'Real Housewives of New York': Leah McSweeney goes on drunken rampage, worried fans advise her to quit drinking
The 'Real Housewives of New York' ladies sure do get messy and wild when they get drunk. We have all witnessed how wild and unruly LuAnn De Lesseps ended up when she was drunk in earlier seasons besides Sonja Morgan's hilarious shenanigans, now we finally get to see the dark side of new housewife Leah McSweeney. Leah had become an instant hit amongst both the housewives and fans for just how raw and relatable she is. But after watching her be a total train-wreck after having a few drinks, we are having second thoughts about her.
The housewives drove to Newport for a quick mini-vacation. Just as everybody was beginning to settle down, Leah immediately throws a curveball by requesting the hostess and fellow housewife Ramona Singer, if she can bring her sister to the trip. Ramona's instant reaction was to say no, but when Leah wouldn't take no for an answer, Ramona reluctantly agreed. Later, Sonja questions Ramona on why she agreed to Leah's sister joining them when they barely know her, and it was supposed to be a girls' trip. Ramona agrees with Sonja. Later that evening, when the ladies head out for dinner, despite Ramona's monitoring and advice not to drink heavily, Leah gets drunk.
She then begins to go on a drunken rampage by destroying the flowers at the venue, rolling on the floor, having random meltdowns and simply picking up fights. Ramona gets very annoyed and triggered when she witnessed Leah behaving so wildly. She finally decides to pull Leah aside and tell her that her sister can't join them, but she'd be happy to host a cocktail party for her sister. Leah gets very upset and starts crying her eyes out. Ramona feels sorry for her and then agrees to Leah's sister joining them again. Leah's drunken behavior and random emotional outbursts didn't sit well with fans too.
Fans were concerned with the housewife's excessive drinking. "Jesus, Leah you are a drunk. A bad drunk. Your mom knows you all too well. #RHONY #WWHL should address this. She needs to be removed.." a fan tweeted while another wrote, "If @Leah does not think she has a drinking problem she has a rude awakening coming! Now we know why her mom was so mad! Horrible drunk some ppl just should NOT drink! I am one of them!! Handle ur feelings first! #RHONY."
"@Andy Worst season of #RHONY thanks to drunk Leah McSweeney. Oh my goodness!! I can’t get that 43 minutes back. Yep, I’m out!" expressed another fan. "Why is this Leah woman on #RHONY she is trashy a real bad drunk and unstable!!! She does not need to be on this show or maybe seeing herself that way will make her never want to get drunk again. Bad mom example!!! #RHONY ur kid will see," pointed out a fan.
