Sai De Silva clapped back after Brynn Whitfield leaked her shady text about Jessel Taank on the season 15 premiere of The Real Housewives of New York. Sai revealed the context of the message, and shared what wasn’t explained on the show.
During the episode, Brynn read the text from Sai, who wrote: “F*** you [Jessel] and your Dory from Finding Nemo look alike husband too.” Strangely, Jessel didn’t give much of a reaction to the message during the episode.
On her Instagram, Sai addressed the text that “Brynn read on the show.”
“I just wanted to give some context because there’s absolutely no context to that message,” said Sai, via @queensofbravo on Instagram. “One, I was mad as hell, okay? And when I’m mad, I have a horrible mouth. It could be very lethal, and I’ve been keeping it very PG.”
The star then revealed the timeline of the message.
“But I was fight[ing] with Jessel last year. This message was last year,” she went on. “We all know since then, me and Jessel have made up and moved on. I sent that message to Jessel in a group chat. So, everyone saw it, including Jessel. It wasn’t like I was talking behind her back. I was talking to her face.”
“But I have since apologized,” she added. “And me and Jessel are in a really good place. I love Jessel. But I wanted to give you guys some context of exactly where that message came from. I have no idea why it was read. It shouldn’t have been.”
In a 2023 interview with ET, Sai reacted to Jessel’s claim that Sai is a ‘mean girl.’
“I think when people hear honesty, it really does hurt their feelings at the end of the day, and it could come off in a way where I am being mean; but I’m definitely not a mean girl, not one bit,” said Sai. “I’m just a very honest person. I’m a girl’s girl. She knows that at the end of the day.”
At the time, Sai claimed she and Brynn were “cool” but no longer “best [friends].”
The Real Housewives of New York airs Tuesday nights on Bravo.
