SALINE BEACH, ST BARTS: Luann de Lesseps is speaking her heart out in the latest season of 'The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: RHONY Legacy.'

During the third episode of Bravo's spin-off show, the ladies were enjoying their lunch against breathtaking sea views when Dorinda Medley asked the group if there was anybody else they would have wanted to see in 'RHUGT: RHONY Legacy.'

Ramona Singer simply replied, “Nobody." Meanwhile, Sonja Morgan stated that the present crew was just perfect. 

Luann answered, “Well, I would have liked Tinsley to be here. I would really like Tinsley to be here.”

For those unaware, Tinsley Mortimer was a part of Bravo's show 'The Real Housewives of New York City' from Seasons 9 to 12. 

Dorinda echoed the same sentiments by saying, "I would like Tinsley to be here, too.” Sonja added, “Yes!”

At the moment, Tinsley is living her best life in Augusta, Georgia. She tied the knot with businessman Robert Bovard on November 11, 2023.

Who Kelly Killoran didn’t want on ‘RHUGT: RHONY Legacy’?

In that same episode, Dorinda also questioned the ladies about which of the former housewives they wouldn’t want to see back on the show.

Kelly responded, "A ‘no’ for me is Alex McCord. I mean, I could not film with her.”

Alex McCord appeared on the 'RHONY' Season 1 to Season 4. Sonja shared her thoughts on Kelly's answer and said,  “You like the realest of the realest."

Kelly went on to say, “I want to know what’s going on. I want to, like, hear what’s happening in people’s lives.”

Why did Luann de Lesseps leave ‘RHONY’?

According to a report by Radar Online, Luann decided to not return as a full-time cast member for 'The Real Housewives of New York City' Season 6.

At that point in time, Bravo shared a picture of the star cast of the sixth season's cast members and the 'RHONY' veteran Luan de Lesseps was nowhere to be seen in the photograph. 

While having a chat with E! News, the TV personality said, "The show has been a part of my life for so long. There's a special place in my heart for the show, for the women, I'm really close to the women on the show. I just made the decision to step back so I can spend more time doing my things with business and my family."

She further added, "It's a win-win for me. I'm still on the show. I'm still very much a part of the show, but it's not a fulltime thing. It's very engulfing when you're on it. It takes up all of your mental and physical energy."

Luann De Lesseps wants her own dating show

During her latest interview with Rolling Stone, Luann talked about having her own dating show.

She told the media outlet, "Wouldn’t it be interesting to see someone charm the socks off of the Countess?"

Luann added. "[I’d say things like], ‘Did you not open the door for me?’ ‘Why did you order that?’ ‘What is that shirt you have?’ It would certainly beat dating online.”
