Harsh Realities: Sydney Weekend Magazine

““I feel like I’ve come out of this season of the show, and into the next phase of my life, super excited. A lot of people are worried about change, but all the lessons in my life have brought me to this point and I’m really excited about the next phase.

I’m excited about my work. I’m excited about spending time with my husband and having adventures with him, and I’m excited about seeing my daughters grow up and get boyfriends and make friends and survive on their own and grow into women.

I’m excited about what the next chapter will bring – the anticipation is there, but it’s excitement, it’s not worry.””

Reality Rollercoaster: Sydney Housewives Back for Their Wildest Ride

““I think that it was a very intense season – but I think for the first time in a long time, I learned to speak up for myself, and when something didn’t feel right, I stepped away.

That was the lesson that I learned from this season – that nobody’s going to look out for you except you, so if it doesn’t feel right, then don’t pursue it. That’s how I was able to move forward with this season.””

From Miss Lebanon to Miss Australia, up close with Real Housewife Nicole Gazal-O’Neil

““It took a long time for Lebanese-Australians to be proud to be Lebanese,” Nicole says. But for her, this wasn’t an issue.

She’s always been very proud to be Lebanese and she has, in turn, passed this pride on to her daughters, now teenagers, who she says also feel connected to their Lebanese heritage.

Nicole regularly shared this on the show. “To me it was very important that my authentic self came through, and so much of me is my heritage.””

Homes to Love: Inside ‘The Real Housewives of Sydney’ star Nicole O’Neil’s grand-meets-cosy home

“For Swedish-Lebanese born star of The Real Housewives Of Sydney, Nicole O’Neil, hosting and homemaking come naturally. And although she has spent much of her life traversing the glove with her husband, Adam, and their two children, Neve and Nawal, it’s her home in Sydney’s east where she loves doing these things the most.

The self-described ‘impulsive’ and ‘passionate’ housewife and beauty brand entrepreneur tells of a home that is at once functional, impressive and relaxed, a place where she gathers with her tight-knit family and friends over a great TV show, a new baking recipe or simply just good food and drink.

We spoke to the glamorous Nicole about her equally glamorous life, how she spends her time in her Sydney pad, and what her future holds now that season 1 of The Real Housewives Of Sydney has wrapped.”

RHOS' Nicole O'Neil spills on why she didn't attend show's reunion

“Unfortunately, there was a clash of dates in regards to the reunion. There was never going to be a reunion, so it was only put into the schedule with two weeks’ notice. And I had a long-standing date in the diary that has been in the diary since February.

The producers, Binge, everybody was very well aware of that. And unfortunately, that must have been the only date that worked with everyone else. So you know, I unfortunately couldn’t attend because, you know, as I say, family always comes first.

I wish I could have attended the reunion because I’m not at all ashamed in any part about how I behaved, and I would be very happy to confront anyone who wants to discuss the show with me. I’m happy to answer anyone’s questions about situations or details, and I would have loved to have had my opportunity to defend myself and my position and my behavior. And unfortunately, that just wasn’t the case.”

We wrote an open letter to The Real Housewives of Sydney. They've responded.

“Nicole has had moments in her life where she’s been in and out of the workforce. “I’ve worked and I’ve also not worked and spent time with my kids. When I wasn’t working, I was giving time to the school, the parents association, or helping make costumes for a school play – there’s always something to do as a parent.”

She worked in the earlier years of her children’s lives but stopped working through her kids’ teen years. “I was much happier as a person when I was working. I had weekends away from my kids and long nights away. But when I was there, I was much happier because I was feeling satisfied with my day.”

Both women agree that whatever way women decide to raise their children, it should be their choice.

”Women are very quick to drag other women down,” Nicole said.

”I think having lived both sides of the coin, I feel very passionate about it because I can see both sides.” ”

Real Housewives of Sydney stars Krissy Marsh and Nicole O’Neil on overcoming season one stigma

““I had to remind Krissy of how much fun we had during filming, and I think that’s what convinced her in the end. Life’s too short! Being one of seven women chosen to be a Real Housewife of Sydney? What an incredible opportunity! What an adventure!”

And Marsh vowed this season would be different, delving deeper into the women’s family lives and their actual, genuine friendships, rather than just conflict for the cameras.

Asked if they were prepared for The Real Housewives of Sydney to stick around a bit longer, second time around, O’Neil said they’d be taking the show “one season at a time.”

“All we know is we’re proud of our behaviour,” she said.”
