The Real Housewives of New York City alum is giving a new look at her life in Australia with Simon van Kempen today.
Alex McCord has a lot to celebrate these days! The Real Housewives of New York City alum reached a major milestone in her career and in her marriage to husband, Simon van Kempen, and is pouring some champagne because of it.
Alex is now a psychologist living in Australia with her husband and their two sons, and is currently on her way to earning her PhD in clinical psychology. The mom of two recently took to Instagram, where she revealed that she is one step closer to finally receiving that degree and becoming Dr. Alex McCord within a matter of time.
In the photo, Alex can be seen standing in her home office, while clutching a bottle of champagne with a very excited look on her face. "Me walking away from my computer after submitting my PhD thesis to the examiners. The feedback and defense will come, but tonight....champagne," she noted, along with the words "I did it."
Alex has been very engaged in her studies for her PhD, but is also able to find the time to relax. She took to Instagram in April, where she revealed that she was able to take a study break on the beach "on the only sunny day."
