Luann de Lesseps has offered a brief but telling update on her relationship with former Real Housewives of New York City co-star Bethenny Frankel. The two women once shared plenty of screen time, but they have not appeared together on the show for more than eight years. Luann says their shared history remains, even though they do not see each other often. She also made it clear that she is comfortable with the distance.
Luann de Lesseps says she’s “good with” rarely seeing Bethenny Frankel
During an interview with E! Online hosts Eyal Booker and Lonnie Marts IIV for Hot Goss: The Golden Life Edition, Luann spoke about Bethenny. “Bethenny and I will always share the history of Housewives,” she said. However, she admitted, “I don’t see her that often.” Luann did not explain whether they are still close friends or whether there is any tension between them.
Luann offered an even shorter answer when Bethenny came up during the November 3 episode of The Golden Life. Producers asked her during a confessional for an update on their friendship. “I’m good with that,” the Countess replied, making it clear that she has no issue with their limited contact. Her response suggested that she is comfortable with how things stand between them.
The former co-stars have not shared the RHONY screen in more than eight years, but Luann still values the time they spent on the Bravo series. She did not disclose whether she and Bethenny had spoken recently. Instead, she focused on the history they will always share through the show. Her remarks offered a rare glimpse into a relationship that was once closely followed by viewers.
Luann made no suggestion that the pair plan to reconnect or spend more time together. She simply acknowledged that they rarely meet while recognizing their connection through Housewives. The reality star also kept her answer brief when the show brought up Bethenny’s name. For now, Luann appears content to let their friendship remain as it is.
