The saga of Real Housewives of New York City's Rey continues. Rey, whom you may recall made his drunken debut at Dorinda Medley and John Mahdessian's dry cleaning party and revealed his past with Luann de Lesseps, resurfaced in (in name only) on Watch What Happens Live thanks to his past with… Vicki Gunvalson?! Before you go there, like Luann did, you must hear Vicki's story.

"Luann and I got in a fight that night because she thought that I wanted him," The Real Housewives of Orange County star told Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live. "I'm like, ‘I don't want him, he's yours.' I just met him…I don't know who he is, but she's like, ‘Keep your hands off him'…he was all over me…who is he?"

And that same night Sonja Morgan was out with Shannon Beador and Dr. Paul Nassif. What a tangled web these Housewives weave.

"He was like, ‘I want your number, I think your beautiful,'" Vicki revealed. "'Luann, you can have him. I'm good.'"

Rey infamously showed up on The Real Housewives of New York City and confronted Luann at Dorinda and John's party. He stuck around to gossip with Sonja and Ramona Singer about his past with Luann and their trip to Ibiza. Luann downplayed the relationship and quickly exited the party after he tried to kiss her.

"In order to find my prince, I'm going to have to kiss some frogs. Running into Rey at John's party was unfortunate. His obsession with me is very scary, and I knew soon after meeting him it wasn't going to work," Luann wrote in her blog after the episode aired. "Why would I ever want to date someone who expresses his feelings with such desperate vulgarity? Obviously someone had too much to drink. Not attractive."

The topic of Rey came up once again at The Real Housewives of New York City reunion.

"People were obsessed with him," Bethenny Frankel said. "He should be a Housewife."

This is true.

The Real Housewives of Orange County airs Mondays, 9 p.m. on Bravo. Watch What Happens Live airs Sundays through Thursday at 11 p.m. on Bravo.
