It is revealed in the first season that Georgia murdered Kenny after she saw him behaving inappropriately with Ginny. A flashback showed Ginny and Georgia exercising and when Georgia left the room, Kenny took the opportunity to grope Ginny under the guise of helping her adjust her position. Georgia then decides to poison her husband's smoothie with wolfsbane and he later has a heart attack and dies in a car accident.
A private investigator looks into this possible murder and investigates Georgia after Kenny's coffin is exhumed and his grave is found empty. In the final episode of the season, Georgia hints that she placed Kenny's ashes in fireworks and evidence has now been scattered and lost forever. It is Kenny's murder that shocks Ginny and causes her to take Austin and run away.
What did Georgia to to her first husband Anthony?
However, it is also revealed in the season that Kenny is not Georgia's first husband that she has murdered. Another flashback reveals that Georgia killed her first husband Anthony Green. Georgia also poisoned Anthony and made it look like he went missing after he became too controlling and abusive.
In the final episode of season 1, the PI investigating Georgia found out about Anthony's disappearance, which only added to his interest in her as a suspect in Kenny's death.
What can fans expect in Ginny & Georgia season 2?
The season 2 trailer of Ginny & Georgia was released by Netflix and suggests that despite Ginny running away with Austin at the end of the first season, the children quickly reconnect with their mother and move back home.
Ginny appears to be working with the Private Investigator who is looking into Georgia's past as one clip shows the two of them sitting and talking about Georgia being a dangerous person.
Ginny also appears to mend her relationship with Marcus and the pair are seen having a heart-to-heart and canoodling. Ginny also seems to still be struggling with her friends and only has companionship in Abby, as Max and Norah appear to still be angry with her.
The trailer also shows that Austin reconnects with his father Gil who comes back into town. This will likely add to the drama in the upcoming season, as Georgia is faced with yet more unfinished business from her past.
