“Whether it was studying in between modeling jobs at age fourteen, practicing hours on end every day for national swim competitions or learning at the feet of master professional chefs, I have always been driven to make generations of my family proud. It’s in my blood”
Working with the Oppenheim group while the cameras haven’t been rolling since filming wrapped last season, Emma told People that she’s certainly closer to some co-workers than others.
“I think I would probably say I’m closest with Mary (Fitzgerald) and Chrishell (Stause), but that’s nothing against anyone else”
