“Real Housewives of New York” star Luann de Lesseps has confirmed she’s dating hunky South African trainer Garth Wakeford.
The pair were photographed this month on a date at a celebrity hot spot in the Hamptons. Luann has confirmed the relationship on the podcast “Ex Appeal,” hosted by exes Jenn Lahmers and Julien Marlon.
Apparently, the former countess and Wakeford met on Hinge. “We actually met on the dating app … He lives locally in the Hamptons,” she said. When the reality star saw his pics on the app she figured, “Oh, he is too good to be true.” But when they met for coffee, with masks on, “I said, ‘Oh, my God! He’s exactly what he looks like on the app.’ He’s tall, he’s handsome, he looks like a viking,” Luann related. She and her new 6-foot-6 beau were also spotted leaving the eatery and hopping into his Mercedes convertible.
Staying busy, Luann also recently announced on another podcast, “Red Carpet Rendezvous” hosted by Lauren Conlin, that she’s working on a new tune. “I’m now working on a Christmas song,” she said. “We’re trying to turn it around quickly for the holidays and get the video out.” She added that for the music video, “There’s a lot of people joining me … I can’t tell you who it’s going to be … you might see a housewife or two.” We hear she’s also working on her own podcast for 2021.
