In a recent episode of Andy Cohen Live on SiriusXM, Andy Cohen delved into a heartfelt and candid discussion regarding Garcelle Beauvais’ exit from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH). As the season progresses, viewers are left wondering what led to her decision to leave the show, and Cohen opened up about his conversation with Garcelle to shed some light on the matter.
Andy Cohen, who has had a long-standing relationship with the reality TV star, revealed that he had a serious conversation with Garcelle before her appearance on Watch What Happens Live. He shared that their discussion took place after a challenging reunion taping. While Cohen refrained from divulging specifics about the reunion itself, he emphasized that Garcelle’s time on the show ended on a “not good place.”
He went on to say, “She had a reunion that you will see play out and I’m not gonna, you’ll just watch it, but she didn’t, it was not, she ended in a not good place.” However, Cohen also reassured listeners that Garcelle’s exit wasn’t all about The Real Housewives drama. There were deeper personal considerations at play.
The Watch What Happens Live host revealed that after the reunion, Garcelle and he had a private meeting in New York, about an hour before her live show. During this meeting, Garcelle opened up to him about the emotional and practical challenges she was facing. “She let me into where her head was at,” Cohen explained. “There was not only stuff with the show, but she’s got, the kids are entering their senior year.”
Cohen acknowledged how difficult it must have been for Garcelle to balance her public life with her responsibilities as a mother. He expressed his respect for the way she handled the situation, adding, “I really respect that fact that she really, it was one of the most real conversations.”
Ultimately, Cohen shared that the conversation ended on a note of clarity for Garcelle. She had come to the realization that her priorities needed to shift. As Cohen summarized, “It ended with her saying, ‘I’ve got to choose kind of my life.’”
