‘RHONY’ Luann De Lesseps Is Trying To Cut A Plea Deal In Drunken Hotel Rant Case

A court hearing for RHONY Luann De Lesseps in reference to her drunken felony assault on a police officer on Christmas Eve has been canceled for today or possibly postponed. Sources say that it’s likely that lawyers for Luann De Lesseps are trying to strike a plea deal to put this whole drunken event behind her to move on from what is perhaps the worst year of her life.

RHONY Luann De Lesseps Returned From Rehab To Face A Court Hearing

RHONY Luann De Lesseps headed to rehab after her arrest amidst family pressure. Luann’s first ex-husband, Count Alexandre De Lesseps and sources for Tom D’Agostino suggested that Luann De Lesseps was embarrassing herself and her family.

A friend of Tom D’Agostino said that nobody was surprised by Luann’s arrest.

“Tom left her for this reason because she was so violent. She used to punch, kick and scratch him. And in public. It doesn’t surprise me, especially when she drinks. And boy does she like to drink. She clearly has a problem.”

Count De Lesseps said that he wishes that Luann would drop the “De Lesseps” as she is ruining his family name.

“He told her she is ruining the family name and should drop it if she’s continuing to act like this… He is watching from abroad and is totally embarrassed.”

That was a quick rehab stint! https://t.co/j62lsPeY59
