'Real Housewives' Drama Erupts as Show Veteran Sonja Morgan Opens Up About Her Side of Bust-Up Over $1K Restaurant Bill That Got Her 'Blacklisted'
- Sonja Morgan, a 61-year-old former Real Housewives of New York star, caused a scene over a $1,000 bill during a Saturday night dinner at Tucci in Noho with five guests attending a three-person reservation.
- The incident happened because Morgan mistakenly believed the meal would be complimentary in exchange for a promotional post, a misunderstanding fueled by her prior receipt of free dinners at the restaurant.
- Morgan reportedly refused to pay initially, became hysterical shouting, "I'm a celebrity!", and demanded a comp, while owner Max Tucci denied any arrangement and said she was taking advantage of the restaurant’s generosity.
- Morgan later paid the bill and tip by Monday, admitted the miscommunication in a statement to Page Six, and reiterated she informed staff about her belief regarding the promotional meal arrangement.
- Tucci confirmed Morgan is now banned from the restaurant and emphasized the need to respect staff and cover costs amid expensive times, highlighting the fallout from the dispute.
