Luann de Lesseps got busted while in Palm Beach, Florida.

Looks like someone may have spiked that eggnog too hard.

Luann de Lesseps, best known as one of the stars Real Housewives of New York City, was arrested in Palm Beach, Florida on multiple charges including disorderly intoxication and battery on an officer.

According to the Palm Beach Post, the 52-year-old was taken into police custody early Sunday morning. The report quotes an unnamed source who says that the reality TV star kicked an officer and said “I’m going to kill you all” before getting booked. She was subsequently released later on this morning without bond.

In a statement to BuzzFeed News, de Lesseps' agent, Michael Heller, had this to say:

"We are sure she will have her day in court and will be exonerated. She has always been a pleasure to work with and has always used her fame to help bring attention to different charity driven causes. She just finished a week long trip to the florida keys to help Red Cross with hurricane Irma. She didn't want to just donate to Red Cross she wanted to take action on her own and physically take her time to give back."

de Lesseps has been granted permission by a judge to travel back to the Big Apple and hire a defense attorney so that the charges she's facing, four of which are felonies, can be tackled appropriately in a court of law. There's no word on when the next court date is scheduled for.
