In a candid documentary, Singer Shania Twain has revealed details about her husband’s terrible affair with her best friend.
The singer did not hold back her pain as she detailed the experience, which will be out on Netflix soon
The revelation that her ex-husband Robert “Mutt” Lange had an affair with her personal assistant, who was also her best friend, in 2008 was particularly difficult for Shania to accept because she had become an international role model for women due to the powerful lyrics of her songs.
In the teaser video for her upcoming documentary, the 56-year-old compared the experience to “losing her parents.”
Reflecting back on the betrayal, Shania Twain said she felt at the time that she “had lost her voice forever”.

Shania learned that Robert had been unfaithful and had been seeing Marie-Anne Thiébaud, her then-best friend and “confidant,”
Speaking about the situation with Oprah Winfrey previously, Shania told the host:
“I said, ‘Marie-Anne, don’t you think my husband is acting strange?”
“And she said, ‘No, I don’t see anything strange.'”
After 14 years of marriage, Robert who shares son Eja with Shania broke off their union and didn’t give her an explanation
Her friend Marie-Anne also never revealed the truth to her.
The singer was informed of the infidelity by Marie-Anne’s then-husband Frédéric Thiébaud – who had found out himself.
Speaking on the Oprah Winfrey show about breaking the news he explained:
“I said, ‘guys, now you have to tell her. This is ridiculous. You owe her that.'”
After Robert and Marie-Anne refused to confess to Shania, Frédéric decided to get in touch with the hitmaker.
Shania and Frédéric bonded over their shared heartbreak. They then became close, struck up a romantic relationship, and were married just a few years later.
Speaking of their newfound love on the Ellen DeGeneres Show, Shania said:
“We were a support to each other and really found something beautiful in the end and unexpected.”
