Baby on the way! “Real Housewives of New York” star Erin Lichy is pregnant with her fourth child.
“It feels like adding another act to the circus! Work and life have been so busy that I haven’t really had a chance to even think about how it’ll change things, but I think it will be pretty seamless to be honest. Three vs. four kids doesn’t seem so scary,” Lichy told People magazine. She and her husband, Abe Lichy, are already parents to Levi, 9, Elijah, 4, and Layla, 7.
“I was out East with Abe and some friends when I suddenly became super sensitive to smells around me. That’s when I knew — I thought, ‘Damn. Here we go again,'” she told the outlet.
The Lichys have not found out the sex of their baby, but plan to in the coming weeks. The couple has been married since 2012.
RHONY Fans Are Excited for Erin Lichy

“Aww that’s awesome, congrats,” someone else said.
“Yassss!!! I love this! Congratulations to your beautiful family,” a third comment read.
“What a queen! Congrats and love to the whole fam,” a fourth Instagram user added.
Meanwhile, some fans were upset that the news broke before it aired on RHONY and expressed such grievances in the comments. However, Lichy confirmed that the teased pregnancy in the preview isn’t hers. She addressed such on her Instagram Stories.
“Been a rollercoaster past few months to say the least, but so happy my dad knew about this. He was so proud and happy. Been wanting to tell you all but with the election it didn’t feel right. Oh and btw, this has absolutely nothing to do with Rhony @bravoty episode tonight. Pure coincidence time wise. Thank you for all the love. Love you all!!” she wrote.
Erin & Abe Lichy’s Marriage Has Been a Storyline on RHONY Season 15
Erin and Abe Lichy’s marriage has been a focal point of season 15.
In the RHONY season 15 trailer, Lichy said to her husband, “You’ve been lying to me. That’s [expletive] up.” Then, during the second episode, she talked about her husband betraying her.
“There were some decisions that Abe made without discussing it with me. But the problem was that the truth came out right in the middle of me dealing with my mom and everything that we’re going through. So I wasn’t able to lean on him because he betrayed me and I was furious with him, and it just added so much more stress,” she said.
While chatting with Page Six on the outlet’s “Reali-Tea” podcast, Abe Lichy dove a bit deeper into what was behind the marital issues.
“We had a handbag business, which I think they show a clip of on the show. This was something that I left my white shoe law firm to start with Erin, and we put all our money into it, self-funded it, and it got to the point where we weren’t really making any money from it,” he explained.
“So we lost all our cash, and it was a very expensive MBA. I learned a lot. … We had no cash, and so we had all the debt from this business, and it was our business, not hers. I want to clear that up, because it’s not like I’m paying for her business, it was our business. And, so, it was just the aftermath of that,” he added.
