Amanda Knox leaves people confused with 'chaotic' bedroom routine she does with her husband

Amanda Knox has caused mass confusion with her bedtime advice

Amanda Knox, who became a household name after being wrongfully convicted for the murder of British student, Meredith Kercher, has now caused outrage over her bedtime routine.

In November 2007, 21-year-old Kercher was found dead in an apartment she shared with Knox in Perugia, Italy.

Knox was a US exchange student at the time, and originally ended up being found guilty of murdering Kercher after two years in prison and an 11-month trial, with prosecutors portraying the crime as a sex game gone wrong.

Knox was sentenced to 26 years in prison until an appeals court overturned the conviction in 2011, with allegations that DNA evidence critical in pinning the crime on her could have been cross-contaminated.

Knox was then found guilty again in 2014, but refused to return to Italy to serve her sentence, and then that conviction was thrown out too the following year.

Meanwhile, Ivory Coast immigrant Rudy Guede was found guilty of murdering and assaulting Kercher in a separate trial, and he was sentenced to 30 years in prison before being freed in 2021.

Knox, now a podcast host and journalist, has hit headlines once again this week over a more mundane matter: her bizarre bedtime routine with her husband, Christopher Robinson.

Taking to X (formerly Twitter) to share the bizarre advice, she wrote: “You've been doing it wrong. The correct way to sleep with your partner is to swap sides of the bed each night.

“Better for your body, especially if you spoon, as you'll be laying on opposite shoulders each night, and better for your mattress to vary the indent pattern.”

Knox’s followers rightly pointed out that this would create havoc with nightstands and bedside drawers, with bed sharers becoming incredibly possessive of their side of the mattress.

One wrote: “Ehhhhh, I don't know about this one, friend. I like my spot.”

Another said: “I hate sleeping on the opposite side feels so weird and invasive when someone’s on MY side.”

Well, it turns out Knox isn’t the only one to make this unorthodox suggestion.

Pepper Schwartz, a sociology professor at the University of Washington, told Insider that side swappers are ‘freed from a kind of possessiveness about order that most of us have, and it makes their life a lot more flexible’.

That may be, but I’m still sticking rigidly to my side of the bed. Sorry, Amanda.
