The Real Housewives of Jersey’s Tessa Hartmann steps Behind The Rope. Checking in from her home in the Channel Islands, Tessa is here to chat about it all now that the first season of Jersey has come to an end. Tessa chats about how she was cast, what filming was like, why she decided to join the cast of Jersey and how accurate, or inaccurate, she finds her edit to be now that the show has aired. Tessa fills us in on Housewives and Reality TV from across the pond and we discuss whether each are as big a deal over there as they are here in the States. On a larger note, we chat about Celebrity Culture in the modern day and age and whether we, as a world, have taken it too far. We cannot help but chat about what other Housewives she has heard from now that she is part of the legacy. We have two words for you - Lisa Rinna! We also discuss how many people across the world have reached out to her expecting to see her flipping tables with Teresa Giudice or throwing husbands in the pool with Margaret Josephs on The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Speaking of celebrity culture, we discuss Harry and Meghan - their move to the states, what Tessa and the rest of our friends oversees thought about that, and the “royal” perception of them now. We had to ask Tessa about her knowledge of the brilliantly classic Bravo series “Ladies of London” and her friendships with the cast in real life. We also had to ask about Daddy Andy Cohen and Tessa does not hold back in her message to him. Of course, we chat about the drama from Jersey this past season - hey some things are universal when it comes to Housewives no matter where in the world they are filmed. What an education this has been! @tessahartmann1 @hartmannhousejsy @behindvelvetrope @davidyontef Bonus Episodes Available at - https://www.patreon.com/behindthevelvetrope Brought to you by Care Of https://takecareof.com (Enter Code velvet50) Merch Available at - https://www.teepublic.com/stores/behind-the-velvet-rope?ref_id=13198 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
