Why did Janine Turner's career fall off a cliff after Northern Exposure

[TMC]

Bare in mind that this is merely a blind item, so we have to take this with a grain of salt:

205. ENTERTAINMENT LAWYER 05/16 **#14**
The Courtesan: I am trying to think of someone less likely to be courtesan, but am having trouble bringing anyone to mind. There was the former A- list network actress from a long running hit show about a northern state that was shocking. She also kept to very familiar circles and was seen as someone you needed in your corner or on your arm or in your bed if you wanted to succeed in politics. The one I am talking about right now was once A list. A celebrity. She did reality once or twice and the results were pretty horrific. Plus, she was so horrific to other cast and crew that she was essentially barred from any sort of US television landscape. She is foreign born, and became famous worldwide for someone she married rather than anything she did on her own. She has had some attempts at television in her home country and other celebrity making endeavors, but much like here, no one wanted to work with her. Over the past several years, she has been seen in private clubs and gambling rooms on the arm of much older men who are all very wealthy. She provides a service. She can be discreet and she made her fortune by servicing a much older man and making him feel special. She translated that into tens of millions of dollars. Right now, she is looking for the same type payoff, but she is having trouble getting men to divorce their current spouses. They are happy with paying our celebrity a retainer of the equivalent of $100K per year to make herself available whenever they need her. She has about a dozen men on the payroll and does what she wants and travels in the circles she wants and continues to treat those she considers beneath her like crap. Oh, before I forget, there was a judge she slept with for a month to get a favorable ruling for her in an important case.

I know that outside of Northern Exposure around this time period, she was in Cliffhanger and the Leave to Beaver movie as June Cleaver. She did do another series on Lifetime called Strong Medicine. That ran six years, although she only stayed for about two years. It seems like the cover story that Janine has used is that she had a baby and wanted to move back to her home in Texas. She became more selective about her appearances (like in Friday Night Lights) because she was raising her kids.
