Season 15 of The Real Housewives of New York has given fans a new friendship dynamic. These ladies are popping off left and right, often for no reason. I’m hoping we can get to some fun drama, and soon. Meanwhile, Jessel Taank celebrated her birthday with a Clueless-themed party. She had three outfit changes and a photographer there to document every moment. However, the real drama happened between Erin Lichy and Jenna Lyons.

Once again, Erin seemed over-the-top upset because Jenna hadn’t checked in for a while. I do understand that Erin is dealing with issues with her husband Abe Lichy, and with her mom’s cancer battle. However, declaring that she no longer wants to be friends with Jenna seems a bit much.
Jessel Taank weighs in on the drama between Jenna Lyons and Erin Lichy
Recently, Jessel was a guest on Watch What Happens Live. Host Andy Cohen had Jessel explain how each of her co-stars was “basic.” Jessel called Jenna “a denim-wearing cat lady now.” Nothing wrong with that!
I also love how Jenna pranked Jessel by giving her a Christmas tree costume as a joke. As you may recall, last season Jessel complained that the green lingerie Jenna gave her made her look like a Christmas tree.
Then, during the After Show, a fan asked Jessel, “Do you agree with Jenna that’s she just a bad communicator, and do you think she had any malice by not reaching out to Erin?” Jessel answered right away.
“Yeah. Absolutely no malice there,” she stated. “I think Jenna’s booked and busy. And you know … I think that she genuinely cares about her friendships,” Jessel continued. “And I … I don’t believe that she was doing it, like, knowingly.”
I don’t think Jenna meant to leave Erin hanging. Of course, Erin could reach out to Jenna, too. I think that the fact that Jenna is figuring out a time to hang out with Erin is positive. However, I believe that Jenna hanging out with Sai De Silva made Erin jealous. So, there was more to this incident than Jenna realized.
Real Housewives of New York continues on Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
