Jessel Taank revealed where she stands with Sai De Silva after the Real Housewives of New York City stars feuded continuously throughout their freshman season. The mother-of-two also shared her thoughts on Ubah Hassan’s mystery man – who was recently identified as Oliver Dachsel.

In multiple episodes, Sai called out Jessel over issues that didn’t make sense to many fans. At the beginning of the season, however, Jessel seemed to complain about several things during a cast trip, which bothered her costars.

Speaking with Us Weekly, Jessel shared where she and Sai now stand.

“Sai and I are on good terms,” said Jessel, who explained that watching the episodes back gave her the “opportunity to reflect” upon her own actions. “I know I said a number of things that I’m like, ‘Oh, God, cringe, so awful.’ And I’m sure that as we’re all watching ourselves on TV, you’re like, ‘Oh, gosh.’ It’s just more of a revelation on how you’re reflected and how people see you.”

After the 43-year-old was asked whether Sai might be open to a deeper connection, Jessel claimed she doesn’t know. “And quite frankly, I don’t care,” the star continued. “It’s one of those things where I’ll always put my best foot forward. There’s only so much you can do, and truly I am who I am — and I said that to her. I was like, ‘If we are not aligned or if we’re not the same personality or if we’re just not connecting, it’s OK.’ You don’t have to love everyone that’s in your world.”

Regarding Ubah’s formerly secret relationship with Oliver –  an investment banker also known as ‘Mr. Connecticut’ – Jessel shared that she “100 percent” understands the reason her costar wished to keep it under the radar at that point, since they had just begun dating.

Jessel also opened up about meeting him.

“I’m obsessed with him,” she said. “He’s so gorgeous and he’s obviously very obsessed with her. They’re so happy, and I’m so happy for her.”
