Kelly Dodd and Hubby Predict Andy Cohen and Bravo are Working on His Exit from the Network

Kelly Dodd thinks Andy Cohen should own up alleged drug use.

Kelly Dodd and her husband, Rick Leventhal, believe that Andy Cohen’s days with Bravo are numbered.

The Real Housewives of Orange County alum and her husband think that the Watch What Happens Live host is working with Bravo on his exit from the network.

On Rick and Kelly’s Daily Smash podcast, the two revealed that they believe this statement to be true, given the recent allegations against Andy Cohen.

Bravo stars come to Andy Cohen’s defense amid drug allegations

As previously reported, Brandi Glanville has made sexual harassment claims against Andy, while Leah McSweeney filed a lawsuit against Bravo and Andy, in which she claims the Real Housewives executive producer “snorts cocaine” with his favorite Housewives.

Rick, who is a former Fox News correspondent, shared:

“My prediction is he’s negotiating an exit right now. His agent and his lawyers are working with Bravo’s agent lawyers, NBCUniversal’s agent lawyers, and they’re coming up with a buyout. They’re going, ‘We can’t we can’t have this. We can’t.’ Because if it goes to trial, like, we’re gonna testify that he did or didn’t do drugs and they’re gonna call witnesses, and then they’re perjuring themselves if they lie.”

He continued: 

“It’s never going to trial. The lawsuit’s been filed. They’re gonna have to settle it. And in in the process of settling the lawsuit, Andy, my prediction, he’s gonna negotiate his exit from Bravo. That’s what I think is gonna happen.”

Kelly said, “[Rick]is always good at these. I told y’all this guy good at these [predictions].”

Despite Kelly and Rick’s theory, Andy Cohen isn’t going down without a fight. On Thursday, the WWHL host’s legal team fired off a letter demanding Leah retract her allegations or face going to court.

Andy Cohen’s legal team calls Leah’s allegations “baseless and false.”

“We demand that you immediately retract and withdraw all allegations relating to Mr. Cohen’s purported ‘cocaine use,’” the legal letter read.

The 55-year-old’s legal team continued, “Mr. Cohen never used cocaine with any cast member on any Real Housewives or with any other Bravo employee. The absence of any reasonable basis to make such allegations is confirmed by your pleading itself.”

Thoughts on this all? Do you think Bravo is planning Andy’s exit? Sound off in the comments!

Yet again this is nothing but Kelly trying to remind Bravo viewers that she thinks she's relevant. No one has believed anything that Kelly has said for years, much less anything Brandi or Leah have ever said. This is just another attempt for has-been's to try to get some Bravo money. The only thing that does surprise me about this, is that Kelly isn't part of the has-been's.

I like how this is worded to only include HW & Bravo employees only! Does that mean Kathy Griffin was telling the truth? If so, I would think TPTB from Bravo would want Andy gone. He would be considered a liability.

Maybe, but I do believe the cocaine allegations.
stuhunter March 12, 2024 - 10:23 am
Even if Cohen did/does use cocaine. It's his business as long as it doesnt affect his work place behavior. He didnt force coke on anybody, there is no housewife who claims that... other than the unreliable at best, Glanville who has a personal axe to grind.

If he did, DCS should come after him!! Not a responsible parent!!
HermanL22 March 19, 2024 - 1:54 pm
And I personally think that is where he is most scared (understandably). I think he'd be fine to not work, but this is indirectly hitting his kids too. This is a tough one, that's for sure

Please be right!!!!!

It's an interesting dichotomy how the collective "we" can despise the man for whom we are otherwise grateful, for bringing us a series which we have enjoyed for so many years. It's sort of like firing a chef whose food you love.

Yeah, but his ‘food’ has been tasting ‘off’ for some time now, so I’m good with it. ?

Maybe so but the power and fame went to his head a long time ago.

Wasn’t Scott Dunlop the original producer of the first RH show? Miss Cohen piggybacked off Dunlops OC with RHNY. I’ve never been a fan, stopped watching WWHL shortly after it began, his desperation to be part of the cool kids is palpable, not to mention the way he treats the HW at reunions, his disdain for these women is obvious and I have no respect for them allowing it. I take it for what it is, poorly scripted 45 mins with amateur actors for the purpose product placement and promotional consideration.

Nicely said! Especially the last sentence. ??

Kelly and her husband have zero credibility. I don't trust one word that comes out of their mouths.
Champagne Hangover March 11, 2024 - 4:30 pm
Why? ????
675309 March 11, 2024 - 5:26 pm
I have no idea who they are but why is their opinion an article?
HermanL22 March 19, 2024 - 2:23 pm
Well, she was a Housewife (OC), and he used to work for Fox News. They're married and throwing in their opinion on what is happening with Andy
675309 March 19, 2024 - 6:35 pm
Oh. Thanks. I should know not to question why they make these articles by now.....
HermanL22 March 20, 2024 - 8:57 am
hahaha Have to stay "relevant," right??? :)
Steve March 11, 2024 - 4:27 pm
With how he treats them, I am surprised more HW's have not moved against Andy. Of course, they signed up to be made into caricatures of real people and publicly ridiculed and humiliated on a regular basis, so I suppose it is something they really need and enjoy.

Hey Kelly...bitter, much? You're like a dog with a bone. let go, already. You're never coming back to BRAVO. You did it to yourself. Accept personal responsibility and move on, along with your "cuck" husband.

Didn’t Leah sue NYPD and win? She should let them take her to court, name the coke party participants and force them to talk under oath. She could get an even bigger payday than the one she used to start her hip hop clothing line. She’s crazy enough to do this, Miss Cohen might ought to bow out, stay home and raise those children he paid so much to get.

No doubt whoever had the stupid idea to keep hiring her should regret it. Same with Glanville. Exploit the mentally unstable reckless ones and it comes back to bite them.
Zap It March 11, 2024 - 12:48 pm
I think Kelly and Rick are right...Cohen will likely be gone soon.
Champagne Hangover March 11, 2024 - 3:45 pm
Rick is both intelligent and industry savvy. I know a lot of people might not agree with him politically and/or hate his wife, but dude knows how to read the tea leaves in the industry. Trust. He may not be right about the ultimate outcome but no doubt what he’s saying is at least on the table. I.e., whether they pull the trigger on AC or not, the gun is loaded. That option will absolutely be considered 100%.

Once again, blogs make stories out of a random comment that yours truly made (about a week ago). Another coincidinky? Maybe. I guess I should be flattered.

You should demand payment as a contributor. I coined the phrase Transchelle to identify a former FL and received comments that I should trademark it, LOL!
stuhunter March 12, 2024 - 10:24 am
I think Kelly and Rick need to find a new hobby. Neither oil them are ever coming back to BRAVO or any other show., Bothe were fired from their jobs because of their behavior. They need to move on
