“Real Housewives of New York City”
There’s going to be a major blowout between two of the “Real Housewives of New York City” cast members during Season 9, episode 2. Bravo

We’re just two episodes deep into Season 9 of Bravo’s “Real Housewives of New York City,” and things are already getting tense. Drama over LuAnn de Lesseps’ fiance Tom D’Agostino’s play boy past has divided the cast and it’s not getting better anytime soon.

Previews for Season 9, episode 2 show LuAnn and Sonja sitting down to hash out their differences. The conversation takes a turn for the worse when Sonja, who claims that she and Tom were lovers before he got engaged to her “RHONY” co-star, makes a few uncouth comments about LuAnn not making it “down the aisle.” LuAnn won’t stand for it, bringing up other rumors Sonja’s reportedly been spreading about her being angry with cast mate Dorinda Medley for facilitating her meeting Tom.

“Yeah, what kind of friend introduces you to a player like that?” Sonja asks, standing by her comments (via ET Online). “She knew! She knew what he does. He goes out with very young, tall girls, or he goes out with washed-up play-bunnies.”

Although the preview for Wednesday’s episode suggests otherwise, Dorinda previously told E! that Season 9 of “RHONY” would be about reconciliation. She promised that relationships that suffered in Season 8 would be renewed in Season 9. Dorinda also told E! that the group would finally come together after some serious separation.

“This season..people reconcile the relationships that maybe went wrong last year,” she said ahead of the Season 9 “RHONY” premiere. “New friendships are made, and it’s not such a bifurcated group. Last year, I felt there was Team A and Team B and if you were Team B, you couldn’t be friends with Team A. You’re going to see a lot more crossover and much more interaction with people you wouldn’t expect.”

Don’t take that as a sign that all’s well in the Big Apple, though. There’s still plenty of drama to come this season on “RHONY” and not all of it has to do with LuAnn and Tom’s relationship. Ramona Singer, who’s been on the cast since the show premiered, told E! that viewers should expect some serious blowouts, the biggest of which will be between herself and Bethenny Frankel.

“Well, Bethenny and I have probably the most...explosive fight ever,” she said. “I never, ever in my life had a situation with that with any girlfriend...it kind of tortured my soul a little bit and you’ll have to see what happened. It was pretty crazy. Pretty crazy,” she said.

Tune in to “RHONY” Wednesdays at 9 p.m. EDT on Bravo for all that and more.
