RUMSON, NEW JERSEY: Ramona Singer has found a new love. According to the Daily Mail, the 'Real Housewives of New York City' star is dating financer William "Bill" Luby of New Jersey.
Ramona, who will feature in the upcoming season of 'Real Housewives: Ultimate Girls' Trip,' made news earlier this year when it was revealed she was dating Bill, who was referred to as "Bill Kent," which is thought to be an alias to keep their relationship as discreet as possible. According to the publication, the billionaire is the CEO of financial firm Seaport Capital and lives in a $1.9 million mansion on the New Jersey coastline.
According to the Daily Mail, Ramona and Bill just celebrated their one-year anniversary on Labor Day, and things appear to be going well between them. "Bill is completely smitten," a source told the publication. "She's much less erratic." Ramona has kept his name confidential since they began their year-long affair after meeting at a party on Labor Day weekend, vowing all her pals to secrecy."
"Bill was going through an expensive divorce and naturally wanted to keep their affair a secret," said the source. "Now he’s officially single, their love has grown even more, and there’s even been talk of marriage." He recently divorced his lawyer wife, Eileen O'Hern Luby, according to reports.
Reflecting on this news, fans took to Reddit to share their own thoughts on the relationship and especially the timeline. One wrote, "I think there’s already rumours he cheated on his wife with Ramona." Another user replied to the thread, "There are. And someone commented on another post that her friend had an affair with him in 1997. Which means he was only 4 years into a 30 year marriage and was already cheating. Disgusting."
In July, Ramona and Bill were pictured together at Eugenia Bullock's 25th birthday celebration, and again in August at Amy and Gary Green's Footprint of Life Gala in Bridgehampton. Ramona's ex-husband, Mario Singer, previously told the Daily Mail that her current relationship with Bill was "hot and heavy."
"I’m going to meet Ramona’s new boyfriend for dinner tonight, he’s called Bill," he added at New York's Shanghai at Hutong, where he and Ramona were celebrating the launch of their daughter Avery's new concierge firm, BachBoss.
