'RHONY Season 14': Who is Jessel Taank? Fashion publicist and businesswoman is a master problem solver

Jessel Taank has worked with some of the biggest fashion brands as a fashion publicist

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: 'Real Housewives of New York' Season 14 features a dynamic new cast, which will add glamour and drama into the beloved franchise. Led by influential figures, this diverse lineup promises new adventures and more juicy drama. 

Jessel Taank, one of the new faces on the show, is a successful fashion publicist and businesswoman owner with a creative approach to PR. She has worked with some of the biggest fashion brands and will now bring her panache to the Bravo show. 

Who is Jessel Taank?

Jessel, a dynamic publicist and savvy businesswoman, started working in the US after graduating from London's prestigious King's College with degrees in English and journalism. Settling in the vibrant city of New York, she quickly established herself as a sought-after brand consultant and fashion publicist, collaborating with renowned fashion brands including Michael Kors, Victoria Beckham, Stella McCartney, Celine and Westfield. With an innate ability to think "outside the box," Jessel constantly challenges the status quo, infusing her creative ideas into traditional PR approaches.

Beneath Jessel's professional success lies a captivating tale of balancing multiple roles—a devoted wife, a new mother to twin boys and a master problem solver. Despite her remarkable achievements, she grapples with the challenge of sharing intimate details of her life with her strict Indian parents overseas, their traditional values often clashing with her vibrant British sense of humor and the New York sensibilities that surround her. Her multifaceted journey promises to be a blend of ambition, wit and cultural dynamics.

Who is Jessel Taank's husband?

Jessel is married to Pavit Randhawa, an entrepreneur who serves as the president of Phone Daddy, a prominent telecommunications company headquartered in Dallas. Their love story unfolds with a charming twist, as they were introduced to each other by a mutual friend in a bar in New York City. Despite not experiencing an instant romantic connection, they nurtured a deep friendship while living together as roommates for several years. Eventually, their bond evolved into a blossoming romance. In Season 14, she will reveal the story of how their relationship transformed into love from friendship.

'Real Housewives of New York' Season 14 premieres on July 16, at 9 pm ET only on Bravo.
