Celebrity Sips - Grace and Frankie

EMMY-AWARD-WINNING NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES GRACE AND FRANKIE IS THE STORY OF TWO WOMEN WHO FORM AN UNLIKELY FRIENDSHIP AFTER THEIR HUSBANDS DUMP THEM FOR ONE ANOTHER. THE DUO’S FUNNY AND FUN ANTICS AND CAST OF LOVABLE FAMILY MEMBERS, FRIENDS, AND LOVE INTERESTS, TURNED THE SERIES INTO ONE OF THE NETWORK’S LONGEST-RUNNING SHOWS. WHILE DEALING WITH THE REALITIES OF LIVING THEIR BEST LIVES, LATER IN LIFE, THE GALS IMBIBE OFTEN. HERE’S TO THE LADIES ON THE SHOW AND WHAT THEY DRINK.

BROOKLYN DECKER

Brooklyn Decker, as Mallory Hanson, youngest daughter to Grace and Robert, was named one of the 100 Hottest Women of All-Time by Men’s Health. Mallory has a softer, motherly instinct, unlike her big sister. In real life, the model admitted to escaping from her kids at least once during the pandemic, “I’m not gonna lie, I’ve hidden in my pantry drinking a bottle of wine just to hide from my family.” We feel ya, girl. JUNE DIANE RAPHAEL June Diane Raphael as Brianna “Bri” Hanson is the daughter of Grace and Robert, and older sister of

Mallory. Mean but witty, she plays the protege

CEO of Say Grace, Grace’s old cosmetic company. Bri is a big coffee drinker and enjoys Espresso Martinis, she stresses, “do not forget to treat yourself.”

LILY TOMLIN Lily Tomlin plays Frankie

Bergstein, Bohemian-styled artist, activist, and hippie throwback, who was married to Sol, played by

Sam Waterston. Although Frankie smokes more pot than she does drink booze on the show, she tosses back a table full of Margaritas in the final episode.

DOLLY PARTON The series finale featured a surprise cameo moment where the 9 to 5 besties reunite in a heavenly scene featuring

Dolly, who playing Angel

Agnes. Dolly reveals, “My favorite drink is red wine. I don’t know too much about the different kinds. But I know I like the kind that has a little of that dryish feeling at the end.” MILLICENT MARTIN

Millicent Martin plays Grace and Frankie’s friend and business associate, Joan Margaret. The adorable and charming English comedian, singer, and actor has a long history in Hollywood. She says, “I like the sort of red wine you can stand a spoon in.”

JANE FONDA Jane Fonda stars as the eponymous Grace Hanson, retired cosmetics mogul, and ex-wife to Robert, played by Martin Sheen. Jane is classic, conservative, polished, and sharp, she’s a bit high-strung, but Frankie evens her out. Grace’s drink of choice is an ice-cold vodka Martini, and she always has one in hand along with designated bottles of vodka throughout every room in the beach house.
