'RHONY' Season 14: Sai De Silva slammed for being 'unreasonably mean' as she questions co-star Jessel Taank about her sex life

Jessel Taank talked about her date night with husband Pavit Randhawa to 'RHONY' co-star Sai De Silva

NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: In the October 1 episode of 'The Real Housewives of New York City' Season 14, Sai De Silva and Erin Lichy went on a double date with their husbands and did what they do best: talking about Jessel Taank.

Following Episode 12, Bravo viewers flocked to social media to criticize Sai for "being unreasonably mean" to Jessel. Jessel and Pavit Randhawa finally got their staycation at the Ritz-Carlton. They ate at a Michelin-starred restaurant, hired a nanny, and slept in a hotel suite.

When Erin and Abe Lichy went out with Sai and David Craig, they discussed Pavit and Jessel's relationship over dinner.

Jessel invited Sai for lunch at the conclusion of the episode, and she agreed. However, she immediately said in her confessional, "Why do we have to go to lunch? I don’t want to go to lunch."

Jessel chose a brunch location that would be handy for Sai and then arrived 41 minutes late, without a text or a phone call.

When Jessel finally reached, Sai was understandably irritated and her demeanor was frigid. Sai was certain Jessel was lying as she started talking about her date night with Pavit.

Fans on social media questioned why Jessel would lie about having sex with her spouse. This made no sense to them. On X, fans wrote, "Super weird that Sai wanted details about Jessel having sex with her husband in order to believe that Jessel actually had sex with her husband."

Another person chimed in, "Sai is THE biggest hater. Her thinking Jessel lied is so stupid. Why would she go into detail with you? You’re one of the main people hating on her AND her sex life."

One viewer also wrote, "So Sai and Erin talk about Jessel not having sex. She tells them they had sex and now Sai doesn’t believe because she didn’t tell her every detail. Girl."

A fourth user reminded Sai, "Sai, Jessel doesn’t owe you any details and their sex life is really none of your business."

On Reddit, viewers noted, "Sai is being unreasonably mean to jessel." Another user said, "Sai is 100% a mean girl." 

When did 'RHONY' couple Jessel Taank and Pavit Singh Randhawa get married?

Jessel decided to move to New York City to chase her American dream, where she eventually met her husband, Pavit. Although they didn't start dating right away, Jessel, a fashion publicist, and Pavit, president of Phone Daddy, kept up a strong connection as they were roommates before they began dating.

Pavit ultimately proposed to Jessel during a fantastic Labor Day weekend after three years of dating. In October 2014, the pair married in Mexico in a lovely ceremony where they exchanged vows.

Kai Singh Randhawa and Rio Singh Randhawa, twin boys of Jessel and her spouse Pavit, were born in May 2021.

Sai De Silva calls 'RHONY' co-star Jessel Taank 'a little dramatic'

Jessel apologized to Sai for not being able to open up in the way that Sai wished, saying that Jessel's uncle (with whom she lived when she went to New York) was an alcoholic, making it difficult for her to talk about that time in her life.

Jessel referenced Sai's mother, who was also an alcoholic and died as a result of the addiction. Jessel brought this up as a basis for them to unite, but Sai perceived it as Jessel comparing their problems.

Jessel began to cry and Sai remarked that she was "a little dramatic."

"I didn’t come from a family that openly talks about this s**t," Jessel added, explaining why it's more difficult for her to go into her history the way Sai does.

What happened to 'RHONY' star Sai De Silva's mother?

According to reports, Sai's mother was diagnosed with bipolar disorder but refused to believe it. She went a long time without taking medication, which caused her to be addicted to alcohol.

Even though Sai attempted several times to assist her mother, she never listened.

'The Real Housewives of New York City' Season 14 airs every Sunday on Bravo at 9 pm ET.
