Jennifer Love Hewitt met her husband, Brian Hallisay, when they started working together on Lifetime’s The Client in 2013.
Now, 12 years and three kids later, they will be starring in the Lifetime holiday movie, The Holiday Junkie. Their children Autumn, 10, Atticus, almost 9, and Aidan, 2, will appear in the film that their mother is directing.
The Holiday Junkie follows the decorating and planning service company run by Andie (Jennifer Love Hewitt) and her mother Mimi. After Mimi passes away, Andie is forced to face her first Christmas without her mother and carry The Holiday Junkie torch on her own. Despite the challenges, Andie may also find some love at Christmas along the way!
“Jennifer is beloved by Lifetime and our viewers,” said Elaine Frontain Bryant, EVP, Head of Programming Genres for A&E, Lifetime and LMN. “We’re excited to work with her again on this special project near and dear to her and to have it as one of our cornerstones for our It’s a Wonderful Lifetime slate.
The Holiday Junkie will debut later this year.
