Monica herself was thrust into the spotlight after it was revealed that she had had an affair with then-President Bill Clinton when she was 22 years old and working as an intern in the White House.
More than a decade after the fateful day when Amanda was wrongly found guilty of murder, a source told DailyMail.com that she will be retelling her story for a new Hulu series.
The insider revealed in October that Amanda was teaming up with Monica Lewinsky to create the big-budget TV drama that will shed new light on Meredith's untimely death.
A source told DailyMail.com that the two women became “very close” when they made the show together.
'(They) are in almost constant contact. They discover they have a lot in common and support each other,” the insider said.
Amanda – and her then-boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito – were both found guilty of the death of exchange student Meredith.
Amanda was the one who first called the police after discovering Meredith's bedroom door locked and blood in the bathroom, but after law enforcement officials noticed her acting strangely, she became a suspect.
At the time, Amanda blamed her boss at a local bar where she worked, Patrick Lumumba, who had a solid alibi, which only made the police more suspicious of her.
After a massive investigation and trial, Amanda, who was 20 years old at the time, and her boyfriend Raffaele were convicted of the crime in 2009 – and she was sentenced to 26 years in prison for faking a burglary, defamation, sexual assault and murder.

She has since written a memoir about what happened to her, and in 2018 she became the host of a series called The Scarlet Letter Reports, which focuses on the “gendered nature of public shaming.” She also runs a podcast called The Truth About True Crime.
