Luann de Lesseps is clearing up the news regarding her spontaneous connection with Southern Hospitality’s Joe Bradley.
In case you missed it, a few weeks back, Luann and Joe were the talk of the Bravoverse after sources spilled the tea that the pair were getting super lovey-dovey/touchy-feely after a Watch What Happens Live appearance. Of course, it was a shock to us all, as Joe had previously told the world he was head over heels for Summer House star Danielle Olivera.
Although the 28-year-old denied the rumors, saying he was at The Dream Hotel with a giant group, including his part-time girlfriend, the Real Housewives of New York alum is definitely interested should things go south between the new couple.
Luann says she’d pounce at Joe Bradley if given the chance
Thanks to TMZ, they caught up with Luann outside of Tamron Hall’s studio and asked the OG Housewife about the streets rumbling with rumors that she’s hooking up with Joe.
“Well, we definitely had great chemistry,” she said about her connection. “And we went out to have drinks. What’s wrong with that?”
When asked if her entanglement with Joe was an official “thing,” she didn’t deny it but pointed to his situationship with Danielle.
Later, Luann cleared up all the chatter regarding the supposed NYC sleepover. “He did not sleep over my house,” she said. “People love to think those things, of course they do, it’s sexy talk. [But] he has a girlfriend.”
However, before running off, Luann added that should Joe and Danielle split, she’s more than happy to take her place. “Hell yeah,” she said. “Are you kidding me? … I’m a little bit of a cougar — let’s put it that way.”
Southern Hospitality continues Thursdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
