RHUGT: Luann de Lesseps - Life is a Cabaret, Until You Get to Court

Legal team, we are ending our coverage on the ladies from the Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip here. On the docket this week is Real Housewives of New York icon Luann de Lesseps featuring a recap of an earlier episode we did about her arrest (linked below), as well as the lawsuits she faced from her ex-husband, Alexandre, and her two children, Victoria and Noel, which she found out about through the press and then proceeded to blame her relapse on. We go through the details of her plea agreement, probation, and the preliminary injunction that helped resolve the family lawsuit. And we also discuss how her arresting officer ended up getting charged himself for crimes that were a complete failure of our justice system. Listen until the end to hear us answer some more of your questions from our last Q&A — what made us become lawyers? Are we going to Bravo Fan Fest? And, how do we manage work/life balance?
