Jean Smart is opening up about her pain and confusion around her late husbands sudden death.

On Thursday, People released a preview of the Hacks stars interview with journalist Chris Wallace, which is set to premiere Friday.

In the clip, Wallace asked the Designing Women alum about the 2021 death of Richard Gilliland , her spouse of more than 30 years, and how devastating it was for her.

The worst, the worst, Smart replied. It was such a shock. It was so unexpected.
