The Real Housewives of New York cast traveled to Puerto Rico in the Tuesday, December 10 episode. The episode had all the elements of a successful RHONY girlsâ trip. They fought over room assignments, sipped on cocktails, and a major argument broke out during dinner. What more could you ask for?
If you missed the chaos, Iâll bring you up to speed. Hereâs your recap for Real Housewives of New York Season 15, Episode 11 called, âResorting to Madness.â
What happened on Real Housewives of New York Season 15, Episode 11?
Itâs time for the first girlsâ trip of the season! The women said goodbye to New York and headed to Puerto Rico. Iâm pleased to report it was a good episode. Erin and Ubah made amends, Jessel lost her suitcase, and Brynn and Rebecca went head-to-head.
Keep reading for a more detailed recap of tonightâs episode.
The women board a plane to Puerto Rico on Real Housewives of New York
Episode 11 kicked off with the women boarding a plane to Puerto Rico. There is still some tension between Erin and Ubah, who have yet to have a conversation about the gaslighting allegations at the picnic party. Erin wants to squash the beef immediately. In a confessional, she says she doesnât want an âAnguilla 2.0â situation. Oh God, same. I donât need another Phonegate thing. Ubah (surprisingly) seems down to bury the hatchet. However, she hasnât totally forgiven Erin, which is not surprising given how Ubah has operated this season.
The RHONY cast freaks out over room assignments
In typical RHONY fashion, there is drama over room assignments. Shoutout to Luannâs meltdown over the fish room. I miss her so much! There are six bedrooms, which means four women will need to share. Jenna and Racquel agree to share the primary bedroom. Hmm. I canât help but think about Jennaâs hall pass comment from a few episodes ago⌠Weâll see.
Unfortunately, the other women arenât as willing to share. Sai volunteers to share but everyone else is set on having their own space. Brynn says sheâll take âthe sh*ttiest roomâ if she doesnât have to share. The group is satisfied with this compromise. Rebecca doesnât want to share but Brynn nominates her to be Saiâs roommate. Brynnâs hatred for Rebecca is so perplexing to me. Sheâs been nothing but chill and nice. Erin tells Rebecca to stand up for herself, but Rebecca doesnât want to give Brynn the reaction she is hoping for.
The room drama continues on Real Housewives of New York
The women arrive at the house and are greeted by Marieliz, the house manager, and Eli, the bartender, who welcomes them with cocktails. Moments before their arrival, we hear Eli and Marieliz talking about how theyâve never watched the show, but they know itâs about âwomen with money,â (LOL). If there is one thing the RHONY reboot is going to do itâs break the fourth wall. They are OBSESSED with doing that.
Once they get inside, the room scramble begins. The women (excluding Ubah) run around the house to find the best room. Shades of Ramona Singer and Sonja Morgan linger in the air. Brynn backtracks on her promise and decides to leave Ubah with âthe sh*ttiest room.â Ubah is chilling outside and seems completely unbothered by the room assignments. When she first hears about Brynn breaking her promise she doesnât care. She tells the women she is just happy to be here with them. But then she sees the room and has a meltdown. She refuses to stay in the room and threatens to go to a hotel. So dramatic! Itâs not a bad room by any means. Itâs just a little small. Sai plays peacekeeper by offering to take the room and Erin agrees to room with Rebecca, so Ubah can have a better room. I wish they didnât cave so easily. Ubah was giving Ramona vibes in this scene. Not cute.
Brynn and Rebeccaâs feud reaches a new level
Brynn enters Jenna and Racquelâs room. The vibes are fun until Rebecca appears and Brynnâs demeanor completely changes. Damn, she really does hate her. She asks Rebecca if she is ok with sharing a room. Rebecca says sheâs not but is willing to be the bigger person. She explains that she wants her own room because her bed is constantly filled with children at home. When Brynn pushes back Rebecca responds by saying sheâll understand when she has kids. Yikes. Not good. Brynn wants a family and Rebecca knows that. The comment sets her off. Brynn starts lamenting about how she is âextraordinarily busyâ so she understands needing time alone. Itâs honestly a good scene. It feels like the most authentic moment of tension weâve had all season.
Ubah and Erin clear the air on Real Housewives of New York
Meanwhile, Jessel is searching for her missing suitcase. We find out Brynn hid her suitcase to mess with her. OH MY GOD! ENOUGH WITH THE PRANKS! I really need them to stop this. They arenât even good pranks. Brynn eventually tells her where her suitcase is and this storyline goes nowhere. What was the point of that?
Erin and Ubah finally have a conversation. They agree to disagree when it comes to whether Erin is a gaslighter or not but overall, the conversation is productive and they come to a resolution. Ubah says she was hurt that Erin didnât come to her when she was upset by the comment. She had to hear about it from Brynn. Erin apologizes and the two agree to move forward.
Later on, Ubah tells the other women about her conversation with Erin. She repeats what she said outside, telling the women she does think Erin gaslights people but sheâs happy to move forward and be friends. Brynn runs off and tells Erin that the women are sh*t talking her downstairs. It couldnât be further from the truth. Brynn, you potstirrer! Erin goes downstairs to confront the women. Erin relays what Brynn said and asks if anyone else thinks she is a gaslighter. Sai raises her hand and says she thinks Erin does tend to gaslight. She brings up the pregnancy prank, which really sets Erin off. She yells, âAM I IN LOONEYVILLE?â and runs out of the room. Itâs a crazy moment.
Rebecca calls Brynn a bully on Real Housewives of New York
Five minutes later, Erin isnât mad anymore and they are all chillinâ in the pool. Haha, classic Housewives. Rebecca talks to Erin, Jenna, and Jessel about her awkward moment with Brynn. The women encourage Rebecca to stand up to Brynn. Jenna asks what would need to happen for her to fight back. Rebecca says itâs not a matter of what itâs when. Oooh, okay, Rebecca!
Meanwhile, Brynn is venting to Racquel, Ubah, and Sai about Rebeccaâs comment. None of them say anything because none of them agree with her. Iâm Team Rebecca on this one. She wasnât saying Brynn isnât as busy as her. It is true that you have less alone time when you have children. I donât understand why that is so hard for Brynn to acknowledge.
The Rebecca/Brynn feud comes to a head at dinner when Brynn once again brings up Rebeccaâs comment. The Fashion Maven keeps her cool but points out that Brynn has made several rude comments about her. Brynn makes a series of nonsensical points in this scene. Erin tries to explain that when you have children itâs hard to get a good nightâs rest because children are constantly coming into your bedroom. Brynn claims to understand this struggle because Russian billionaires call her in the night. What? Yeah, this is not her best moment. The episode ends with Rebecca calling Brynn a bully. YikesâŚI guess weâll have to wait until next week to see how this ends.
I actually enjoyed this episode of RHONY. I was invested in the Brynn and Rebecca drama. It was one of the few storylines this season that felt authentic.
Real Housewives of New York airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
