‘Next Gen NYC’ Star Ariana Biermann Warns Fans Her Behavior Gets ‘Worse’ as Season 2 Drama Escalates

Ariana Biermann is preparing viewers for what’s still to come on “Next Gen NYC” season 2.

The Bravo star admitted she isn’t sure how fans will react as the season continues, revealing that some of her biggest moments are still ahead. After starting the season newly single following her breakup with Hudson McLeroy, Ariana found herself navigating a growing connection with Liam Obergfoll while also dealing with longtime friend Charlie Zakkour.

Now, she’s asking fans to remember that what they’re seeing is the real her—even if she doesn’t always make the best decisions.

Ariana Biermann Says Fans Should ‘Brace’ for What’s Ahead

Speaking to Bravo Insider in July, Ariana reflected on how she’s coming across on screen and admitted she’s already thinking about viewers’ reactions.

“I hope that people just understand that I am living always very authentically, and I hope you can see my heart even though I might not always make the best decisions and I might not always say the best things,” Ariana said.

She added that speaking her mind has always been both a strength and a weakness.

“I hope that people can just always see that I am still staying true to who I am, and unfortunately, I always say exactly what I think in the moment, which definitely bites me in the ass.”

But according to Ariana, the biggest surprises haven’t even aired yet.

“It gets worse. My behavior,” she admitted. “I might be good and composed right now. It’s getting worse. I’ve forgiven myself. I hope you can too.”

Ariana’s Love Life Continues to Take Center Stage

Much of Ariana’s storyline this season has centered around her evolving relationship with Liam.

The pair have grown closer throughout season 2, with Liam asking Ariana on a date during episode 6. In the season trailer, the two are shown sharing a bed, while Charlie later adds another layer of drama by refusing to answer producers when asked if he hooked up with Ariana.

Elsewhere in the trailer, Ariana says she isn’t exclusively dating Liam before he later says he’s “being played” by someone.

Although neither Ariana nor Liam has confirmed where they stand today, Liam recently told Decider what first attracted him to the Bravo star.

“She’s just super chill, down to earth, and she’s got a great smile,” he said. “We had a good connection right off the bat.”

Away from the cameras, Ariana also revealed she’s taking things slowly with Hudson after the pair reconciled earlier this year.

“I think we’re not trying to jump the gun too much,” she told Bravo Insider. “But I think no matter what, he will always be an important person in my life.”

Ariana explained that they’re still working through the issues that led to their October 2025 breakup.

“I feel like that’s kind of why it’s a day-by-day thing, ’cause we want to get through the things, the reasons why I left. We broke up with each other, you know? That’s why it’s still up in the air in a way,” she said. “[We want to] see if we can do it, or if it wasn’t a long enough time. It was what, seven months apart or whatever? But we’ll see as time goes.”
