The Ex-Wife (Seasons 1–2)

The Ex-Wife (2022) is a British psychological thriller you can watch online on iFILM, adapted from Jess Ryder's novel by director Brian O'Malley. The setup is tight: Jack (Tom Mison) discovers his young girlfriend Tasha (Celine Buckens) is pregnant and leaves his wife on the spot.

Three years on, Tasha has what looks like a perfect life — the house, the husband, the daughter. But the surface is all tension. Jack's family never accepted her. His ex-wife Natasha, played by Janet Montgomery, has never quite left the picture either — she shows up, she calls, she remains. Jack is falling apart at work. And Tasha, who thought she'd won, slowly starts to see how fragile her position actually is.

Katie McGrath turns the ex-wife into a full character rather than a stock threat, which is what keeps the series from sliding into formula. The question of who's actually in danger here doesn't have a clean answer. Stream The Ex-Wife online on iFILM.
