Rebecca Minkoff Confirms She’s “Turn[ing] The Page” on RHONY After One Season, See Her Exit Statement, Plus Reveals Which Costars She’s Still Close With

Rebecca Minkoff confirmed she’s “turn[ing] the page” on Real Housewives of New York after her controversial season. The 44-year-old revealed which costars she’s still close with, as she seemingly compared the cast to a “snake pit.”

In the recent season, Rebecca took heat from fans for pretending to be pregnant as a prank. Her friend Erin Lichy was in on the joke, though their friendship had dissolved by the reunion, where Erin denounced her. Earlier this week, a report surfaced that Rebecca wasn’t asked back because she was too “boring.”

“2025 is a new beginning for me,” wrote Rebecca in a February 4 Instagram post. “And with current events in the world, I am reminded the importance of family, friends and community now more than ever. The last month has given me a new perspective on wanting to focus on my wildly amazing 4 kids, my supportive husband, my business of 20 years, the Female Founder Collective, my podcast and MY BOOK.”

“As much as I have learned along the way with this franchise and fans, I want to reprioritize the things that mean the most to me: designing, giving back, supporting women and raising my family,” she continued. “I am truly grateful for the experience, the friendships and the fans that have been part of this RHONY chapter.”

“Time to turn the page.”

In an interview for SiriusXM’s “Reality Checked,” Rebecca revealed which costars she’s still friends with.

According to the business owner, Ubah Hassan and Jessel Taank are “genuine friends” that she feels “very close” with. But she suggested that certain castmates were “soul-sucking” and “negative … a**hole[s].”

“I launched headfirst into the snake pit,” said Rebecca. “And I thought that I could not be affected by it, but it affects you.”

Last month, Rebecca was asked if she’d consider returning next season.

“We will see, lots of things to consider,” she answered on her Instagram Stories. “But dressing up was super fun.”

She further addressed it on Two Ts In A Pod, “I guess [it’s] TBD. My husband is a little bit on the fence about that. Which is why I wasn’t a full time [castmate] to begin with. We do have young kids. So I think he and I have just been weighing if there is a round two, what does it look like?”

Did she have regrets?

“I would have been more vocal at times. And stated opinions more strongly, in the moment,” she said. “Again, I want to support women, I want to see them do well, so unless I have real beef with someone, I wasn’t just going to throw shade just to throw shade.”
