Luann de Lesseps reveals she continues to struggle with alcohol despite being in rehab twice since Christmas, despite short stints both times.
Luann de Lesseps left rehab about two weeks ago as she relapsed last month. She learned that her ex-husband and her two children were suing her for millions of dollars as they believed that she had spent the money that she was supposed to put in a trust fund for the kids. The lawsuit came as a shock and she felt it was the ultimate betrayal. But the shocker was that Luann only went into rehab for two weeks before checking out once again to work.
Of course, Luann de Lesseps has worked on her own cabaret show, but The Real Housewives of New York viewers feel that she may not be well enough to film the show and be out of rehab. They believe she needs to go away for a long time, as she has admitted that she still struggles with drinking. For her, she can’t just have a single drink. In fact, she needs to drink all the time, and she opened up about her struggles during an interview with the Today Show.
Here, Luann de Lesseps opened up about everything she was drinking after learning about the lawsuit. She listed that she drank watermelon drinks, beers, wine and hard liquor. She didn’t hold back and she revealed that she clearly still had a problem.
Carole Radziwill has revealed that she’s quitting the show, but she was one of Luann’s biggest supporters as she felt that Luann was doing everything to stay sober. But she may have changed her mind now that she knows how Luann can easily relapse and how she only goes to rehab for a few weeks at a time.
