Who killed Merritt Monaco in The Perfect Couple?
The shocking twist in The Perfect Couple ending is that Abby Winbury is revealed as the killer of Merritt Monaco.
The reason behind Abby murdering Merrit was her and her husband Thomas’s financial crisis, especially during Abby’s pregnancy. To make matters worse, Thomas owed $2.5 million to Isabel with whom he was having an affair. The couple put their hopes from Tag’s will which was meant to be divided among his three sons. However, the condition was that they could only inherit the wealth after the youngest child turned 18, which was about to happen a few weeks after the wedding.
However, the bombshell that Merritt was pregnant with Tag’s baby disrupted their plans, as her child would now have a claim to the inheritance. Abby was in a dilemma as they would have to wait another 18 years for the inheritance.
Seeing no other option to overcome their financial burdens, Abby took matters into her own hands by killing Merritt. She decided to use the pills of Amelia’s mother which were stolen by Thomas due to his drug addiction. She ended up mixing the pills in Merritt’s drink and took her for a night swim. While Merritt was drowsy in the pool, Abby held her head tightly to drown her, leading to the former’s death.
