"They decided to separate. She got wind he was seeing somebody and he didn't answer her when she called. He finally sent her an e-mail saying he was with an Ethiopian woman in Geneva and he was serious with her," a close friend of the couple says.
"Luann was blindsided. She was just devastated. They have basically lived apart for many years -- he lives in Europe and comes and goes as he pleases, but she never thought this would happen," the friend continues.
"It has been very rough for her and the children [Victoria and Noel], but she's taking the high road and will remain friends with him. She has no intention of making it bitter or becoming angry. She's just trying to come to terms with [the separation and impending divorce]. She feels this is the ultimate test for her to handle this with dignity and grace," the insider adds.
"It is obviously a very difficult time for the countess and count, but they plan to remain friends and their primary focus will be to do what is best for their two children," a rep for Luann tells PageSix.
The reality star is keeping her head high and reportedly told friends, "I will always be the countess."
All I could think of when I read this was when Bethaney said..."that was not very Countess like...that was Discountess."
...the best line ever on RHONY!
