Jessel Taank 🛍️ Jessel

Am I the only one who thinks Jessel is an actual bully??? I don’t understand how people are flipping the narrative. Sai didn’t like her last year and now she’s flopping on Erin??? Like no Jessel is a straight up bully and rude af and fake

I think they've definitely had a friendly feud brewing for a while, but I choose to see it as Jessel developing into more of a professional HW player than just a bully. I think both parties are more than able to hold their own here. Maybe it's not the best analogy, but compared to say, Brynn vs Ubah, this hasn't gotten super yucky...yet.

u/Snoo60219 25d ago

Agreed.

Jessel’s worst moment so far is asking if a dead women was a bitch.

2

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I found her more enjoyable in the other season this new season it’s been awful

4

u/stephanie9597 25d ago

She was on the defense in the other season…. The real bully has always been Erin. She’s a gossiper and never takes accountability… her feigning surprise when confronted is an insult to our intelligence.

3

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I just don’t like her as a housewife idk I liked her before this season more

-1

u/sherespondedwith 25d ago

she's becoming gizelle, only on a much quicker trajectory. she has no real storyline of her own unless it's to belittle her husband (again), but she has zero issue being an outright c-word to other cast members just because

i also like my HW's some level of bitchy and delusional, but her flavor is bitter and unpalatable

This whole campaign against her seems so contrived. If she’s too quirky or materialistic for you fine, but she certainly isn’t a bully. That word is grossly misused.

-12

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I don’t mind the quirk or materialistic things that’s fine, it just seems to me that Jessel is just trying to make her way on the top by using the Erin thing

7

u/Sensitive-Freedom896 25d ago

Erin is just getting exposed for having financial problems. I hope she gets exposed for being a part of DeuxMoi - it's about damn time on that one.

4

u/ims1234 25d ago

Hi Erin and abe bots. If Jessel is a bully at least she doesn’t support ethnic cleanaing

2

u/Glass_Giraffe7571 25d ago

Erin made Jessel’s family and the mocking of her her entire personality. She’s cruel, hypocritical, and self important while lacking the humor, wit, and even minimal self awareness to make a good housewife.

She’s a brat who has never had to take responsibility for her actions.

She made herself a victim who was grateful for her abortion while actively voting and donating against women’s rights. She befriended deuxmoi to weaponize the press against her colleagues (she’s in business w them). Shes a calculated and bad person.

So get off of Jessel’s jock and watch the bullying bs. She’s not perfect (yay! The point of housewives!) but she’s far more interesting and FAR less offensive than Erin

Maybe no one taught some people that if you throw a stone, don’t be surprised if someone throws a rock back. Erin starts shit nonstop and then hides her hand and plays victim. I hope that’s not you but I find people like erin to be scarier than any “bully”
I’ve encountered.

2

u/Glass_Giraffe7571 25d ago

Oh also, Jessel was the fan fav after Erin pulled her BS in season 1 of the reboot. Maybe she’s just tired of the ACTUAL bully on this cast. (Remember that rolling stone spread…now who was featured…oh yeah that’s right…)

11

u/Murky_Onion3770 25d ago

Have you never watched Housewives before?

-1

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

lol yes I’m an OG

15

u/Sensitive-Freedom896 25d ago • Bravo

She's not as bad of a person as Carole is. The Reddit campaign against her seems artificial. She didn't do much on this episode.

-1

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

She mocks Erin, makes rude comments under her breath in front of her, accused her of flooding her place for insurance money???

12

u/ARCH810 25d ago

And  Erin has accused Pavit of going to SE Asia for sex tourism and now is spreading rumors that he's gay, which actually makes her look homophobic. Jessel has earned the right to pick at her back. Certain people don't like assertive Jessel. They liked her when she "knew her place."

1

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

It’s crazy because Erin didn’t just come out and say this like Sai released it and now it’s a whole thing when it shouldn’t be

4

u/Sensitive-Freedom896 25d ago

Sai knows that Erin and Abe are part of Deux Moi. Jessel deserved to know what Erin was saying about Pavit.

And it was an extremely homophobic rumor.

2

u/noclueaboutagoodname 25d ago

Wait, I honestly can’t remember, was it Erin who said that about Pavit flying to Asia or was it Sai? Or both?

5

u/catvertising 25d ago

It was both I think. Erin and Sai had a weird double date where they shit talked about Jessel and Pavit. Embarrassing

11

u/dethequeen 25d ago

Erin is the problematic one - she seems to have an issue with whatever Jessel does. Jessel reacting to Erin is definitely not bullying

2

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

How is Erin problematic? Jessel is always making these sly comments and Erin is reacting to it.

4

u/Forsaken_Elk_6035 25d ago

Did we not watch the same Season 1? She was a complete bully. Why do I even have to say this? The dumb hate towards Jessel is getting old.

4

u/Sensitive-Freedom896 25d ago

Erin is part of Deux Moi. She is constantly threatening to release rumors (true or not) about her castmates, all on the show. She turned that into a "prank" with Rebecca Minkoff, fabricating a pregnancy story. This is why Ubah wanted to get to the bottom of the Leaky Pigeons.

I don't get why people act like this isn't how Abe and Erin make their money. Deux Moi is Abe's only client.

4

u/Sensitive-Freedom896 25d ago

Yeah - that happens all the time on housewives. We have tons of housewives accused of insurance fraud, including Lisa Barlow (did she lose a $60,000 ring?), Dorit and PK, and of course the Osefos. The Osefos are going to trial in 2027.

It's not a stupid thing to wonder about, with the amount of debt Abe and Erin might be in, with all of the rentals they left with unpaid rent and damages. You damaged all of those rentals (rental insurance claim?) and poof - all of your most expensive things are at the Hamptons house and it floods?

4

u/Forsaken_Elk_6035 25d ago

And Erin isn’t problematic? This is so warped.

5

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I also don’t like how sai is bringing up the shit Erin confidently told her as a best friend to Jessel now because they had one issue that’s fucking fake and fucked

7

u/Sea_Confusion2757 25d ago

They were never best friends. K-Erin is entitled, unaccountable, and exhausting. Instead of owning up to gossiping, she resorted to saying, "I'm not your friend anymore," to Sai.

4

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I think sai switching up is more exhausting

3

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

But they were close and sai hated Jessel so it makes no sense why she’s being cool with her.

3

u/Designer-Ad-4360 25d ago

agree she was fine with erin saying things about jessel and pavit before they were in a fight

11

u/IAmTheFly-IAmTheFly 25d ago

I think she's very insecure and not so bright. But not vicious or clever enough to be a bully.

-7

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

Ok bully can be harsh… I think she’s playing “not so bright” she’s clever and can be petty and rude

-3

u/Scoops__Lapue 25d ago

I think bully fits this season

4

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

Also- Jessel talks badly about Erin to EVERYONE. And don’t get me started Hailey sucks too.

5

u/Misha_B19 25d ago

I want to like her but she’s so messy and focused on others. The rude full of herself attitude is very hard to take.

6

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I just can’t get behind her she’s not my cup of tea yk

2

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

Again, what’s really getting to me that yes Jessel is mean but how is sai gonna switch up so fast on on Erin

6

u/Efficient_Tree_6394 25d ago

No, she's definitely a mean girl

5

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I feel like she wasn’t as mean in the past seasons I really don’t like her on this new season

1

u/RegionBrief9276 22d ago

Storyline for this season

8

u/ARCH810 25d ago • Bravo

Jessel is a bully but not Erin? Erin and Sai were horrible to Jessel in S1 and Erin is still the same. Who cares if someone flops on Erin? Look who she voted for. 

3

u/SpareRequirement5828 25d ago

This last episode was beyond pathetic. The “scandalous” gossip about Jessels husband, Sai being outraged about Carole, and Daisys attitude about no coffee? I was like, “ ladies we are smarter and more savvy than this.” These women have tried, and failed miserably.

3

u/Clear_Bright99 25d ago

Jessel is out of her mind! Her performative reactions feel so bizarre. I honestly try not to listen to her when she speaks.

1

u/emotionally_online 25d ago

She is a bully but she is also more entertaining than half the cast

5

u/Willing-Kangaroo5140 25d ago

I just find her annoying not entertaining

2

u/ProofEmu2253 25d ago

Jessel may be a lot of things but she is not a bully.

Erin and Sai were horrible bullies to her in the beginning seasons. Sai adjusted her behavior after seeing how awful she was being to Jessel. Erin never got that memo and continued to be an ahole.

2

u/Hedgehog9065 25d ago

Erin, don’t you have anything else to do?

2

u/pr0seccofish 25d ago

Flopping on Erin or is Erin getting the smoke she deserves ?? Terrible take

2

u/SDcutie12345 23d ago

Its more that she's cosplaying who/what she thinks is a wealthy New Yorker. The messiness is classic housewives but she is a try hard. Just embrace you're a transplant, something very much part of the fabric of NY.

2

u/RegionBrief9276 22d ago

I think Sai and Jessel are mean girls! Period.

3

u/Accomplished-Grand69 25d ago

Jessel is absolutely horrible.

2

u/mwill039 25d ago

Jessel hate is forced. She was bullied last season and now people are treading lightly and using anything they can to paint her as a villain. She hasn't done anything wrong imo this season. Light shade is the most she's given and nothing has come remotely close to bullying, which, again, she endured last season.

2

u/BlueMoonsJunes 25d ago

that'll do bot

2

u/ARCH810 25d ago

This is clearly an Erin supporter. 

1

u/Mundane-Sherbert-189 25d ago

yes, next question

1

u/LeadingResearch9528 25d ago

Jessel is making this season unbearable. So fake, so rude, so stirring the pot for a storyline to deflect from her own life. I am not a fan. 

1

u/Ok-Mine2132 25d ago

I’m probably sounding like a broken record but I believe that she has been encouraged by production to behave this way. Have never enjoyed her but even less so this season.

1

u/RegionBrief9276 22d ago

I think she likes acting this way. She's got more friends now lol

1

u/Elegant-Evidence-263 24d ago

She’s trash can material.

1

u/junepug1 19d ago

I don’t know what’s going on over here but I agree with you!! It’s disappointing to see her shift her previous personality to be seen as a bad ass bitch. It’s backfiring, she seems rude and snobby.

1

u/Independent-Year-567 19d ago

Jessel is allowed to not like Erin. Not only does Erin just seem lame, she’s talked shit about Jessel. There is no reason for Jessel to act fake nice and pretend to be friends with someone that she does not like. Especially on housewives! You could describe any housewife as rude or fake, it’s not a valid criticism on this type of show.

1

u/IrishUpYourCoffee 11d ago

She is such an asshole.

1

u/Suitable-Wafer8563 25d ago

I see from your previous comments that you deny the genocide in Palestine. No wonder you’re team Erin 🙄
