What happened in The Real Housewives Of New York City season 15 episode 10?

The episode began with Jenna hosting a highly anticipated stoop sale, which garnered significant attention from prominent publications such as The New York Times and The Cut.

Despite the event's popularity, none of the other ladies attended. Jenna confessed that parting with certain items in her closet proved challenging for her. She also subtly hinted at her motivation for creating space, suggesting that she needed to make room for her girlfriend to move in.

"I want to make room for new things and new experiences. Having Cass move in has been, like, one of the best things to happen... I want to make room because I really love having my partner," said Jenna.

Erin and Racquel met up to clear up any misunderstandings that may have built up over the course of the season. Erin started by claiming that she had been going through some personal stuff.

Racquel revealed that when she hung out with Brynn, she was in on it, which she found bizarre. Erin praised Racquel for confronting the issue head-on as she believed they had an "open and honest conversation".

The cast then met for the ballroom party, celebrating Racquel and Mel's engagement. Racquel revealed that her Aunt Diana would be joining the party but her mother couldn't make it because of a prior engagement.

While every The Real Housewives Of New York City cast member dressed their best to match the vibe of the party, Sai couldn't attend due to a foot injury she suffered earlier.

After the party, Brynn Whitfield was seen sitting at home with her ghostwriter. Brynn collaborated with her ghostwriter to discuss the development of her upcoming self-help book and memoir. The Real Housewives Of New York City further revealed that she suffered a s*xual assault in the past.

The memory of the incident still evoked strong emotions, causing her to break down in tears. Brynn confessed that she initially felt embarrassed, blamed herself, and struggled to process the event.

Brynn also expressed her difficulty in sharing the experience with her 87-year-old grandmother, Darlene, due to concerns about her grandmother's age and potential reaction. Brynn and her two siblings were raised by their grandmother who played a maternal role in their upbringing.

"I didn't tell Mimi. She just thought I was really busy. So I feel like that experience like robbed me a lot. It robbed me of wanting to get married. It robbed me of maybe I won't have children but the worst it robbed me of like the last year with her," revealed Brynn in a confessional.

Brynn reflected on the importance of opening up about personal struggles, regardless of the circumstances on The Real Housewives Of New York City. She realized that hiding her experience had led to feelings of loss and regret, particularly after her grandmother's passing.
