Elizabeth Holmes' husband was worried that his fraudster wife could be scamming him, he admits in the trailer for a new documentary.
Director Nathan Fielder moved in with Holmes and followed her with a film crew for 34 days while she prepared to serve her 11-year prison sentence.
In 2022, Holmes, 42, pled guilty to four counts of fraud after it was discovered that her biotech company, Theranos, was misleading its investors about its technology.
Theranos claimed it could conduct hundreds of blood tests using only a single drop of blood obtained through a finger prick, causing the company's value to skyrocket to $9 billion, but a series of The Wall Street Journal articles exposed the fraud.
A trailer for the highly-anticipated You Can See Everything, an A24 documentary, featured several dramatized glimpses into the private home life of the convicted fraudster and her husband Billy Evans, heir to the billion-dollar Evans Hotel Group.
Holmes and Evans met in 2017, two years after The Wall Street Journal published their expose. The couple has since welcomed two children, a son and a daughter, in the last five years.
Holmes's husband believes he fell in love with her before he learned she was behind the Theranos fraud, he revealed in a conversation with Fielder.
'I fell in love in that first conversation,' he stated.

When Fielder asked him if he was ever suspicious that his wife was after his family's fortune, Evans furrowed his brow in confusion.
'100%, but what was she going to gain from me?' he said.
'Isn't your family rich...?' Fielder responded.
Evans deflected with a generalization: 'There's a lot of different levels of wealth,' he said before the video cuts off.
Evans assured Fielder that he has never been suspicious of Holmes lying to him in a one-on-one conversation shown in the trailer.
The trailer features silent footage of the couple jogging along a foggy beach together, holding hands in their kitchen, and holding one of their two young children while sitting on the rainbow-colored floor of a playroom inside their beachfront home in San Diego, California.
The aforementioned shot was instinctively filmed through the bars of a crib, which cast a blurry grid over Holmes, foreshadowing what's to come as she prepares for her incarceration.
'I still have this weird feeling that there are some things I'm not seeing,' Fielder says to Holmes, his face directly confronting hers as the trailer comes to its dramatic climax.
'I don't have anything to hide,' Holmes said, staring deeply into Fielder's eyes, inches away from his looming gaze.
