Reality show stars are known to turn up the crazy for the cameras. In the case of “Selling the Hamptons,” Dylan Eckardt may have turned it down.
On the hit Max series, the über-Realtor — whose clients include everyone from Kanye West to Justin Bieber — comes off like the most immodest (and watchable) villain since “Beauty and the Beast”’s Gaston. Off-camera, sitting at a conference table in his Beverly Hills office, Eckardt offers an even more heightened version of what you’ve seen on-screen.
“People wanted me to be a fisherman. Or a bartender with four kids and a fat fucking wife,” he tells me of his blue-collar upbringing in what has become Long Island’s billionaire enclave. “And now I’m driving a bulletproof G-Wagen.” Although a publicist hovers nearby, he whispers, “There’s no PR guys telling me what to say.” Obviously.

On the second season of Max’s real estate reality show Selling the Hamptons, bad-boy agent and new castmember Dylan Eckardt reveals to the cameras regarding his castmates: “I barely like them at all.”
In another scene, agent Peggy Zabakolas walks away from a team get-together and says to her fellow agent (and onetime singer) Ashley Allen, who’s also a new castmember, “Let’s try to stop calling other women bitches.”
Amid the setting of the Hamptons home market — a residential fantasyland of mega-mansions expressly designed to engender a relaxed second-home vibe — the drama on the show includes accusations of trying to steal listings from each other, tensions over nepo babies in the biz and even an open house, led by castmember Mia Calabrese, at a residence where construction isn’t completed. As guests sip drinks, workers are going full tilt with their drills trying to finish the residence...
