After seeing (what feels like) a million previews for it, Bravo debuted their FIRST scripted series, Girlfriends’ Guide to Divorce, last night.
Based on the Girlfriends’ Guide series by Vicki Iovine, the show revolves around Abby, the author of said Girlfriends’ Guides.
Though she writes about all things related to family, in last night’s episode, she reveals to the world (via TODAY) that her husband, Jake, is cheating on her — though they are still living together, for the kids.
To cope, and to get advice, she starts hanging out with the local “poster moms for divorce” — two girlfriends and a lawyer who’ve recently survived splits.
The thing is… now that she’s revealed the secret of her life, will her career as the perfect mom and wife author survive?
I think I’m really going to like this series! I’m a sucker for any show/movie about writers of course, and it’s refreshing to see something about the OTHER side of love, because we all know it doesn’t always end up so great.
What did you think of the show? It airs on Bravo Tuesdays at 10/9pm C.
