Sonja Morgan has been a full-time cast member on The Real Housewives Of New York City since season 3. During her time on the, she has talked about her love life, toaster ovens, and her friendship with Ramona Singer. She's earned famed for having no filter and enjoying going to parties, so it makes sense that fans still remember many of the reality star's most iconic quotes.
From the memorable moment when she broke her tooth to discussing her interns, Sonja has made many statements that have become part of RHONY history. Fans always want to know what she will comment on next.
"I broke a tooth. I have veterinarians that will do it."
In a season 7 scene, Sonja was having fun while out on the town, and after trying to take a man's shirt off, she realized that she actually broke a tooth. She seemed surprised, but moved on fast, saying that she could get it fixed.
This is one of Sonja's most hilarious quotes as she referred to dentists as "veterinarians," which is still confusing all of these years later. Fans have seen Sonja lose a few teeth during her time on RHONY. On one such occassion, she said, "Next thing I know ... tooth was flying outta my face."
“OK, so I had a walk of shame. I admit it, I live for the walk of shame. Actually, I call it a victory lap at my age!”
In season 6, Kristen went to Sonja's so they could enjoy some facials, and Kristen was surprised when Sonja wasn't actually home. Sonja eventually came home and said that she had a one-night stand.
Sonja's joke about a "victory lap" diffused the tense situation and was also one of her best quotes, as she always has a unique way of explaining a situation. RHONY has dramatic plotlines, but the show can also be funny, and Sonja can be counted on for having a great sense of humor.
"A squirrel came in my room last night. I almost made out with him."
The cast of RHONY went to Montana in season 6. It was a unique trip that was more rustic than typical Real Housewives vacations, and the cast went repelling, fly fishing, and on a cattle drive. Sonja said this strange quote during the trip, surprising her co-stars and fans.
If fans had to guess about which RHONY cast member was most likely to say something this bizarre, most would probably guess Sonja. She doesn't have a filter, and sometimes her statements don't make much sense.
"She did go to school in France. You don’t get there by boat normally."
In season 5, the cast went to St. Barth's, and Aviva let everyone know about her fear of flying. She did come on the trip, and her entrance was super dramatic. As one of the most famous former RHONY cast members, Aviva is perhaps best known for this storyline (and also that time she threw her prosthetic leg).
While Sonja's comment was blunt and a little mean, it's understandable that the cast was confused about Aviva's alleged fear of flying, as she did seem to live a luxurious life that included plenty of travel.
"I feel abandoned all over again, my daughter's just gone off to college, and now I don't have Bethenny. It's a lot."
Bethenny left The Real Housewives Of New York City after season 11, and when the reality show came back for season 12, Sonja shared her feelings about her former co-star.
This stands out as one of Sonja's most powerful and memorable quotes. While her daughter didn't film the show, Sonja brought her up many times. It was clear that she was feeling sad and vulnerable about all of the changes in her life. It might have been dramatic saying that Bethenny left her, but fans can see that Sonja felt a bit rejected.
"I don't stir the pot. I stir the drink."
If someone joins the Real Housewives franchise, it's likely that they have a personality that sparkles and captivates others. They need to be able to become part of the friend group right away, and they need some unique character traits too. Immediately, Sonja made a big impression on fans, and this quote stands as a good reason why.
It seemed like Sonja was saying that she didn't want to start any drama, but she did want to have a good time. On the other fans, her co-stars and fans may be quick to point out that Sonja has started arguments on RHONY plenty of times.
"Leopard is my neutral."
Incredible fashion is a fact of life on this Bravo franchise. The women of RHONY tend to wear more clothing that is appropriate for cold weather thanks to the East Coast climate that they live in, but that doesn't mean that they can't have some fun with their styles.
Fans have seen Sonja wear a lot of leopard print on the show, from shirts to dresses, and she shared her unique fashion point of view here. This was a funny quote because of how explicitly she stated her strong feelings about the print, not that she needed to for fans to have gotten the message.
"My interns don't charge me; my attorneys do. My interns listen to me sometimes, but my attorneys never do. So it's a win/win."
Fans of RHONY definitely remember Sonja's interns, as they were once a staple. Sonja was often shown talking to them and explaining the kind of lifestyle that she lives.
While some Real Housewives cast members have found business success, Sonja is known for discussing business ideas, including having her own brand of toaster oven. Viewers don't always know what happens to these concepts. It was never really clear why Sonja needed so many interns, so this quote stands out.
"The only thing worse than stale brioche at a party is stale guests."
The Real Housewives franchise is full of fancy parties that feature fancy guests in fancy clothing, eating fancy food and drinking fancy cocktails. And, of course, they always bring some drama to round out the evening.
This quote of Sonja's comes from season 5, and it was a funny way of explaining that people should come to a party ready to have fun, chat, and mingle. The reality star managed to get her point across in a totally unique way.
"What are you doing here without Dorinda?"
Dorinda's relationship with John may be over, but when they were together, he would often show up at parties or other events. Fans will always remember Sonja's blunt question for Dorinda's boyfriend.
Most people probably wouldn't have asked John such a direct question, opting instead for a polite hello and how-do-you-do. But Sonja is known for saying what's on her mind. From her perspective, it would have made more sense for John and Dorinda to arrive together, or for her co-star to get there first.
