Riley Burruss’ ‘Next Gen NYC’ Co-Star Accuses Her Of Rolling Her Neck & ‘Accosting’ His Girlfriend + Riley Calls Out Racial Undertones: ‘It’s A Real Thing I Have To Go Through Every Day’

Riley Burruss is standing up for herself on the latest episode of Bravo’s Next Gen NYC.

The daughter of RHOA alum Kandi Burruss had an emotional exchange with her co-star Charlie Zakkour after he accused her of “accosting” his girlfriend by being rude and not introducing herself. In a playback of the incident he’s referring to, Riley is seen introducing herself to the girl and telling her, “Nice to meet you.” She adds, “I love when my friend’s girls ask my name. I’m his friend, you should be nice.”

After being confronted by Charlie in front of their fellow cast mates, Riley becomes emotional and begins to cry, pointing out that she hasn’t been rude or rolled her neck like Charlie claimed. While Charlie appears to get uncomfortable as race becomes an underlying factor, Riley stands 10 toes down on her stance.

In another clip, she calls her mother, who gives her a little sound advice. It didn’t take long for the moment to go viral on X as many viewers made it clear they’re Team Riley.
