Helping Bethenny balance her life are ever-patient and loving fiancé Jason Hoppy, tireless assistant Julie, dedicated intern Max and beloved dog Cookie.
The Cast
Bethenny Frankel
This always-on-the-go workaholic manages her successful line of Skinnygirl Margaritas, two books on the New York Times Best Sellers list, and a career as a natural foods chef with a jam packed social calendar.
But Bethenny finally found time for what's most important - falling in love and starting a family. Now as she adds moving into a new apartment and preparing for her wedding and a baby to the mix - how will she juggle it all?
Jason Hoppy
The Manhattan businessman who finally swept Bethenny off her feet, helps to keep her grounded and calm when all things Bethenny move at warp speed. He enjoys golf, working out, playing basketball and experiencing all that New York has to offer with Bethenny and her beloved dog Cookie.
Julie Plake
Bethenny's hard-working, dedicated assistant helps keep her personal and business life in tact. After meeting Bethenny at an event in the Hamptons, she took on the task of organizing Bethenny's incredibly busy and never boring schedule, all while trying to find the time to balance her own life.
When she's not managing Bethenny's jam-packed calendar, she loves both watching and playing sports and cooking.
Max Meisel
This sports junkie came on board as Bethenny's intern to help manage the crazy workload. Often the butt of Bethenny's jokes, Max's thick skin and ability to roll with the punches has enabled him to transition from football jock to "Skinnygirl" connoisseur without breaking a sweat.
When he's not dropping off Bethenny's dresses at the tailor or diving into lengthy conversations about his passion for "cougars," he spends his time playing sports and writing screenplays.
The series is produced by Shed Media U.S. for Bravo. Jennifer O'Connell, Matt Anderson and Nick Emmerson serve as executive producers.
