Dr. Jackie Walters Talks Married To Medicine And Her Beauty Collabs
Shifting back over to "Married to Medicine," how would you say your experience with this show has changed over the years?
It's become almost easier to deal with. I don't want to say "deal with" — that sounds negative. But it's become easier. We know each other; we know the expectations; we share our lives. It has become easier for me.
Speaking to you, you're such an authentic person. How do you stay true to yourself while living life in front of the camera?
Well, I'm going to tell you, after two breast cancers, chemo, radiation, and infertility, living out infidelity on TV — I have no shame. We started out with me saying I used my life as a teaching tool, and it's sometimes to tell people I messed up. I didn't get it right, I messed up with my friend, and [I'm] being transparent.
Are you thinking at all about the possibility of a Season 10 for the show yet? Or is that something where you'll cross that bridge when it comes?
Oh, no, I like that idea. That's a great suggestion!
Who do we have to talk to?
Yes. After people watch "Married to Medicine" this season, they can't get enough. I promise you, this is probably one of those seasons where everybody will be on the edge of their seat like, "What's happening next?"
We need more! Last season you guys had three reunions. Will you do that many again this season?
I don't get to decide that one, but I would love to think we may have to have four.
Do it bigger and better.
We got a lot to unpack this season.
What else do you watch on Bravo?
I absolutely love "The Real Housewives of Atlanta." You've definitely seen my patients, and nobody has better patients than me. I love "[The Real] Housewives of Potomac." You can never get enough of "Watch What Happens Live," so I love Andy [Cohen]. I love Andy. But those are my two big shows. I don't have a lot of time, but I make sure I set my DVR so if I can't see those two [live], I'm watching those.
I haven't watched "Housewives" yet, but those are going to have to get added to my watch list because I've heard so many great things ... Sounds like a good place to start.
They're good. They'll keep you going too. After you watch "Married to Medicine," then you can catch the "Real Housewives"!
New episodes of "Married to Medicine" air Sundays on Bravo at 9:00 p.m. EST/PST.
