Lisa Rinna denies Andy Cohen’s claims that she “regrets” her decision to leave the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
The longtime Bravoleb, Lisa Rinna is firing back via her rep at Andy’s claims that she immediately regretted her decision to quit RHOBH after the season 12 reunion. Lisa’s rep also addressed Andy saying that her exit from RHOBH was just a “pause.”
In a statement to HollywoodLife, a rep for Lisa Rinna said:
“[Lisa] is not ‘ON PAUSE, ‘ and there was never any discussion with anyone about that concept. Her contract ended, and the parties mutually agreed not to engage on a new one. She felt her time on the show had run its course, and she was more than happy to move on. And she still does not regret it.”
In Andy Cohen‘s new book ‘The Daddy Diaries: The Year I Grew Up,’ the Watch What Happens Live host spilled the tea on how and when Lisa Rinna told him she was leaving RHOBH.
The Real Housewives executive producer explains that after the season 12 reunion, Lisa texted him in the middle of the night, announcing that she would be leaving the show.
A few weeks later, Andy’s team told him that Lisa changed her mind and wasn’t planning on quitting the show anymore. However, the decision to move the show forward without Lisa for season 13 was already in place. Bravo decided that they would not scrap their plans and find a way to work Lisa into being a part of the show for season 13.
Andy revealed:
“I think she immediately, obviously immediately regretted what she had done, and that’s something that’s like if you’re moving that erratically and that sort of moment, you needed to be on pause, fired, quit. Like, whatever word you want to use, that needed to happen. I’m also shocked she didn’t publish the text.”
The WWHL host continued,
“I think [Lisa] should go on pause but absolutely come back. Feels like she has a toxic relationship with the show at this point, and taking a breath away could do everyone good.” We mutually agreed with Rinna that she should take a break from the show (this is a real pause)”.
In early January 2023, Lisa Rinna publicly announced that she would not return to RHOBH for season 13 after eight years on the show.
RHOBH is currently in the middle of filming for season 13. Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Sutton Stracke, Garcelle Beauvais, and Crystal Minkoff are all returning. They will be joined by newbie Annemarie Wiley. Kim Richards, Denise Richards, Camille Grammer, and Teddi Mellencamp have all filmed for season 13.
