Since the show, which just wrapped up the first season, the former news anchor is taking her years of entertaining both on and off screen to a new cooking and lifestyle program. “This is something I’ve wanted to do for 10 years now but once I started getting into news and starting a family, it was sort of put into the background.” Williams says.

The show will follow her as she not only debuts signature creations like her lemon-drop martini, but as she highlights local chefs in Arizona and the benefits of purchasing local food. “We’ll go out to organic farms with a chef that really knows what to look for; lots of what’s in season is what’s for dinner but keeping in mind the state of the economy,” Williams says.

According to Williams, the show will begin shooting its pilot episode in the next couple of months.

The reality star says she has also been able to further focus on her family: her 21-year-old stepson, Jake, who just signed with the Diamondbacks rookie league and her and Matt’s 8-year-old daughter, Madison.

The family-oriented entertainer says it’s always been her and her husband’s dream to give their kids the fairytale life and let them truly enjoy their childhood and spend as much quality time together as possible.

“Your husband leaves during spring training time and can be gone potentially through October and you learn to let them focus on the game and not sweat the small stuff while you take care of things at home,” Williams says. “When baseball’s over you have your husband back and your children have their dad back, we spend every night together making dinner at home and having friends over.”

With a new show in the works, an InTouch Weekly spread out this month and an all-star family to care for, the public will just have to wait and see what this baseball wife’s next move will be.

Williams says, “It’s gonna be fabulous!”
