Eva Longoria Wants A "Desperate Housewives" Reboot, Too — "Let's Do It Again"
Staff Writer, Jasmine Williams, covers a variety of topics from home decor to beauty and everything in between. She has bylines at Motherly, The Everymom, and Byrdie where she wrote about motherhood, beauty, health and relationships. Jasmine knew she wanted to be a writer when she realized she was actually interested in reading the articles in her mom's favorite magazines — and she may or may not have ripped her favorite articles out to study them later. When she's not working, you can find Jasmine playing make-believe with her toddler, spending an undisclosed amount of time in Target or TJ Maxx, and searching for a family-friendly puppy to add to her family.

She experienced trauma as a teenager, causing her to leave home and forge a new path that was far removed from her past. Of course, trauma doesn't excuse one's behavior, but it certain gave viewers a different look at Gabrielle and her many, many questionable life choices.
