Former “Real Housewives of New York City” star Luann de Lesseps spilled that she once made out with A-list actor Hugh Grant during an interview with TooFab following one of her “Marry F Kill!” cabaret tour stops in November 2024, and Grant responded to her claims in a November 25 post on Twitter.
“Steady on. I do remember meeting a charming RHNY in a restaurant, but I’d like to stress it was about 15 years ago. I don’t recall shots or kissing but her memory might be better than mine,” Grant wrote in the post alongside a screenshot of a headline referring to de Lesseps’ prior comments.
How Does Luann de Lesseps Remember Her Makeout With Hugh Grant?
While Grant is not quite sure that he and de Lesseps locked lips, she shared the whole story with TooFab, telling the outlet in her November 2024 interview, “A girlfriend of mine called me and was like Hugh Grant is at Pierre’s [in The Hamptons]. I said, ‘I’ll be right over.’ I called and said, ‘Get the table right next to Hugh Grant.’ I had my family over, my brother was visiting me, and I said, ‘Let’s go’.”
De Lesseps went on to share, “I said, ‘Sit me right behind him.’ I pushed out my chair real fast and I bumped into him — flirting 101 — I bumped into him and said, ‘Oh I’m so sorry.’ He knows who I am because I know Andy [Cohen]. I go, ‘I’m so sorry. Can I buy you a shot I feel terrible.’ He goes, ‘Okay, but I’ll come have a shot with you if you do one with me.’ Before you know it, we are taking shots and making out… heavily at the table! My brother was like, ‘I can’t believe you’re making out with Hugh Grant’, and I was like, ‘Neither can I.'”
Luann de Lesseps Found a Man on Dating Show ‘Love Hotel’
While de Lesseps is reminiscing on past makeout sessions, she’s also preparing for her new dating show, “Love Hotel”, to air on Peacock. “Love Hotel” will feature de Lesseps and fellow “Housewives” stars Shannon Beador (from “Orange County”), Gizelle Bryant, and Ashley Darby (both from “Potomac”) as they look for love while staying at a resort in Cabo San Lucas.
De Lesseps opened up about the new series in a November 20 interview clip from SiriusXM’s “Jeff Lewis Live”.
“I actually find a very interesting guy on that show. Much to my surprise. I was amazed that [Peacock] brought around such good looking, successful guys, so I actually met somebody that I really like,” de Lesseps shared.
