Olivia Flowers found Crystal Minkoff's behavior at BravoCon to be unimpressive. Reacting to Minkoff's statement about some stars being "rude" at the fan convention, the 31-year-old Southern Charm star took to Instagram and turned the tables on the Housewife. In a comment on E! News' post about Minkoff's remarks, Flowers stated, "I thought she was rude."
During her interview with E!'s Justin Sylvester and Adrienne Bailon on November 8th, Minkoff, who is currently 40 years old, expressed her surprise at the number of unfriendly faces she encountered at the Bravo event.
"I was shocked. I won't mention any names, but it happened in New York," stated Minkoff. When asked if she was referring to the original cast members of The Real Housewives of New York City (including Luann de Lesseps, Kelly Bensimon, Dorinda Medley, and Sonja Morgan) or the women featured in the rebooted season 14 (such as Sai De Silva, Brynn Whitfield, Ubah Hassan, Erin Lichy, and Jessel Taank), Minkoff responded with "both."
Minkoff encountered Jeff Lewis during her trip to Sin City. While speaking with E!, she referred to the season 13 premiere of RHOBH at the "Ask Andy" panel as the "best episode" showcasing her, as she remained silent throughout. Minkoff explained that Jeff Lewis is famous for mocking others and mentioned that she eventually received an apology from him, considering it a triumph.
Flowers did not provide additional details about her interaction with Minkoff, but she actively avoided Taylor Ann Green, a member of her own cast. When asked if there was a possibility of repairing their damaged friendship after Green kissed Flowers' ex Austen Kroll, Flowers responded, "I don't know. I mean, this BravoCon, I'm not talking to Taylor and Madison [LeCroy] is my good friend, so stranger things have happened."
Green, 28, told Us in her own interview that her drama with Flowers had been “tabled” after Green’s brother died in June and Olivia lost her brother in January.
