— Luann D'Agostino (@CountessLuann) August 3, 2017The announcement arrives just weeks after a report from Page Six that there was trouble in the marriage and that she slapped her new husband at an upscale NYC restaurant.
She partially confirmed the report, clarifying that it was more of a "tap" than a "slap" on Bravo's "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen." She also said their tumultuous marriage was a result of their "very passionate love affair."
Their relationship has been a running storyline on the reality show. Many of her cast mates had reported to LuAnn that Tom was cheating on her with various people. She married him anyway in January.
