Despite Arrest, Luann de Lesseps Still Set to Make Cabaret Debut


PageSix.com:
Luann de Lesseps — who announced on Friday that she will be entering rehab following her drunken hotel room arrest in Palm Beach, Fla., last week — already has a gig for the new year.

The “Real Housewives of New York City” star and “Money Can’t Buy You Class” singer has been working on a cabaret act.

“Countess and Friends” is said to be her debut “nightclub act” — which certainly takes on a new meaning since she was arrested after allegedly being found in bed with a mystery man in someone else’s hotel room.

Luann is scheduled at NYC supper club Feinstein’s/54 Below on Feb. 27 and March 8, unless she is still in rehab or isn’t permitted to leave Florida by the judge presiding over her case.

The venue’s site breathlessly says, “[D]e Lesseps’s glamorous life in the fast lane on several continents (together with a solid decade at the center of reality TV) provides fodder for hilarious stories, one-of-a-kind anecdotes, and, of course, some standards and pop songs in her inimitable style.”

It adds she will be joined by “an eclectic group of New York’s most sought after nightlife stars, both legendary and ascendant.” Luann’s show, it adds, “promises a glorious return to the heyday of cosmopolitan evening entertainment.”

Luann de Lesseps Checks Herself into Alcohol Treatment Center


People.com:
Days after her headline-making arrest, Luann de Lesseps is heading to rehab.

The Real Housewives of New York City star, 52, tells PEOPLE exclusively that she will be checking herself into a treatment facility.

“After the events of last Saturday night in Palm Beach, I am truly embarrassed,” she says. “I have decided to seek professional guidance and will be voluntarily checking into an alcohol treatment center. I intend to turn this unfortunate incident into a positive life changing event. Once again, I sincerely apologize for my actions. I have the greatest respect for police officers and the job they do.  My actions alleged in the police report do not reflect my core values and my law abiding character.
I am so grateful for the love and support that I am receiving from my family, friends and loyal supporters.”

De Lesseps was arrested Saturday and charged the following day with disorderly intoxication, battery on an officer/firefighter/EMT, resisting arrest with violence and threatening a public servant, according to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office.

$1 Million in Jewelry Stolen from Kyle Richards' Home While Family Vacations in Aspen


People.com:
Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky’s new home in Encino, California, was burglarized Wednesday while the couple and their kids vacationed in Aspen, Colorado, PEOPLE confirms.

Over $1 million dollars in jewelry, including $150,000 worth of watches owned by Umansky, was stolen from the property, according to TMZ, which first reported the news.

The break-in was discovered by a housekeeper, TMZ reports. The property was reportedly broken into via a window, and the home security system was not armed, though a closet sensor triggered by the burglars clocked the incident around 1:15 a.m. local time. Surveillance camera footage is being investigated to help nab culprits.

The Los Angeles Police Department told PEOPLE they have no information at this time. A representative for Richards did not immediately return PEOPLE’s request for comment.

Richards, 48, and Umansky, 47, bought the property in October for $8.2 million, Realtor.com reported.

The former child star told PEOPLE at the RHOBH Season 8 premiere party on Dec. 15 that her family was still in the process of moving in and renovating the house.

“It’s taking forever,” she said. “There’s probably like 50 workmen in my house a day, so it doesn’t feel like a home yet. It’s a house still. So I’m waiting to make it my home.”

Carlton Gebbia Sued for Allegedly Attacking Housekeeper


TMZ.com:
'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' alum Carlton Gebbia mopped the floor with her housekeeper, and the maid's now taking her to court ... and she says Gebbia even tried to kill herself.

The housekeeper -- referred to in the lawsuit as Jane Doe -- claims she was hired by Gebbia back in 2011 and toiled for 6 years as a housekeeper/nanny/chauffeur/grocery shopper/assistant.

Jane Doe claims Gebbia was often under the influence of alcohol and repeated physically, verbally and emotionally abusing her, including slapping her. She says 4 months ago, without provocation, a drunken Gebbia attacked her at her Bev Hills home.

She says the trigger was when Jane Doe texted Carlton's husband, David, and said Carlton had broken the TV in the movie room with a baseball bat. Jane Doe says when she tried to calm Carlton down, she became enraged, yelled at her and pushed her so hard, she fell against the door.
She says she was badly injured and was given 2 weeks off. She says the following month, she was fired.

Even more interesting ... the maid says over the last 6 years, Gebbia attempted to harm herself ... she mentions one incident in which she allegedly threw herself off the second story of her home.

We've reached out to Carlton's rep ... who said, "No comment."

Report Says Luann de Lesseps Was Caught in Bed with Male Pal Before Drunken Arrest


FOXNews.com:
“Real Housewives of New York” star Luann de Lesseps drunkenly attacked a Florida cop after she was discovered trespassing in a hotel room — and in bed with an unidentified man, according to a police report released Tuesday.

De Lesseps, 52, and her male pal allegedly entered Room 407 at the Colony hotel in Palm Beach while a maid was finishing a turn-down service Saturday night.

A security guard who went to the room found the couple in bed there and told de Lesseps — who was registered to stay in Room 327 — and the man they had to leave, the report says.

Following “multiple attempts to get both subjects to leave over a five minute period,” the guard called for help, and two cops arrived around 9:20 p.m., finding de Lesseps and her longtime friend Julie Olson in the room.

Both women “appeared to be highly intoxicated,” and while Olson followed orders to leave, de Lesseps locked herself in the bathroom and refused to come out, the report says.

She finally opened the door when the guard began using a key on the lock, then allegedly shoved one of the cops — identified as “Officer O’Leary” — in the chest with her palm, then slammed the door on his face, “striking him in the forehead,” the report says.

After being handcuffed and put in the back of a police cruiser, de Lesseps allegedly slipped out of the shackles and tried to escape, screaming, “I’m going to f--king kill you” as the cops subdued her again.

Lizzie Rovsek Files for Divorce from Husband of 8 Years

And that makes three in the OC.

Former “Real Housewife of Orange County” Lizzie Rovsek has filed for divorce from her husband Christian, Radar Online reports.

The pageant queen and her husband had been married for eight years and appeared on season nine of the Bravo franchise.

According to court documents obtained by Radar, the 37-year-old mom of two filed a petition for dissolution of marriage in October and her now-ex, also 37, has yet to respond.
