Meanwhile, style insiders say Haart’s role in the fashion world is also distorted on the series. The show follows Haart, 50, her four kids and her second husband, Elite owner Silvio Scaglia, and includes lots of scenes of her railing against her past life in an “extreme” community” - a characterization that another old friend, Roselyn Feinsod, disputes.
#Life julia haart bares more than series
“She says she was held captive, but that’s not true.” Julia Haart’s transformation from an Orthodox Jewish to a sexy fashion designer is a focus of her Netflix reality series “My Unorthodox Life” - which some say is unreal. “Julia’s hanging on to this word ‘fundamentalism’ - and sensationalism sells,” said a former friend of Haart’s from Monsey. It’s a fairy tale of how she fled her Orthodox Jewish community in Monsey, NY, to make her way in the fashion world: launching her own own shoe line, becoming creative director at the luxury fashion brand La Perla and, now, serving as the CEO of Elite World Group - a talent agency which includes Elite Model Management and represents the likes of Kendall Jenner, Iman and Helena Christensen.īut insiders say that she is painting an ugly, unfair picture of life in her former community - as uneducated and so restrictive it left her suicidal. “When I had gone to my mom and told her she was like, ‘We love Ben so if you want to stay with him or leave him, we support you.On the buzzy Netflix reality series “ My Unorthodox Life,” sexy, glamorous Julia Haart has quite a story to tell. “I’m so thankful for my family because they really supported me in either direction,” Batsheva continues. Batsheva Haart says she is "so thankful" for her family's support amid her divorce. “She’s just the most supportive woman I know,” Batsheva tells. Haart, clad in leopard-print pajamas, puts her head in her hands and says, “I cannot believe we’re both getting divorced at the same time.” She continues, “Now we’re both single ladies.” They seem in awe of their lives’ latest plot line: “I’m trying to find the humor of it all,” Batsheva responds.Īccording to Batsheva, the experience brought mother and daughter together, especially after she moved back in with Haart. When Season Two opens, the mother and daughter sit on the bed in pajamas, commiserating over their similar situations. In November 2021, Batsheva and her husband Ben Weinstein, whom she married at 19, also split up. Haart, per legal documents, contended that Scaglia could not remove her from her position at EWG because she owned half of the company. In February, Scaglia sued Haart, accusing her of illegally withdrawing $850,000 from a Freedom Holding account, the company that owns Elite World Group, after learning she had been terminated as CEO. Scaglia and Haart’s contentious proceedings have already played out in court rooms and are now making their way onto the Netflix show. Scaglia also accused Haart of misappropriating funds, which she denies. Scaglia, owner of La Perla and Elite World Group, then fired her from her position as CEO in a scene caught by cameras and featured in the show’s second season. The season tracks the fallout Julia Haart tells she doesn't think marriage is "for her." NetflixĪfter over two years of marriage, Haart filed for divorce from Scaglia, La Perla CEO, in February 2022.
If Season One was the tale of Haart’s status quo in New York with her family - from fashion shows with her daughters to time with billionaire husband Silvio Scaglia - then Season Two watches what happens when everything changes: Both Haart and her eldest daughter Batsheva Haart go through divorces around the same time.
“If they’re going to find out about it, isn’t it better that they find out about it from their parents than from porn?” she tells of the premiere of Season Two of “My Unorthodox Life” on Dec.
