Real Housewives of New York cast member Ubah Hassan doesn’t just eat with a butter knife. She seems to think of herself as being one, too. She is the butter knife. How very zen of her.
“People know that I’m a butter knife,” she laughs. “I don’t usually cut. I’m a knife that cuts only room-temperature butter.”
“[But] when I’m poked properly,” Ubah warns, “I do turn into a machete, and I think that’s what happened in Anguilla. Don’t poke the bear.”
Later in Season 14, viewers will see the new RHONY cast travel to Anguilla on their first international trip together. A newly released teaser includes footage of a hot tub shouting match between real estate mogul Erin Lichy and the Somali model. Things get a little (hot) saucy, as Erin accuses Ubah of turning everyone against her.
The hot tub’s not all that’s overheated
Rather than relaxing and having fun together, of course, the women are going to fight on their Caribbean vacation. I think it’s in their contracts. Erin was screaming at the Ubah Hot founder from the hot tub, “Shut up!”
But Ubah refused to stop and kept asking, “Is it true? Is it true?”
“Shut your f**ing mouth,” Erin yelled. “You’re such a bitch.”
“No, no, you are a bitch,” Ubah countered. I’m rubber, you’re glue. You know the rest.
What could Erin and Ubah be fighting about? We’ve all seen how easily offended Erin can be. She took offense at Sai and Brynn skipping her dinner reservations to go to a more trendy place and then posting about it on social media. She was offended at Sai’s criticizing her cheese plate (aka Cheesegate). The luxury real estate agent got angry when the ladies talked through all the boring speeches at her anniversary gala and then Sai executed an Irish goodbye to go and eat.
And Erin was really pissed off at Brynn flirting with her husband at their vow renewal. Though I have to admit I see her point on that one. It was in questionable taste. But Brynn flirts with everyone. She’d probably flirt with the grieving widower at a funeral: “Call me when you’re ready to start dating again.”
Up until now, I thought Ubah was the sweet one in the group. But even the “sweet” one can go sour if she’s pushed hard enough. Can’t wait to see what happens that disengages her “control cruise” and activates her “machete” mode.
Real Housewives of New York continues on Sundays at 9/8c on Bravo.
