Luann de Lesseps is opening up what viewers of The Real Housewives of New York City can expect about the newest cast member, Leah McSweeney. “She has a daughter,” de Lesseps told Michelle Collins on her SiriusXM show, before noting that McSweeney has a number of tattoos.
“Leah has some tats, so the Housewives, you can imagine Ramona [Singer] and Dorinda [Medley]’s response to her which was, ‘Um, really, tats? We don’t talk to people who have tats,’ ” de Lesseps said with a laugh, according to PEOPLE.
However, de Lesseps is not ready to reveal what Leah's tattoos look like. “You know, I’m gonna let you see for yourself,” she said, before admitting she didn’t “really know” what they depict. “She has a lot of them.”
Luann also revealed that fans of the Bravo hit reality series will be pleased to learn that the founder of the Married to the Mob clothing line fits in well within the group.
“She’s gorgeous, she’s really beautiful. And what I like about her is she is somebody who is self-made and vulnerable at the same time,” she said. “So I think people can relate to her.”
de Lesseps also shared that McSweeney is not married, “she is very close to the father of her daughter.”
McSweeney was announced as the newest cast member of RHONY in November during BravoCon’s Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen taping. She’ll be joining returning Housewives de Lesseps, Dorinda Medley, Tinsley Mortimer, Ramona Singer, and Sonja Morgan.
