My husband thought I was an imposter
Abi Morgan鈥檚 husband woke from a coma and didn鈥檛 recognise her
Abi Morgan鈥檚 husband woke from a coma and didn鈥檛 recognise her.
Abi is a playwright and screenwriter based in London, and she'd made a name for herself writing successful and often highly emotional films and TV Series such as The Iron Lady, Shame, and The Split.
In 2019 her life took such a strange and unfamiliar turn, she says it was almost like she'd landed in one of her scripts. Her partner Jacob was ill and put into a medically induced coma. Eight months later, he woke up, and no longer recognised Abi as his wife.
Abi has written a book about her experiences called This Is Not a Pity Memoir.
