Biography
Sherrilyn Woodward[4] was born on 11 December 1965 in Columbus, Georgia.[5] She married and had three children.
Accusations and divorce
On January 7, 2019, McQueen filed a lawsuit against her husband and his assistants, claiming they had poisoned her over a number of years in order to sabotage her health to his financial gain. After her husband filed for divorce in March 2018, the suit alleges that tests concluded her levels of lithium, tin, barium, thorium and other metals were at a dangerous level of toxicity, indicating that they had “systematically poisoned her since 2015".[6] Her husband's statement about the lawsuit called her “a brilliant fiction writer who has made it apparent that she cannot discern between fiction and reality”.[7][8]
