Have Chanel Ayan and Lesa Milan put the “period dot” at the end of their friendship? 

In Page Six’s exclusive preview of Tuesday’s “Real Housewives of Dubai” reunion episode, the besties-turned-nemeses get into a heated screaming match about the infamous voice note that ignited much of the Season 2 drama. 

“Ayan, the second night in Bali, Stanbury brought up a voice note that you had previously played for her. You said in your confessional that Lesa knew it was going to come up at dinner,” host Andy Cohen says, acknowledging a clip — featuring Sara Al Madani talking about their castmates — sent by Milan, 35, to Ayan, 46, that the latter played for Caroline Stanbury behind the former’s back.

In the voice note, Al Madani, 38, is heard discussing drama that went down between Caroline Brooks and newbie Taleen Marie. 

Throughout the season, Milan has made it clear that the contents of the voice note are not as unnerving as Ayan’s decision to play it for her longstanding onscreen foe, Stanbury, 48.

In the sneak peek, Ayan and Milan loudly litigate whether the Mina Roe designer knew about the voice note before Stanbury discussed it during the aforementioned cast dinner. The Ayan Beauty founder insists that Milan was aware, an account that opposes her new adversary’s. 

Ayan insists that Milan knew about the audio clip before it was brought up by Caroline Stanbury during a cast dinner in Bali. Bravo Milan, however, strongly disagrees. Bravo

“Andy, do me a favor. Ask production,” Ayan tells Cohen, 56. “She knew about the voice note!” 

Before the “Housewives” honcho can act, Al Madani chimes in to share her take on the issue at hand. 

“When I told Lesa, ‘You knew about the voice note, why were you doing all of this?’ She said, ‘I didn’t,’” she says before turning to Milan, adding, “I asked all the producers. They said you knew.”

Marie, 37, then claims to have heard the same. “Producers all said that,” she asserts.

Milan then boldly asks Cohen to “ask the producer” from his earpiece, which he agrees to. 

At one point in the sneak peek, Cohen consults with production to get to the bottom of the issue. Clifton Prescod/Bravo He reports that a “supervising producer” agrees with Ayan’s assessment of the situation. Bravo

“The supervising producer said that Ayan told you before,” Cohen says, causing Ayan to stand up and shout in celebration. 

“She knew about it!” she exclaims, while Milan strongly disagrees. 

Last month — and prior to filming the reunion — Ayan told Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast that she was hoping to reconcile with Milan.

“She’s like family to me. You don’t throw your family away,” the model said at the time. “You just don’t.” 

It remains to be seen if the ladies were able to squash their beef. 

Part two of the “Real Housewives of Dubai” Season 2 reunion airs Tuesday at 9 p.m. ET on Bravo and streams the next day on Peacock.
