Kelly Bensimon thinks convicted scam artist Anna Delvey would make a fabulous “Housewife.”
“She would be amazing,” the former “Real Housewives of New York City” star said during a live broadcast of the podcast “Andy’s Girls with Sarah Galli” on Friday night. “She would be so nasty to everybody and they would be like, ‘How could you be nasty to me? I’m famous!’”
The former model, 53, also mentioned that she has friends who swear that Bensimon met the infamous fake heiress, but believes she never did meet her.
“I would’ve remembered meeting her,” she explained, “because if I had met her, she would have been really, really nasty to rich people…When a person’s really wealthy, the last thing a wealthy person would want to feel is that they don’t know what they’re talking about.”
“And that was her strategy with wealthy people to get power over them,” Bensimon continued. “I would’ve remembered that. I would have been like, ‘Ding!’”
Delvey, whose real name is Anna Sorokin was convicted in 2019 of one count of attempted grand larceny, three counts of grand larceny, and four counts of theft services for swindling friends and various businesses out of $275,000 during a 10-month spree.
She spent nearly four years behind bars before being released in 2021. She was arrested again for overstaying her visa and is fighting deportation back to Germany.
Her improbable story was the subject of a recent Netflix mini-series starring Julia Garner called “Inventing Anna.”
Bensimon appeared in seasons 2 through 4 of “The Real Housewives of New York City” which included an infamous breakdown while the cast was on a trip to the U.S. Virgin Islands.
