The trio talk about Ali's refusal to cast Kate Middleton in a musical at St. Andrews, her start rocky experience in the media world, working with Brian Williams and her circuitous journey into the culinary world. Ali opens up about her infertility struggles, the obstacles many people face with surrogacy, having newborn twins during the height of the pandemic and the grief caused by the loss of her Mother-in-Law to Ovarian Cancer.

The trio has big plans to reunite and take New York City by storm, so stay tuned for updates.
