Well this is a bit of an unexpected crossover!
On Thursday night’s episode of Real Housewives of New York, a girls’ trip in Mexico turned to girl talk between Luann de Lesseps and Ramona Singer. The latter hinted at a romantic connection with an American Idol “winner” — and Luann happened to know a thing or two about that!

After Ramona showed her a photo of the guy in question on her phone, Luann remarked:
“We share a lot of people, don’t we? I went out with him. I know him well. Been there, done that, So has Tinsley [Mortimer]!”
Huh?!
The show censored the mysterious lothario’s name, so of course fans were clamoring to figure out to which Idol star the ladies were referring. And it didn’t take long for them to pinpoint the culprit!
Which singer scored with all three judges?? Constantine Maroulis!
It’s no secret that Tinsley used to date the Idol contestant-turned-Broadway star. It’s just something we, well, totally forgot about — until now. (Last we can recall, the Rock of Ages star was embroiled in a nasty domestic violence drama, so it’s probably to his benefit that we forgot all about him tbh…)
As it turns out, he’s been orbiting the Housewives universe for some time. Not only did he appear in Mortimer’s short-lived reality show High Society, he also showed up at Bethenny Frankel’s Skinnygirl Cocktails Launch Party, and has taken part in Luann’s “Countess and Friends” cabaret show.
Of course, Maroulis didn’t win his season (the 4th) of American Idol. That honor went to a little known country singer named Carrie Underwood. (Perhaps you’ve heard of her?) However, his rep did confirm to Us Weekly that he was indeed the man who Ramona and Luann were discussing. They shared:
“The ladies certainly were discussing Constantine on RHONY last night. They were probably listening to his new album … Constantine Maroulis’ relationship with Tinsley was well documented several years ago. Constantine performed with Luann as part of her holiday tour last year and has enjoyed a friendship with Ramona as well. Constantine has great love and respect for them, considers each of them dear friends.”
The singer was also good natured about the reveal on Twitter, retweeting a hilarious meme about his relationship with all three ladies:

So there you have it. Personally, we didn’t have Constantine Maroulis making a resurgence on our 2020 bingo sheet, but at this point a curveball like this doesn’t even phase us. LOLz!
