Dorinda Medley on Luann D'Agostino's Divorce: "I Wish Them Both the Best”

Shortly after Luann D'Agostino announced her divorce from Tom D'Agostino, Dorinda Medley reacted to the news of their split in a statement to Us Weekly.

"It's always a sad thing when a marriage doesn’t work and I hope everyone respects their privacy during this sad time,” she said. "I wish them both the best.”

Dorinda was actually The Real Housewives of New York City pal who introduced Luann and Tom. In February 2016, shortly after the couple got engaged, she spoke to The Daily Dish about why she thought they'd make a great pair. "They're just very similar — the same interests and they both have this joie de vivre that's as endearing as it is infectious," she said at the time. "I think they have reflective personalities — they seem to view life through the same lens. They both love traveling, being on a boat, having great food, being among friends... They're definitely spur-of-the-moment people who love to be out and both are very enthusiastic about living it up!"

Later, Dorinda was at the pair's wedding, which took place on New Year's Eve in Palm Beach. Dorinda spoke to us again shortly after the nuptials, calling her wedding gown on the big day "just a beautiful, elegant, simple lace dress. It was kind of an old-fashioned wedding."

Luann confirmed the divorce on Twitter on Thursday, writing, "It's with great sadness that Tom & I agreed to divorce. We care for each other very much, hope you respect our privacy during this sad time!"
