Countess of New York No More!


Here's some reality dumpster diving for you.

The most hated 'Housewife' Luann de Lesseps, has been dumped by her Count. It's been reported that he's seeing a younger and sexy a beautiful Ethiopian woman (scandalous). It's also reported that her ways and attitude led to their separation.

Here's more from NYP:

A close pal said, "They decided to separate. She got wind he was seeing somebody and he didn't answer her when she called. He finally sent her an e-mail saying he was with an Ethiopian woman in Geneva and he was serious with her."

The revelation came as a shock to the countess, who celebrated her 16th anniversary with her husband on March 16.

"Luann was blindsided. She was just devastated," the close friend told Page Six. "They have basically lived apart for many years -- he lives in Europe and comes and goes as he pleases, but she never thought this would happen.

"It has been very rough for her and the children [Victoria and Noel], but she's taking the high road and will remain friends with him," the source added. "She has no intention of making it bitter or becoming angry. She's just trying to come to terms with [the separation and impending divorce]. She feels this is the ultimate test for her to handle this with dignity and grace."

Luann -- whose book, "Class With the Countess," comes out next month -- has told friends that, no matter what, "I will always be the countess."

I wouldn't care, but I can't watch the show because of her. She is the worst one from the 'Housewives' batch.

Bad as she is she is not the worst one to me. I don't care for the new one, I think her name is Kelly...

As I said on another blog, perhaps this is the reason the dissedCountess (all one word) has been such a bitch this season.

I couldn't watch any version of that show - Orange Co., NY, Atlanta . . . dreadful. The commercials on Bravo were terrifying enough. (OK I did see a few episodes of the OC season. Gag.)

I think the most cringeworthy thing about that Page Six blurb item is the book . . . the fact that she "wrote" one, and its title: Class With the Countess. Ouch. Yeah - that's class: Being on "'Real' 'Housewives'"
