“I want to offer my sincere apologies to anyone I might have offended with my behavior,“ de Lesseps said in a statement.
Luann de Lesseps blames her drunken- Palm Beach arrest on a flood of emotions.
“This was my first time in Palm Beach since my wedding, and being here brought up long-buried emotions,” the “ Real Housewives of New York ” star, 52, told Page Six in a statement. “I want to offer my sincere apologies to anyone I might have offended with my behavior.”
Despite the end-of-the-year blip, de Lesseps plans to turn it around. “I am committed to a transformative and hopeful 2018,” she added.
She divorced her ex-husband, Tom D’Agostino Jr., in August after tying the knot in Palm Beach in late December 2016 .
The Bravo fixture was arrested Sunday morning for disorderly intoxication, battery of an officer, resisting arrest and threatening a public servant.
During her encounter with police, de Lesseps reportedly slammed a door and kicked an officer. She also allegedly threatened those nearby, saying: “I’m going to kill you all.”
On Sunday, she appeared before Judge Ted Booras and was released without bond.
Judge Booras also gave her permission to leave Florida and return to New York.
However, she is due in court on January 25,2018.
As for D’Agostino, he’s got his own feelings over his ex-wife’s behavior.
We’re told he’s very sad about de Lessep’s arrest, especially since it happened close to where their wedding was held and almost exactly a year later.
But sources close to the former couple say that the incident casts new light on their breakup. “At the time people didn’t believe Tom when he said that Luann had scratched him,” said an insider, “But what happened in Palm Beach shows that this consistent behavior on Luann’s part. It should make people reassess the story of why their relationship ended.”
The source added that D’Agostino — who is currently in Palm Beach — didn’t know de Lesseps was in town until he read about the arrest.
