Bethenny Frankel and Kelly Killoren Bensimon won’t be the only unmarried Real Housewives of New York City should the series get picked up for a third installment.
Countess LuAnn de Lesseps and her husband, Count Alexandre de Lesseps, have split after 16 years of marriage, E! News confirms.
“It is obviously a very difficult time for the countess and count, but they plan to remain friends and their primary focus will be to do what is best for their two children,” the reality star’s rep, Elizabeth Rosenthal, said in a statement.
The count allegedly was having an affair and let his wife know just after they celebrated their anniversary.
“She got wind he was seeing somebody and he didn’t answer her when she called,” a “close pal” tells the New York Post. “He finally sent her an email saying he was with an Ethiopian woman in Geneva, and he was serious with her.”
The Bravo babe is the fourth wife of the royal, and their children, Victoria and Noel, are 14 and 12, respectively. Her first book, Class With the Countess, hits shelves next month.
Update: the Ethiopian Woman has a name.

Waygud.. it had to be a habasha women…she’s not doing any justice for Ethiopia
kkkkk…how silly is this i bet the media just made up she was an ethiopian women that was sooo insignificant to the story what was the point of mentioning she was Ethiopian..really..i mean the story would have been understand regardless..a cheater is a cheater no matter who the person he cheated with..
I hear those Ethiopian women suck your thing while washing your feet…maybe that Ethiopian women was more submissive i am sure she was..
Ethiopian women dont wash ur feet……they f……u good
Heil our Ethiopian princess! I am sure the Count must have noticed the ‘inner beauty’ as well as the reserved nature of most of our ladies. If i were a count, i wouldnt want my wife to be acting in a ‘ desperate houswives’ type of show. In Holywood, one cannt tell where acting commences and realty sets in. Those suggestive scenes are sometimes followed by action. Thus tough lack to the ex, for she should have known better. “arfa bitkemet tata balmetabat!”
I read most you yall comments and I think some of them don’t make sense. You can not steal a man or a woman and if you do its called kidnapping. These are human beings not purses or money. He knows how to say no and when he was in the church saying his vows he understood what they meant and what he was pleadging. If he loved his wife so much then this other woman wouldn’t be a problem. There would be no headline story. Everyone needs to just realize he was unhappy and instead of him being a man about it and just leaving her, he just waited till he found someone. This woman is not to blame and neither is angeline jolie. Get a Life!!
Did anyone pay attention that the article said she was his fourth wife? He definitely doesn’t take marriage seriously. He’s working on wife number five.
IF YOU WANT TO BE MARRIED “FOREVER” PICK A GUY WITH A BETTER TRACK RECORD.
