The women in this series are all single. They are Kellie Frey, 32, Emily Gimmel, 24, Hadley Hartz, 26, Shea Johnson, 29, and Julie Smith, 34.
The first episode moves quickly as it introduces each Belle's personal story line. Frey is a two-time high-society divorcee learning to stand on her own two feet.
Shea Johnson is the girl waiting for her fiance to propose so she can start her life. She’s the one the audience will love to hate. Most of the show was about her, so we got to see what a bitch she is.
Johnson is a real-estate agent but was born into money. In the premiere, she's portrayed as totally at peace with her privileged life, which includes flying to Chicago in a private plane to shop for engagement rings. We get to sit in on a consultation in which the lowest-priced ring is $250,000. Does the boyfriend buy? Hell no.
Hadley Hartz's story line focuses on her learning to make the right career and companion choices.
Emily Gimmel describes herself as "The anti-Southern Belle." If that means losing an entertainment reporter job after being convicted of drunk-driving, then it makes sense.
Julie Smith, from Florence, Ky., is trying to break back into the modeling business at 34. She seems to have been thrown in gratuitosly,as the token black, like Kim Zolciak is the token white on The Real Housewives of Atlanta. Unlike Kim, however, she seems to have little or no story line, other than being (and looking) too old for modeling jobs other than “soccer mom”, as she was told by an agent.
Interesting enough for a “look-see”. On Soapnet
