Elyse Slaine Says Most Of ‘RHONY’ Cast With The Exception Of Leah McSweeney Are “Truly Narcissists” And Reveals Why Ramona Singer Is “Not On My Radar”; Says “I Just Find Her To Be A Caricature”

Elyse Slaine appeared as a "friend" on Season 12 of The Real Housewives of New York City. While she will not be returning to the series, Slaine did not hold back how she truly feels about her former cast members, in particular, Ramona Singer.

Slaine revealed that she ran into Singer all summer in the Hamptons but they both managed to completely ignore each other. 

“I ran into her all summer long,” Slaine said during a recent appearance on the Behind the Velvet Rope with David Yontef podcast, according to Cheat Sheet. “We ran into each other and we completely ignored one another. I, she is so like, not on my radar. I just find her to be a caricature, you know? So I just, you know, if I ran into her, I would probably just ignore her.”

During her interview, Slaine threw some shade at the other ladies, with the exception of Leah McSweeney as the two are close friends. 

“I’m going to separate Leah from the group,” she said. “I think a lot of the women, their problem is that they are truly narcissists and it’s hard to be in a relationship with narcissists,” Slaine said. 

“If you never make it about the other person, and if you lack any ability to be introspective, self-aware take responsibility for anything. And you also lack the ability to compromise. How can you ever be in a relationship?” 

“The whole time I filmed with them,” she shared. “Now, keep in mind, I’ve known these women. Right? I didn’t meet them when I started filming. I’ve known them the whole time I filmed with them.”

“Aside from Leah, because Leah and I talk all the time. The only one who ever asked me how I am or what’s going on in my life is Sonja [Morgan],” she said. “But she didn’t wait long enough to get the answer. But at least she asked.”  

Slaine recalls that Morgan asked her the question but feels like she didn’t mean it. “Well, she’d be like, ‘Hey, how are you doing?’ And then before I could open my mouth and you know, and tell her what’s going on. She’d be like, ‘Oh my God, did I tell you?'” Slaine laughed.

“No, but at least she, you know, the intent to find out was there,” she added. “But these other women, you know, they’re all about, you know, they want a wealthy guy, they want a guy to take care of them. Some of them, you know, when their stint on RHONY is over, they don’t have the finances that people think they have. So, yeah. I don’t think it’s going to be an easy path.”
