It looks like the beef between Real Housewives of New York star Brynn Whitfield and host Jeff Lewis isn’t going to die down anytime soon. In fact, Brynn has gone on to call him a pig without a second’s hesitation.
The shade-throwing and name-calling happened on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. Andy asked Brynn if she was excited about the upcoming reunion. She replied that she was excited and that she had been “quiet on purpose” for a very specific reason.
“I don’t wrestle with pigs…” Brynn Whitfield says of her latest foe, Jeff Lewis
“I’m excited, I’m energized,” Brynn said with a smile. “I have been quiet, on purpose. A lady doesn’t wrestle with pigs.”
To which her co-guest Kathy Hilton exclaimed, “Ooh, I like that!”
Brynn quickly clarified that her friends weren’t pigs. “Jeff Lewis is a pig,” she amended. “I am ready to clear the air on many, many things.”
And Kathy, bless her soul, asked innocently about Jeff, “Is he on your show?”
“No,” Brynn replied. “I think he wishes though, he acts like he wants to be on it.”
Kathy additionally went on to tell Brynn she liked Jeff and was surprised she didn’t. Brynn was skeptical and asked, “Yeah? Really? He talks about your sister.” To which Kathy replied, ”Which one?” (Kyle Richards!)
Brynn’s beef with Jeff began when he said that perhaps she was being “supplemented” financially. He said that since many of the RHONY ladies didn’t know how Brynn made the money to support her lifestyle.
Meanwhile, Brynn took that to mean that he was calling her an escort or worse and was deeply insulted. Subsequently, Jeff explained (not apologized) that he didn’t mean to insinuate that and that being supplemented could mean many things.
Either way, Brynn’s not buying it and it looks like these two are staying on the outs.
The Real Housewives of New York continues Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
