She followed her handsome jewish husband back to his native New York, where she thrived in the fashion industry, and quickly became the "it girl" of Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week. She faced her share of challenges: the tragic death of her doting father, an oppressive marriage with a husband increasingly obsessed with orthodox judaism, and her first born diagnosed on the spectrum of autism.And then her world turned upside downWhen federal agents knocked on her door one tragic day, her life changed forever. Accused of internet fraud for selling jeans online, De La Mare-Kenny found herself serving a lengthy sentence in a medium - high security federal prison.
