00:00Hi, I'm Luanne de Lesseps, and you're watching Us Weekly.

00:21Let's talk about dating, walk us through your exes and the one lesson that you've learned

00:26from each of them.

00:27Oh, geez.

00:28Are we starting with losing virginity?

00:30How are we losing virginity?

00:33Well, I actually was a late bloomer, I didn't have sex until I was 18, senior prom, I mean

00:39how typical.

00:42And one tip I learned is I don't want to have first time sex in a car, it's very uncomfortable.

00:48So you lost your virginity in a car?

00:49I did.

00:50Typical.

00:51The entrance to your sexual career.

00:54And then after that?

00:57Well, then I had a boyfriend.

00:59I was a nurse in Connecticut and his name was Joe Wearsbicki.

01:03He wanted to marry me, right?

01:05I'd be Mrs. Wearsbicki, so I dodged a bullet.

01:08But it's a crazy story, but I tell this in my cabaret show, I come in, I was going to

01:15surprise him.

01:16After a nursing shift and I walk in and he's getting a blowjob from a queen, a drag queen,

01:23but a really unattractive drag queen.

01:25So guess what?

01:26A drag queen saved my life.

01:28So that ended that relationship.

01:29I'm going to make that into a song.

01:31I think you should.

01:32And have you heard from him since?

01:35No, you must be dead.

01:36I swear to God, because in all this time, and believe me, he tried to get me back for

01:42years.

01:43So it's been a long time.

01:45And what did you learn from that?

01:46That's where I learned that people have fetishes.

01:50And then after that, was the next guy the count or was it?

01:58No.

01:59Then I had, I dated Keith Hernandez, the Mets player.

02:04So I'm out and we have drinks and I meet Keith and we walk out and people start asking

02:11him for, and I was a model in New York at the time.

02:13So people started asking him for his autograph.

02:16I said, are you famous?

02:19He had, I had no idea who he was.

02:21And you were dating him at the time?

02:22And I was dating him, but I didn't know who he was.

02:24No, I just met him and I was walking down the street with him.

02:27We left to go out and people were asking for his autograph.

02:31And I go, you're famous.

02:35And he go, and that's what he loved about me is that I didn't know he was famous.

02:39So I think other famous people like it when you don't know they're famous.

02:42So that's what you learned from that relationship?

02:43That's what I learned from that.

02:44And how long were you with him?

02:46We dated for like six months for quite a while.

02:48And then I moved to Europe and I met the count.

02:51And what I learned from that relationship is that there is love at first sight because

03:01we got married after two weeks.

03:03So, and it lasted a long time.

03:05It's 16 years, 16 years.

03:08So we tell people, I say, you know, listen, I was married for 16 years.

03:13I have two beautiful children who are called Deliseps.

03:16So I'm keeping the title, bitches.

03:18I earned it.

03:19Yeah.

03:20And listen, Tom, he was a blip on the screen.

03:22I learned that pay attention to the red flags.

03:25With Tom.

03:26With Tom.

03:27Between Tom, there was Jack.

03:28Oh, Jack.

03:29He was such a sweetheart.

03:30We love Jack.

03:31You still buy his wine, right?

03:33No, he sends me the wine.

03:34I don't buy it.

03:35Yeah, of course.

03:36It's very good wine as well.

03:37It is.

03:38So, no, Jack and I have remained friends.

03:41And what I realized from that relationship is I'd rather have Jack as my friend for life

03:47than have a relationship that wasn't working.

03:50So we've remained friends all this time.

03:53And well, like I said, you know, I'm happy to have that friendship because it will last

03:58a lifetime as opposed to a relationship gone wrong.

04:01And then back to Tom, the lesson you learned there.

04:04Watch out for the red flags.

04:06Because love is blind.

04:07Love is blind.

04:08And, you know, listen, I was in love with Tom.

04:11No doubt about it.

04:12And what are your red flags in a relationship?

04:14Well, red flags for me are, of course, men that, you know, they're looking the other

04:20way.

04:21If you're sitting with them at dinner and their heads are like turning to see who's coming

04:24in the door.

04:25What are the red flags?

04:28There's many.

04:29People that are men that don't respect other people and the way they talk to them.

04:35Like I've seen guys treat people terribly and I hate that.

04:40And other red flags or he still lives with his mother.

04:45How about green flags?

04:47What turns you on and makes you do this?

04:48Oh, green flags are confidence or, you know, a guy that's successful, a man who is kind-hearted,

04:58who does things out of kindness and who adore me.

05:01That's the green flag.

05:02Somebody like James from the Love Hotel.

05:04Do you believe you've already met your soulmate or is this something you look forward to in

05:08the future?

05:09You know, I'm dating right now.

05:11So, um, I do believe in romance.

05:17I do believe that three times the charm.

05:19I sing that in my song, Mary F. Kill three times the charm.

05:23So catch me if you can.

05:26And so anyway, so, um, I believe in romance.

05:29I believe in love.

05:30What's life worth living without love.

05:32Right.

05:33Um, so I'm a hopeless romantic and, you know, would I ever get married again?

05:38I don't know what for.

05:39I mean, I have beautiful children.

05:41Um, I have, you know, career, beautiful homes, et cetera.

05:46I don't know.

05:47I mean, if a man were to step into my life and, um, you know, sweep me up my feet.

05:52I don't know if I would say no to that.

05:54Would you be the golden bachelorette if they asked you?

05:57Hell yeah.

05:58I'd love to.

05:59Oh my God.

06:00I did love hotel.

06:01Now the golden bachelorette would be great.

06:03Right.

06:04So why not?

06:05I mean, do you think you would throw those boys at me?

06:07I'm ready.

06:08Would you get married again?

06:09Yeah.

06:10I'll never say never.

06:11And like I said, I'm hopeless romantic.

06:13So you just never know.

06:15And that's what's so magical about life.

06:17You just never know.
