Luann de Lessep's humiliating arrest -- and the aftermath -- is set to be the biggest highlight of RHONY season 10. The socialite was charged with disorderly intoxication, battery on an officer/firefighter/EMT, and resisting arrest with violence and threatening a public servant after the bizarre Christmas Eve incident in Palm Beach, Florida. De Lesseps pleaded guilty and checked herself into alcohol rehab and according to a preview clip, producers couldn't get enough of the scandal!
There was a cloud hanging over the new season as Bethenny Frankel threatened to quit the show, RadarOnline.com exclusively reported. A source said, " Every season she says she wants to quit, but this year the producers were like, 'Let us know how you want to write yourself off the show.' All the producers want her gone." Tune in to see what happens!
Pals Carole Radziwill and Frankel will fighting this season after they used to be super close. "I’m not sure Carole’s as excited to see me as she used to be," Frankel says on camera. Radziwill will fume to her, "Every time we’re together, you’re aggressive with me."
Tinsley Mortimer's problems with boyfriend Scott Kluth will be exploited on the new RHONY season. RadarOnline.com exclusively reported, the blonde beauty and her beau reconciled. "They filmed a scene for the upcoming season where he surprised her in New York, and they got back together,” a source close to the divorcee told RadarOnline.com of the Chicago-based Coupon Cabin CEO.
Not ship shape! The ladies suffered a scary boat incident in Cartagena when they chartered it for a Colombian getaway which fans will see this season. As Page Six reported, "Once they were ushered on board, the boat couldn’t even move," said a source. "The anchor got stuck, so the crew had to saw the anchor off before they could sail anywhere. When they got out to sea, the engine caught fire…it was a huge blaze and the crew was fighting to put it out." Worse, the boat, claimed the source, had "only two or three life jackets for everyone on board." Radziwill and Mortimer literally threw up from seasickness, the insider revealed.
Bravo cameras were rolling when Zarin and former friend Frankel reunited at Zarin's husband Bobby's funeral. After Zarin lost him to thyroid cancer, she invited Frankel to his wake. As a source exclusively told RadarOnline.com, "Jill feels that life is too short and holding onto hate and ugly feelings just isn’t worth it." Zarin and Frankel had been locked in a bitter feud since 2010. On season three of RHONY, Jill tore into Frankel for not calling her husband after a medical procedure. Now she's back for a guest shot as the RHONY cast bids Bobby goodbye and she copes with widowhood.
Ramona Singer and Frankel fought a season-long feud last year and viewers will see that hasn't ended. Singer, who redecorates her Southampton home on camera, is still mad at Frankel and sparks fly.
A video for the new season shows Radziwill looking frail and scary skinny as she runs a marathon. The author gets exhausted on the long run. Does she make it to the finish line? Tune in to see!
It wouldn't be RHONY without a lot of screaming and Dorinda Medley and Sonja Morgan will go at it hard. Medley shouts at Morgan, "Don’t you dare compare your f—ing marriage to me burying my husband. He left your ass!" Another plotline reportedly covers Medley confronting her own drinking problem. "You’re a drunk," Frankel tells her in a trip to Puerto Rico to help the people there recover from the devastating Hurricane Maria. The Real Housewives of New York City premieres Wednesday, April 4 at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo.
