Tongues have been wagging (not at the Regency Hotel this time!) that Tom D’Agostino is already engaged again, even though he hasn’t finalized his divorce from Luann de Lesseps.
After a whirlwind and tumultuous courtship, Luann and Tom were married for less than a year when those indefatigable cheating rumors popped up again and the Real Housewives Of New York star announced their split. While both parties deny infidelity and insist their split was amicable, Tom has already been linked to socialite and PR rep Anna Rothschild who was recently spotted wearing a 15 carat diamond on that finger.
Anna denies the ring was a gift from Tom – instead the $2 million dollar sparkler was a gift from another man. However, Anna also denies a romantic relationship with Tom, and instead says they have been “best friends for 15 years.” Although, someday, if it’s in the reality TV stars, she’d love a romantic future with him! Wasn’t that Sonja Morgan’s story too?
“I adore Tom. I would love to marry Tom because he’s such a great guy, but it’s bad timing for both of us,” Anna told Page Six.

If you care, the ring reportedly came from a Nigerian Prince Turkish art collector named Ahmet Kocabiyik, who has vacationed in the Hamptons with Anna. And we know about what happens in a Hamptons vacation home! Anna also refused to comment on that connection.
Neither Luann nor Tom have commented on any rumors about Anna. Both say they are currently single.
Well why do I have a feeling this Anna is angling towards a spot on Real Housewives Of New York? As a way to keep the Tom drama alive and well, or as way to simply position herself as connected to the cast and land a spot on the show. She knows Ramona, is good friends with Sonja, was, at one point, friends with Luann (whom she met THROUGH Tom)…

Sonja recently dished on Anna and Tom’s connection. “Anything is possible,” she shared with OK! of the likelihood of Anna and Tom having an affair. Sonja added, “I always said best friends make the best marriages. And she really does know Tom!” Well, Bravo is casting.
You can see photos of Anna here which were taken at a RHONY filming, actually! And here with Luann.
