Where is Amanda Knox, almost 10 years since her exoneration? She’ll be played by Margaret Qualley in a new Hulu series about her murder charge acquittal – she’s also become a mum and a podcaster
- Amanda Knox’s ordeal in Italy, where she was wrongfully convicted of the murder of her then roommate, will be the subject of a new Hulu series co-executive-produced by Monica Lewinsky
- Knox published the memoir ‘Waiting to Be Heard’ and has worked on 3 podcasts with her husband Christopher Robinson: The Truth About True Crime with Amanda Knox, Labyrinths and Younglings
It’s been 16 years since American then exchange student Amanda Knox’s life was thrown into international chaos on a fateful day back in November 2007. Knox was initially convicted of murdering her British exchange student housemate Meredith Kercher in the university town of Perugia, Italy, when she was 20 years old.
Knox served nearly four years with her then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito for the crime before their convictions were quashed and they were freed. But where is Amanda Knox now and how has her life changed as a 36-year-old free woman? Here’s what we know …
Amanda Knox has started a family
Knox found love and married poet and author Christopher Robinson in 2018. The pair welcomed baby daughter Eureka Muse Knox-Robinson in 2021, and in 2023, during a podcast episode, Knox revealed that she had a second child, a son named Echo, in September.
She remains fiercely private about her children, and took to Instagram to explain why: “Since my exoneration, I’ve struggled to reclaim my identity and protect the people I love from being exploited as tabloid content.
“It’s not easy, and I often feel like I’m trying to invent good choices out of bad whole cloth. I know that I cannot 100 per cent protect my daughter from the kind of treatment I’ve suffered, but I’m doing the best I can. Which is why this will be the only picture of her I will ever share on social media.”
She’s become a podcaster
These days, Knox is an avid podcast host. Her podcast The Truth about True Crime with Amanda Knox, produced by husband Robinson, ran for four seasons. The couple also co-host two shows together – Labyrinths, a podcast about navigating “personal mazes” in life, and Younglings, which is about raising children.
