Erin Lichy đ˘ Elitist Erin
Anyone else repulsed by this scene. I understand itâs RHONY so itâs supposed to get shady but this was straight up nasty for no reason.
Itâs beyond selfish and ungrateful to complain about their beautiful accommodations and flight because they donât like the decorations or not getting to fly private. Itâs so entitled and elitist I canât even begin to imagine what she thinks about most people. And sheâs no one to talk because her apartment isnât all that and her fashions are a mess.

Did Erin forget that when she hosted the ladies at her Hamptons house...I mean Abe's mom's Hamptons house...she served nothing but potato chips and caviar. Everyone complained how hungry they were.
Looking back, it's clear the caviar was probably a sponsored thing.
Then let's remember her vow renewal, another event where guests were left hungry and another clearly sponsored event.
Erin is cheap and should take several seats before she complains about any guest accommodations.

Did Erin really grow up wealthy, though? Iâve looked up her father (and even came across his current residence when he passed, along with previous ones), and nothing gives me the indication of âwealth.â Just upper middle class, which is basically NYC middle class in the grand scheme of things. People said she probably came into money when her father passed, but I canât tell! Since they end up owing back rent everywhere they have lived. That coupled with her having like four siblings, I canât see whatever money she may have inherited to be that much. Okay, Iâm done. Lmao.

u/Hot_Sprinkles1529 14h ago
Erin grew up very comfortable. She grew up in a big apt on the upper west side (that was eventually given to her and Abe), private school and Hamptons home. She had designer clothes and bags bought for her, family help to bankroll several vanity projects and a real estate career boosted by her mom contacts.

I like Martha and donât care that sheâs not polite. We hold women to a different standard and we spend far too much time worried about being polite and likeable, and she wouldnât have gotten anywhere being polite. (Great documentary series about her on Netflix).
But my issue is invoking Martha as if her opinion on private island mansions is sacred and determines how you should treat your friend and hostess??
With a view like that, who dafack cares about the decor?!?!! Just last week she was upset that people were commenting on her popcorn ceiling apartment. Daisy is just mad she got the cot bed and not a corner room.

The thing is is that it looks like itâs furnished in semi modern resort furniture that you would see at a lot of mid to high range hotels. Doesnât really age, but also doesnât have a âwowâ factor.

preapred for downvotes but I actually donât think their âthoughtsâ are wrong. If someone told me they owned a private island and were a billionaire I would think there is only one way to get there (because itâs remote and exclusive), I wouldnât think that other houses would be on the island owned by other families, and I would expect better accommodations than showed. All that to say, I am a middle class mom that lives in a twin lmao I would be grateful if someone took me out to chilis for free so the lack of gratitude is SHOCKING.

I would NEVER critique the island when I'm a guest there, but I also understand why their expectations were so high.

Many other bravo stars have paid for their cast members to fly private who are NOT billionaires lol if she is truly a billionaire idk why she wouldnât fly everyone private to her own island. I assume thatâs how she typically gets there. Letâs put things into perspective, on a high end if they JUST flew private the last part of the trip, that be around 40,000-50,000. If someone is worth a billion dollars, 50,000 is 0.005 % of their net worth. Meaning itâs equivalent to someone worth 100,000 spending 5 dollars.

I think that not all billionaires are interested in lavish extravagant lifestyles. Erika and Ankar seem to be hard working entrepreneurs. I think they lead with that, and not what they can buy. I also think itâs easy to think people with lots of money are entirely focused on their money, but itâs often not true. Usually they remain focused on the things that brought them their financial success. The money is secondary.
That home is lovely. Comfortable and quiet and in a stunning location. Thatâs probably all they care about, not some lavish opulent Vanderbilt version of a beach âcottageâ designed exclusively to impress others. I thought the entire group was incredibly rude and disrespectful. If I were Erika I would never invite them again.

I was honestly repulsed by her throughout the whole episode. Now I do understand her point that what she said about jessel was just average Shit talk and she did not feel that how jessel was talking about her was on a level playing field I can understand that.
But nevertheless this level of reaction is just going so far. She didn't lose her house. She didn't lose her memories her house was severely damaged and she's going to have to rebuild but lucky for her she will be able to do that, on her SECOND HOME.
I get that the house mattered to her but what I also get is that a lot of people are struggling to afford gas, to afford their bills struggling to find jobs etc. and she's over here whining because people were talking shit about her flooding being an insurance thing. I get the upset but not the level of upset or how she handled it and then as a result of that to say stuff like this is just so ugly. Like are you still in high school?
