When rumors got out that Bravo TV’s Real Housewives franchise was casting for a show locally, women from Merion to Wayne speculated on who’d actually have the chutzpah to open their personal lives to millions of viewers. One name thrown around was Carie Brescia.
Brescia isn’t technically a housewife, but the Ardmore resident is divorced and does have a 13-year-old son. Flawlessly gorgeous, she has a physique that screams “Pilates instructor,” and her active social life revolves around favorite haunts on Rittenhouse Square. She also has an enviable job as NBC 10’s makeup artist.
What Brescia doesn’t have is the self-absorbed mean streak many of the more compelling Housewives possess. But she does have a new business to promote.
As it turns out, the rumors of Bravo TV’s cameras invading the Main Line were unfounded. For her part, the 40-year-old Brescia (“I used to lie about my age, but now I own it.”) isn’t sold on Real Housewives, anyhow. “I’m up for doing shows that send positive messages about my brand,” she says.
