Bravo fans are about to meet a new face on season 2 of “Next Gen NYC.”
Kendall White joins the cast alongside fellow newcomer Liam Obergfell, but according to Bravo, she may already know more about the group’s secrets than anyone else. Her cast bio describes her as someone who is “always getting the tea,” despite maintaining a more reserved personality than some of her castmates.
With an Ivy League education, a successful career in tech, and friendships with several members of the cast, Kendall is stepping into the spotlight as one of season 2’s most intriguing additions.
Kendall White Is an Ivy League Graduate With Big Career Goals
According to her LinkedIn profile, Kendall graduated from Cornell University in 2019 with a bachelor’s degree in Communication and Media Studies.
Today, she works in the tech industry as a Senior Growth Strategy and Partnerships Manager, balancing a demanding career with life in New York City.
When speaking with Bravo Insider, Kendall revealed that she has even bigger ambitions for her future.
“I would love to be [like] Emma Grede one day,” she said. “She’s just a girl boss.”
In addition to professional success, Kendall also has personal goals she hopes to achieve over the next decade.
She told Bravo Insider that she hopes to be “doing something I’m passionate about” while eventually starting a family of her own.
“Hopefully having, like, two kids” is part of that vision, she shared.
The ‘Next Gen NYC’ Newbie’s Friendship With Liam Obergfell Goes Back Years
While viewers are just getting to know Kendall, one relationship on the show already runs deep.
Kendall and Liam have been close friends for years, with Kendall describing him as more like family than a typical friend.
“We’ve just gone through so much together and so many iterations of our lives,” she told Bravo Insider.
Their bond extends beyond New York City social events.
“I’ve spent Thanksgiving at his family’s,” she added.
The friendship is well documented on Kendall’s social media, where she frequently shares photos from their adventures and nights out together.
It was also Liam who ultimately connected Kendall to the rest of the “Next Gen NYC” cast.
Ariana Biermann Says Kendall White Became One of Her Favorite Castmates
Although Kendall entered the group through Liam, she quickly developed friendships with several other cast members.
One of those connections was with Ariana Biermann.
Speaking to Entertainment Weekly, Ariana revealed that she and Kendall became especially close while filming season 2.
“Kendall is great,” Ariana said.
“Her and I really bonded this season,” she continued. “She’s more reserved, but she’s such a sweet person and really just honestly one of my favorite people as well.”
That combination of being quietly observant while staying connected to everyone around her may be exactly what makes Kendall a standout addition to the cast.
After all, Bravo’s own description says she is “always getting the tea.”
Kendall recently celebrated the season 2 premiere alongside her castmates at Maison Close in New York City, where she joined returning stars Ariana, Riley Burruss, Emira D’Spain, Brooks Marks, Ava Dash, Gia Giudice, Georgia McCann, Charlie Zakkour, Shai Fruchter, and Hudson McLeroy.
