Luann de Lesseps pleaded to “being fabulous” in her tagline for season 11 of the Real Housewives of New York. A ballsy nod to Countess Lu’s arrest in Palm Beach for being a hot drunk mess. These days the Countess’s fabulousness consists of more feuding than etiquette, so there are plenty of candidates for the crown of “least favorite.”
Luann’s conflicts with Dorinda Medley and Ramona Singer have been a focus of the season so far. Both costars angered Luann by mocking her approach toward rehab and recovery. For the moment, Luann and Bethenny Frankel appear to be on solid ground. But based on their past, there is some truth to Ramona calling it a friendship by “default.” In past seasons, Luann and Carole Radziwill were mostly “all uncool.” It was a coldness rooted in Carole’s relationship with Adam Kenworthy, Luann’s former chef and the ex-boyfriend of her niece. Luann has even accused Tinsely Mortimer of being a mean girl even though I don’t think Tins could hurt a fly. So, who is Lu’s least favorite Housewife?
Despite all of the fresh bad blood, an article in OK Magazine revealed that Luann’s least favorite RHONY costar is Alex McCord. What a throwback! Luann shared this fun fact the stage of the Borgata Hotel in Atlantic City while performing her #CountessandFriends cabaret show.

Then during an audience Q&A, someone asked Luann to name her least favorite RHONY costar. “I would say Alex McCord,” Luann replied, adding, “Oh my god and Simon [van Kempen], oh my god!” Can I get a hallelujah, people? No true fan of RHONY will ever forget Luann saying, “Even Louis Vuitton makes mistakes” in response to Alex’s truly hideous Herman Munster shoes. And most fans will remember that Simon was the unofficial eighth housewife, so this is like a two-for one.
Alex and Simon appeared on RHONY for four seasons. The mother-of-two was fired along with Jill Zarin, Cindy Barshop and Kelly Bensimon before season five began filming.
