“Jersey Belle” was a reality television show that aired on Bravo. The show premiered on August 4, 2014, and ran for one season with eight episodes. It followed the life of Jaime Primak Sullivan, a successful publicist, and entrepreneur who originally hailed from New Jersey but had relocated to Mountain Brook, a wealthy suburb of Birmingham, Alabama.

The show’s premise revolved around Jaime’s attempts to blend her brash and outspoken New Jersey personality with her new community’s more conservative and traditional Southern culture. As a “Jersey Girl” living in the South, Jaime faced cultural clashes and humorous situations as she navigated Southern society.

The show depicted Jaime’s interactions with her Southern friends and neighbors, showcasing her attempts to fit in while staying true to her authentic self.
