“Real Housewives of New York” newbie Leah McSweeney is furious about co-star Ramona Singer’s travels during the coronavirus pandemic.
McSweeney, 37, went on an Instagram tear after Singer, 61, and her 25-year-old daughter, Avery, traveled from New York to quarantine in Boca Raton, Fla., in March and then returned home about a week ago as Florida’s coronavirus cases began to spike.
“I am so disgusted by some of my castmates and their families who spent the entire f—ng quarantine in Florida, living it up, showing everyone how they’re living it up,” the Married to the Mob clothing company founder said in an Instagram video. “Then Florida of course faces surge. They f—-ng come back to New York and they’re out like nothing. Not quarantining. Not taking this s–t seriously. And basically laughing in all of our faces.”
Although McSweeney didn’t mention Singer by name, the Ageless by Ramona Singer founder was the only current “RHONY” star to be in Florida during the pandemic and frequently posted about her jaunts to the beach, her workouts and going out for meals with friends.
Last week, Singer came home to New York and went straight to her Hamptons mansion, while Avery went straight to her NYC apartment.
“F–k you guys,” McSweeney continued while raising her middle finger to the camera. “How f—d up is it that you think you’re going to reap the benefits of our hard work and possibly spread f–king COVID?”
A rep for McSweeney declined to comment.
Meanwhile, Singer told Page Six on Thursday that she has no regrets about her decision to travel and quarantine in Florida for three months and disagreed with McSweeney’s take on her actions.
“My family and I quarantined in Florida for more than three months to stay together during this crisis,” she told us. “It was the best thing we could have done for one another and I am so fortunate that my ex-husband [Mario] offered for us to stay with him. It was always the plan to come back to New York at this time and we took every precaution possible while traveling. The continued health and safety of my family, friends and community is of the utmost importance to me.”
She previously told Page Six that she jetted off to Florida to “recuperate” in March as she suffered from Lyme disease.
“I’m getting a lot of rest because when your immune system is lower, you need a good nine hours of sleep,” she said at the time. “You need to not push yourself which for me is a little hard to do. I’m used to being active nonstop, but I’m doing it. And I’m isolating with Avery in Florida and we’re doing great. So I hope everyone is isolating themselves as we all should.”
Her hard work in Florida seemed to pay off, as she revealed in April that her “Lyme is gone.”
“I don’t have chronic Lyme, my immune system is strong again,” she proclaimed in an interview with “Daily Mail TV.”
