Desperate Housewives makes its way back to the airwaves on Sunday night and for those that put up with Teri Hatcher on American Idol this week are happy to have the quirky nighttime soap opera back on the air. But there is one report that this might be it for Edie, played by actress Nicollette Sheridan.
According to a report from the Star magazine Desperate Housewives may need a new resident vixen. Sources tell Star that Nicollette Sheridan, who plays devious real estate agent Edie Britt, will be moving out of Wisteria Lane at the end of this season. “They are planning a party to wish her well in her new life,” says a show insider.
Adds another source to the weekly entertainment magazine: “Whispers are swirling all over the set at Universal about her leaving the show. There has been a lot of speculation in the past, but this time there seems to be something to the rumors.”
The goodbye party, says the insider, is being planned for next month, once filming ends. Cue the rep™: Nicollette’s rep tells Star she will return for a fifth season, but the speculation is that a decision to leave would come as no surprise.
According to the second source, Nicollette, 44, who was once married to actor Harry Hamlin and got engaged to singer Michael Bolton in 2006, “has been talking about leaving the show for the past two years so she can spend more time with Michael and her horses.”
