Tilda Swinton is a certified Bravoholic.
The actress, 63, confirmed in a new interview that she is a fan of the “Real Housewives” franchise and is particularly fond of “New York City” alum Luann de Lesseps.
“Oh, yes, I’m a ‘Housewives’ fan,” she told E! News during the premiere of her movie “The Room Next Door” at the New York Film Festival on Oct. 4.
The star caught wind that de Lesseps, 59, was on the guest list and couldn’t contain her excitement.
“And Countess Luann is here, right?” she asked enthusiastically. “Has she arrived? I haven’t seen her yet. I think she’s coming to see the film!”
Page Six is told that the “Money Can’t Buy You Class” singer — who starred on “RHONY” for 13 consecutive seasons from 2008 until 2021 — arrived a bit late to the premiere and wasn’t able to pose on the red carpet with Swinton, but was eager to show her support nonetheless.
The Oscar winner’s sweet words for de Lesseps come months after she attended the latter’s cabaret show during the European leg of the entertainer’s “Marry, F, Kill!” tour.
“You never know who’s going to pop into your cabaret show 🤩🇬🇧❤️ #tildaswinton,” de Lesseps captioned a photo of the pair posing together after the live spectacle.
The “Class With the Countess” author shared more about her meetup with Swinton during an August interview with Scheana Shay on the “Scheananigans” podcast.
“When I was in London, I heard that Tilda Swinton was coming to my show, and she did come,” she said at the time.
“And she said to me, ‘Darling, you do spread so much joy but you know, you need to rest now, darling. You’re doing six shows in a row. I have a humble abode in Scotland,’” Luann continued in her best Tilda impression. “‘I would love for you to come for a visit. I’m going to cook for you and take care of you.’”
De Lesseps noted that she had “never been” to Scotland and gladly took Swinton up on her offer.
“Well, we get there, it’s a 300-acre property with a castle,” she said. “And she takes care of me.”
