Now that the 2009 reality show is available to stream on Peacock, catch up on NYC Prep with a long overdue rewatch and a deep dive into where the stars of the show are now.

From the early 2000s obsession with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/most-beautiful-women-reality-tv-stars-ekin-su-kylie-jenner-tayshia-adams-young-paris-hilton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reality TV</a>&nbsp;and <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gossip-girl-reboot-looks-worth-recreating" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Gossip Girl</a>&nbsp;emerged NYC Prep, the short-lived, but iconic Bravo reality show. The series, which aired in 2009 for one season, followed six New York City teenagers as they <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/men/jacob-elordi-street-style-fashion-essentials-shop" target="_blank" rel="noopener">shopped</a> on Fifth Avenue, attended New York Fashion Week shows, vacationed in the Hamptons, and indulged in heaps of gossip and plenty of drama. With love triangles, fallouts between BFFs, and Blair Waldorf-esque <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/headbands-trend-thick-90s-skincare-headbands-to-wear-now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">headbands</a> aplenty,&nbsp;NYC Prep has reigned as one of the most raved-about reality series of the era.&nbsp;
If you've rediscovered NYC Prep&nbsp;as your guilty pleasure show thanks to its recent rerelease on Peacock, know you're not alone. The iconic series is a perfect time capsule of the era, reminding us of all the teenage drama and questionable fashion choices of the time. Whether you've just finished your <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/young-heath-ledger-photos-90s-movies" target="_blank" rel="noopener">nostalgia</a>-induced rewatch or are discovering the reality show for the first time, join L'OFFICIEL&nbsp;in reminiscing on the wild reality series by checking up on its stars and seeing how they're faring these days.&nbsp;

Taylor DiGiovanni famously served as the group's <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gossip-girl-jenny-humphrey-style-evolution-taylor-momsen" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Jenny Humphrey</a> archetype, as the reality show was riding the Gossip Girl wave that had swept the entertainment industry. She attended a public school in Battery Park during the filming of the series but afterwards DiGiovanni, who had been a fan favorite on the show, retreated from the spotlight and does not currently have a public social media presence.&nbsp;

Although she didn't end up at <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/beyonce-harvard-university-course-black-is-king" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Harvard</a> as she had once dreamed, Camille Hughes&mdash;who fashioned herself as the Blair Waldorf of&nbsp;NYC Prep&mdash;attended the College of William and Mary. Following her graduation, Hughes worked in product development for Arbonne, a vegan skincare and lifestyle brand.&nbsp;
Hughes has left NYC for sunny California, where she currently lives with her husband and son.&nbsp;

Although many of the former NYC Prep stars have taken different directions in life than they planned at 16, Jessica Leavitt, who was notably vocal about her love for the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/who-is-brendahashtag-meet-the-influencer-shaping-the-digital-fashion-space" target="_blank" rel="noopener">fashion</a> world during her days on screen, has stuck with her passion following the wrap of the show. After graduating high school, Leavitt stayed in <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/shopping-in-new-york-city-store-openings-2024" target="_blank" rel="noopener">New York City</a> to attend school at the Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) and currently works as a senior visual merchandiser for a luxury clothing brand.&nbsp;
Leavitt married her longtime boyfriend Jason Brown, who works as an investment analyst in New York City, in 2019, per a marriage announcement in the <a href="https://www.27east.com/sag-harbor-express/sag-harbor-news/sag-harbor-community/leavitt-and-brown-are-wed-2131523/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sag Harbor Express</a>.&nbsp;The couple currently live and work in New York City, staying true to their roots.

Sebastian Oppenheim left NYC for the <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/ariana-debose-omega-atlanta-boutique-store-opening" target="_blank" rel="noopener">South</a> following the wrap of&nbsp;NYC Prep, where he attended the College of Charleston. Oppenheim kept up with <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/film-tv/vanderpump-villa-hulu" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Bravo</a> following his departure from the spotlight of&nbsp;NYC Prep, but this time, the former reality star worked behind the camera as a production assistant, rather than in front of it.
These days, Oppenheim is working as the Head of Real Estate at Rove, traveling the world, and enjoying adulthood with his wife, Skyler Bouchard, and child. The <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/pop-culture/simone-biles-husband-power-couple-athletes" target="_blank" rel="noopener">couple</a> married in 2019 and welcomed a son, Arlo, in December 2023.&nbsp;

Although he was always at the center of drama during his NYC Prep&nbsp;days, PC Peterson seems to have taken to life behind the camera as an adult. The former reality star and heir currently works as a <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/gigi-hadid-miu-miu-yevonde" target="_blank" rel="noopener">photographer</a> in New York City, per his Instagram and website, and has amassed an expansive portfolio. In 2018, Peterson married Quentin Esme Brown, a longtime friend, in a buzzy Las Vegas wedding that boasted Tiffany Trump as a flower girl.
In 2020, the pair split, per <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/entertainment/1429111/nyc-prep-pete-peterson-quentin-esme-brown-divorce/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Sun</a>, which reported that Brown filed for divorce.&nbsp;

Throughout NYC Prep, Kelli Tomashoff flaunted her passion for <a href="https://www.lofficielusa.com/fashion/history-of-hippie-fashion-at-music-festivals-coachella-woodstock-burning-man" target="_blank" rel="noopener">music</a>, and in 2011, the reality star-turned-singer released a single, "Gave Up On Love," which she performed at Sundance Film Festival later that year. Following the wrap of Season 1, Tomashoff enrolled in The New School, and worked as a publicity director following her graduation, per <a href="https://www.eonline.com/news/1140207/what-the-stars-of-bravo-s-nyc-prep-are-up-to-now" target="_blank" rel="noopener">E!
