She's back! Luann de Lesseps is opening up about her 'rough year' — which included getting arrested for drunkenly attacking a cop, returning to rehab for a second time and being sued by her children and ex-husband Count Alexandre de Lesseps.
After three weeks, the Real Housewives of New York City star checked out of rehab for a second tome to do her cabaret show #CountessAndFriends at The Paramount in Long Island, New York on Saturday, where she got candid with the audience about her recent struggles.
Luann referenced her children several times throughout the show and when asked about the lawsuit after the show, the Bravo reality star blamed the lawsuit on her first ex-husband Count Alexandre de Lesseps. She insisted that her relationship with her children Noel and Victoria is fine.
"I still have a good relationship with my family. I'm going to see my children this weekend. The lawsuit is my ex-husband's brain child, certainly not my children's," she told The Daily Mail. "So I'm dealing with him. It's a personal family issue that's going to be solved very quickly."
During the show, Luann poked fun at her recent stint in rehab, which she left just days ago for the second time, saying she enjoyed it so much that she went back. She then launched into a rendition of Amy Winehouse's song of the same name, reports the publication.
Despite the jokes, Luann got serious about her troubles after the show, saying she had been on "a highway to hell" before she got arrested on Christmas eve in Florida last year.
"Getting arrested stopped me in my tracks. I wasn't well. I didn't deal with the emotional part of divorcing Tom. I thought it was behind me. I thought if I moved really fast I wouldn't feel the pain. But I was really drinking to numb the pain, self medicating."
Luann also gave an update on her love life and admitted that she still keeps in touch with her second ex-husband Tom D'Agostino.
"He texted me to see if I was ok. We have an amicable relationship, kind of," she told The Daily Mail. "But we don't see each other."
When asked if he was dating anyone right now she said no. Luann denied that she was in a relationship with her agent Richard Super and said she is "single and dating."
