How Many Episodes Are In ‘The Girlfriend’ On Prime Video?

Prime Video’s newly released series The Girlfriend is a psychological thriller packed with plot twists and fierce vendettas. The storyline follows Cherry (Olivia Cooke), the girlfriend of Daniel (Laurie Davidson), and Laura (Robin Wright), Daniel’s mother, who puts him in an uncomfortably tricky situation: Do you choose your mother or your girlfriend? And what happens when your girlfriend and your mom’s petty dislike toward each other grows into an all-out, sinister war?

Per Prime Video’s official description of The Girlfriend, “Laura’s convinced Cherry is hiding something. Is she a manipulative social climber, or is Laura just paranoid? The truth is a matter of perspective.”

Cooke and Wright’s suspenseful storyline stems from Michelle Frances’s 2017 novel, also named The Girlfriend. Here’s all the info you need to tune into the book-turned-series, including: How many episodes, what stars are on set, and, as always, how you can stream it.
