Bravo fans were treated to a nostalgic surprise when Countess Luann de Lesseps shared a video on Instagram capturing a chic summer reunion with fellow โReal Housewives of New York Cityโ stars.
Shared on Aug. 18, the clip showed de Lesseps enjoying the Hamptons sunshine alongside Kelly Bensimon, Jill Zarin, and Sonja Morganโthree names synonymous with RHONY history.
De Lesseps captioned the post with her signature wit, giving fans just enough of a tease to stir up excitement.
โThe Big Apple is always temptingโฆ and my girls never miss a bite. ๐,โ she wrote.
The short video, filmed in Sag Harbor, carried all the glitz, glamour, and lighthearted chaos that fans love. The group looked effortlessly stylish, smiling and laughing as they strutted down the road.
RuPaulโs โBring Back My Girlsโ played during the short clip.
For longtime Bravo viewers, seeing these women together again sparked instant nostalgia for the franchiseโs earlier seasons, which helped define the Housewives phenomenon.
Fans React
Within hours, comments poured in from followers who were thrilled to see the ladies reuniting off-screen.
“The best rhony girls walking to a rupaul songโฆ as god intended,” one fan said.
Many even begged for Bravo cameras to follow them around the Hamptons for old timesโ sake.
“Petition to bring back the REAL RHONY๐,” another user wrote.
Even the popular pet store PetSmart weighed in on seeing the reality TV stars together. “Someone tag Andy [Cohen] rn and tell him to get moving,” the account wrote.
RHONY alum Ramona Singer even commented on the video as she wasn’t able to make it.
โSo sorry I missed being there with you all, as wasnโt well,โ she wrote, as she added a couple of crying emojis.
Luann Previously Gave Her Thoughts on a Possible Return
De Lesseps openly spoke with Parade in an exclusive in June of 2025 and explained why the RHONY reboot struggled to resonate with fans.
She explained that the decision to launch an entirely new cast left longtime viewers without the connections that made the original series thrive.
The reality TV star added she has a simple solution for it. “I think that they should combine the cast,โ she said of the original and new cast members. โI mean, I think the first problem was that they had an all-new cast and they didnโt keep the OGs.”
De Lesseps revealed that there had previously been talks on bringing the OG show back, but she doesn’t know the latest regarding it. As for herself, she said, “I never say never. I say maybe.โ
