The Model Wife (2008)

Twenty-two-year-old model Poppy Price falls pregnant after an affair with a much older and married TV news anchorman, Luke Norton. He never intended to have a future with Poppy but he soon has no choice but to appear on her doorstep, promising to marry her. Luke's scorned ex-wife Hannah, who gave up her reporting career to bring up their children, works out her hurt and anger by writing a newspaper column in which she details how she has bounced back after "the Cad" left her for "the Bimbo". Meanwhile life for Poppy has become quite dull and routine, even though she adores her toddler Clara. Luke is hardly around and everyone is telling her to get a nanny and go back to work. So when an offer to write a magazine column about being a social butterfly comes up, Poppy accepts, even though she's barely been out of the house for ages. As Poppy starts to party, Luke faces some professional difficulties, not least a tardy and diva-ish interviewee and a colleague who wants him for herself.
