ICYMI: Luann De Lesseps and Cynthia Bailey are close pals. The Real Housewives of New York City alum has been a longtime friend of The Real Housewives of Atlanta friend, and they just spent time in the Hamptons together, which allowed fans a new look inside their bond.
Cynthia recently took to Instagram, where she revealed that Luann had hosted her at her four-bedroom, four-bathroom house in the Hamptons. In the series of photos, Cynthia can be seen serving some serious face alongside Luann; hanging out with Luann’s daughter, Victoria De Lesseps, and their friend, Carson Kressley; and enjoying her time on Luann’s waterfront property.
“Thank you to my lovely & always a good time friend [Luann] for hosting such a beautiful evening with your family,” Cynthia wrote in the caption of the post. “Dinner was delicious, the energy was a vibe, & the view was spectacular!”
Luann returned the appreciation to Cynthia in the comments of the post. “Always a pleasure having you, darling,” she wrote.
Luann shared her perspective from the evening in a Reel, which she posted to her Instagram feed. In the video, the “Money Can’t Buy You Class” singer can be seen fighting off a storm at her house, trying to get rid of the water, playing darts with Cynthia, and walking along a dock while observing the sunset. “The storm came rolling in, but nothing can ruin good company,” she captioned the video.
She also posted a video of them leaving the Hamptons as they pulled their Hulken bags along with them. Both Cynthia and Luann looked so fashionable in their sundresses and hats as they walked next to each other. “Leaving in style,” she wrote.
Cynthia Bailey opens up about her friendship with Luann De Lesseps
Fans will remember that Luann and Cynthia took Bravo viewers inside their friendship on Season 1 of The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip and more recently reunited on Bravo’s Love Hotel.
During a December 2024 episode of her podcast, Humble Brag with Crystal and Cynthia, Cynthia gave some insight into her friendship with Luann and revealed that she loves how Luann is “unapologetically” herself. “We go way, way, way back,” Cynthia explained during the episode.
“I don’t like drama that much,” Luann admitted during the episode.
“No, which is why we’ve been friends for so long,” Cynthia agreed. “Because I don’t like friend drama.”
Cynthia Bailey admits that she loves the Hamptons
Although Luann has her own house in the Hamptons (more on that down below), Cynthia has been a longtime visitor of the Long Island beach community. “I love the Hamptons,” she told Hamptons.com in 2021. “I’ve been going to the Hamptons forever,” she continued. “I lived in New York before I moved to Atlanta for my modeling career. I was living in New York about 18 years ago.”

But, Luann won’t be spending too much time at the house in the Hamptons this summer, as she is renting it out during the month of August. The New York Post reported earlier this month that Luann will be spending the upcoming month traveling to Monaco, France, Ibiza, and Scotland, and therefore listed the home for rent for $150,000 a month for a period of time.
