She may be a New Yorker, but Luann de Lesseps is also a total bikini babe.

The Bravo star, 55, showed off her fabulous and age-defying body while taking in the ocean view from on board a boat.  

Luann posted a snap of her bikini adventures onto Instagram, where she gazed towards the ocean blue while running a hand through her windswept hair.

Luann flashed a seductive and mischievous smile, all while rocking a strappy black bikini that put her toned figure on full display. 

‘#HappyFriday! Who’s ready for the weekend?’ Luann captioned the snap, along with the hashtags, ‘#luanndelesseps #fridayvibes #rhony #summervibes.’

Within minutes, the post received numerous ‘likes’ and compliments from adoring fans, including fellow Real Housewife, Lisa Rinna. 

Lisa did not shy away from expressing just how hot she thought Luann looked.

‘BODY!!!!!’ Lisa commented, along with several flame emojis. 

Luann replied with a double hearted emoji.

Based on the smile on her face, Luann definitely seemed to be having the time of her life, despite the unusual current circumstances. 

The Real Housewives Of New York star has been in self-isolation in the Hamptons, where she has been relaxing at her home and eating out with friends.

The peaceful, laid-back snaps she has been posting of her time in quarantine are definitely a far cry from the drama she has been involved in on her reality series, The Real Housewives Of New York.

On the last episode of the show,  Luann called Sonja Morgan ‘worthless’ and kicked her out of her cabaret show.

During a cast trip to Dorinda Medley’s Berkshires home, Luann drank wine and squabbled with Sonja, 56, over what she paid her to be in the show, entitled F***, Marry, Kill.

Sonja cracked that Luann was exploiting her by paying her just $225 per show, and Luann saw red, sniping, ‘Exploit you? I don’t need you. Go f*** yourself.’

‘You gave me $225? That doesn’t even cover my hair and makeup!’ Sonja shouted as she insisted Luann wasn’t valuing her time.

Luann was over it.

‘You have made me feel that you don’t appreciate it,’ she pointed out. ‘And guess what? I don’t want you in the show.’ 

The Real Housewives Of New York City will return next week on Bravo.
