We’ve all envisioned what it would be like to haveour own reality show.
(Don’t deny it.)
So it’s no surprise to see so many people who want to appear in them.
“Because I’m like, who wants to let everybody know their dirty laundry?”
she told The List in an exclusive interview.
Luckily, that attitude didn’t last long.
“I just trusted him,” she told us.
“And I was like, okay, I’m doing this.”
Now, viewers can tune in to watch her each week on TLC.
So, what was it that changed her mind?
Monette told us the real reason she decided to share her story on “Addicted to Marriage.”
Yet, her life seemed to lend itself to making up a perfect one.
As a professional wedding planner, Monette was hit hard by the love bug multiple times.
The 53-year-old now has 11 ex-husbands.
“I really, really thought every single one was the one,” she explained to us.
“And I thought I was madly in love every single time.”
Monette certainly isn’t the only one who’s felt this way following a divorce, either.
“They feel so bad about themselves,” Monette said to The List.
“And they don’t even want to go put themselves out there at all.”
These same people are the ones she knew she needed to open up her life on television for.
After all, “your past doesn’t matter.
It’s what you do now,” she told us.
“Addicted to Marriage” premieres Tuesday, November 16 at 10 p.m. EST/PST on TLC.
