In the bustling city of New York, expect a whirlwind of drama. At least, that's the sentiment shared by Erin Lichy, a star from 'The Real Housewives of New York City.' 'There's a lot of laughter,' Lichy exclusively told The Post at Warner Brothers' Fall TV Season Celebration, discussing the upcoming season. 'There are some hilarious moments, but also parts where serious friendship issues arise and hopefully get resolved.'

Racquel Chevremont, another cast member, echoed Lichy's views, describing the season as 'intense.' Chevremont, who joined the show in Season 15, shared her initial feelings about being part of the group. 'I'm feeling great,' she said. 'Ask me again in a couple of weeks!' Regarding her relationship with her fiancée, Mel, being showcased on TV, Chevremont admitted, 'It's kind of crazy. We watch it together, and she's often horrified. She's just not used to seeing herself on camera.'

Looking ahead, fans might not see much of Lichy in public. 'Last night was so special!' she wrote on Instagram after her appearance on 'Watch What Happens Live' on October 8. 'Though distraction has been somewhat healing, I've been stepping back from public appearances. But when I was asked to come on WWHL with my mom in the audience to support breast cancer awareness month, knowing everyone in the audience would be a survivor, I was honored to wear pink and support.'

Earlier this month, Lichy revealed the passing of her father in a heartfelt tribute on social media. 'My heart and soul,' she began her post. 'My best friend, my courage, my strength, my superpower. How grateful I feel to have had you as a parent to guide me, to uplift me, to teach me how to live life to the absolute fullest. Your generosity is unmatched, and I have learned not only how many people you helped silently but what a lasting impression your kindness left.' She added, 'Knowing I won't see you laugh again or sing to me on the opposite end of the phone is a heartbreak I did not know existed, but somehow I know you are still there. You have given me the greatest gift, and I cannot feel anything but sincerely grateful to you for being my father. I love you forever, my Abba, my angel.'

Viewers are also witnessing Lichy navigate her mother Dorothy's breast cancer diagnosis in the current season—a battle Lichy recently revealed Dorothy has overcome. 'The battle is not over, but we're at the finish line,' Lichy shared in an emotional social media post in August. 'Feeling grateful is an understatement. Sending love to anyone who has been affected by breast cancer—either directly or indirectly. It's not easy either way, but turn to your community, and you will find what you need in the women around you. My heart is a little bit broken but very full all at once.'
