Model missing

Does anyone know what happened to the plus size model Rebecca I've not seen her on for awhile?

I have no idea. Nor can I find out anything about EVINE host Connie Kunkle who seems to have fallen off the face of the earth. Something must have happened, but no one is talking.

Rebecca seems to come and go. She was a regular for a number of years, then it seems to me I read she moved to Connecticut, though I could be wrong. She seemed to resurface when Issac joined up and they started doing a few shows from NYC, which, incidentally, they never seem to do anymore... I used to see her doing his shows from Pennsylvania semi-regularly, but essentially stopped watching QVC on any kind of a regular basis early last year so wouldn't know if or when she might've moved on or been replaced by the seeming influx of newer models.

also does anyone remember the model Jesse who was on AM style ? what ever happened to her? The last time I saw her on am style she had lost weight and I remember someone asking her if she was wearing a size 1 x of a garment she was modeling and she said no it was a xl. I never saw her after that.

I believe Rebecca moved to someplace like NYC with her husband. She appears on Isaac's shows occasionally. She was always a favorite of mine with her beautiful coloring.

Was it Rebecca the model that worked for Susan Graver...the last I heard she had moved away...(like stevieb said) and she only came in for SG shows...that was the last I saw her....but then I rarely tune in anymore...I never seen her with IM....

I am sure that I did see Rebecca modeling for an Issac show earlier this month. I had to go away for the day so did not get to watch more that day. She looks as terrific as ever. I also miss seeing her. I understood that she moved out of state and only returns when she will be modeling for several hours during a visit. I am a short plus size lady and I look forward to seeing her and Jessica. They may be 5 plus inches taller than me but they remind me that regardless of size I should stand "tall" and proud and carry myself with dignity. I also look forward to seeing Antonella and Carolyn when they are wearing items being promoted. If something looks good on them I give the item greater consideration. They both are about the size of the American woman. [ 5ft 4in; 166 lbs; lg/xlg ] We all are beautful in our own way. We need to project this to our youngest ladies growing up. Movies and magazines that they get information from promote being skinny and doctor the photographs. We need to teach all children to eat healthy, get exercise and be the best that they can be in all aspects in their life. Sorry I got carried away but it is a message we need to pass on.

Shortly before her disappearance from Evine, Connie's behavior on-air was extremely erratic, really off the wall. I don't think she went off to sing anywhere in that condition. I believe there was some kind of problem for which she has been getting treatment. Maybe she'll reappear, maybe not. She has been listed as a host most of the time.

When she first came to Value Vision many years ago, her bio said she had come from Broadway.

It was very upsetting and sad to see Connie struggling with a problem.

I hope she is in treatment and she makes it back as a Host there.

Who's Connie?

...only one of the worst show hosts in the entire shopping channel industry...ever. She washcloth ShopNBC for many years. But she didn't make the cut with EVINE, it's obvious that they kept her until her contract ran out and cut her loose. She liked being on tv and hamming it up but her sales skills were non existent.

I always liked Konnie, but hadn't noticed she was missing. Hope she's okay and returns soon.

momtochloe — Sun, 20 Dec 2015 15:48:20 GMT

According to Evine's site she is still considered a host there.

I don't know what happened to her but I hope she's ok and wish her the best.

Talking about models I saw Maria the other day. She look great..

Google Rebekah Derrick. She might have gotten back into acting.

I'm glad to see the other Rebecca back modeling.

About 2 years ago SG announced that Rebecca had married and was moving to CT.

She said she would return when she could to model.

The red hair plus size model Rebecca has not been on in quite some time! She use to do a lot of modeling for Isaac's shows, but since the Q no longer use 1X models anymore, I guess they no longer need her! I no longer see Iris modeling anymore either, all their models now seem to be 6 ft tall and wear xxs!

I guess I don't watch QVC often enough. I'm sorry to hear about their change in body types for presentations.
