Real Housewives of New York City personality Sonja Morgan was seen getting in an ambulance in Florida on Thursday.

The 61-year-old blonde star from Albany, New York, looked distressed as she laid back on a gurney with straps over her legs and her purse on her lap.

She was outside Echo in Palm Beach at around 10pm after police were called as a woman needed help. 

Morgan has told DailyMail.com what happened.

‘I was helping a lady who fell,’ she shared with DailyMail.com. ‘I am doing great, thanks.’

According to information obtained by TMZ from the Palm Beach Police Department, Sonja Morgan was reportedly issued a ‘trespass warning.’ Despite being presented with the warning, Sonja allegedly declined to sign it, as detailed in the documents reviewed by TMZ.

This comes after she had a problem at a NYC restaurant.

She revealed her side of an ugly incident at red-hot New York restaurant Tucci on Saturday night.

The reality TV star was accused of refusing to pay her $1,000 tab after dining with several friends.

A source told Page Six that she threw around attitude saying she deserved a free meal because she is famous and got ‘hysterical’ and claimed she was now banned from the dining spot.

But the Bravo star painted a different picture about what went down to the Daily Mail.

Morgan claimed she was invited to eat at Tucci’s for free in exchange for posting about the venue to her 1.2 million Instagram followers.

Morgan said she’d done similar ‘several times in the past’ without encountering a problem from the restaurant. 

The drama over Morgan’s $1,000 check is certainly going to add further buzz to Tucci.  

The deal was made with the owner of the hot spot, Max Tucci, through phone and text, she explained. 

She also said the entire staff knew her meal was supposed to be a freebee, so it was a matter of ‘miscommunication.’

And she never acted ‘hysterical,’ she said.  

‘There was a clear miscommunication. I believed I was dining in exchange for a promotional post, as discussed with Max,’ she told Daily Mail on Tuesday.

‘I made that known to staff, and when it seemed we weren’t aligned, I offered relentlessly to reimburse him but didn’t hear back.’

Morgan paid the entire bill on Monday and added a generous tip, Daily Mail has told. 

However, Tucci still seemed peeved about what happened, despite receiving full payment. 

Max Tucci is one of New York’s more prominent restauranteurs. 

He is the grandson of Oscar Tucci, who bought the New York institution Delmonico’s in 1926. The restaurant first opened in 1827.  

Tucci has been frequented by celebrities since first opening in the NOHO neighborhood in March, 2024. 

Tucci told PageSix it wasn’t right for it was not right of Morgan to ask for a free meal as food costs are so high.

He added the blonde beauty was ‘just taking advantage’ of the glamorous watering hole that has become an ‘it spot’ to dine. 

‘There was no arrangement for her to have a comped dinner. She just wanted free food and service,’ he argued.

Morgan last appeared on Real Housewives of New York City during season 13 in 2021. 

Days later Max sent DailyMail.com a statement.

‘In light of the overwhelming media inquiries surrounding the recent incident involving Sonja at TUCCI, I feel it’s important to set the record straight,’ his note began.

‘There was no agreement for a complimentary dinner. Any assumption to the contrary reflects a lapse in judgment, consistent with prior unacceptable behavior. At TUCCI, we stand firmly with our staff, and with the hospitality industry at large, where respect and fair compensation for outstanding service are fundamental.

‘The restaurant industry operates under significant pressure — from rising food and labor costs to high rents. It is unreasonable and unacceptable for guests to assume otherwise. We remain committed to honoring the hard work of our team and will not tolerate entitlement or disrespect.

‘Respect our team and our other guests, and we will always respect you. Sonja is no longer welcome at TUCCI. In making this decision, I’ve had to break one of my grandfather Oscar Tucci’s cardinal rules: “Welcome everyone to our table.”’
