Deb Levy is stepping into the spotlight in season 7 of The Circle. Levy, aged 54, has experience in higher education but is now adapting to a new social environment.
She joins The Circle portraying a 26-year-old catfish named Rachel, intending to blend in with the younger Gen Z and millennial participants.
However, Levy lives a very different life compared to an average reality TV competitor. She hails from Staten Island but now resides in Pittsburgh. Her dedication to her role as a wife and mother is balanced with her professional work in higher education.
Who is Deb Levy?
Trending
Mother of three, Debbie Schwartzberg Levy has devoted her life to her family and education. Her academic background is quite diverse. She obtained a bachelor's degree in psychology from Lehigh University and a master's degree in developmental and child psychology from the University of Pittsburgh.
Her professional journey took her from customer service to higher education, where she is now employed as an instructor and sales growth specialist.
Levy has overcome significant personal hardships, including the death of her eldest son, Jonathan, from Type 1 diabetes. She was deeply affected by Jonathan's death, and she has been open about his struggles with physical and mental health.
Debbie's family and personal life
After getting married in 1996, she and her spouse Phil brought up their three boys, Jonathan, Jason, and Drew.
In a recent Mother's Day post, she shared a heartwarming photo of herself and Jason with Drew.
What to expect from Debbie on The Circle season 7?
Levy will assume the identity of Rachel, a 26-year-old catfish, as she joins The Circle. Her decision to adopt this persona will test her ability to understand and connect with the younger generation. However, with years of experience working closely with students, she feels confident she can bring the right energy to the game.
She playfully embraces her new role on reality TV in her promotional pieces. She teases viewers by saying they can expect her to "sweat, socialize, and out-strategize" the younger participants. With her wit and charm, she's prepared to go all in hoping to beat the opposition and take home the $100,000 cash prize.
Instagram presence
Levy isn’t new to social media, but her time on The Circle will undoubtedly boost her online presence. She already shares her life with her Instagram followers, often posting about her family, including her sons and her dog, Phin.
Her posts often reflect her love for family and her Jewish heritage. One of her most notable posts includes a tongue-in-cheek announcement about joining The Circle. She wrote,
“Your favorite Jewish mom is stepping out the house and into The Circle. Watch me shvitz, schmooze, and out-strategize those Gen Zs and Millennials on Netflix’s The Circle Season 7.”
While her catfish persona might be a 26-year-old, her life story and personality will shine through as she competes for the grand prize. Whether Deb Levy can convince her competitors that she's Gen-Z remains to be seen on The Circle.
