I Love You... But I Lied

2015 · 3 seasons

Melodramatic true-story reenactments of broken trust, built for gasping at secrets and waiting for the confrontation.

Starring
Kathy Keane, Alana O'Brien, Kate Mason
Overview
Most relationships have secrets, but what if the lies are huge – will the relationship be destroyed forever? Each episode of this hourlong series tells two stories, based on actual events, in which lies lead to consequences for the people involved. Family secrets and personal betrayal are often at the center of the situations that lead to explosive confrontations and, eventually, attempts at making amends. Dramatic re-creations bring the stories to life.
