After appearing on The Real Housewives of New York City for Seasons 1 through 4, Alex McCord made a major move: the mother of two now lives in Australia with her family, where she seems to have stumbled upon the fountain of youth.

Alex once quipped that her modern-day RHONY tagline would be "no Botox, just brains," and a recent selfie proves that whatever she's doing (or not doing), she's hardly aged a day since we saw her with a golden apple in hand. 

In an April 3 selfie, Alex smiled brightly for the camera. "Actually not too bad, for a random Thursday morning without a second coffee," she wrote. Not bad is right — and Alex's followers agree. One wrote in the comments: "Is this a TBT pic or do you just not age at all?"

A mother of two teenage boys, Francois and Johan, Alex has been living in "Oz" with husband Simon Van Kempen since 2014. "I think it's really important to see the rest of the world," she once told The Daily Dish. "Even if they wind up coming back to New York, which is completely fine and I would imagine Francois probably will, if you live your entire life in New York and that's all you know, you're in a bubble. So you need to see the rest of the world, because the rest of the world is not like New York."

But even though she's far from the Big Apple, Alex does manage to stay in touch with some of its most riveting residents. In 2017, she told The Daily Dish: "I keep in touch with some of my former castmates. I'm a really terrible correspondent, but a lot of them are pretty good, so they'll email me once or twice a year and we'll have a little back-and-forth. Jill [Zarin]'s a great pen pal. I've talked to Sonja [Morgan], Ramona [Singer]Andy [Cohen]."
