Dorinda Medley has joined the cast of season 7 of the Real Housewives of New York City and the socialite is sharing some fun facts about herself via Bravo and the New York Post. Find out more about Dorinda below.
She’s rubbed shoulders with royalty!
Dorinda once started a cashmere company in London that counted Princess Di as a devoted customer. “It was 1989. I got Princess Diana to be one of my clients, and project [the company] forward with the British classes,” she says.
She loves a good cocktail.
She can’t resist a good martini—the dirtier, the better. “Nothing is more elegant than a martini glass,” she says.
She isn’t afraid of confrontation.
Dorinda finds some forms of fighting to be an educational experience. “I like to see a good argument between two people,” she says. “I think you learn when you argue. It’s just an expression of your opinion.”
She’s a fan of the Berkshires!
The Massachusetts native shares one thing with Heather Thomson right off the bat—she finds the Berkshires “incredible!!!!”
She mixes business with pleasure.
After ten years in London, Dorinda returned to the Big Apple and became a real estate broker, which is how she met her second husband. Seven months after selling Richard Medley, a hedge fund adviser, a swanky townhouse on the Upper East Side, the two started dating. “If I had known I was going to be living there, I would have gotten the bigger townhouse,” she notes.
Her hardships have made her stronger.
Richard passed away in 2011, but Dorinda insists that facing adversity has helped her grow. “I’ve been presented with a lot of different challenges and that’s why I wasn’t afraid to be on the ‘Housewives,” she explains. “The whole point is to keep going forward and try again.”
She’s not the only Housewife whose daughter has some modeling chops.
Proud mother to 21-year-old daughter Hannah, Dorinda isn’t shy to show off her daughter. “#tbt of my gorgeous daughter on holiday in Greece,” she titled a photo on Instagram.
