"The Real Housewives of New York" star announced on Twitter that she's divorcing the New York City businessman.
"It's with great sadness that Tom & I agreed to divorce," she wrote. "We care for each other very much, hope you respect our privacy during this sad time!"
De Lesseps, 52, and D’Agostino, 50, let reality show viewers watch their intimate New Year's Eve nuptials in Palm Beach, Florida, earlier this year.
Throughout the hit Bravo series, fellow housewives, including Bethenny Frankel and Ramona Singer, warned De Lesseps about marrying D’Agostino, citing infidelity rumors.
