"Tony Hinchcliffe walks up to me. He said, I'm Tony Hinchcliffe. I said, I know. And I said, how you coming? He said, I'm coming, your husband suicide and you being raped. And I said— he said, well, what are you thinking? I said, it better be funny."
At the pre-Roast brunch, Hinchcliffe approached Underwood and disclosed he planned to target her deceased husband's suicide and a past sexual assault.
