Brynn Whitfield and Ubah Hassan have had a season filled with tension on The Real Housewives of New York City. Their arguments have often revolved around their individual friendships with Erin Lichy. Whitfield has been outspoken about Hassan’s habit of yelling at the other housewives, which has further strained their relationship.
Things took a dramatic turn during the season finale when the two got into an intense argument after Hassan accused Whitfield of sleeping with someone to secure her spot on the show.
Whitfield expressed how deeply this accusation hurt her, especially because Hassan was aware of her past sexual assault experience. The situation escalated into a heated exchange, with Hassan denying that she knew about Whitfield’s trauma. Their argument turned into a classic “I didn’t know” versus “Yes, you did” kind of fight, leaving emotions raw and unresolved.
This explosive fight occurred during a cast trip, mirroring a similar conflict from earlier in the season. Whitfield compared their previous clash, saying it felt like a repeat of their trip to Anguilla. “I feel like everything is basically Anguilla 2.0,” Whitfield commented. “Except now, it’s like the battle royale is between Ubah and I. It’s like the same thing: Hot Tub Time Machine From Hell.”
Despite Hassan’s claims that she was unaware of Whitfield’s trauma, the argument created an even deeper divide between the two. Whitfield openly questioned Hassan’s awareness, saying, “She might or might not know, but it still hurt me deeply.” Their unresolved fight left the other housewives frustrated and emotionally drained.
Racquel Chevremont and Jessel Taank Reflect on the Fallout
Racquel Chevremont shared her thoughts with Bravo, describing the aftermath of the trip as emotionally exhausting for the entire cast. “We basically crawled away from that trip,” she admitted. The drama had clearly taken its toll on the housewives, who seemed to have had enough of Whitfield and Hassan’s ongoing disputes.
Jessel Taank, whose actions indirectly started the conflict, also spoke with Bravo about her role in the situation. She explained that, at the time, she believed she was making the right decision but later realized the unintended consequences.
“You know, there’s a part of me that felt like I did the right thing, but then there’s also a part of me that’s like, ‘F—, I just lit this s— on fire,’” Taank said.
Throughout the season, Taank had tried to de-escalate conflicts between the two women. However, she admitted that her efforts often backfired. “We have been sandwiched between this Brynn and Ubah argument, and I just wanted to defuse the situation,” she explained. “But this is why I don’t get involved. You see what happens.”
The drama from this season has left fans with plenty to discuss, and it’s clear that trust among the cast has been fractured. You can catch all the action and the fallout from the season finale on The Real Housewives of New York City.
