Elizabeth Edwards will appear on "The Nate Berkus Show" during the show's premiere week in September.
According to a press release for the show, the Chicago designer made famous by Oprah Winfrey will interview Edwards at her Red Window furniture store in Chapel Hill and will also visit her Chapel Hill home (which is for sale).
Edwards talks to Berkus about moving past personal lows, such as her separation from her husband John Edwards, and about starting a new chapter in her life, focusing on her relationships with her children and her love of design. She will also join Berkus for a segment in his New York studio during which the two help another woman who is trying to reclaim her life.
Berkus said of Edwards: “I found Elizabeth to be incredibly honest, funny and just a pleasure to be around. Her passion to build a new life for herself is nothing if not inspiring. And, the fact that we both love design, gave us an instant connection. Being around her reaffirmed my love of strong women. They take their lives into their own hands and aren’t bound by any parameters or rules. I think viewers will be happily surprised by her candor, pure wit and love of life. To have the opportunity to sit with her and share her story, in her own words, is why I wanted to do my show -- so viewers can see not only who people are, but who they aspire to be. I believe aspiration can happen at any time in one’s life -- who better to demonstrate that fact than Elizabeth. “
"The Nate Berkus Show" will begin airing in syndication on September 13. We'll keep you posted here about times and stations.
