Where to Watch Kathie Lee Gifford’s ‘Then Came You’

Kathie Lee Gifford is the leading lady in her new film, Then Came You. The romantic comedy, which the former Today Show host produced and wrote (penning both the screenplay and the film’s title song), follows a recently widowed woman who finds love again when she’s least expecting it. While the project has been in the works for a couple years now, it’s finally getting its big debut with a limited theatrical release and a VOD premiere.

Then Came You follows Annabelle (Gifford), who embarks on a journey to travel the world with her husband’s ashes and visit all of the locations from their favorite movies. First, she stops in Scotland to commemorate Braveheart. It’s there where she meets and falls in love with an innkeeper named Howard (Craig Ferguson), who is also a widow.

Gifford lost her own husband, NFL and broadcasting legend Frank Gifford, in 2015. A couple of years later, she began work on Then Came You, using her own life as inspiration for the film. In one scene, her character says, “I’ve got to make new memories or the old ones are going to kill me.” Gifford told USA Today that she wrote the line drawing from her own experiences after her husband’s death. “I was rumbling through the most beautiful house that felt like a morgue without my husband and my kids. It was killing me. That is where that line came from,” she said.

Annabelle and Howard’s love story is filled with ups and downs and has all the markings of a classic rom-com. You can see for yourself in the Then Came You trailer, which you can watch in the video above.
