Just a quick note to tell you, I am a big fan of the show and the work that you do, You seem incredibly warm , intelligent and sweet.. It is great to see the housewives of New York city! Peace.

I absolutely love you! You are the most genuine and giving person on the show. I currently live on Long Island, and my son could use some community service projects for high school. Any suggestions on what he could do for Creaky Joints? He is currently do a mailing to help the blind.
April 30th, 2009 at 8:53 am
what is your take on the whole Bethenny and Kelly issue? Granted, not everyone has to like each other, but Kelly seems a little off. Love you and love the show!
April 27th, 2009 at 6:15 am
Hi Jill. I just wanted to say that I admire you so much. I think you are a wonderful, REAL person. Not like the other Housewives. You and Bethenny should have your own show. You two are like the modern day Lucy and Ethel!! I think your friendship is real and genuine. Can’t wait to see what the future holds for you! Best of luck!

Jill, loved the statement you made from your Dad. “If you spend less than you have then you will always be rich”. I passed it on to my Grandchildren. It’s a good moto for them to live by.
What’s a “B Bag” ? Never hear of them. Tell us more.
Thanks !

Hi Jill-
I just recently started watching the show and I have to say that you are my favorite. I think you are down to earth, honest and very up front. It is hard to find genuine people in this world and I thank God for people like you. I also just received my copy of Traditional Home and I have to say your NY apartment looks fabulous!
I want to extend an invitation for dinner to you and your family when you are in LA. Please let me know and I will have to insist you all stay at the SLS Hotel in Beverly Hills and then we can take dinner. I would love to speak to you and Bobby in regards to your business and what made the two of you so successful. I can be reached on my cell phone at 818.458.2218. You can also read more about me on my website at http://www.MortazaEstates.com.
If nothing else comes of this, at least I was introduced to a wonderful human being. God bless you and your family Jill Zarin.

You Rock!
By the sounds of things the reunion show is going to have alot of antagonism.
I just hope Mario, Kelly, and Ramona (in that order) get put in their place! Ramona seems to be in hiding and letting Mario do all her blogging.
For those who criticize you buying a purse or getting a new car, they are just wishing it was them.
I love seeing you and Bobby together! A great couple that compliment each other. Like many others I agree, Mario has a crush you.!

Jill- I blogged about your interview with the BBC on RH of NYC, which aired this past week. I thought it was BRILLIANT. You are awesome. Thank you for reminding us that it is hard work that brings wealth and achievement.
PS- I don’t know why it is called “Real HOUSEWIVES” because you women actually work for your living!
April 24th, 2009 at 9:38 am
Jill, you look great. You look like you have lost weight. Are you on any special diet? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
April 24th, 2009 at 8:32 am
Dear Jill,
You are AMAZING … I would love to see you and Bethenny do more together. Love the show, …I’m 58 (also have Arthitis) and this is the fist reality show that my daughter (27) and I plan dinner around and watch and discuss afterwards. Also, I too felt that you handled the BBC interview great. I agreed with everything you replied …hard work pays off and you shouldn’t spend more than you earn and that goes for the GOVT too!!!!
Ya’ll have a invitation to come to Ft Worth, Texas …maybe the girls can go on a girls weekend to our woderful city! YeeeHaww!

Dear Jill
I live in Orange County,California and i often see the Orange county housewives, they are so fake and so annoying and what i see on tv and in real life. You new york girls are fun to watch ! You are my favorite! Dont ever be like the fake women out here in the OC!
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:55 pm
Jill!!
You and your family rock!! Please come over for dinner! - Bring Brad too, he’s so funny!
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:27 pm
You manage to save this show from being one running joke. I’d like to see you have your own show. You are a fascinating woman and are blessed with the common touch for one so wealthy. It makes you easy to relate to while having virtually nothing in common! I wish you the best and keep that wonderful outlook on life. You are also very pretty. Your good heart shows in your face.
April 23rd, 2009 at 6:17 pm
Jill ! You are the woman I wanted to be. I love your life. I love that your have a loving family, self-confidence and the money to buy whatever you want. I watch the show pretending I am you. You Rock!!
April 23rd, 2009 at 5:42 pm
Jill, You’ve got a little bit of Boston in you!! I knew there was a reason why I like you so much. You tell it like it is, and you don’t take any garbage from anyone. Bobby, he’s the best. Oh, and by the way, Ramona couldn’t even shine your shoes……she envies you. And her husband is a sap.
April 23rd, 2009 at 3:25 pm
Jill,
I emailed you on Bravo about donating a piece of jewelry that I design on for the creakyjoints charity on behalf of your daughter Ally. You can see my designs at http://www.grandglimmers.com. IF you feel one of my pieces would bring in donations please contact me. Again thiw ould be a donation.

Hi Jill,
Thank you and your daughter for all you have done for the Arthritis Foundation, and for the awareness that you and your daughter have brought by talking about JRA on your show. My son has JRA, (since he’s been 9 he’s now 13). No-one knows the struggles that these kids go through. My son takes Enbrel injections along with other autoimmune medications. If it wasn’t for people raising money for the Arthritis Foundation, these medications might not be available for my son, and without them he is virtually disabled. I keep my son involved by doing the Arthritis Walk, receiving the Arthritis Now magazine, and being an advocate anyway that he can. I believe by keeping your kids involved in the cause makes them more involved and responsible for their health. I’m also an RN, and have seen the devastating effects of arthritis on all age groups. Again, thank you so much.
April 23rd, 2009 at 9:45 am
OMG Jill… I love you!!! My coworkers and I are your biggest fans. Every Wednesday you are the topic of the water cooler conversations….
We all wish we had you as our Jewish Mother….. Keep it up… we love you….

Hi Jill! first of all, I want to start off by saying that you and Bethanny are my favorite housewives. That is why, I was so dissappointed in your attitude when Bobby surprised you with that beautiful SUV and you had the audacity to say that you still expected a birthday present. Furthermore, you told Bobby “I am not happy” because it had an ipod you did not like and some other perceived flaws. It is evident to me by these statements that you take your wealth and economic status for granted. It appears as if you don’t appreciate what you have. Meanwhile, there are people who have lost their homes and their jobs due to this economy. There are people living in their cars, for christ sake! On a personal note, my parents are financially struggling. Unfotunately, I am living paycheck to paycheck myself, therefore, I am unable to help them the way I would like to. This is why, I was so taken aback when you made these comments because if I had even half of what you had, I would be so happy and greatful. I do not begrudge you and Bobby your wealth. I know that you both worked very hard to get what you have. However, be more appreciative because you never know, it could be here today and gone tommorow . I have cousins who married well-off men and they would never react the way you did,if their husband was generous enough to surpirse them with an SUV.
Also, you are very lucky to be married to Bobby. From what I seen, he seems to be a very generous, patient, and caring man. You are also lucky to have Bobby because had that been any other man you said that to about the car, he would have taken it away from you and you would not have received anything else. Quite frankly, if he reacted that way, you would have deserved it. I am a single, attractive woman in her 30’s who is having difficulty meeting a good man. That is why I get so annoyed and sometimes angry with women like you who have men that treat them like queens, yet don’t show appreciation for your men. I have been watching the show for sometime now and from what I seen,I don’t doubt that you love Bobby and know that he is a good man. However, you’re reaction towards the car he surprised you with was just wrong.
On a positive note, you are still one of my favorite housewives and overall, you are a very generous and caring woman. I admire all of the charity work you do and you are a great mom to Ally. Ally is very pretty and she seems to be a lovely and intelligent young woman. I am sorry to hear that she is struggling with Arthritis at such a young age. However, she appears to be taking it in stride. On a final note, I loved your mom when she appeared on the show. She was very straightforward and honest. I also think Brad is a riot! Don’t worry, I am still a fan of yours because you’re positve traits outweigh the negative ones and no one is perfect :). Just try to be more appreciative of what you have.
Take care and I wish you continued success with the show!

I cannot beleive the BBC interviewer. He was so snooty to you. But the way you answered his questions was brilliant. As he is there trying to, I don’t know, make you feel “guilty” for working hard and being responsible all your life, you basically through him off about the school in Africa you helped build. What has he done? Other than be judgemental! I was yelling at the TV cheering you on. You go with your bad self!
April 23rd, 2009 at 12:02 am
Jill What Can I Say. I’am So Amazed By You! I Love Everything About You And Your Family. I Have Watched All The Shows Only Because Of You! I’m A Mother Of Two Boys And I Will Say If I Could Be Like Anybody In The World I Would Want To Be Like You! Jill You Have So Much Class And When You Need To Get Your Point Across Or Defend Your Self You Always Do It With Class. I’m So Happy That Your On The Show Wirhout You The Show Would Be To Childish And Full Of Nonsense! Please Never Let Mario Get To You! He’s Just Full Of Jealousy. I Think Mario And Romana Could Learn A Lot From You And Bobby. Everytime I Watch The Show I Feel Like Romana Should Be The Man In The Relationship And Mario Is The Lady Since He’s Starting More Catfights Than Romana. lol You Can Tell Who Wears The Pants In That Relationship. But I Must Say Is That You And Bobby Are A Perfect Couple When Yall Are Together You Can See The Love For Each Other and Yall Are A Team Together. I Have A Lot Of Respect For You And Your Bueatiful Family. Please Don’t Let No One Bring You Down! Thank You For Keeping It Real!!!

Jill, you are the best, I love you and Bethanny. Please you need to post a blog on this weeks episode, what a nerve of Kelly. You looked great in both costumes. TEAM JILL
April 22nd, 2009 at 8:55 pm
Jill…
Last night’s show was hysterical! You and Bethenny are by far the most entertaining because not only are your lives so exciting (because you have made them that way) but you are both so down to earth and real. I wish the show was devoted solely to the two of you with the others being on only when you invite them, especially Kelly because I just don’t vibe with her at all! Also, I can’t say it enough but I love how your apartment turned out…Just like you Fabulous!
April 22nd, 2009 at 8:49 pm
Jill your answers to the BBC interviewer were the best! what a fool he was trying to put you on the spot! You handled him wonderfully!
Please tell Silex to write a check to charity and leave the feed bag in the barn!!!!!!!!!
You and Bethanny are the best!!!
