Luann de Lesseps Addresses Where She Stands in Her Sobriety Following a Recent Incident in NYC
The cabaret singer addressed the headlines with Andy Cohen while appearing on WWHL.
Luann de Lesseps addressed some recent headlines about herself during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on March 22 regarding an incident that reportedly took place during a night out in New York City.
"Lu, just want to point out you were in the headlines over the weekend, and I thought your statement on Instagram was excellent. Anything else you want to say about it?" Andy Cohen asked about the recent incident that took place at an NYC hotspot that later made the news.
Luann addressed the headlines and shared an update on where she is now. "Well, you know, I just want to say that people make mistakes. I'm only human and, you know, progress not perfection. And I'm drinking my [non-alcoholic Fosé Rosé] tonight," she said, clip above.
After Andy noted that she had not been drinking on The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, as well as on The Real Housewives of New York City, Luann added, "I've had a pretty good track record, but people slip and, like I said, I'm only human and it happens. And that's part of being responsible, moving on, picking yourself back up, and doing the right thing. And that's why I apologized, because it's important. You have to own your behavior. And, you know, I had a party that night, that's for sure."
As Andy mentioned, Luann posted an Instagram over the weekend addressing the incident. "This week, after a regrettable incident I was faced with the truth. I want to apologize to the staff at Townhouse and anyone else I may have offended with my behavior. Clearly my struggles with alcohol are real! While I've made great strides over the years, there's been times I've fallen. It's one day at a time! I'm in recovery and taking steps to ensure this doesn't happen again," she wrote. "I'm grateful to my family and my friends for their constant support."
She also later posted a separate thank you message on Instagram, writing, "Thank you everyone for reaching out and being so loving [and] supportive. It means the world to me [and] my family. Grateful."
