Reality TV Sell-Out? ‘RHONY’ Star Ramona Singer Attempted To Sell Announcement Of Split From Mario — Find Out How Much She Demanded
Aug. 11 2014, Published 12:03 p.m. ET
Ramona Singer prides herself on being a self-made businesswoman, and even navigating her split from husband Mario was apparently just another money-making opportunity for the reality star: RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that the Real Housewives of New York City blonde attempted to sell the announcement of her split from her cheating husband to the press, but there were no takers!
According to a source, "Ramona personally called several reporters, offering to sell the exclusive announcement about the split. She was seeking $2,500, but no one bit. Even reducing the price to $500 didn't generate any interest."
The source continued, "It's just bizarre that after shutting down any discussion of Mario's alleged cheating on the Real Housewives of New York reunion, Ramona was now willing to talk — for a price."
After finding no takers, on Thursday, the Turtle Time fan fave took matters into her own hands and tweeted to her 423,000 followers, "I have decided to move on with my life without Mario. I tried my best to make my marriage work. I am excited for the new chapter in my life.”

Allegations surfaced in 2013 that Mario had been cheating with a much younger woman — which they both denied — and then his mistress was later identified as socialite Kasey Dexter.
In January, Ramona filed for divorce from her husband of 27 years, but decided to give him a second chance and the two tried to reconcile.
Now, the source claimed, “Ramona is attempting to pitch her side of the story as the victim, and wants to do a full feature with a friendly celebrity magazine.”
