LuAnn de Lesseps

Out of Bounds

LuAnn was shocked by Ramona's vicious texts.

Jun 4, 2012

Heather is smart, ambitious, and talented, although she got a little heavy in this episode. It’s not that I didn’t care that her father just died, but the place to share that is not during cocktails when the conversation is supposed to be light. I certainly didn’t want to think about how much I miss my father when I’m out socializing and trying to have a good time. As for Carole, she is intelligent, charming, and very accomplished. I’m enjoying getting to know her better.

I’m OK that Ramona didn’t invite me to her dinner party; I was busy with Victoria’s art show in any case. Ramona doesn’t censor what she says and her calling out Sonja for saying husband versus ex-husband was insensitive, especially when Sonja explained how she didn’t think she’d ever get divorced in the first place. Awkward!

Victoria has loved drawing since she was young girl and her portfolio is amazing. I know I’m biased, but Victoria is showing incredible promise as an artist. Her work is fresh and invokes emotion in the viewer. The show was a great success with Victoria selling much of her work. I’m very proud of her.

Where are your manners? Aviva doesn't "have a handicap" ; even if she did it is rude to use that word. Who says that anymore?

I am so glad you are still here LuAnn! You were my favorite from the beggining!

The only thing that would make the RHNYC better would be if Romona were not on the show.

Going after anyones children is despicable and that just shows what a low life she is.

LOVED Victoria's work! Is she in a gallery yet? Can we purchase? Makes me wish I was at that showing in the Hamptons! Oh...and don't worry about Ramona...she's crazy as ever!

LuAnn, Why keep asking for I'm sorry's? Walk away from it if it's that bad. You also have no right to speak about Ramona's dinner party comment to Sonja. You weren't there and it's all hearsay. You seem to spread bad vibes too. Read your book. Flobe29

Ramona is an uncouth woman who deserves exactly what she is getting. I and many others believe the fortune teller was straight on with her prediction. I hope and pray Romeana and her version of Simon go the same way as Alex and hers. You are gracious and so above anything she could ever aspire to be. Congratulations to you and your relationship. You are amazing at rising above!!

You made more then your share of comments towards Ramona & her family! I don't believe your fake text story, why didn't u just show the women the texts?? I know u are just trying to get rid of Ramona on the show....

LuAnn It gets old seeing you continually berate, confront and bully Romona and the rest of the housewives that you are not fond of necessarily. You are way high on yourself and view others as they belong in the gutter. I am not quite sure how you are able to get the rest of the girls on your side so quickly, but sure enough a brand new season with new Hwives and the nubies are already prepared to attack Romona. Frankly she is the one with the strength, endurance and self-esteem if she is able to take it season after season without caving. I would have bowed out a long time ago if it were me hats off to Romona!!!!

You are a piece of work. You come right out the gate on the first episode and already you've shown yourself to be a hypocrite. You can approach Ramona at a party about her OPINION on your parenting style, but Heather shouldn't talk about her recently deceased father at a bar. Who cares what Ramona thinks of you. If what she said isn't true, then why are you getting so upset?? We all know why. And why are you trying to divide the group by saying things about Ramona? Let them form their own opinion of her. For someone who claims to know so much about manners you rarely practice proper etiquette which is a clear indicator that you're just full of bologna.

Welcome back yourself! Glad to have you back. Too bad that Bravo kept that awful Ramona. Your children are beautiful and wonderful. Hopefully this season will be a good one with you and the new ladies.

I think this season is going to be a good one for you on the show. I'm not really sure why Romona seems to have it out for you already, but that's how it is coming across. Its so nice to hear and see that you are still in your relationship. Victoria's artwork was AMAZING and I loved seeing how she had it on display. She's got awesome talent and I think its great that she is applying to art college. Good luck to her, Noel and yourself.

Luann thinks people must say sorry to her because she's above all well guest what luann, you're not worth the words!!!

LuAnn, Love the new cast! They seem like so much fun! Looking forward to every single episode!

You have known Ramon for a couple of seasons now. You know the kind of person she is, so you should not have asked her for an apology in the first place. She does not filter what she says, and if you don't like it, just get over it. You are still the high and mighty snob you have always been. I would much rather be Ramona's friend than yours. You think you are better than everyone else. You hold your nose in the air, and money CAN'T buy you class. You CANNOT SING and only auto tune saves you. I just wish they would have fired you along with the rest of the others last season. Get over yourself already!

Keeping blogging LuAnn! You've been one of my favorites since the get-go, polished and good natured so it's never boring to watch.

Stay away from Arroma, she's a little stinky to say the least.

It's so obvious your story about Ramona "'threatening" your children was total BS, Luann. Please!! The new girls may not know Ramona, but WE do, and no matter how abrasive and inappropriate Ramona can be (which are actually two of the reasons I love her) there is NO WAY she would put something like that out there. Even you were uncomfortable repeating the story and ran away before you tangled yourself up in more of your lies. In the scene where you confront Ramona in an upcoming episode, you say "you threatened ME," not "you threatened MY CHILDREN." Hmmm...why is that? Because it's a bunch of crap, that's why. If your story was true, you would retell it over and over and over to anyone who would listen because that's what YOU do. You're a petty person with a condescending attitude and a high school mentality. Bravo should have thrown you on the compost heap with the other 4.

Not surprised that Ramona is up to her old tircks. One would think after watching herself last season, she would see how truly vulgar she appears and make every effort to do some soul searching! Ramona does not take responsibilty for any of her actions and to threaten to spread stories about your family is crossing the boundary. I truly hope that you finally put her in her place!

That's wrong in every way! LuAnn don't you let her get away with that crap. CHILDREN ARE OFF LIMITS, AND SHE'S A DEVIL FOR GOING THERE. Teens make mistakes. You don't judge others children! I hope your Mamma bear comes out and you are able to show her how awful she is?

Ok LuAnn.. It wasn't cool to edit Heather on mentioning her father's death. He just died, so of course she must be raw and drawn to blurt it out. You were out of line as usual, and your social police bit is old..still.

You haven't been one of my favorite housewives but I feel it is unfair what Ramona is doing.

I don't believe a word that comes out of your mouth. Classless.

Running to the girls was childish and really not needed. Do I agree with what Ramona did if she did threaten you??? No, not at all, but I also don't think it was really necessary to run to the new girls and blab it all. Talking about Ramona and just leaving wasn't a warning, it was a feeble attempt to make sure you get the new girls on your side since your cohorts (Jill and Kelly) are not on the show this year, that was very transparent. Why draw them into this old old drama? I would have thought if Ramona's parenting comments to you were so distressing and upset you, there would have been a way in the many months since LAST season for you to meet with her and clear the air. It's like holding onto old drama to keep a storyline!!!

I'm sure Ramona could care less about pursuing a friendship with you at this point. You have a lot to apologize to her for, too. You were just as horrible to her last season.

Luann, I find you very beautiful and graceful. I honestly look at you as a role model to how I would like to handle antagonistic people. You never get overly emotional, instead you use your vocabulary. You express yourself very well. I like you and Jacques together too. You deserve it! And, you are a great mom.

Love you LuAnn for being the lady that you are... Ramona is definately in the wrong.... She tries to act like she is above everyone... You on the other hand are nothing but nice and genuine... I am from the south (Seymour, Tn.) and our children and families are everything to us. I know you have money, but you still have morals and I think in my opionion you know money is not everything... All I can say is YOU GO GIRL>>> You are the better person... You are the reason I love this show... Keep up the good work... And every once in a while will you PLEASE put Ramona and her husband in there place????

I am soooo happy Jill is no longer on the show. I'll bet she's no longer your "good" friend since you are getting attention on the show and she isnt. She is the meanest of mean girls and can hardly live with herself because she just seethes with jealousy! I think you would be a much nicer person without her by your side. She just drags you into all the drama she craves! You are way above that!

omg..you already have rules for Heather???maybe since it was her Dad and her feelings and her dad only passed less than 2 weeks before...couldn't you have conjured up a lil class and offered some sympathy...your something else.

I'll say this for voctoria...she does have some talent...not into the gothic but loved the statuesque portrait holding its head

I LOVE RAMONA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SHE IS SOOOOOO REAL........SHE REMINDS US OF US....U NOT SO MUCH

Let me get this right. The cocktail party was not the RIGHT time for Heather to discuss her father, but the RIGHT time for you to speak/argue with Ramona. You are still the biggest hypocrite ever and Bravo should have fired you with the other brunettes.

In short, you are a snake. Oh hey! Not the first time someone calls you out for what you are.

LuAnn, You claim to be taking the "high road" with Ramona but you didn't even get through the first show this season! You weren't even on the "low road", you were in the gutter with this one. You said you felt you needed to warn the new ladies about Ramona and what she's cabable of but NO ONE believes that for a second! You were out to influence those women and to throw Ramona under the bus and EVERYONE knows it! No one has any idea of whether or not what your telling them is the truth and Ramona wasn't there to defend herself. You were only at the restarant long enough to dish about Ramona then quickly leave. You didn't talk to the other ladies or have a normal converstion or ask them anything personal about their lives. You spewed out your venom and quickly left. If you are really secure and confident about your children and your role as their parent than why would you even try to communicate with the likes of Ramona, much less expect an apology? I can't believe Ramona can make The cool, sophisticated Countess unravel.

Ramona is still up to her antics. Using Luann's children as a weapon against her. Like the old saying goes "judging a person doesn't define who they are, it defines who You are". She has no boundaries and even people's children are at the receiving end of her low blows. It baffles me why should ever attack children. Everyone has their own parenting style and what works for one child may not work for another. Luann's children turned out great so obviously Luann did a great job. Any person that attacks someone as a parent is malicious and rude.

A word from the wise to Sonja "Beware: you will become the company that you keep". It's called guilty by association. I like Sonja but she has to tell Ramona to shut her unfiltered mouth because it's making her look bad as well. "Birds of a feather flock together"

You never acknowledge your part in anything, LuAnn. You stir the pot and then act like you had nothing to do with it. I haven't forgotten your part in talking about the parenting of Alex and Simon and things you said about their children. Pot meet kettle.

Ramona is out of line!!! From a mother to a mother there is one line you do not cross. and that is criticizing another mother on how she raises her kids and also BLACKMAILING to tell the public what her kids do, to make Luann look and feel like a bad parent. I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU RAMONA IT IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS HOW SHE RAISES HER KIDS!!! Everyone parents differently and for you to stoop so low to bring CHILDREN into an ADULT SITUTATION how elementary are you?

New housewives, same story. So Luann I was looking forward to the mix of the old and new housewives but really nothing has changed. You are still condescending and stirring the pot. And apparently it's once again going to be "gang up on Ramona" with the new crew. Tired of it. Seriously, joining the girls for lunch and dropping the bomb about Ramona's threat and then getting up to leave right away--umm, was that a set up or what? It almost smells of Jill and a plan to inset the same old nastiness into the new group. Where's your etiquette and good manners--let people form their own opinions. And accusing someone of something so nasty when they are not there to defend themselves--disgusting.I'll give it a few more episodes, but I'm out if this if it is the same old garbage.

If you felt that the cocktail party was not the place for Heather to discuss her father (he just died days before, be more sensitive) then why did you fell the need to start with Ramona. That was not the time or place. Seems like you want to be the center of this season, but I would not be argumentative just to get face time.

First of all, the "Countess" should know that it was not appropiate to confront Ramona at a party. You should have waited and met for coffee to discuss the situation. You knew how Ramona would react and I think you did it to try to get the new girls on your side and not Ramona's. As for your rushing in on the ladies that you were meeting for coffee, you came in, attacked Ramona, and you were gone in a flash. Again, trying to get the new girls on your side. You cannot force an apology from someone, as it will only be insincere. You should just try to practice what you preach and behave more "Countess" like.

Wow Luann....your attractive people comment shows us all that arrogance is still riding high with you..

I was not going to watch N.Y.But luann and alexis from oc are by far my 2 fav.housewives.they are both the 2 most beautiful.i luv they do not use val-ger words and do not get all crazy like romano and tamra.romano should of left and jill stayed.luann if i watch it is because of you.stay strong and do not put up if you get bullyed.and you are right keep the family and kids out of it.romano and tamra 2 least fav.housewives.print for the class of the show please.thanks!

Who are you to tell someone that their timing is not right to discuss the recent passing of their father!

CLEARING THE "ELEPHANT" FROM THE ROOM? The social gathering was not the right place for what was sure to be a contentious exchange. Had you sincerely wished to address this issue, you could have called Ramona and met for a civilized discussion in a neutral location away from the other "ladies". Now that the "countess" tag has become boring are you trying to be a Drama QUEEN?

Very boorish behavior on your part! Tsk Tsk

Seriously over you!!!! You talk behind people's back. Don't try to resovle an issue at a party. Not the place or time. Rude to the host. Don't bring other people into your disagreements. Stop gossiping. Go the way of Jill and Kelly ~ please vacate the airwaves!

LuAnn,

All you do is complain complain complain complain. It is really taking away from the show. You constantly are in arguments with someone. It is getting old. Please get some therapy.

You are really that worked up over a comment Pinoromona said. Quit playing a victim Louann. Remember you are ROYALTY. LOL

I hope that you can dial it back with Ramona. Just leave it, you are strange in the best light.

Hi Luanne! Glad to see you back this season.

It's awful what Ramona did to you and your family. No matter what the history between the two of you, that is never okay and you have every right to be as mad as you were.

With regards to Heather....seriously Luanne, that was incredibly unkind of you and not gracious whatsoever. So, you are saying that you did not want to think of the pain of your own father's death at a cocktail party? That is the EXACT reason that you should have offered this new cast-mate your deepest sympathy!! I feel the statement you have made in this blog is extremely selfish. Her dad passed away just days earlier and was clearly affecting her. She came to the party, I assume because it was the first night of filming and I am sure you can imagine she was not all there. Perhaps it was her way of telling you..."Hey, I am going through a really rough moment, FYI" Can you for one moment forget the "rules and manners book" and just be human? C'mon, you are better than that, right?

Finally, I thought your daughter's art was super cool and totally hip! She has a lot of talent. Great stuff!! I'm sure you are so proud.

Happy to have the NY girls back.....well most of them anyway... I will be watching this season, not missing Kelly or Jill at all.

~~A fan from FL, born and raised NY'er

VIctoria is extremely talented!

LuAnn, RUN! Just from watching the train wreck of last season, and at the end of this first episode, the "This season on TRHONYC", it is VERY obvious that Ramona is a run away train heading for a wall.You CANNOT rationalize with an irrational person. I've always thought this "celebrity" she thinks she has, has gone to her wine filled head! Kids are OFF the table! Stand you ground, and don't let her get away with it!

PLEASE POST BRAVE. POST IT THE WAY THE VIEWS SEE IT!

Good lord woman, get over yourself already.

maybe I should give you the benefit of the doubt....but, knowing you from previous seasons....i won't.....i'm with ramona.....

Ramona is absolutely CRAZY!!! He husband just agrees with whatever she says. You do NOT use other peoples children to hurt them. This is totally crossing the line. LuAnn, I know that it would be hard not to say anything to her, but look into her eyes. She is a loose canon. And what is with Sonja? Ramona's "yes" lady. I think she is afraid of her. (obviously I don't know either of them personally) only what I see on the show. I actually don't know how much more I can watch. I always feel sick to my stomach after watching the show. All the drama. I thank God my friends don't act like that. They would NEVER use my children as a pawn in a disagreement with me. As I would never cross that line either.
