Tinsley Mortimer 'struggling for popularity' after joining RHONY cast... with co-stars upset over 'lack of gratitude' to 'landlady' Sonja Morgan
Tinsley Mortimer hoped that by joining the cast of Bravo's Real Housewives Of New York she would be able to regain her position as one of New York's top socialites.
But, according to PageSix.com Sunday, her plan is already in trouble.
The gossip site claims that Tinsley, 41, has provoked the wrath of her reality TV co-stars by being ungracious to Sonja Morgan with whom she has been staying during filming.
Newbie: Tinsley Mortimer who replaced Jules Wainstein on the new season of Real Housewives Of New York, is not ingratiating herself with her co-stars, PageSix,.com reported Sunday
Tinsley replaced last season's newest cast member Jules Wainstein, who is in the midst of an acrimonious divorce.
She had hoped that her return to Manhattan society would put behind her the troubled relationship with billionaire heir ex-boyfriend Nico Fanjul legal troubles and her arrest for trespassing on his property in Palm Beach last year.
However, a source tells PageSix.com that she has failed to properly thank Sonja for giving her a place to stay.
'If you’re a socialite — never mind a ‘socialite,’ if you’re a human — if you’re a guest at someone’s home, you buy them a bottle of wine, or at least a card,' the insider revealed.

It seems that another castmember Ramona Singer confronted Tinsley about the omission.
Tinsley, who was previously married to oil heir Topper Mortimer, was one of the biggest names on the Manhattan society scene in the early and mid 2000s.
She started work straight out of university as an assistant at Vogue before joining a PR firm as an event planner.
Her name Mortimer was also frequently dropped on the TV show Gossip Girl, which detailed the lives of a group of wealthy private school kids in New York City. She later appeared in a cameo role on the show's second-season premiere.
In 2010, the same network that aired Gossip Girl, the CW, gave Mortimer her own reality series called High Society.
The show followed Mortimer as she posed for photo shoots, picked out clothes and hopped from party to party in the Big Apple.
