Katie Rost grew up in a wealthy legacy family in Maryland. In fact, Katie and her mother run the Ronald F. Rost Charitable Foundation in memory of Katie’s father, who died in 2000.

She was sent to the top private schools and groomed to be a doctor or lawyer, but instead moved to New York City to pursue a career in modeling.

According to her Bravo bio,

“A vivacious beauty with girl-next-door charm, Katie has big dreams and electric ambition. In 2009, Katie was asked by Vogue Magazine editor Anna Wintour to join The Vogue 100 List, a group of intriguing and fashionable women from around the country who act as arbiters of style.”

Katie married her college sweetheart Dr. James Orsini, but as she shares on the show the two “had the exact same personality” and the relationship quickly turned in to a friendship.

She has been dating investment executive Andrew for over a year now and hopes that Andrew will propose.
