Real Housewives of New York City star, Alex McCord, was just laid off from her visual merchandising job at Victoria’s Secret.
“Now I’m more a Real Housewife than I ever have been before!” McCord tells People Magazine. “The whole time this show’s been on people have said ‘Define this term housewife,’ ‘Are you a real housewife?’ And I always said, ‘Well, I own a house and I am a wife! But now I’m a real housewife.”
The layoff was not related to McCord’s being on the Bravo reality show. The loss of her full-time job was one of 90 positions cut at the company’s New York headquarters — part of a 10-percent reduction in the brand’s workforce.
Simon van Kempen (Alex’s gay-looking husband) says, “Alex has got until the end of April [when her severance package runs out] to replace her income, otherwise we’ll have to start cutting back on discretionary income.”
“If we need to make cutbacks, that’s easy: don’t go shopping!” McCord notes. As for their annual trips to St. Barth’s, “That’s still happening. But if it comes to needing to make cutbacks, I would rather not shop than have to add to the unemployment by laying off our nanny. And that has nothing to do with not wanting to take care of our children … She has a family as well, and that would be terrible for her.”
How wonderful Alex and Simon are doing their part by keeping their nanny on staff! And poor Alex have to cut back on shopping. Ok I think I will go puke now!
