When asked about returning full-time and her thoughts on Bethenny's return.
"I really feel like I'm in the driver's seat," Lesseps told E! News at The Royals premiere. "I'm enjoying myself. I must say, I've had the most fun this season that I've ever had. It's nice to have Bethenny back; we reminisced a lot about the past…I feel like it's like the good old days of the Housewives."
With Bethenny Frankel returning, LuAnn said there's drama, but maybe not old drama. "I can't give away those secrets, but it's a great season."
Viewers got a glimpse of what's to come in the trailer that had everybody talking, especially LuAnn's interaction with Heather Thomson while on vacation in Turks and Caicos. In the footage released, LuAnn seems to be having a little hangover struggle and tells Heather, "Be cool. Don't be all, like, uncool." She's already planning to capitalize on that moment.
"Andy [Cohen] wrote me the next day and said, ‘You've got to make a new dance song!'" she spilled with a laugh.
"I already put the call in to the music producers," she said. "It'd be fun, right?" But the drama levels on that trip were "just beyond," she teased.
"From the minute we arrived I thought, ‘OK, this is going to be relaxing.' And then it just happens, somehow. Even production was going, ‘We can't believe what's going on in this house.' When you have eight people together, you never know what's going to happen," she said. "We had a great trip, but there was a lot of drama. But you know, I had a great time, as you can see!"
LuAnn also weights in on Kim Richards and Lisa Rinna's fight and more.Watch the full interview below!
