Luann de Lesseps and Sonja Morgan didn’t mince words when asked which “Housewife” they “hope to never interact with again.”
“Kelly Dodd,” Morgan, 59, bluntly told Entertainment Tonight on Thursday. “Jesus, I will not do an appearance with that woman. I can’t.”
Meanwhile, de Lesseps said she could go without ever seeing Carole Radziwill or Bethenny Frankel.
“Same with Carole, you know, she trashed our show. Bethenny trashed our show … I don’t even want to give her air time,” de Lesseps, 58, said.
“We don’t bite the hand that feeds up,” Morgan jumped in.
The two women — who star in the new spinoff “Luann and Sonja: Welcome to Crappie Lake” — shared similar sentiments while on Pvnew’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast earlier this month.
Morgan and de Lesseps had just returned from filming “The Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls Trip” in St. Barts where they were joined by Dorinda Medley, Ramona Singer, Kelly Bensimon and Kristen Taekman.
Yet when asked what they would’ve done if Frankel showed up, de Lesseps joked that she would’ve made her rival “walk the plank.”
“You know what happens to pirates? Sometimes they go down with the ship,” the former countess joked.
While Morgan noted that Frankel, 52, makes “great TV,” she insisted that things were better off without her.
“We could always use the extra ratings but we didn’t have to have that,” she explained. “This was a very in-sync group it was a perfect group for me.”
De Lesseps and Frankel — who launched “Real Housewives of New York” in 2008 — have a long and well-documented history of drama.
After Frankel announced she leaving the Bravo series for good in 2019, de Lesseps didn’t shy away from voicing her excitement.
“I think the whole cast is relieved in a way,” she said on SiriusXM’s “The Jenny McCarthy Show.”
“It also leaves breathing room for other women to shine and show their personalities because a lot was Bethenny coming in and stealing the show.”
She also called out the Skinny Girl founder for using the show to “promote” her own brands while refusing to help other castmates do the same.
Then, when Frankel announced she was starting a “Real Housewives” rewatch podcast, the performer publicly slammed the “desperate” business venture.
“It’s pretty sad and pathetic that she has to resort to ‘Housewives’ because of all of her failed pivots since the ‘Housewives,’” she said on the “Everything Iconic” podcast, noting that Frankel spent the majority of her years away from “RHONY” “sh–ting on the show.”
Following years of building tensions, the pair nearly came face to face at the Broadway opening night of “Bad Cinderella” in March.
Insiders told Pvnew that de Lesseps stormed out of the theater after realizing she had been seated directly across the aisle from her former castmate.
“She looked visibly upset and they left in a huff,” a source said of the “Feelin’ Jovani” chanteuse, noting that no words were exchanged between the Bravo alums, “just a look.”
After learning about de Lesseps’ abrupt exit, Frankel added fuel to the fire on her “ReWives” podcast.
“It must be painful and challenging and really obsessive to be so fixated on someone else,” she told listeners.
“It’s time to sort of focus on yourself versus being so consumed with somebody else.”
