Where did RHONY Season 15 leave off?
The emotional RHONY Season 15 finale ended with a cast trip to Puerto Rico that included Sai, Erin, Jessel, Jenna Lyons, Racquel Chevremont, Ubah Hassan, Brynn Whitfield, and Rebecca Minkoff. After drama erupted between Ubah and Brynn involving an off-camera conversation about sexual assault, the ladies headed back to New York early. As Jessel declared, "So much has happened. I don't know if it will ever be the same."
By the time the Season 15 reunion filmed in December 2024, Erin was expecting her fourth baby with husband Abe Lichy after the death of her father, Eliahu Yitzhari. (The couple announced the birth of their son, Jack, in March 2025.) When host Andy Cohen opened up the floor for some final thoughts, Sai solidified the repair of her and Erin's friendship with one more apology for admittedly talking "a lot of crap" about her all season.
After also hashing out their issues through the two-part cast sit-down, Ubah and Brynn made peace with each other, too. Jenna, meanwhile, reiterated that they all care about Brynn "very deeply," which is why the cast was so "worried about" her, despite also being "mad and frustrated" about some of the things that she'd done. Brynn, for her part, said she was "sorry for multiple things," especially her issues involving Jessel and Ubah, and vowed "to be a better friend" to the group as a whole.
