RHONY Preview: How Ubah Hassan's Feud With Brynn Whitfield Really Started

Ubah Hassan is done trusting Brynn Whitfield.

In fact, in E! News' exclusive sneak peek at The Real Housewives of New York City's Oct. 8 episode, the former model opens up to costar Sai De Silva about her frustration with the ongoing miscommunications within their cast—and why she blames Brynn for causing the drama.

"It's sad for me to see people's words getting twisted," Ubah says in the preview. "You can be vulnerable with this one, this one goes and tells this one and flips things."

She especially calls out Brynn for spreading a rumor that Erin Lichy said Jenna Lyons had financial problems after Jenna's vintage car broke down in the Hamptons—which Erin vehemently denied during the Bravo series' season 15 premiere.

And after Ubah labels Brynn an "intelligent f--king manipulator" in the clip, Sai agrees by chiming in, "It's like she wants everyone else to fight but only be friends with her."

In a confessional, Ubah explains the real root of her beef with Brynn started when Brynn revealed her private romance with German investment banker Oliver Dachsel last season.

"Brynn and I were really close," Ubah recounted. "But when Brynn exposed my boyfriend, I was really shocked, because Sai was the only person who knew about this. Then I was like, 'Oh, Brynn is not loyal. Because Sai has been there for you.' When she did that, whoa. I'm taking 10 steps back."

And Brynn's latest rumor spreading only made things worse.

"Every time Brynn starts twisting information," Ubah continued, "to me, I'm like 10 more steps back. I think I'm somewhere in the Maldives. I'm not even in New York anymore."

See the feud intensify when The Real Housewives of New York City airs Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
