Luann de Lesseps Slams Bethenny’s Hypocrisy For Accusing Her of Sleeping With Married Men!
Lets get down to the latest Real Housewives of New York insanity. Not Scary Island insanity, but a crazy train out of control, nevertheless. When Luann tried to take credit for helping name Skinnygirl, Bethenny Frankel overreacted just a tiny bit by projectile vomiting pea soup while her head swiveled 360 degrees.
“From the get-go, Bethenny decided that I was her prey and she was going to kill me with words. Obviously she’s been harboring a lot of anger towards me. I was surprised as I spent a lot of time with her over the summer, and she never shared her feelings with me. In fact, we talked about it at the beginning of the season, and she’s still holding a grudge.”
I’ll admit, it was wrong of Luann to try and take credit for the Skinnygirl name, especially knowing how proprietary Bethenny is. That is the sum total of Luann’s role in this fiasco. The rest is all Bethenny’s damage.
But Luann is also upset about the insinuations that she somehow stole Tom from Ramona. Or that she sleeps with married men.
“I knew immediately after meeting Tom that this was going to be a long-lasting relationship. I didn’t feel that I had to ask Ramona’s permission to date Tom as they obviously were not dating. We’ve been inseparable since we met, and that was before Thanksgiving. So all of these accusations that I’m dating married men are slanderous and not true.”
She points to a Page Six article linking Bethenny to a married man. Whoops. Now who’s being a hypocrite?
Luann does admit that she was insensitive to Jules’ real life problems.
“…when I talked to Jules on Dorinda’s front porch, I was still reeling from my encounter with Bethenny. I realize now that she was distracted with her father’s health issues and that I should have been more empathetic to what was going on with her instead of focusing on me…”
Last year, I think Luann crossed a lot of lines in her argument with Carole. Calling her a pedophile, ridiculing her for not having children that was nasty. So Luann texts an apology, hoping all will be forgiven.
“When I’m wrong, I admit it, and I sent Carole a text re-apologizing for things I’ve said in the past. To Bethenny, I sent a text saying I was sorry if I miscommunicated my role in naming her brand. I was there with her at the time and that is all I was saying. As for Carole, I don’t know what else I can do if she doesn’t accept my apology.”
Sometimes, apologies aren’t enough. I wonder if Bethenny will offer her own to the Countess. Luann will probably accept it, as she has in the past, but you can’t un-say ugly, hurtful things. Bethenny, of all people, should know this due to her rough upbringing.
Moving on…
“Let’s talk about Bethenny’s hair. Come on! Really? It looks exactly like mine. I’m flattered that she likes my style.”
Dear Luann de Lesseps,
You’re going to have to let this hair thing go. Really. Bethenny got a bob. You and Jacques shared the same hair for years, and we didn’t think he was trying to copy your sense of style—mainly because he didn’t wear chunky turquoise. Please, get another shtick, because this one isn’t working out.
Sincerely,
America
So do you think Luann had a role in last night’s debacle or is it all Bethenny, all the time? Am I the only one who felt sorry for Dorinda? She’s still new enough to have expectations of a fun girls’ weekend. Sorry, D. that will never happen. Not with this crew.
