The man colloquially known as Abe the Babe on The Real Housewives of New York City has proven himself a worthy mender of fractured friendships.
Abe Lichy unwittingly helped his wife, Erin Lichy, iron things out with fashion icon Jenna Lyons while at Jessel Taank’s Clueless-themed birthday bash, as seen in Season 15, Episode 5. In the following episode, Erin expressed how much she appreciated Abe inserting himself into the drama to help the women reconcile, which was nothing short of a noble feat.
“It shows how much he loves me,” Erin said in her confessional in Season 15, Episode 6. “It’s just very touching to me.”

While getting ready for their Cinco de Mayo party, Erin thanked her husband, with whom she shares three children, for the “sweet” way he came to her defense. Because of Abe speaking up, Erin and Jenna were now back to texting on a near-daily basis.
“It’s really sweet that Abe spoke to Jenna, even though maybe I didn’t want him to do that at that moment,” Erin told producers in the recent episode. “It just shows that he’s going out of his way to be there for me.”
The gesture follows the “major shock” Erin confessed earlier this season when learning Abe sold “a good amount” of Bitcoin without ever consulting her. Perhaps Abe’s heroic efforts are a sign of things looking on the up and up between husband and wife.
