Woman linked to Count de Lesseps is an Ethiopian Royalty
The mysterious Ethiopian woman identified as the cause for the divorce between the reality star LuAnn from The Real Houswives of New York and her husband Count Alexandre de Lesseps has been identified as Princess Kemeria Abajobir Abajifar. She is the granddaughter of King Abajifar, the last King from the Gibe Kingdom of Jimmaa, located in current day Ethiopia.
An inside source close to the Count, wishing to remain anonymous, confirmed the details in an email correspondence.
The Ethiopian princess, and granddaughter of the King, is the niece of Ababiya Abajobir, another prominent man in the Oromo-Ethiopian community. He was one of the founding members of the OLF (Oromo Liberation Front), a guerrilla organization representing the majority Oromo ethnic group of Ethiopia, and served in various positions in the organization throughout its 35 year history.
The source told EthioPlanet that it was the wish of both the Princess and Count Alexandre de Lesseps that she no longer be identified as “‘the Ethiopian woman’ but with her real identity.”
The Princess, of course, is not the only royalty in this match up. Count de Lesseps, as evident from his royal rank, was born into a French aristocracy. His great-great-great grandfather, Ferdinand de Lesseps, who built the Suez Canal and started the Panama Canal, was also present during the presentation of the Statue of Liberty to the United States.
It is, perhaps, of great irony that Countess LuAnn de Lesseps who, on the show, easily assumed the role of royalty in a most pompous way, has now been replaced by a real royalty.

Well, I’ll be damned…It had to be an “Oromo princess”.
OMG! What nonsense!
I’m still trying to figure out how low this royal families morals are that their daughter settles for being “the other woman”… tsk tsk… (shaking head)
Kemeria Abajobir Abajifar??? loool
there is no one by that name from our country.
you are funny Ethioplanet !!! that was a nice April fools joke. hope nobody takes you seriously
[Editor's response: It is a confirmed and verified fact. As for your doubt in the veracity of such a name, please refer to Ethiopian history (specifically the Kingdom of Jimmaa), common Oromo names from that region and the name of a founding member of the OLF, Ababiya Abajobir Abajifar, the uncle of the young lady in question]
She is trash is what she is, going after another woman’s man, plus she is OLF the scums of Ethiopia. Them and the government should kill each other and leave our country alone.
I agree..Who does this woman think she is? How does she dare to break a couple’s marriage and then clarify who she is. She has no dignity. She’s an adultress!!!!
I think it’s TIME for woman to STOP being caty! This woman did not twist the count arm. He should share the DAM blame, for his own marriage as well!!! There, had to be trouble in the Count and Luann’s marriage. Luann just turned a blinded eye, as we all saw on the show. He was NEVER really around, so what does that tell you about their relationship. I guess ONCE you go BLK you never go back. LOL! Sad to say, but kinda true.
Who knows if the marriage wasn’t already broken. This relationship that the count now has with the Ethiopian was probably just a reason for the count to “officially” end the marriage with LuAnn. We do not know what is REALLY going on so it’s not fair to judge any of them. They’re marriage was probably already very shaky, and the ex-countess probably didn’t want to be the one who officially ended the marriage, just to keep her “countess” title. All the Ethiopian woman did is put to rest an ailing problem.
I think this women should be the one who lives in Geneva and divorced with two kids born of a Congolese man. Her sister has a shop at the Kepinsky Hotel of Geneva.
why isnt their any pictures of her? i cant find any, if shes real lets see a picture of her!! if you dont show a picture of her then this news is obviously fake!
i am very ashamed of some people who don’t know who they are and insult dignified and royal ppl of the so called ethiopia.such as hailesilasse I,Iyyasu, abbajifar ,rasmokonen and most of the royal families of ethiopia to whom they are from great nation of oromo.
ETHIOPIAN ROYALTY IS DEAD!! WE ARE TALKING ABOUT A ROYALTY BEFORE B.C!! DONT EVEN SAY SHE IS ROYALTY BECAUSE SHE WORE A CAPE WHILE STANDING IN A WINDOW IN AMSTERDAM IN THE RED LIGHT DISTRICT!!! SHE IS A DISGRACE TO ALL OROMOS! SHE IS A SHAMUTA!!! ALL SHE WANTS IS KULA!! SHE HANDLED THAT OLD KULA VERY NICE!!!
Hello he must have been ready to leave!!!! I am sure the sex is way better…
Kemeria you did wrong . Don’t breake warm house for 16 years,you are a beautiful ethiopian and muslim women better find your own muslim man for yr happy life.
They are all three terrible examples for the children.
What shes going to adopt babies to cover up the things she do like that nasty evil homewrecker whore angelina jolie and people will act like it she ddn’t steal brad pitt from his wife of 8 years and began sleeping with him just 2 weeks after beginging to do that movie with him?…Okay I don’t know the deal with this one so if she got with him after and had nothing to do with then divorce then whatever but if she was with him while he was married and took him from his wife them shame on her. Marrigae is a special bond and I pledge between a man and a woman in front of God to be man and wife forever
I read most you yall comments and I think some of them don’t make sense. You can not steal a man or a woman and if you do its called kidnapping. These are human beings not purses or money. He knows how to say no and when he was in the church saying his vows he understood what they meant and what he was pleadging. If he loved his wife so much then this other woman wouldn’t be a problem. There would be no headline story. Everyone needs to just realize he was unhappy and instead of him being a man about it and just leaving her, he just waited till he found someone. This woman is not to blame and neither is angeline jolie. Get a Life!!
RE: LuAnn
Maybe LuAnn changed after signing onto the show and became an embarassment to her husband?
http://www.nypost.com/seven/08262008/gossip/pagesix/real_good_time_at_wedding_126080.htm
The article at the site above appeared in the New York Post on August 26, 2008 describes how, at a wedding in the Hamptons, she grabbed the mike, sang songs and knocked over a drum set and then started groping crotches.
According to the article:
” Then, LuAnn, who was there with her husband, Alexandre Count de Lessups, seemed overwhelmed with affection for her fellow guests. “She was trying to make out with women and married men,” the source said. “A pregnant wife caught her in the act, stormed off and walked home in disgust.”
Alexandre “tried to make her leave and was seen throwing her to the ground in the parking lot,” our spy continued. ”
Maybe the Count just finally got tired of hearing other Royals tell him that he should dump her? Surely,some may have watched the show as well and gossiped about LuAnn’s disgraceful, inappropriate and quite un-Royal antics. Maybe one of his friends introduced him to the Ethiopian Princess to cheer him up? Google and see what comes up.
Oh, she wishes to no longer be referred to as “that Ethiopian woman” huh? It could be a lot worse, considering that she broke up a marriage!
I know there is no longer a “Royal” blood line with titles in Ethiopia any longer; just ask Emmn; or she would be called “Princess Emmn”. Therefore, this home wrecker who the Count is _ucking, is just a paid for whore from the poorest country in the world. If he is with a princess from Ethiopia, he should be ashamned of himself, as the other poor women who go to bed a nite knowing they were unable to feed their child that day because they are so poor, and he is wineing and dinning this shitska who would not help out her fellow countrymen/women…shame on them, shame on Ethiopian Royalty…who do not take care of their country’s poorest people…children starving, people with HIV and no medicine – shame on them!!
I just finish reading every ones’ comment.Can any of you tell me why we are always hard on the woman? This man who seems to appear intelligent decided, wanted to dump his wife and children and go with the other lady .He choose in his free will, he is the one with the baggage children and all why is this woman blamed for this divorce? Please every one take a deep breath and think make the count and the countess responsible. They should have focus on what was more important to the 2 of them and their family as a couple without the title and the fame. The other woman was minding her on life when they met . He choose her.Mr. Lessep je vous souhaite une vie heureuse avec la nouvelle princesse mais occupez-vous tres bien de vos enfants.
SORRY I WANT TO SAY A FEW THINK FOR THE COUNTESS LESSEP.COUNTESS PLEASE GO ON WITH YOUR LIFE . YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL CLASSY VERY INTELLIGENT YOUNG WOMAN WITH BRIGHT FUTURE AND A LOT TO OFFER. IT IS HIS LOOS MOSTLY. HE WILL NOT SEE HIS KID GROWTH AND CHANGE EVERYDAY LIKE YOU DO & SEE THEM IN THE MORNING ECT… PLEASE YOU ARE VERY SMART DON’T GO TO THESE DIFFERENT GOSSIP SHOW AND MAKE YOURSELF ORDINARY YOU ARE AN EXTRAORDINARY LADY KEEP IT THAT WAY. I LIKED YOU AND I AM ETHIOPIAN.
