Her husbands infidelity was exposed last month.

And Jules Wainstein was clearly still uncomfortable talking about it on Wednesday's Watch What Happens Live.

The Real Housewives Of New York star seemed to struggle to answer Andy Cohen's questions about her recent split from husband of  eight years Michael Wainstein.

Uncomfortable Jules Wainstein struggled to answer questions about the divorce she never saw coming on Wednesday's Watch What Happens Live

She very measuredly confirmed to the host that she and the 44-year-old are still currently living together, adding 'I can confirm we are getting divorced'.

When Andy probed further and asked if she knew her husband's mistress, she clammed up and looked to her friend and co-guest Dorinda Medley, who answered for her: 'I can say that's true'.

Cohen pressed further and asked if she ever suspected anything, and Dorinda came to her rescue once again, insisting the close friends had 'many late night conversations' - but that topic never came up.

Andy suggested the reason for the question was because their castmate Bethenny Frankel had previously suggested on the show that Jules knew she was getting divorced before the season started.

'Because of a mutual friend?' Jules scoffed in reply. 'We have no mutual friends'.

'She knows everything,' Dorinda chimed in. 'I think she can hear dead people.'

Trailers for the RHONY finale show Frankel about to tell Luann de Lesseps she has similar intel on her husband-to-be fiance Tom D'Agostino, and during the show Andy asked the girls if they would want to know in that circumstance.

'What are we, chopped liver? Jules seemed to find her sense of humour later in the interview when she revealed she wanted to know why Luann's wandering fiance didn't try to hook up with either of them.

'I think we all get sensitive information and you have to choose carefully who you choose to give it to,' Dorinda mused. 

When the same inquiry was put to a pained looking Jules, she replied 'bad question for me,' before finally conceding with a downcast: 'yes'. 

Last month Michael - who has accused and been accused of physical violence with his estranged wife - was pictured holding hands with 36-year-old Elyse Bensusan.

When asked how her relationship was with Bethenny, she said it was 'water under the bridge. I don't really care. I don't need any more negative energy in my life'.

When asked the same of Carole, she replied 'irrelevant'.
