Jenna Lyons addressed her drama with Erin Lichy and Sai De Silva on Watch What Happens Live on Tuesday night, following the premiere episode of The Real Housewives of New York City season 15.
After it was alleged that Erin, 37, had called her “poor” behind her back and that Sai, 43, had been telling people she “hates” her, Jenna, 56, reacted to the speculation surrounding Brynn Whitfield‘s finances, looked ahead to the reunion, dished on her co-stars, and hinted that she and Cass Bird are already married.
On the October 1 episode of WWHL, after being asked if she felt in her heart of hearts that Erin had called her “poor,” Jenna seemed unsure, saying, “Yes. I mean, maybe not.”
“But I don’t care,” she clarified.
Because it was Jeff Lewis, 54, who suggested Brynn, 37, was being helped financially, many felt that Brynn was placing too much blame on Erin. And, when it came to Jenna, she felt there was more to the situation.
“The real issue to me was not that which was said but that she didn’t apologize in the right moment, meaning, she didn’t say, ‘Listen, I can understand that that would’ve felt bad for you and I’m sorry about that. I shouldn’t have done that. I should’ve kept my mouth shut.’ But she never said that and I think that was the bigger issue,” she noted.
Then, after confirming she did not pay Erin back for the Uber they took in the Hamptons, asking, “Why?,” Jenna said she felt that Sai changed drastically from season 14 to season 15.
“Literally like a 180. She’s nice to me,” Jenna explained. “She put her arm around me and kind of squeezed. I was like, ‘Girl, get in there.’”
Following their season 14 drama, Sai denied saying that she “hated” Jenna. And, while Jenna is not so sure if she ever did, she revealed they are in a much better place today.
“I didn’t believe her. I think she was talking semantics. She was arguing over the words that she said. Whether it was hate or really dislike, they’re all the same to me. [But] honestly, she apologized very genuinely,” Jenna noted. “She was like, ‘I didn’t know you and I decided to let everyone else’s opinion or things I’d heard make my decision and after I got to know you, I liked you.’ She’s been so nice to me so I can put it behind me.”
As for Sai’s zen journey, she’s convinced it will last.
“I think she’s happier being more chill,” Jenna reasoned.
During a game in which she was asked to pick between her RHONY castmates, Jenna named Brynn as the person who would be in the hot seat most at the reunion and the co-star who stirred the pot the most as she described Erin as the “shadiest” and said Racquel Chevremont, 53, stepped up her fashion the most.
Jenna also said that she changed the most and that fans will be the most surprised by her behavior on the new episodes.
Getting back to Erin, Jenna admitted there was plenty of tension between her and Abe during filming.
“There’s some really intense things going on between the two of them and I think it’s also been a lot at once. I really think they’re gonna get to a better place. But yeah, it was a lot,” she noted.
As for her own relationship, Jenna was asked about her and Cass’s wedding plans.
“Maybe I don’t need to get married. Maybe I already did… Maybe,” she teased.
Then, when fellow guest Jenny McCarthy, 51, said, “Congratulations,” Jenna replied, “Thank you.”
Because Jenna had been on the fence about a return before season 15, Andy Cohen, 56, wanted to know what changed her mind.
“Last time it was hard. I kind of got taken down and I wasn’t used to that,” she explained. “And then when I heard that Racquel was coming, and Rebecca, I felt like, ‘Okay, the dynamic will shift.’ I was the oldest woman. I was 15 years older than all of those women and that is a real divide and then having another gay lady, who is also hot… She’s so hot.”
Also on the live broadcast, Jenna said it was the right move for Bryn to leave after Sai called her Satan.
“I think it might have been a good moment to exit. If someone called me Satan, I think I’m done,” she stated.
Later, on the WWHL: After Show, Jenna was asked if she felt that Brynn’s comment about Rebecca Minkoff‘s products being sold at Nordstrom Rack was shade.
“It was kind of shade. I don’t know if it’s not true. But I think it was kind of shade,” she stated. “[But] Nordstrom Rack is great. We should be so lucky. Sell your sh*t. Who cares where?”
The Real Housewives of New York City season 15 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
