SoulCycle Allegedly Banned “Real Housewives” Star Over Disruptive Behavior

A new episode of the podcast Cult of Body & Soul reveals that a celebrity from Real Housewives of New York City was reportedly banned from a Manhattan SoulCycle location. According to a former instructor, the star was disruptive during a session, talking loudly and making out with her boyfriend in the front row.

The instructor stated, “There was a former Real Housewife who was banned because she kept talking loudly throughout the class, to the point of being disruptive.” They added that, after the incident, the studio manager approached the pair and emphasized the importance of following class rules, especially when seated in the front. The manager’s comments apparently led to a confrontation, with the star allegedly questioning the manager’s authority by asking, “Do you know who I am?” This ultimately prompted the manager to escalate the matter to corporate, resulting in a ban.

The star’s disruptive behavior and the subsequent ban are highlighted as part of the podcast’s broader discussion on SoulCycle’s past interactions with Real Housewives personalities, including notable episodes and controversies involving other celebrities like Bethenny Frankel. In the past, the studio has hosted events like charity spins, though some co-stars, such as Sonja Morgan and Ramona Singer, have skipped them, causing tension. Other stories involve public figures expressing dissatisfaction with the studio’s policies and clientele.

The podcast features insights from master instructors Janet Fitzgerald and Stevie Santangelo, as well as SiriusXM host John Hill. Neither SoulCycle nor representatives of the star involved have responded publicly to the claims.
