Luann de Lesseps is ready to find love — with a much younger man.
The “Real Housewives of New York City” alum, 58, detailed her desire to find a “true partner” in his late 30s or 40s during her Wednesday appearance on the “Tamron Hall Show,” saying that older men are “challenged” in the bedroom.
“So right now, all the 40-year-olds, the 30, 40-year-olds, are up into my stuff, if I can say that,” de Lesseps explained.
“The 50-year-olds are like, ‘Oh damn, I’m 50. I need a 20-year-old.’”
“The 60-year-olds are a little challenged, you know what I mean, down in that department.”
The TV personality continued, “And the 70-year-olds just want to have a good time all day long.”
“So it’s really from the 40s … you know, late [30s], 40s, for me, is my sweet spot.”
She added that a person around the age of 48 or 49 would be ideal, but confirmed she was not opposed to seeing a “young 50-year-old.”
The cabaret singer also stated that she’s “kind of a cougar” because she “grew up with six brothers and sisters and four older brothers.”
“So I’m very comfortable with men. I love men, I love flirting,” she said.
The Bravolebrity has allowed fans into her love life ever since her “RHONY” debut in 2008 when she was married to Count Alexandre de Lesseps.
However, after two children and 16 years of marriage, he filed for divorce, leaving her heartbroken.
Although they had already been separated in private, the reality star admitted to People at the time that she still had faith her marital issues would work themselves out.
Instead, she received an email from her ex-husband saying he had met someone and that “they were serious.”
However, gray skies soon cleared for de Lesseps when she met Gabriela Fine Wines owner Jacques Azoulay, whom she dated for four years before they split in 2013.
Giving insight into their breakup, her rep told Bravo at the time, “They are at different points in their life now and have mutually agreed it’s best.
“Luann is upset, but it’s amicable and they remain friends. Jacques has been a wonderful part of her life.”
The “Class with the Countess: How to Live with Elegance and Flair” writer was then swept off her feet by businessman Tom D’Agostino, whom she wed in 2016.
However, the marriage ended just seven months later, with an insider telling Page Six that D’Agostino did not appreciate the fame that came with their union.
“He used to live this really nice life in the city,” an insider told us at the time.
“He’s a private person and all of a sudden he was living this crazy celebrity life.”
Meanwhile, de Lesseps also denied to Page Six in 2017 that cheating was involved in their marriage.
“It was impossible, we were having problems and we tried really hard to fix things, and we finally came to the conclusion it was just not going to work,” she explained.
“It was a tough decision and we are both very sad about it. But the truth is we just weren’t getting along.”
