The Cut - Don’t Sit on Sai De Silva’s Bed

Even though she stars on The Real Housewives of New York City, Sai De Silva does not consider herself your traditional housewife: She’s also a content creator and a mother of two who has recently ventured into the world of podcasting. De Silva discusses the ever-evolving dynamics of female friendships on Harder Than We Thought, her podcast co-hosted with her best friend Angela Rogers, which premiered shortly after the new RHONY reboot on Bravo. “I always thought that I would have the same friends forever, but life doesn’t really work like that, and the older you get, it does get hard to allocate time towards everyone,” De Silva says. “Especially when you’re married, and you have kids, all of a sudden, you’re a wife, and now on top of that, I have all of my friends who want to hang out.”
