Real Housewives of New York star Leah McSweeney dishes on her new castmate Eboni K. Williams. Even though she successfully holds back on giving away any RHONY spoilers, she still teases fans with juicy info on the upcoming season.
Leah appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on Monday.
During the episode, a viewer asks her what her first impression of her new costar Eboni was and which cast member the newcomer first clashed with.
“My first impression was great, actually, and…she hasn’t disappointed me, I’ll put it that way,” Leah answers. “So, we’re actually very close, and I love having her on the show with me.”
“Who did she clash with first? I mean, am I allowed to say this?” Leah asks cautiously.
After Andy warns her not to answer and give away any spoilers, Leah finds a clever way to not spoil the show while hooking fans and hinting at what’s to come for Season 13.
“I’m only gonna say this, you’ll be surprised by who she clashed with first. It’s not who you think,” Leah teases.
