Sonja Morgan’s ‘RHONY’ Co-Stars Fear Her Drinking Is Out Of Control

Sonja Morgan was called out by her co-stars during this week’s Real Housewives Of New York City episode after a night of partying turned violent. During a cast trip to Salem, Massachusetts, the women were enjoying a dinner when Morgan and Bershan Shaw, who appears on the show as a friend of Ramona Singer’s, became engaged in an altercation. Shaw riled up the group by calling them boring and referring to them as “grandmas,” and later calling Morgan a clown, which didn’t sit well with the whole group. But Sonja, who has been depicted on the show as getting drunker than everyone else when they go out, later lashed out as their argument escalated, and ended up breaking a glass fire extinguisher case.

Morgan was confronted in this week’s episode by her co-stars, with Leah McSweeney, who is also newly sober, saying, “I think that it would be absolutely irresponsible and f**ked up of us to not say we think the drinking is going to hurt you. We are worried and we want to help.”

Morgan denied being alcoholic, telling her friends “I don’t drink alone, I don’t drink at home, I don’t drink on dates. I don’t go out and socialize like that, I just don’t.”

While Morgan and her co-stars addressed the issue on this week’s episode, this storyline doesn’t stop there. In the preview for next week’s episode, Ramona Singer reveals to Luann de Lesseps that her brother was killed in a car accident, and she suspects it was caused by him driving under the influence. Singer says she is terrified that Sonja will meet a similar fate. “I feel Sonja, sometimes she goes too far with the drinking and I feel helpless just like I did with my brother.”

De Lesseps, who herself has struggled with sobriety and has been arrested for disorderly intoxication, concurs that Morgan’s behavior could even lead to legal trouble. Will Sonja address and admit to her problems? If her Instagram is any indicator, it seems like she has not as of yet.
