Brynn Whitfield is leaving The Real Housewives of New York City, and apparently her costars are...pleased with the decision. To put it mildly.
“The cast has largely distanced themselves from Brynn, and it was a relief for all of the ladies to hear that she will not be returning,” a source tells Page Six. “Whether or not any of the girls get to hang on to their apples, they’re elated that Brynn has dropped hers. Honestly, they’d be scared to film with her again after the mess she made last season.”
Brynn announced her decision to leave the Bravo show earlier this week, writing in part, “After a lot of thought, I’ve made the decision to walk away from reality TV. For now. The Real Housewives of New York City will always be one of the most fun, chaotic, and magical chapters of my life. It was the honor of a lifetime to help reboot such an iconic franchise. From day one, I’ve believed RHONY is a fan’s show—we’re just temporary custodians of something that truly belongs to the viewers. I hope I made you laugh (a lot), cry (a little), and more than anything—I hope there’s a TV in heaven so that Mimi (who LIVED for her shows) could watch me and be proud. To every person who gave me a chance, cheered me on, and afforded me love and grace—thank you. I’m endlessly grateful.”
Brynn also said she’ll be spending her time working on her dating app and gearing up for her book. Read her full statement below!
