UK streamer Itvx is to look into the life of fake CIA agent and bigamist William Allen Jordan in a three-part doc series.
The Other Mrs Jordan will unpick the life of Jordan, who convinced his British wife Mary Turner Thompson that he was a CIA operative working in counter-terrorism in the early 2000s until she received a phonemail from another woman claiming to be his “other” spouse. In emerged he had multiple marriages, relationships and children elsewhere.
At the center of the doc is the literal and metaphorical search for Jordan, who was in reality a serial bigamist, sexual predator and pathological liar. While the pursuit begins with Thompson, ITV says its “becomes a baton race of women each seeking the truth.”
The series is from Bafta-winning filmmaker Matt Smith for Circle Circle Films, co-produced with October Films for ITV’s streaming service Itvx, and based on Thompson’s books The Bigamist and ThePsychopath.
