Gail Simmons has one in the oven — and no, it’s not a batch of cookies.
“Top Chef” judge Gail Simmons is expecting her first child with husband Jeremy Abrams. The baby is due this winter, Simmons’ rep confirmed to People Magazine.
Simmons married Abrams, head of the music programming company Audiostiles in 2008. Their Long Island City wedding was featured in Martha Stewart Weddings.
The 37-year-old is slated as head critic on the new season of Bravo’s “Top Chef Masters,” which premieres next week.
In an 2010 interview with the Forward, Simmons traced back her love of food to her mother, a food writer for The Globe and Mail in the 1970s and 80s, and her Jewish upbringing. “We had Shabbat dinner every Friday night, without fail,” she said. “There was always challah and my mother’s outstanding chicken soup.”
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning journalism this Passover.
In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.
At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.
Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we still need 300 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.
