Real Housewives legend Countess Luann eyes cameo on UK show

Date: 2024-10-29

REAL Housewives of New York legend Countess Luann is angling for a cameo on our homegrown spin-off.

The American TV personality, real name Luann de Lesseps, has become a fan favourite on both sides of the pond after starring in thirteen series of the reality show.

And now she’s heading to the UK to entertain her British followers.

The Real Housewives of Cheshire stars famous faces including Lauren Simon and Rachel Lugo.

In even better timing, Hayu this weekend announced a brand-new spin-off, Real Housewives of London.

Luann said: “The UK is a whole other level. I love my fans. They show up for me. 

“I’ve not watched Cheshire but I’d love to see what it’s like -maybe I could do a cameo when I’m back next.”

Her next trip to our shores will be early next year with her brand new cabaret show. 

Her Countess Cabaret tour begins in Glasgow on February 13 and comes after she wowed crowds at London’s Mighty Hoopla festival last summer

Luann said: “UK fans put on their best sequined outfit, their best statement necklace, and they show up looking glamorous. And that’s a huge nod to my show. 

“People in the UK, I must say, have a much more sensational fashion sense.

“My show is very personal, and it’s about the life you don’t get to see on the Housewives.

“It’s pop culture and cabaret and comedy and a fashion show all mixed into one. Because, you know, I will be wearing my best Jovani!

“The show is immersive. The audience is a part of the experience, and that’s what makes it so special.”

Luann feels at home in the UK because of her pal and Bridgerton star Nicola Coughlan.

But performing at the festival in South London would’ve taken Luann, who was once married to a Count, away from her usual luxury

She laughed: “There’s no porta potty that I love. Let’s put it that way. I mean, the porta potties at Hoopla were more elevated in the UK than they are in the US, but there’s not one porta potty that I love.”

Tickets for Countess Cabaret are on sale now at countessluann.com
