Luann de Lesseps is dishing all about her swanky sleepover at actress Tilda Swinton‘s Scottish castle.
The Real Housewives of New York alum, 59, detailed her stay at the actress’ “humble abode” after Swinton, 63, attended one of de Lesseps’ Marry, F, Kill cabaret shows in June.
“She came to my show at the Coco Club. It’s a pretty swanky club in London,” de Lesseps exclusively told Us Weekly, adding that she heard Swinton was coming but didn’t know if she would attend for sure. Much to de Lesseps’ delight, the Snowpiercer star showed up.
Noting that Swinton chatted with her at the afterparty, de Lesseps recalled being blown away by her unexpected invite to her home.
“She came to me and she said, ‘Oh, my darling, you spread so much joy, I love to watch you perform, but you must be exhausted after six shows in a row,'” she said. “‘And you know, I would love for you to come and have a visit. I’d like to take care of you and cook for you and welcome you to my humble abode.'”
The Bravo personality told Us that their assistants exchanged information, and the group set their plan in motion. Shortly after, she and Swinton met at a train station, and they were on their way to Scotland, where de Lesseps’ fellow RHONY alum, Dorinda Medley, was coincidentally filming season 3 of The Traitors.
“She’s the most eccentric person I’ve met,” de Lesseps said of Swinton. “[I have] a lot of eccentric people in my life, you know, living in Europe for so long, but [she’s] the most eccentric woman I’ve ever met. The family actually dates back to 800. And the humble abode is a castle on 300 acres.”
The reality star said her stay at the Scottish castle included Swinton cooking for her and carrying her bags while showing her to her room, even inviting one of her dogs to stay with her for the night.
“She’s got four, like, Irish Setters,” she continued. “The dog follows [us] up there, and [Tilda] says, ‘Louie, Louie! Jump into bed with the Countess. You’re gonna keep her company tonight.’ Excuse me – a dog to sleep! The next day, she made us a whole presentation of haggis, which is their local dish that they like to eat, and [explained the dish] in great detail and with great pride, and she made dessert. It was wonderful.”
After their slumber party, de Lesseps said the pair became tight pals, and Swinton invited her to the New York City premiere of her new film, The Room Next Door, earlier this month. At the event, Swinton enthusiastically asked if de Lesseps had arrived yet.
“I just missed the carpet, but I didn’t miss her,” de Lesseps told Us, noting that she had hung out with Swinton at the afterparty, adding, “The movie was just amazing.”
The Room Next Door is set to hit select theaters on December 20, followed by a wider release in 2025.
