Real Housewives of New York star Luann de Lesseps was living her best life on vacation despite reportedly being informed her days as a main cast member of the Bravo show are over.
The 56-year-old reality star/cabaret singer shared a series of snaps of her hanging with a group of girlfriends overseas.
Luann was all smiles while wearing a white strapless top with a matching hat. She captioned the post, “Meet the The Real Housewives of Monaco."
The RHONY star has been on the trip since last week. She first posted photos of her at Club 55 in Saint Tropez with Former Queer Eye For The Straight Guy star Carson Kressley.
Luann doesn’t look too fazed despite recently finding out the network has offered her a role as “friend” for season 14. We’re told her team has informed the network they will not be accepting the offer.
The source believes Sonja will be the only one to accept. We’re told the decision is primarily related to the budget. The insider spilled, “Ramona is the highest paid with Lu right behind her.”
Aside from the budget, the producers are working overtime to come up with a game plan to fix the dying show. The fans have been complaining all season about how boring the storylines were.
The ratings for RHONY have been in free fall with more and more fans deciding to skip it. The show has yet to film a reunion for season 13 despite the finale set to air this week.
For her part, Ramona is currently staying in Aspen and told her fans she will be there for quite a bit of time. It doesn't appear she has any plans to head back to New York to film the reunion anytime soon.
Sonja is having quite the week too. She recently launched her new comedy show, Sonja In The City, at Asylum Asylum NYC. She looked stunning during the opening night where she rocked a sparkly silver dress while on stage with her costars.
Earlier this week, Bethenny Frankel shut down reports she was in talks with Bravo for a return. She claims to have not talked to producers since her exit.
