The actress, however, insisted that he was her soulmate and disregarded their counsel. However, Merkin observes that Murphy became more reclusive and suspicious as the marriage progressed.
“I believe Simon attempted to throw her off balance in order to give her the impression that he was the only one who could keep her safe. He fostered a mindset of “us against the world” that seemed very domineering and deceptive.
Makeup artist Jordan was astounded by Murphy’s look when she arrived on the Something Wicked set in Oregon in April 2009. Jordan tells Us.
“She had no sense of balance, her eyes were really sunken, and her hair was unwashed.” She seemed to be getting out of a chair like a baby Bambi. She just could not be supported by her little knees.
According to Jordan, Murphy often requested her mother, a breast cancer survivor, during production.
