Owning Manhattan's Jess Emily Taylor brands Netflix show 'incredibly stressful' as she lifts the lid on behind-the-scenes drama with 'jealous' cast mates

Owning Manhattan star Jess Emily Taylor has opened up about the tensions between the cast on the new Netflix show, revealing 'jealousy and insecurity' bubbled away behind-the-scenes.

The Serhant agent, 35, spoke candidly about a backstage rift in a video uploaded to her TikTok earlier this week, in which she recalled how 'incredibly stressful' the experience had been.

Besides having no budget for clothing and being unsure how to act in front of the camera, Jess let slip that one of the biggest struggles was not letting the other agents get to her.

'There are a lot of cast members and with that comes a lot of… I'll say jealousy and insecurity,' she said.

'People would constantly be asking how much are you filming and what are you doing, I did this, I did that. I did this with Ryan, I was there 10 times today.

'And just trying to ignore all the noise and stay in your lane… frankly, I didn't let it get to me, but I could see it winding some people up.'

Jess, who didn't name any of her cast mates by name, added: 'I had to really step above it and be like I'm filming what I'm filming, who knows how this is going to get edited, but I'm just going to do my best and we'll see how it ends up.'

DailyMail.com previously reported tensions behind the scenes had reached boiling point off camera, with Jonathan Nørmølle, Jade Shenker and Chloe Tucker Caine among cast members embroiled in bitter spats.

After the season launched on Netflix on June 28, Jonathan, 27, made it clear that he had no regrets about his actions on the series, which saw him fired by Ryan, 40, in the final episode.

He also claimed that he purposefully set himself up to get fired so that he could get out of his contract.

Insiders recently told DailyMail.com that many of the agents had concerns about Jonathan joining Serhant in the first place.

'Not only was his conduct with others a cause for concern, but some believe he had inflated his level of experience before joining the company,' one insider claimed.

Elsewhere, a second source revealed that Jonathan has retaliated against Jade's recent claim that he is 'fake' by telling everyone she was not even supposed to star on the show.

'He keeps reminding everyone that Jade wasn't even part of the original cast,' a second insider revealed. 'There was another agent who ended up dropping out and that is when Jade got to join the show.

'Jonathan thinks she just wants her 15 minutes of fame and believes she hasn't even done as much of the real estate sales as she claims.'

Meanwhile, Chloe blasted Jade on Instagram after the latter revealed to DailyMail.com that she had blocked her co-star for allegedly trolling her on TikTok.

'You guys saw five minutes of something that has being going on for months at this point,' the new mom fumed in a reaction video posted to Instagram. 'And you guys think I'm shady?'

Chloe then went on to post screenshots of the pair's recent phone calls as she clapped back: 'Really??? We aren't close friends right now? This is how many times we've talked in the past 48 hours alone...

'Fool me once, shame on me. Fool me twice?! (I don't remember the end of this saying but you get the gist!!!) FAME HUNGRY AF, ALWAYS WAS.'

The successful broker then went on to claim that she was the one who introduced Jade to the person that helped her secure a $42 million building that first helped her become a Serhant agent.

Jess didn't name who out of her Owning Manhattan cast mates she was referring to

Chloe Tucker Caine recently took to Instagram to publicly voice her anger after Jade Shenker accused her of being a troll on TikTok

Jade was quick to hit back with a string of rebuttals on her Instagram stories, while also leaving comments directly under Chloe's posts as she appeared to remain unbothered by her estranged friend's claims.

Chloe later found herself embroiled in an online scuffle with another former employee.

Former assistant Lindsey Welch had been a source of conflict for Chloe and fellow agent Jordan March, after the latter hired the assistant shortly after Chloe chose to part ways with her.

The issue led to a heated conversation between Chloe and Jordan in the second episode of the series before they later squashed the beef.

However, the comments made about Lindsey appear to have angered the staffer who wrote on Instagram: 'Put me on a pod too since you pushed the narrative that you 'fired me' when the truth is we did not work out because you were an incompetent agent.

'Also failed to mention you asked me to come back via text but go off.'

She then added: 'Let's set the record straight, I taught myself everything I know through trial and error - because no one poured into me.

'Across Chloe and Jordan's Team it was me behind $59,000,00+ sales that went to marked. I was accredited for nothing.'

She continued: 'It was extremely hurtful - especially seeing other being rewarded for mediocrity. It took me over a year to grieve and heal from that disappointment. I took it on the chin and have since started over from scratch as a solo agent.'

Chloe snapped back on Instagram and wrote: 'Let's nip this in the bud now since people love to come out of the woodwork to try and spin the story to get their 5 minutes. Un-f**king-believable.'
