But few viewers are aware, however, of her years of tumultuous relationships and how this bombshell from the 1980s looks nowadays…

Nicollette Sheridan exploded on the small screen as the gorgeous, scheming and manipulative vixen Paige Matheson in Knots Landing – a spinoff of Dallas.

The show premiered in 1979, but Sheridan debuted on Knots Landing in 1986 and stayed on the soap opera for seven years. She joined the series fresh off her stint as John Cusack’s love interest in the movie The Sure Thing.

As Paige Matheson, she showed both nice and naughty sides – but her character is still well remembered.

”Paige is different. She’s strong, she’s ambitious, she’s bright, she’s mischievous,” Sheridan said, talking about her portrayal.

The beautiful blonde didn’t only win the public’s admiration, Sheridan also earned the 1990 Soap Opera Digest award for Outstanding Lead Actress. At the same time, she was also listed as one of People‘s “50 Most Beautiful People”.

Nicollette Sheridan grew up in Hollywood with her famous mother (actress Sally Adams and her mom’s lover (Blofeld actor Telly Savalas). She was born in England but came over to the United States when she was 10. Her strong accent was kept intact for many years – but today, she can switch as she likes.

”All the kids used to make fun of that, and I hated it. So I practiced every day talking with an American accent and pretty much mastered it,” she told Tampa Bay Times in 1988.

Also of Dynasty fame, actress Nicollette Sheridan is one of the many stars in Hollywood who has not had an easy go at marriage.

The England native, now 57, was first married to actor Harry Hamlin, now 69, in 1991. They divorced only 11 months later, the reason being a point of contention in the public eye.

Hamlin’s second wife, Lisa Ramlin (57), claimed that Sheridan had cheated on Hamlin with singer Michael Bolton.

Ramlin revealed the reported affair on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and Sheridan has vehemently denied that this ever happened.

Sheridan claims that she and her first husband divorced for entirely different reasons, but this led to a public feud on Twitter, where Hamlin defended his second wife while accusing Sheridan of lying.

Either way, it is also public knowledge that Sheridan and singer Michael Bolton did date on and off as of 1992, after the actress’s divorce.

The two dated for 5 years, broke up, then reunited in 2005. They became engaged in 2006 but officially broke it off just 2 years later.

After breaking things off with Bolton, Sheridan dated and married Aaron Phypers. The two were married for only 6 months before divorcing.

Much like her previous husband, Phypers also next married a Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star. He and Denise Richards were married in 2018.

Sheridan was experiencing conflict in her professional life at this time as well.

Her character on Desperate Housewives was killed off unexpectedly, and she claimed her firing was a result of her accusations against creator Marc Cherry.

According to many fans, the show was never the same without Edie Britt – some even stopped watching the show after the departure of Edie.

Sheridan alleged that Cherry physically assaulted her and proceeded to sue him for the charges after being pushed out of the show.

The actress also claimed that Cherry was abusive and hostile toward other actors and writers on the show – but the lawsuit was thrown out in 2017.

Understandably, Sheridan took a step back from the spotlight at this point in her career, instead focusing on smaller passion projects. She starred in several Hallmark Channel movies and a Dynasty reboot in 2017.

Her Dynasty character was killed off in 2019 after Sheridan chose to spend more time with her sick mother.

”Working on the Dynasty reboot and reprising the iconic role of Alexis has been thoroughly enjoyable, but the chance to spend precious time with my terminally ill mother is more important to me right now,” she told TV Line in 2019.
