The Real Housewives of New York's Sonja Morgan might lose her $6 million home ... making her not much of a "housewife" at all.Morgan's bankruptcy struggle has been detailed in the current season of Bravo's show. She filed in November of last year, citing $19.8 million in debt and $13.5 million in assets. Morgan, 47, is currently in a court battle with her ex, John Adams Morgan, 80, over a $3 million divorce settlement.
She now might be forced out of her $6 million New York City townhouse, reports E! News.
Morgan said on the show that she lost money after a movie investment deal went bad. Adams Morgan, the great grandson of financier J.P. Morgan, claims he was already forced to pay more than was listed in his prenuptial agreement.
A source tells E!:
- " ... he's not giving her a cent more and she's now more than $7 million in the hole. She's in denial, it's only just started to hit her how much trouble she's in. She makes $275,000 a year on Housewives, which would be good for anyone else but it won't save her."
Sonja joins a growing list of "housewives" who have met financial struggle while on the show ... see who else after the jump.
As for other wives, New Jersey/em> housewife Teresa Giudice filed for bankruptcy in June 2010, citing $11 million in debt, while OC housewife Lynne Curtin faced eviction on the show for being behind on rent. Both women claimed their husbands hid financial problems from them.
Also on OC, Tamra Barney had to sell her home in a short sale, as did Alexis Bellino, and Peggy Tanous almost faced a foreclosure auction earlier this year. Jeana Kough, a former OC housewife, narrowly avoided foreclosure as well.
