Don’t get mad, get even…

Sharon’s seeking retribution after her husband’s affair.

Jolene yearns to get her own back on the man that destroyed her life.

And Evie is fighting to protect her family from the bad boy her daughter married.

Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned … As the turn of the millennium rounds the corner, this is one year that will go out with a bang.

The Essex wives are back, and they’re out for revenge.
