Ramona Singer is a The Real Housewives of New York City OG and she's been there to witness many of the "firsts" on the franchise — in fact, she's often the one creating these moments. One of these famous "firsts" was being the first Housewife to make an appearance on a different Real Housewives franchise's reunion, as seen on The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 8. During the RHONJ reunion, Ramona called Melissa Gorga's cell phone — and Andy Cohen picked up! Although Ramona says she can't remember why she was calling Melissa, she said that she was surprised to hear the Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host on the other end of the line.
"I was calling her for something, to ask her something, and then I'm hearing this voice and going, 'Who is this?' And he goes, 'Andy,' and I go, 'Andy, why are you answering Melissa's phone?' and he goes, 'Well, why are you calling when we're doing the reunion?' and I go, 'Well, I didn't know!'" Ramona told The Daily Dish podcast. Check out the clip above to see how it all went down.
While she's definitely the first 'Wife to call in during a reunion, her previous reunion "firsts" have not gone unnoticed. Ramona noted, "Andy says I'm the first to do everything on the reunion. The first to walk off, the first to fall asleep, and the first to call in and be on someone else's reunion!" (Check out those moments, below.)
Indeed, Ramona has made Real Housewives reunion history several times. Check more firsts from Ramona and the RHONY gang every Wednesday at 9/8c. Here's a preview of what's to come, below.
