RHONY Star Dorinda Medley Slams Sonja Morgan’s ‘Hilarious’ Drug Use Allegations; Says She's ‘Trying To Be Relevant’ — Sonja Responds!

In Part 1 of The Real Housewives of New York City season eight reunion special, Sonja Morgan shouted, “Everybody knows you do drugs!” at Dorinda Medley. The topic came up when Bethenny Frankel admitted to referencing cocaine use while talking about Dorinda’s boyfriend, John Mahdessian.

“I'm not here to ruin people's lives,” Bethenny said, attempting to shut down the drug talk. “I'm not here to f**k with people.”

“Why are you insinuating that you know I do drugs?” Dorinda asked. “That's a horrible thing.”

That’s when Sonja made her claim, which Dorinda staunchly denied.  Now, Dorinda Medley is firing back at her Real Housewives of New York co-star Sonja Morgan.

Dorinda said it would be impossible for her to have a cocaine habit, noting that she lives full-time with her 22-year-old daughter, Hannah.

“Listen, I think it's hilarious,” Dorinda Medley tells Entertainment Tonight. “I think poor Sonja's trying to be relevant … The truth is, I didn't film with her at all this season. I think I had one scene and I don't really see Sonja all season. So, you know, she's just trying to be relevant.”

“Poor Sonja had to run with something,” Dorinda continues. “What does she have? I mean, consider the source. You know?”

“[John and I have] never again gone out with Sonja,” the 51-year-old says. “I don't know anything about her life. I never knew Sonja before the show, either … I’d heard of Sonja. I heard about her years of dating wealthy men and her antics, but we don't know each other.”

Then, Entertainment Tonight caught up with Sonja Morgan following Dorinda Medley's interview.

“That's not a denial,” Sonja says after hearing what Dorinda had to say about her during her ET interview. “That's 'check the source.' That's called deflection … My response is, everyone knows Dorinda does drugs.”
