, the highs and the lows.
If you bring in actors right when you're breaking story, it has a 'too many cooks in the kitchen' effect.
When I was first pitched the show, I was like, 'Oh, God, a soapy show called 'Mistresses.'' But it wasn't that at all. It wasn't a bunch of women pulling guns on each other and stabbing each other in the back. We really have a core friendship.
I'm always happy for work and feel absolutely lucky to be on something that has continued for a couple of seasons.
I listen to a lot of Phil Collins.
Ricky Whittle's abs, they should be in a museum. They're crazy.
I have a lot of that in my own life - passion, vigour, and what comes coupled with that.
