About The Real Housewives of New York City Season 1

In the hyper-competitive world of Manhattan high society, supreme social connector Jill Zarin fiercely protects her inner circle while navigating the elite charity circuit alongside her closest confidante, witty culinary entrepreneur Bethenny Frankel. Operating on a completely different plane is Luann de Lesseps, whose rigid demands for etiquette as a European Countess clash with ambitious Brooklyn outliers Alex McCord and her husband Simon’s desperate attempts to climb the social ladder. Bustling through it all is filterless fashion buyer Ramona Singer, whose blunt critiques and erratic energy constantly disrupt the polite veneer of their gatherings and ignite intense tension with Alex.
