Andy Cohen 'Gobsmacked' by Carole Radziwill's NY Post Cover Story on Parking Violations

Andy Cohen expressed his astonishment after "The Real Housewives of New York City" alum Carole Radziwill was featured on the cover of The New York Post for accumulating significant parking fines.

Cohen shared his reaction via Instagram Stories, holding up a copy of the newspaper. "I had to go to Casa Magazines to see if it’s real. It’s real. I can’t believe it!" he exclaimed. The cover story highlighted Radziwill's admitted parking infractions, including using traffic cones to reserve spots and displaying an expired FDNY placard, which resulted in approximately $8,000 in tickets.

The Post reported that Radziwill accrued 83 traffic violations over the past four years, with 17 specifically for failing to move her car for street sweeping. She also admitted on "RHONY" to using Con Edison traffic cones as a "hack" to prevent others from taking parking spots.

"Of everything happening in the world, Radzi’s parking is the most important thing in New York City," Cohen quipped, referencing the headline "Park Raving Mad ‘Real Housewife’ admits she’s biggest parking menace in NYC — face cones, expired placards, $8,000 tickets." He playfully referred to Radziwill as a "menace to the city" while acknowledging her glamorous appearance on the cover.

Radziwill, 63, responded to Cohen's post, calling the situation "fever dream" of being on the cover "nuts." She shared her excitement on Instagram, expressing her love for traffic cops, her city, and the New York Post. She also clarified that she has paid all her tickets and "stand[s] with the Dept. of Sanitation."

The New York Post article also detailed Radziwill's use of an expired FDNY union placard, which is meant for firefighters. The placard, reportedly belonging to a former president of the FDNY’s Uniformed Fire Officers Association, had expired in February. It remains unclear how Radziwill obtained the cones or the placard.
