Apart from revealing his design and people skills, Randy Fenoli, 57, of Say Yes to the Dress keeps a relatively low profile. However, he is active on Instagram and has posed for several images with his mother, Jeanette Fenoli.
Jeanette Fenoli had a difficult year
However, it hasn’t been all celebrations for Jeanette recently. In May this year, Randy revealed that his mom has had a difficult time of it recently. She has suffered breast cancer, a mastectomy and 25 treatments of radiation. Jeanette has also suffered a broken leg, loss of a kidney, colon cancer surgery, replacing six teeth and a bad staph infection.
About the Say Yes to the Dress star’s family
It turns out his mom is the only family member Randy posts about on Instagram. However, while not much is known of his family, it is known that he grew up in a family of six siblings. The family grew up on a Mid-Western farm and it turns out life wasn’t always easy for them. While his father’s identity is unknown, he was reportedly an abusive man.
Meanwhile, Randy revealed that his love for designing started when he was a child. His fascination with dresses started when he was only nine years of age. Fenoli revealed at one stage that he would often use the family’s sewing machine to bring his designs to life.

Randy, It’s been a long time since I saw you or your mother. I was friends with your sister, Linda. We were friends from third grade at Rome Grade School until we graduated high school at Woodlawn. The last time I saw her was New Years Eve at the Top of the First in 1971 to celebrate the New Year 1972. I hope you and your mother are doing well. My granddaughters and I started watching Say Yes to the Dress when it first aired on T.V. My granddaughter, Abby, is attending, The Fashion Institute of Technology (FIT) in New York City and recently sent me a picture of you at FIT. She would love to meet you someday. Her name is Abigail Weiss. Wish I had more space to tell you more, Benita Peddicord
