Jeff Lewis gets down in the mud after RHONY star Brynn Whitfield calls him a 'pig'-quang

It's a good old-fashioned Bravo catfight. Or, rather, pig fight.

There's strife in the Bravo universe. But when isn't there? That is, after all, why we watch. This latest tension is between The Real Housewives of New York City's Brynn Whitfield and former Flipping Out star Jeff Lewis.

Lewis and his SiriusXM show, Jeff Lewis Live, have been something of a Greek chorus for the Housewives franchise. Many a Housewife has visited Lewis' show to dish the dirt and get a little messy, with clips of said messiness inevitably making their way onto the shows themselves — and stirring up further trouble.

Whitfield got caught in the crosshairs and on a recent Watch What Happens Live appearance called Lewis a "pig." Lewis wasn't going to take that lying down, and in typical messy fashion, unloaded his hot takes on Whitfield.

Brynn Whitfield, Jeff Lewis

It all started when Whitfield's RHONY costar Erin Lichy stopped by Jeff Lewis Live and Lewis intimated that Brynn had a sugar daddy — or, in his words, that Whitfield was being "supplemented." Lichy disagreed with Lewis' assessment, though Brynn initially blamed Erin for her involvement in the shade, which played out earlier this season on RHONY.

On a subsequent appearance on Watch What Happens Live, Lewis clarified that he wasn't calling Brynn an escort, as she had taken it, though he stopped short of apologizing. On her own recent WWHL sitdown with Andy Cohen, Whitfield reignited the feud when asked if she was excited for the upcoming RHONY reunion.

"I'm excited, I'm energized," Whitfield said. "I have been quiet, on purpose. A lady doesn't wrestle with pigs."

Making it clear that her friends weren't the swine in question, she added, "Jeff Lewis is a pig. I am ready to clear the air on many, many things."

After hearing Lewis' name mentioned, the other WWHL guest — who happened to be none other than Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kathy Hilton — asked: "Oh, is he on your show?"

"No, I think he wishes though," replied Whitfield. "He acts like he wants to be on it."

Back on Jeff Lewis Live, the radio host put 10 toes down in the pigsty and went hog wild.

"I don't find her to be a lady," he began. "I don't even find her to be an adult. I think she acts like an oversexed teenager on that show and that's what I have said. You know, I think she's desperate for attention. She flirts with other people's spouses and partners and parents, and this is all I have said. This is what I have noticed. I don't like the shtick. It seems to me like she's very desperate for attention and, by the way, the audience is turning on her and the things that I said are really indefensible. You can't say that that's not the truth."

Knowing Whitfield, silent but deadly, we'll have to wait until the RHONY season 15 reunion early next year for her response to Lewis' mudslinging.
