Erin Lichy reacted to Brynn Whitfield’s recent podcast interview in which she gave a big hint about her salary for “The Real Housewives of New York City.”
On the “Come Together” podcast that she co-hosts with her lawyer husband, Abe, the RHONY star called out Whitfield for spilling cast salary secrets.
“She’s sitting there talking about how much money she makes, how much she spends on DoorDash, which by the way, there’s no way she’s spending two grand on DoorDash a week,” Lichy said on her podcast. “And then she’s saying how much we get paid, which is like stuff we’re not supposed to talk about.”
“It’s actually contractual that we’re not supposed to talk about how much we make,” Lichy stated.
“I was actually surprised by that because I know [what’s] in the contracts,” added Abe.
Brynn Whitfield Talked About Her Co-Star’s Jobs & Her Salary
Whitfield spilled the beans during an April 2025 appearance on the “Trading Secrets” podcast. While speaking with host Jason Tartick, Whitfield, who works as a brand marketing consultant, claimed that she was the only RHONY star with a full-time job outside of the show.
“We have influencers, we have models, we have art curators,” Whitfield said of her Season 15 co-stars, which included Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Jessel Taank, and Jenna Lyons. “We have people that did work at J. Crew three years ago, but now they’re just, like, honorary positions. We have, like, a real estate agent that hasn’t sold a house in seven years.”
Whitfield was quick to clarify that all of the omen are making money and doing important jobs. She went on to say her salary from RHONY is “grocery money.”
“It’s my DoorDash money,” she cracked. “I spend more on DoorDash per week than what I made per season.”
Whitfield later estimated that she spends between $2,000 to $3,000 a week on DoorDash.
Erin Lichy Said She Recently Closed a Big Real Estate Deal
On her podcast, Lichy addressed Whitfield’s false assessment of her real estate career. “She said, ‘We have a real estate agent that hasn’t sold anything in seven years,’” Lichy noted. “First of all, I closed on something this summer that was over $4 million … [but] I don’t talk about that because that’s just not who I am.”
“I’m doing real estate transactions very quietly because it’s really not my main job right now,” the mom of four added. “It’s not where I’m going in my life. So when I do a real estate transaction, I don’t talk about it.”
As for why Whitfield talked about the cast at all, Lichy said, “I’m assuming that [Brynn said] all that [expletive] to get the buzz.”
