Lisa Rinna Blames ‘Real Housewives’ Fans for Her Exit—So Congratulations, I Guess?

Buy Me A Coffee

Lisa Rinna has finally spilled the tea on why she really left The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills—and, plot twist, it wasn’t Bravo, it wasn’t the other Housewives, it wasn’t even her own dramatic antics. Nope, she says you (yes, YOU, the fans) drove her out. So if you ever wanted to put “Ran Lisa Rinna off reality TV” on your résumé, now’s your chance.

The 61-year-old actress—who has been throwing wine glasses and delivering meme-worthy one-liners since season five—said goodbye to the show after season 12 in early 2023. While the official statement claimed it was a “mutual decision,” Lisa has now revealed that mutual decision was more like, “I mutually decided y’all were too mean to me.”

While chatting on the Therapuss podcast (which, no, is not a podcast about emotionally complex cats, but should be), Lisa took a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the iconic chaos of her time on RHOBH. She covered everything from that infamous Amsterdam dinner (where glasses flew faster than Bravo contract renewals) to her feud with Kathy Hilton (which was basically a real-life game of “Who’s More Dramatic?”). But the juiciest tidbit? Why she really walked away.

Lisa vs. The Internet
Lisa explained that, back in the good ol’ days, Housewives were required to write blogs about each episode—kinda like a high school book report, but with more insults and passive-aggressive emojis. But then, the social media era arrived, and suddenly, every person with a Wi-Fi connection had an opinion about her. And guess what? A lot of them weren’t exactly fan club material.

“It got really difficult towards the end,” Lisa confessed. “People got way too comfortable behind their keyboards, saying anything they wanted. And by the end, I was like, ‘Wait a minute… am I the villain?!’” Spoiler: the internet thought yes.

Lisa went on to say, “The fans ran me off the show. It wasn’t Bravo. It wasn’t the other girls. The fanbase villainized me in a way that I just didn’t want to live like that anymore.”

Translation: The comments got way too spicy, and even Lisa—queen of stirring the pot—couldn’t handle the heat anymore.

No Comeback Tour for This Housewife
Despite fans flip-flopping between “Bring Lisa Back!” and “She’s the worst thing to ever happen to TV,” Rinna has officially shut down any dreams of a RHOBH comeback. “Life’s too short,” she said. “I’m not going to do this anymore. It’s too much.”

Lisa Rinna is out, the RHOBH drama continues, and somewhere, a social media troll is furiously typing, “We did it.”
