Season 3
Season 2
Season 1
Welcome back, RHONY viewers!!!!!! I know we all had to wait a little longer for this season to start, but think you'll find it has been worth the wait. Don't you love the line "thug in a cocktail dress"? Simon and I launched a partnership today to raise money for Housing Works.
So we begin the season with Turtle Time. If you had told me a few years ago that Simon and I would have wound up becoming such close friends with Ramona and Mario, I'd have said you were crazy. However, that's exactly how it has played out and we are beyond thrilled for them with the new pinot grigio (which happens to be very tasty, and we're serving it at our party tonight; everyone should buy some.)
I was having a great time at the party until Jill walked in. I hadn't spoken to her once since the reunion in May, and all summer when Simon and I were on tour for Little Kids, Big City I kept hearing from mutual friends that she was up to her usual shenanigans, gossiping about us and trying to figure out what we were up to without ever picking up the phone. No wonder I looked uncomfortable as H-E-double hockey sticks; I am only surprised my neck wasn't bright red.
Note to self, when trying to extricate oneself from an awkward situation at parties, don't down the last of your drink and say you're going to the bar for a top up, at least more than once. Otherwise, you look like a lush. Oy.
Alex has been beatup and embarrassed by a lot ofthe girls...I think Alex has received a voice loud and clear and that and about time...How about the other ladies,it seems that since they have always spoken their mind..Good for Alex for speaking out. Sonja was rude demanding she only wanted it to be about SonJa. Alex keep up your class while all the other Ladies try to maintain some
YOU GO GIRL!!!!!!!! Alex, you and Ramona are the ONLY reasons I still watch NY housewives. Can they do a show with just the two of you?!!
Alex,
You need to move on over last season and stop obsessing about it. You and Jill are like oil and water, and I doubt that will ever change. Accept that fact and move on. BTW, your photos are goegeous!
Hi Alex,
I'm so glad to see you back this season. I've always liked the way you take the high road. You have a calm demenour and when you talk, you're the most mature one. But, I think that you are now determined not to be walked on and are over-compensating. You come off aggressive with an I'll show you attitude. You're losing your power. You're power is calm maturity-don't let Jill make you lose that. Make more alliances against Team Jill.
@Petie@Alex that was beautifully put. I couldnt put the words together I was feeling for Alex...what was happening to her. Taking the high road against the other housewives sent chills through me. Dont loss it.
Relax girlfriend! Who cares if Jill is going to the wedding or whatever. We lose our focus that way and you have such a good heart. Stay in the "river" and you'll always find the sea. Focus on the good in others and you will always find peace. None of us are perfect, right. Not a question...
Alex always use to be the calm one in the group that got everyone back together...shes getting too wrapped up in the drama and shes starting it herself. Why would you call Jill out in front of a bunch of people at a wedding? If it bothers her that much, act like an adult and do it in private.
You and Ramona are my favorites. I am so glad to see that you found your voice. Jill and LuAnn have been the mean girls for years and it is time that someone besides Ramona is standing up to them.
Alex,
On the episode when you where looking at your modeling pics on yhe computer while on the phone with your agent... where did you get that necklace you're wearing? It's gorgeous!
Thanks!
Love you! Don't listen to anyone btw. I like the way you are this season. It's great to see you not holding back.
Best to you and your family.
Honestly, the New York Housewives would be a dud without you. You are my favorite because you are Real, Beautiful and Smart! I am still mad at Ramona for what she put you through last season. And I love how you don't put up with Ramona's BS!
Unfortuantely, I can't share the sentiments of many people who are leaving messages on this blog. But you are beginning to look like you are trying to hard take it from Jill last season that doesn't work for everyone and its soooo not working for you. You are becoming annoying and I almost hate it when a scene that focus on you start. Sorry :(
Alex, it really seems everyone is out to get you this
to get you this season. I dont think
that you haave done anything
wrong. I think it's great that you
are a model and I know for sure
that everyone is jealous of
you. Please let us know where
we can see your pictures;

I have to agree with Paulette, do not reduce yourself to Jill. Let it go! Please, let it go and enjoy your life and do not worry about Jill, or anyone else for that matter. Just enjoy!
Alex,
You are now the heart and soul of the show. Ramona is too. Without you there, it could be called "Fake TV", as opposed to reality TV. You saw the truth, thought it over, and finally decided to tell it like it is. Ramona goes back and forth, but I think she see's things as they truly are. Thank-you ladies for standing up to the other women, pushing them to reveal themselves for what they really are: People with money who have no class at all. You're a classy lady, Alex, in the truest sense of the word. I wish you and your family all the happiness possible to have.
Nan :-)
Alex, you're the reason I'm back to watch the 4th season. I would NOT miss Jill, Luann or crazy Kelly. Best to you and Simon and the boys!
You and Ramona are my favorites!!!
I think you have a good way about you. But, pick your battles. When and how Jill found out you were going to be at the wedding is not that important. There may come a day when an issue is really important and people will be turned off by what appears as you picking fights. Stay strong. You represent us well.
I don't know, Alex, seems to me you moved from living and working in Brooklyn to being back in high school, just like you accused Jill of last season. You need to tone it down a bit.
I say go for it, Alex! Speak up and be heard. Don't tone down a thing- you'd be boring and stuffy like Luann.
Why do you think it's you job to put Jill in her place? Why don't you do you, and let her do her? You say you are such great friends with Ramona but seem to have forgotten all the things she said. Let this thing with Jill go ... just let it go.
Welome back!! So good to see you and Simon again.......hope he writes his blog as the season thickens, so to speak.
Anyway, we all know this is already in the can, so no point in advising you to quit doggin' Jill......it's done, and we'll have to see how it plays out.
However it shakes down, I'm on your team.
Jill is what she is and who she is........she will change when and if she needs to. Truthfully, I don't see that happening as she has Bobby to love and accept her as she is and protect her even when she's wrong. She has a loving family and all the money she needs to live a really good life, so she may never change a thing about the way she operates in this lifetime.
There are people like this who seem to get along just fine, and until something happens to change their life dynamic they won't change as they have no reason to do so.
Save your breath and your agita, work around her.
Let's get rollin' with some Silex and the Chums, that's where your strength lies.
Go Team Alex!! YAY!!
Alex,
As a gay guy, I really appreciate your support of the March for Marriage Equality. Throughout the episode Ramona seemed dismissive of the issue and almost (gasp) Republican. Just curious what your thoughts are about Ramona's response to you, particularly at the cocktail party when she laughed at your invitation and said you needed to "lighten up, it's a party." (easier for her to say-she has the right to marry)
Alex does not have the backbone to ask Ramona, nor confront her amongst a group of people on an important issue. When Alex says she found her voice, it means she can speak up like a high school girl and bully someone. Honestly, the march across the Brooklyn Bridge probably benefited Alex socially, not for the greater good of marriage equality.
Enough with the Republican gasp.
Love you Alex! Please don't bring yourself down to Jill's level, you're so much better than that! Best of luck with your new modeling career!
Alex! Keep it up!!! I am happy to see how you are standing your ground and not letting others get in your way! I can't believe how Jill tries to change her story!!! Way to confront and calling her out! Looking forward to the rest of the season! :-)
Alex,
I am so glad that you are back on and that you have such a new attitude. I always thought of you as the level headed one but quiet. I can identify with you because I am that way. I am just glad that last season you got your voice and that it was loud and clear. LOVE IT!!!!! Don't let Jill or anyone else mess with you. Congrats on your modeling gig, you are truly beautiful. Your kids are lucky to have such wonderful parents. Have a great season.
I think we are over you confronting Jill about old stuff everytime you see her. Get over it and move on.
Alex. I think you look fabulous this season, better than ever before. I am happy you are speaking up like never before.
Hi Alex, I think it is terrific that you are speaking up for yourself with these nasty petty women, but I do think you should pick your battles since they'll give you plenty to pick from. Be selective. Take a cue from Bethenny be yourself good or bad and you'll win in the end because I think you are a decent person. Don't care too much about the brand names, they truly mean nothing to a person of value.
you are looking bad... An old friend told me something profound & I think you should heed.
"Do you want to be RIGHT or do you want PEACE in your life."
Alex,
While watching you on the show this season, the old adage "choose your battles" comes to mind. With these ladies, there are going to be contradictions and disagreements...it is reality tv! Be careful not to "battle" the ladies over every little issue. Confronting Jill about whether or not she knew that you were attending a wedding? Really? It makes you look petty and juvenile, which I don't think you are.
Why did you feel the need to confront Jill about the fact that you were headed back home after the wedding for the march and she was not? That's her choice. When you announced the march to the ladies at the party you said "I expect to see all of you there" Not everyone wants to participate in what is important to you and you can't blame anyone for that. I'm sure it is important to many people to NOT participate in the march. Get off your high horse.
Alex, You are WONDERFUL !! I am so thrilled to have you back on the show - please continue being you & do not let Jill get away with anything - she is a trip to watch - "hypocritijill" !!!
TEAM ALEX !!
Alex, I am all for having a voice but do you have to sound off about EVERYTHING? Whew! It just seems that every time you are in Jill's presence, you go off: Forgive and forget. You have said out of your own mouth that you're not going to let Jill get away with anything and you're living up to that 100% but I think you're going about it the wrong way. You can "police" people to the point where no one wants to be bothered and out of all of the housewives, you are the smartest and likeable. Please pullback!
Alex, think you're fun; however, reading Jill's blogs it seems she is willing to forgive and forget, but you continue to take snips. Let it go! Enjoy each other; follow Simon's lead!!! Life is just too short to pick!
it seems funny that ramona put you down in the first seasons and now your are best friends. i like that you found your voice, but you are no better than the other girls. jill gets so much crap for talking bad and you and ramona do the same thing and jill gets the short end of the stick. it seems that most of the other women don't like you. so that should be a hint you. i don't like what i see. the look on your face when jill walks in is priceless. that should be bravos remix.
I am loving the new you! I am only going to care for you and Ramona, I miss Bethanny.
Enjoy you and Ramona! Stay true to you.
ALEX,
I THINK YOUR MODELING PICTURES WERE REALLY BEAUTIFUL. I DON'T THINK THERE'S ANYTHING WRONG WITH SAYING YOU SWIM IN A GOOD GENE POOL. IT REVEALS CONFIDENCE!
I HOPE YOUR NEW BUSINESS VENTURE TAKES OFF FOR YOU AND SIMON.
I REALLY ADMIRE THE WAY HE LOOKS AT YOU AND TALKS ABOUT YOU. RAMONA'S HUSBAND SEEMS EQUALLY AS DEDICATED.
YOU'RE RIGHT, I DON'T THINK JILL CAN IGNORE WHAT HAPPENED LAST YEAR, BUT SHE NEVER COPS TO ANYTHING COMPLETELY. THE PROBLEM IS, IF YOU GET UPSET, YOU OWN IT & SHE WINS. JILL WON'T/HASN'T CHANGED...BUT SHE'S GONNA CONTINUE TO SELL THAT AS OFTEN AS SHE CAN IN THE HOPES SHE CAN ERASE SOME OF THE DAMAGE SHE DID LAST YEAR. SHE'S MEAN-SPIRITED, SNARKY AND A HUGE SNOB. YOU ALWAYS ACT LIKE A LADY, SO TRY TO PICK THE BATTLES CAREFULLY, SO YOU DON'T END UP MORE UPSET THAN YOU NEED TO BE. PLUS, I TRULY BELIEVE JLL ZARIN LOVES TO SEE OTHER PEOPLE'S FEATHERS GET RUFFLED. DON'T GIVE HER THE SATISFACTION! BEST OF WISHES TO YOU AND YOUR HUSBAND!
Alexis, you are one of my favorites, however, in the first epsiode, you seemed to have a gigantic chip on your shoulder. Let it go!
Alex, I think if you want to confront Jill with the issues you have with her, you should do it in person. People tend to act differently when they're in a group and I think both of you would let your guards down appropriately. I don't expect a tight friendship to come out of it but perhaps you could both walk away from it better people. At least one could only have hopes for Jill, she seems to be that leopard that can't change her spots. You, on the other hand, are a better person than what you presented in the first episode. Life is too short to worry about the petty gossip of others.
Alex, I think all of us are glad to see that you have in fact found you voice were Jill is concerned. I'm sure after 3 seasons of having her crapp all over you and your family you've had enough. But, be careful that she doesn't try to make you look like the bad guy, we all know how Jill plays the game. Congrat's on your modeling you look beautiful, this may really be your year to shine. I'm pulling for you TEAM ALEX!!!!!!!!!!!
I love you and your loving and beautiful family Alex. I think you are very well spoken and I'm glad for you on your new career. However, I think Jill is right about not wearing white or cream to a wedding. My wedding dress was a tealength crocheted silk lace over a satin shell. Similar to Ramona's dress only with cap sleeves and more expensive materials. I just think it can take away from the bride being the spotlight, so I agree with going along with the tradition and not wearing white at a wedding. Otherwise I'm a big fan and I do wish you well and am looking forward to the new season!
Dear Alex, the pix of you with the modeling agency are HOT!!! Congrats! If any of the other ladies have anything negative to say they are just jealous! As a 36 yr old myself, I am so proud to see someone my age embarking upon a career in that field. You will go far I am sure because you are exquisite inside and out!!! Much love from South Texas!!!
Hi Alex..
Glad you are not sitting back when Jill insults you, anymore. But, you don't need to pick away at her. As some others have said, pick your battles. We know what Jill is.. Let her put her foot in her mouth, all by herself.
It seems that you are trying to reinvent yourself as a harsh and aggressive woman (like the rest of the housewives), but it just doesn't work for you. I think what people liked about you was your softness and indifference to the other women constantly stirring the pot. Be careful when you go after those alpha females, you might get the short end of the stick.
