Join co-hosts Linda Franklin TheRealCougarWoman.com and Bonnie D. Graham Up Close & Personal as they chat with beautiful 50-something Quinn Fry from the 3rd season of Bravo TV's The Real Housewives of Orange County. They'll ask Quinn the questions everyone wants to know about her stint as a Real Cougar Woman on TV – and what REALLY happens behind the scenes on reality TV!



Quinn Fry is living the California dream, but not without working hard for it. Her career as an internet marketing manager and an Orange County entertainment website managing editor keeps her busy attending large charity gala events, local OC hot spots and restaurant openings. She is also a professional interior decorator. Divorced for nearly 16 years, Quinn has been head of the household for her two children. She is also navigating the world of dating-Orange County style. Never admitting she's over 30, Quinn has a weakness for younger men, which keeps her attitude young and vibrant.
