Will the Countess and Count be friends or foes? LuAnn de Lesseps is opening up about her recent split from husband Count Alexandre de Lesseps.

When asked how she's handling the split, de Lesseps responded, "Meditation... I recently started meditating so I could be more centered and it's really helped me. I just close myself up in my room for a half an hour and go inside." She continued, "It's hard to come out because it feels really good to be peaceful... I do yoga. That really helps me."

De Lesseps says she has received loads of support. She says, "People have been so wonderful. Calling me and reaching out to me and I'm okay. It's a really difficult time for us as a family."

As for her children, de Lesseps comments, "The kids are doing okay. I told them not to look at blogs... That part has been difficult."

"Class with the Countess: How to Live with Elegance and Flair" will be in stores April 16.

Does this mean Bethanny doesn’t have to continue to introduce her as the Countess?

It was bound to happen… when you treat others like they are beneath you, the man that fell in love with you begins to see the ugly person that you have become and he can’t stand to be around it… He has always stayed out of town and now your behavior is documented and he sees it… I hope that this changes you.. I hope that you concentrate on your beautiful children and spend all of your time with them, instead of your housekeeper !!!! Be a wonderful mom and others will see the good in you… stop acting like you know it all and that you are better than others… your title was by marriage and it doesn’t mean a thing.. you should have used it for good instead of letting it go to your head… Good Luck… with all the horrible things happening in the world, you need to get off your high horse and do something wonderful for others… and I don’t mean having a party to raise money…. go to the hospital and volunteer for our wounded military …. or go feed the homeless…….
