Sarah Wynter may be best known for her role on 24, but the star is opening up about her horrific battle with postpartum psychosis.
Wynter, 53, rose to stardom as Kate Warner on the hit FOX drama 24 alongside Kiefer Sutherland and Elisha Cuthbert. While she also found success on Flight of the Conchords and Windfall, the Australian actress is speaking out about a personal struggle amid the Lindsay Clancy trial. After giving birth to twin boys in 2011, Wynter experienced postpartum psychosis. In a new Instagram post, Wynter spoke about the nightmare, which she chronicled for a 2022 piece in Vanity Fair.

“There is a great deal of chatter about postpartum psychosis right now,” Wynter said, referring to the trial of Massachusetts mother Lindsay Clancy, who strangled her three children in their Duxbury home. “As much as we need to highlight the importance of educating people on this illness… there continues to be a lot of comments out there from people who have no idea what they are talking about. Please be thoughtful when weighing in on this case.”
Wynter continued, noting that she was hospitalized for postpartum psychosis in 2013.
“I wrote about my experience in 2022 for Vanity Fair. The link is in my bio. I’m not posting for clicks or likes and I don’t get paid if people read it. But if you know someone who might be suffering feel free to take a look. My heart is going out to everyone involved in this case. It also goes out to every woman who is feeling pain over their own PPD memories while this case plays out in public. I see you,” Wynter concluded.

Wynter’s Horrific Battle With Postpartum Psychosis
Wynter heard constant beeping in her head, reminiscent of the hospital monitors while her twin sons were being cared for.
“I saw catastrophe everywhere. In my head, it was danger and everywhere I looked, there was potential for a catastrophic event,” she said. “Whether it was a delivery man that was in a stolen uniform, because he was actually a serial killer, or a tree that was going to hit the house, or a fire or speeding car.”
She started stuttering, couldn’t sleep, and was increasingly paranoid, Nine reported.
