‘Housewives’ star Sonja Morgan breaks her silence after wild night out in Palm Beach
Is Sonja Morgan OK?
TMZ posted alarming pictures of the “Real Housewives of NYC” star being loaded onto an ambulance in Palm Beach, Thursday night.
The reality vet, 61, had been dining at Echo restaurant on Sunrise Avenue when things apparently went south.
In footage also sent to the gossip site, Morgan, who moved to the area last year, is seen talking to police officers who had responded to the scene.
After the pics of her went viral, Morgan released a statement to People.
“An elderly patron at the restaurant I was dining at appeared to be in distress, and I called for medical assistance,” the TV personality told the mag. “While assisting [her] during the commotion, I sustained some minor injuries and, out of an abundance of caution, accompanied the EMTs to be checked out.”
While the native New Yorker claims to be just a Good Samaritan, she also managed to get into a little trouble with the cops.
Authorities told TMZ that Morgan was ordered to leave the premises and issued “a written trespass warning.” Under Florida law, had the Bravolebrity reentered the establishment, she could have been arrested.
The incident comes on the heels of an embarrassing encounter earlier this month at a different restaurant — NYC hotspot Tucci. Page Six reports that Morgan reportedly demanded to be comped for a $1,000 meal.
“She was absolutely hysterical and refused to pay,” a source claimed to the outlet. “It was like she was filming a ‘Housewives’ episode, shouting, ‘I’m a celebrity!’”
Morgan owned up and eventually paid, telling Page Six “there was a clear miscommunication,” adding, “I believed I was dining in exchange for a promotional post. … I made that known to staff.”
On Instagram, the fan favorite brushed up off the headlines and adjusted her crown. The latest post sees her looking fantastic and fresh from a beauty salon appointment.
The caption: “That feeling when your hair is done and you remember who you are.”
