Jenna Lyons Reveals RHONY Cast Is DONE with Brynn Whitfield, Calls Her ‘Dangerous’
Jenna Lyons didn’t hold back on Watch What Happens Live, revealing the explosive fallout between the Real Housewives of New York cast and Brynn Whitfield—and it sounds like things are far from mended.
Following the explosive drama that erupted on the Puerto Rico girls’ trip between Brynn, 37, and Ubah Hassan, 41, the fallout continued to dominate discussions. Jenna shared insight into the aftermath, revealing that, despite the heated arguments, there’s been little to no contact between the cast and Brynn since filming the reunion.
When asked if Ubah had reached out to Brynn after their intense confrontation, Jenna didn’t mince words. “I think that’s a no and no,” she said with a laugh. The tension between the women escalated when Ubah accused Brynn of potentially trading sexual favors for career advancement, while Brynn hit back, accusing Ubah of insensitivity to her past sexual assault.
Jenna expressed doubts about Brynn’s intentions, especially after Brynn claimed Ubah didn’t know about her trauma. “I’ve chalked up her embellishments many times, but it’s one thing to embellish and another to hurt others,” Jenna said.
Jenna was struck by Brynn’s calmness during the chaos, which contrasted with the emotional turmoil of the group. “While everyone else was emotional, she was talking about horseback riding,” Jenna recalled. “She wasn’t realizing what was really happening.”
Reflecting on the fallout, Jenna realized Ubah had no knowledge of Brynn’s past. “I could see the emotion in her face, and I realized there’s no way she knew,” Jenna said. “I believed her in that moment.”
Regarding Jessel Taank, 45, Jenna believes the truth would’ve come out regardless of when Jessel told Ubah. “It was just a timing issue. We would’ve found out,” Jenna explained.
Jenna admitted that she and her castmates were frustrated and felt betrayed ahead of the reunion. “When someone’s stories turn into putting someone else in a dangerous position, that changes the game,” Jenna said, adding, “We were all feeling a little protective and scared,” likely a dig at Brynn’s accusations against Ubah.
When asked about Erin Lichy, 37, and whether she “throws rocks and hides her hands,” Jenna admitted that everyone, herself included, manipulates situations to get through tough moments.
“No one can really understand the dynamic when it’s happening. I’m just as guilty as anyone else,” she noted.
Jenna revealed that Jessel checked in on Ubah during the chaos, which led to the truth coming out. “Jessel went to take her food and check in on her,” Jenna explained.
