Jenna Lyons set boundaries with Real Housewives of New York newbie, Rebecca Minkoff, regarding ‘fake fights.’ Earning her moniker, Jenna F*cking Lyons, the fashionista is disengaging from anything inauthentic while filming.
In an interview with Decider, Rebecca gushed about her newfound friendship with JFL.
Fashionista friends:
The popular designer, whose brand, Rebecca Minkoff, can be found at most major stores, found friendship while filming RHONY.
“We just had a lot of fun together. And she’s been so supportive. And obviously, you know, Racquel [Chevremont] and I were the newbies, so [Jenna] really held my hand through a lot of stuff to just understand how it all works.”
While Rebecca Minkoff founded her multi-million dollar fashion brand nearly 20 years ago, Jenna wass the former executive creative director and president of J.Crew.
JFL ‘disengaged’ in fake fighting:
Minkoff, for her part, had her own ideas as to how she and Lyons could’ve used their fashion backgrounds to spice up the popular Bravo TV show.
“I kept joking with her. I was like, ‘We should do fake fighting over, like, who’s more stylish,’” Rebecca recalled.
Jenna wasn’t having it. “And she was like, ‘We’re good.’” But, Rebecca was persistent in contributing to a false narrative. “I was like, ‘But it’d be so funny if we did that,’” continued the RHONY season 15 newbie. After all was said and done, viewers probably won’t see any faux feuding between the fashionistas.
