The Real Housewives of New York cast barely started their trip to Puerto Rico and it’s already tit-for-tat between Brynn Whitfield and Rebecca Minkoff. The real issue was the room situation at the resort.
In the most recent episode, Rebecca made a comment about understanding an aspect of motherhood while discussing who should share a room. The comment triggered Brynn, who is hopeful to have children and had frozen her eggs months prior. The duo started bickering again at dinner, and the episode left off at that. But the question is how Brynn and Rebecca are nowadays.
Rebecca Minkoff did acknowledge how she could have “struck a nerve” with Brynn Whitfield
Rebecca is a mother of four. She stated that her needs for a single room should be prioritized since she has so little time and space to herself. Brynn responded that she is also busy. The fashion mogul argued that her situation was “a little different.”
“You’ll know when you have ’em,” Rebecca stated.
Brynn responded, “I have a puppy. We all have very busy lives … It doesn’t matter if you have kids or not.”
The RHONY newbie spoke to the contrary during a conversation with Bravo HQ.
“I just said, ‘When you have kids you’ll know.’ It’s, like, one of those things … Until you give birth, you don’t know how painful it is,” she explained.
Rebecca added, “The touching, the needing, and the ‘mom, mom, mom, mom, mom!’”
Despite being confident in her arguments, Rebecca understood how the comment could have “struck a nerve” with Brynn. However, she “was not privy” to all the information regarding her costar’s fertility journey.
“I did not know her history,” Rebecca said. “I knew she wanted to be a mom, but a lot of people say that. I didn’t know she was freezing her eggs … So, when I doubled down on my statement, I really got an explosion. And I was like, ‘Oh, wow.’”
For Brynn, the conversation was “extraordinarily hurtful.”
“I know that I don’t have children. I cry. I wake up in the night crying because I don’t have children, you know?” she revealed.
