Brynn Whitfield Shades Jeff Lewis as a “Pig” and He Responds

Brynn Whitfield shaded Jeff Lewis as a “pig” while appearing on Watch What Happens Live earlier this week and now, he’s responding.

After the 37-year-old Real Housewives of New York City star called out the 54-year-old Flipping Out alum, accusing him of wanting to be on her Bravo show, Jeff fired back, shading her diss while also calling her out for attempting to turn Kathy Hilton, 65, against him, and slamming her “desperate” behavior.

“Jeff Lewis is a pig,” Brynn declared on the December 3 episode of the WWHL: After Show.

“Is he on your show?” Kathy replied.

“No. I think he wishes though, he acts like he wants to be on it,” Brynn noted.

While Kathy said she likes Jeff and admitted she was surprised that Brynn had taken issue with him, Brynn reminded the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star that Jeff “talks about [her] sister.”

“Oh. He does? Which one?” Kathy wondered.

“[Kyle Richards],” Brynn shared. “Supposedly he sends her orchids all the time, to apologize.”

While Jeff has commented on Kyle’s separation from Mauricio Umansky, 54, and fueled rumors about her alleged romance with Morgan Wade, 29, and use of Ozepmic, both of which she’s denied, Kathy defended him, saying he was “just trying to have fun.”

“This is Hollywood, baby. We gotta just take it,” she stated.

“And that’s the thing. I think Jeff and I would actually get along cuz he’s like silly Billy,” Brynn admitted.

Following the broadcast, during an episode of SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live, Jeff said that while he was “not that affected” by Brynn calling him a pig, he did have some thoughts on her other statements.

“I feel like if I were to call someone a pig, there would be major backlash and consequences. I also didn’t feel like it was a very intelligent response,” he explained. “I mean, I’m an avid, you know, housewife watcher and I comment, and I’ve never really called her names. She’ll say I called her names but prove it.”

As RHONY fans may recall, Brynn and Jeff began feuding weeks ago after he suggested that she may have someone funding her lifestyle. And while there have been claims that he accused her of being a sugar baby, he didn’t use the wording.

After hearing what Jeff had to say, Kelly Bensimon, 56, said Brynn had targeted him “to be relevant” as Crystal Kung-Minkoff, 41, noted that Kathy had defended him.

Then, after Jeff noted that he and Kathy had hung out before and said he appreciated her having his back, he noted how Brynn tried to cause drama between them.

“She immediately tries to manipulate and cause discord between me and Kathy,” he shared. “Kyle and I have been friends for a long time. You know, I’ve made jokes at her expense on this radio show, and I’ve apologized, and I’ve sent her orchids and we’re good, so I think for her to do that, and I also think, I found it interesting that when she said, ‘A lady doesn’t wrestle with pigs.’ I don’t find her to be a lady. I don’t even find her to be an adult. I think she acts like an oversexed teenager on that show and that’s what I have said.”

Continuing on, Jeff said, “I think she’s desperate for attention. She flirts with other people’s spouses and partners and parents, and this is all I have said. This is what I have noticed. I don’t like the shtick. I feel like, it seems to me like she’s very desperate for attention.”

The Real Housewives of New York City season 15 airs Tuesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
