Background
The reality series follows the daily life of Caroline Manzo and her family: husband Albert, sons Albie and Chris, daughter Lauren and sister Fran.[6] Caroline spent five seasons being a cast member of popular reality television series The Real Housewives of New Jersey before getting her own show.[7] Manzo decided to quit the series before the sixth season.[8] In October 2013, she explained the decision on her personal blog telling that her "role has run its course," adding that "peace and integrity cannot be bought with money or fame."[9] Manzo also added that she was already in production on a pilot, Manzo'd With Children;[10][11] the show was eventually picked up.[2]
