Culture: Desperate lawsuits: Former “Desperate Housewives” star sues creator
- Nicollette Sheridan doesn’t like Mark Cherry. The former “Desperate” star, who left the show recently, claims that Cherry physically assaulted her on the set in 2008 and then begged forgiveness later. She claims, beyond that, Cherry fostered a hostile work environment for her and other actors. The “Desperate” camp, on the other hand, claims that Sheridan’s allegations are “without merit.” source
