The Hamptons social set has sided with Judith Giuliani in her ongoing divorce from gallivanting ex-New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani.
Spies said that Judith walked into new Hamptons hot spot Maison Vivienne one night last week, and “all heads turned,” a source said.
We hear that “several diners gave her encouraging words and various congratulations, including: ‘You are better off,’ and ‘He does not deserve you,’ ” presumably referring to her soon-to-be ex Rudy — who’s recently been linked to two different women.
When Maison Vivienne owner Allan Basaran — who was maitre d’ at Nello in Manhattan for 14 years — warmly greeted Judith and asked her if he should still call her “Mrs. Giuliani,” she was overheard telling him, “Yes, please. I worked hard for that name.”
Spies said that she arrived at the restaurant with a female friend and that they asked for a quiet table.
A Southampton regular told us, “She looked great in fitted beige pants and a pretty silk blouse.”
Page Six exclusively reported in April that Judith and Rudy were headed for divorce after 15 years of marriage.
She filed a contested divorce proceeding in Manhattan Supreme Court, indicating a fight over marital assets.
The divorce was a shock to their friends, and even Rudy’s pals have been confused keeping track of his subsequent love life.
He’s been linked to a hospital administrator, Maria Ryan (which he’s denied), as well as a GOP fundraiser, Jennifer LeBlanc.
But a pal told us last week Rudy was at a Yankees game with “his girlfriend — the one from Louisiana, not the one from New Hampshire.”
The link with Louisiana’s LeBlanc has caused controversy since Rudy, Donald Trump’s attorney, is reportedly touting an obscure House candidate in the state being backed by LeBlanc.
Away from the political intrigue, Basaran told us when we called for comment that he knew the Giulianis for years as Nello regulars.
He’s opened his Southampton eatery with Svitlana Flom.
A rep for Judith had no comment.
