Always The Referee

Answers revealed from the reunion

By Luann de Lesseps

You were kind of like the referee of the reunion, de-escalating everyone's conflicts. Were there times you just wanted to take a break and jump in and confront anyone yourself?

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New York City on Peacock and catch up on the Bravo app

I'm always a bit of the referee. The only time I really felt like jumping in was when Alex and Simon talked about their home under constant renovation as they are madly shopping and the paint is peeling. I was surprised he showed up for the reunion, no one told us he would be there. I also had no idea she had nude photo's soon to hit the stands. Yikes, what would the children think???

Ramona walked out when Alex's photos were brought up. Were you surprised by her behavior? Do you think it's justified? How did you feel about the photos?

I think Ramona was shocked by the whole thing, and so was I quite frankly. I think there is nothing wrong with posing naked as long as it's done in good taste. I think her reaction was understandable. Real_Housewives_NY_108_14.jpg

Everyone was a bit peeved that Simon attended the reunion. If the invitation were open to everyone, would The Count have sat in as well? T

he Count would never have come. It is called The Real Housewives of NYC after all...

Any final thoughts on the reunion or season as a whole?

The show has been great fun for me. I never realized the impact it would have on my life and what I care most about -- manners. It's not hard to be polite and so few people are. Manners you can learn, but class you are born with. I'm working on a book and hope to have it completed by season 2. Thanks everyone for watching!!! And remember, "never complain or explain" -- a tip that always comes in handy...
