The Housewives will be joining forces for an all-star edition of their show, but don’t expect everyone to always be getting along.
In an interview on Chanel In The City with Chanel Omari, Luann de Lesseps teased the drama to come on the upcoming Peacock show, Real Housewives Mash-up.
‘Of course there’s always drama because you know, you have all these women from all the different franchises together. So there’s always drama, but there’s always with some good fun and bonding moments,’ Luann, 56, said.

‘And, you know, we talk a lot about, you know, our families and things. You might not have known about us from the franchises that we’ve been on. So it’s really cool. I fancy it because it’s really something different from the Housewives.’
Despite her initial apprehensions about joining the show due to not knowing many of the women, Luann ended up hitting it off with Kyle Richards and Kenya Moore.
Luann had only interacted once with Kyle prior to filming, and had never even met Kenya before, whom she heard had a reputation for being a ‘drama queen.’
‘I laughed a lot with Kyle and Kenya and I really hit it off,’ Luann admitted.

One Bravo star who definitely won’t be on the show is former Housewife Bethenny Frankel, who quit The Real Housewives Of New York in 2019.
Luann admitted she was no longer in touch with Bethenny, however sent her her well-wishes.
‘I haven’t been in touch with Bethany. You know, Bethany’s left the show and kind of has moved on and that’s, that’s cool. And you know, and I wish her the best.’
As far as former RHONY star Carole Radziwill, who has been vocal in her criticism of her former costars, Luann said: ‘There’s always disgruntled ex Housewives out there, you know, and it’s, you know, if you don’t have anything nice to say, then don’t say it. That’s how I feel about it.

‘And listen, she forgets to say how Housewives has been a tremendous launching pad for her in many ways… I don’t think it’s a good look for her to be talking badly about the show, you know, it’s like, don’t bite the hand that feeds you.’
Luann, who has been an open book with her love life, also discussed the ‘cute guy’ she met in Mexico.
Describing the qualities of her ideal partner, Luann revealed: ‘I was in Mexico a lot and I met a very cute guy from Mexico. So I would say, I want somebody with a lot of integrity, good manners. Someone who is loyal, someone who worships the ground that I walk on and tall, dark and handsome,’ she said. ‘And younger,’ she added.
As for her future love life, don’t expect to find Luann on the dating apps.

‘I want to get off the dating apps. I’m not really using them because I feel like, you know, at the end of the pandemic, it’s time to get out there and meet people in person.
‘And I’m just not a dating app person… I’m like a bad online shopper too. I like to touch and feel things.’
The Real Housewives Mashup stars Luann and Ramona Singer of New York, Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga of Real Housewives of New Jersey, Kenya Moore and Cynthia Bailey of Real Housewives of Atlanta and Kyle Richards of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
Real Housewives Mash-up is set to air on NBC’s streaming service Peacock later this year.
