People say that Teri Hatcher behaved badly on the Desperate Housewives set, but her character, Susan Mayer, was always super sweet. Susan lived on the beautiful Wisteria Lane with her best friends Lynette Scavo, Gabrielle Solis, and Bree Van de Kamp. She raised her daughter Julie after her terrible divorce from Karl and fell in love with the charming Mike Delfino.
There is often talk of why Nicolette Sheridan left the show early as her character, Edie Britt, was suddenly gone. There's also a lot of chatter about what happened to Teri Hatcher. Let's take a look.
Teri's Acting Career
Desperate Housewives is a beloved show and fans love many of the quotes on the show.. Since Susan was such a great character, people are now wondering what happened to Teri Hatcher's acting career.
NZ Herald reported that as of November 2019, didn't seem to be starring in a movie or TV show, based on her IMDb page.
In 2018, there was a lot of talk that the actress wasn't doing well. Teri Hatcher was upset about that and explained, "On the cover yesterday (Star magazine has) an article that says exactly that — it's totally absurd — that I am broke and homeless and living out of my van. It's categorically false. I am not broke. I have done very well investing my money. I am not homeless and I am not living out of my van."
After she finished her time as Susan on Desperate Housewives, she played the character of Kate Quimby on the TV series Jane By Design. She played Rebecca Tyler in one episode of Funny Or Die Presents... in 2012. She was the voice of Dottie in 2013's Planes and 2014's Planes: Fire And Rescue.
In recent years, Hatcher hasn't acted very much: from 2016 to 2017, she played Charlotte in the reboot of The Odd Couple, then played Rhea in 8 episodes of Supergirl.
But there have been no starring roles in a movie or on a TV show, nothing like Susan on Desperate Housewives.
'Hatching Change'
Teri Hatcher began a YouTube channel called Hatching Change and had a show called "Van Therapy" where she asked people to come into her van and talk to her. This might be where the rumors about her living in a van came from.
According to Entertainment Weekly, she explained, "They can be really little subjects or really big subjects, but I feel so lucky that I’m able to connect with these people whom I might otherwise never have come into contact with." She continued that while she might not share a lot of similarities with the people she was talking to, they could find something to bond over: she said, "And the answer might be nothing but I think more often than not there’s something that connects us. We’re much more alike than we think we are.”
Healthy Cooking
Teri Hatcher also cooks on her YouTube channel and she told Entertainment Weekly that she likes eating healthy and would love to inspire others to do the same: she said, "I’m trying to provide some fun while trying to convince people to eat less processed food.”
Hatcher has many cooking videos on her channel: "1 For 1 Meal: One Pan For One Person" has recipes for lamb, salad, salmon, and stuffed peppers. Her series "Don't Eat 'It' Out Of A Box" has vegan lasagna, avocado toast, and apple crumble, among many other recipes.
In 2019, Teri Hatcher made headlines when she shared a photo on social media where she was in a bikini. She explained that she was following a challenge with F45 that lasted eight weeks and between working out and eating anti-inflammatory foods, she was doing great. She "Exercise has become a source of well-being, not a means to look good naked. This is my truth and being in this 55-year-old body actually feels liberating. Here’s the thing. I’ve finally figured out how to be comfortable in my own skin. Maybe not every day but a lot of them. Age allows you to be clear on your purpose and cherish who and what you are grateful for.”
While Teri Hatcher hasn't starred in many movies or TV shows since Desperate Housewives came to an end, it looks like she's keeping busy with her YouTube channel and she's living a healthy lifestyle. Hatcher is also the mom of a daughter named Emerson and according to The List, Emerson studied literary arts at Brown University and posted on Instagram that she graduated in the spring of 2020.
Hatcher has always been a devoted parent and in an interview with Parade in 2009, she said, "I’ve made a lot of career sacrifices and relationship sacrifices in order to make my daughter a priority."
