Make A Wish Foundation Receives A
Huge Gathering In New York Benefit
The ultra luxurious Bruno Jamais Restaurant Club in Manhattan played host to Bravo TV's "Real Housewives of New York" Stars Alex Mc Cord and Simon van Kempen. The party was attended by hundreds of media eager to get the latest scoop on Alex and Simon's upcoming parenting book. "Johan, our youngest son appears more in season two because he's a bigger boy," "But with Francois, we have a star in the making," said Van Kempen to a People Magazine reporter at the event. Although season 2 premiers on February 17th, media who wanted the inside scoop on the reality antics and potential catfights among the housewives were left out in the cold as Alex and Simon had to remain mum on the exciting details. Guests were treated to delicious fare from Bruno Jamais Restaurant along with tasting tables from G'Vine Gin and Voodoo Tiki Tequila.
