Loyal Housekeeper Blows Lid Off Murdaugh Family Secrets

In November 2025, Blanca Turrubiate-Simpson, a former housekeeper for the Murdaugh family, is sharing her insider account of the shocking 2021 murders of Maggie and Paul Murdaugh. Simpson, who worked for the family for 14 years, was one of the first people on the scene after the murders and noticed several suspicious details that she believes could have aided the investigation.

On the morning after the killings, Simpson was asked by Alex Murdaugh to clean the family's Moselle estate. There, she found Maggie's Mercedes SUV parked in an unusual spot and Maggie's pajamas and underwear artfully laid out, which was uncharacteristic of her friend. Simpson says these observations led her to suspect Alex's involvement, though at the time, "nobody asked me anything."
