Sai took a verbal swipe at Rebecca Minkoff, who is set to join the show in the new season 15, which is set to premiere later this year.
Sai shared her thoughts on Rebecca in a viral clip that was shared by journalist Gibson Johns on Instagram on Wednesday.
The radio panel appeared to be on a commercial break, but kept talking into their microphones.
Sai revealed that they were currently filming season 15 of the show.
“Has it been good? Stressful? How is Rebecca?” asked another woman on the panel.
Sai gave a brief pause and appeared to consider her answer before speaking.
“She’s nice. She’s really, really nice, but kind of boring, to be honest,” Sai revealed.
“People are trying to take her down, but she’s unresponsive,” she continued.
“Reminder, we are being recorded guys, so don’t say anything you don’t want,” the producer chimed in.
Sai looked shocked as the cameras zoomed into her face.
“Oh okay,” she said before the clip ended.
Fans of the Bravo show reshared the clip onto social media.
“Sai thought her mic was off,” they captioned the post.
“Hopefully after this clip, it won’t be so boring!” replied a fan.
“Maybe just what we needed to spice things up a bit lol,” added another.
“Boom the season about to amp up,” said a third.
CLAPPING BACK
A user on X, formerly Twitter, shared a screenshot of what appeared to be Rebecca’s direct response.
“Well – if not bashing women is boring, I’ll take that as a compliment,” she wrote in a social media message.
Underneath she added a kissing emoji.
Rebecca was announced as the latest addition to the RHONY cast in April.

Rebecca will be joining the cast of the rebooted Real Housewives series, according to Deadline.
The star has been spending time on set over the past few months and getting close to her cast mates.
She will join Jenna Lyons, Brynn Whitfield, Erin Lichy, Sai De Silva, Jessel Taank, and Ubah Hassan on Season 15 of RHONY.
DIVIDED FANS
Several fans were divided about her new role online.
Some declared their excitement for Rebecca’s appearance, but others think she could cause problems for the show.
“I’m sorry but that’s ICONIC. The old girls are never coming back…and I’m not mad about it. I only miss Luann and Sonja anyway,” said one.
“I hope she brings style, not like Jenna Lyons,” added another.
“I have a few of her bags. I’m definitely interested to see how she and Jenna get along,” noted a third.
“NO. We don’t need to platform her,” a fourth demanded.
