Andy Cohen and NeNe controversies

Andy Cohen Says NeNe Leakes Lawsuit Is “in the Past” as He Praises Her “Very Positive” Bravo Return

by Roxanne May 6, 2026

Andy Cohen is making it clear he’s ready to move forward as NeNe Leakes officially returns to Bravo.

NeNe is set to appear on Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th, a special edition of the franchise celebrating 20 years of Housewives history. The project marks her first time back on the network since leaving The Real Housewives of Atlanta in 2020.

Speaking to Vulture, Andy explained why bringing NeNe back felt like the right move.

“As we looked back on 20 years, it felt like doing something with her would be really nice for the fans, and she really wanted to do it,” he said. He also described their recent experience working together as “very positive.”

Andy didn’t shy away from acknowledging NeNe’s impact on the franchise.

He called her “integral to the show and its success,” pointing to her role as one of the original Atlanta Housewives who helped shape the series into a cultural force.

When it came to NeNe’s 2022 lawsuit against Bravo, Andy, and the production companies behind the show, he kept his response brief.

“I can’t speak to that lawsuit, but it’s in the past.”

The lawsuit, which included allegations of racism and a hostile work environment, was dismissed without prejudice just four months after it was filed.

As for whether this return could lead to NeNe rejoining RHOA full time, Andy was more guarded.

“You know what? We’ve worked so hard to get a cast on Atlanta that is cohesive and makes sense and that we love and the fans love,” he said. “We want to be at the level that Atlanta used to be, and we are finally there.”

“That’s what I’m focusing on right now,” he added.

NeNe, for her part, has also hinted she is open to coming back under the right circumstances.

“If they called, I would answer,” she said earlier this year. “I would need to hear what they have to say.”

She also made it clear that she’s moved on from past issues.

“We have put a lot of things behind us that some people know, some people don’t know. We’ve ended all of those things, we’ve moved forward.”

For now, her return to Bravo is official, but whether it leads to something bigger is still an open question.

Who Is Kelsey Swanson’s Older, Affluent Boyfriend on RHORI?

RHORI’s Kelsey Swanson Shades Dorit Kemsley’s Finances, Says “I Don’t Want to End Up Like Her”

Kelsey Swanson didn’t hold back when asked about money, relationships, and homeownership, and her answer quickly turned into one of the more pointed moments on Watch What Happens Live.

What started as a simple question about her feud with Rosie DiMare took a sharp turn when Kelsey brought up Dorit Kemsley, making it clear she views the situation playing out on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills as a warning, not a goal.

During the segment, Andy Cohen questioned Kelsey’s comments about Rosie’s home, pointing out that Kelsey herself doesn’t own property in her name.

“Why are you speaking on shading the size of Rosie and her husband’s house when you don’t even have a house in your name?” Andy asked.

Kelsey didn’t hesitate, and her response immediately raised eyebrows.

“Listen, do I want to end up like Dorit?” she said.

She continued by explaining her perspective on financial independence within relationships.

“What happens when your man stops paying your mortgage?”

Kelsey made it clear she doesn’t see being financially tied to a partner as something to aspire to.

“It’s not a flex to be put on a house. I really don’t care.”

Her comments come as Dorit’s finances have become a major topic this season on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, with cast members openly questioning her spending and reports circulating about issues tied to her home. Dorit has previously said that certain financial responsibilities were handled by her estranged husband, Paul “PK” Kemsley, and that she was not aware of everything happening behind the scenes.

Dolores Catania "Shocked" by Teresa Giudice's Openness to Reconcile with Joe and Melissa: "Honestly, This Is All Very Big News to Me"

Dolores Catania Says She Was ‘Benched’ by Producers and Shut Out of Major Cast Trip on Rhode Island Housewives

Dolores Catania says she was frustrated by how little she was used during her time around the cast of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, especially when it came to missing a major cast trip.

Speaking on the podcast Two T’s in a Pod, hosted by Tamra Judge and Teddi Mellencamp, the hosts praised Rhode Island’s strong debut. Teddi noted that the show became one of Bravo’s biggest multi-platform launches since 2024, pulling in about 2.7 million viewers in its first week.

Dolores, who is best known for The Real Housewives of New Jersey, explained that her role on the Rhode Island set was far more limited than she expected.

“I was bitter,” she admitted. “When I got there, they didn’t let me film as much. They kept me on the bench. I was the wellness team. I got every phone call, every scene.”

She went on to say she was especially confused about not being included in the cast trip featured in episode six. According to Dolores, even cast members questioned the decision.

“Liz was so upset. It didn’t even make sense for me not to be there,” she said, suggesting that her absence wasn’t organic to the group dynamics.

Teddi offered a possible explanation: production may have held Dolores back because of her ongoing role on New Jersey, which was expected to return. In other words, producers might not have wanted her too deeply integrated into a different franchise.

Still, Dolores pushed back on that idea. She believes there was room for her to contribute more, even in a limited “friend of” capacity.

“I could have been more of a friend and done more on the show,” she said.

Rulla Breaks Silence on NDA Scandal and Reveals Why She Can’t Trust Jo Ellen

The Real Housewives of Rhode Island star Rulla Nehme Pontarelli is opening up about where she stands with Jo-Ellen Tiberi after a tense season filled with personal drama and trust issues.

In an interview with Parade, Rulla said the two are currently keeping things civil, but that doesn’t mean their relationship is repaired.

“We’re cordial,” Rulla revealed. “Jo-Ellen and I are cordial. Throughout everything that we may have seen and not yet seen, I chose to try to be amicable and take the high road despite everything that was being thrown my way that maybe was not so nice.”

Much of the tension stems from how photos connected to her husband Brian’s affair were handled within the group. Rulla explained that while she appreciated the truth coming out, she was hurt by how it spread.

“It’s not the fact that she was the one to sort of expose or present the pictures. I was actually very grateful for that… I wasn’t grateful that those photos circulated around the group before they even got to me… I would never do that to her if the situation were reversed.”

Even with that perspective, Rulla admitted the situation changed how she sees Jo Ellen.

“I can’t trust her at this stage,” she said. “I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to trust her, unfortunately.”

Rulla also addressed the legal situation involving her husband and the woman tied to the affair, pushing back on how the story has been portrayed.

“So, unfortunately, I can’t speak too much to it,” Rulla shared. “The one thing that I can say is the NDA is a result of something else that was going on because she had been a minority owner. He had made her another minority owner in the business. So it had to do with business matters, and a prior issue, not a don’t talk because of the show situation. So that’s sort of been taken out of context.”

She also responded to a rumor brought up on the show by Alicia Carmody, which claimed Brian had cheated on his first wife with Rulla when that wife was Alicia’s Spanish teacher.

“I was like, Alicia, are you kidding me? You couldn’t have asked me like two years ago?” she said. “So, I actually know the Spanish teacher and admire her, and we get along very well. I had come along, but a year-and-a-half, two years after Brian was already divorced… so that is a rumor. It is completely false. And anybody that knows us can verify that that was never true. No, he did not cheat with me. And I did not participate in breaking up that marriage.”

The drama adds more context to what viewers are seeing play out on The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, where personal issues are quickly becoming group conflicts and trust between cast members is starting to break down.

Dolores Catania Reveals Why RHONJ Was Paused and Issues Warning to RHORI Cast About ‘Trolls’

by Roxanne May 5, 2026
written by Roxanne

Dolores Catania is opening up about what really led to the pause of The Real Housewives of New Jersey and she is making it clear that off camera drama played a major role.

In a recent interview with Virtual Reali-Tea, Dolores pointed to cast members engaging with outside voices online as a turning point for the franchise.

“People have learned their lesson, I would hope, with talking to outside influence, trolls, and things like that, and using outside influence to go after the Housewives on the cast,” Dolores said. “I think basically NBC was like, ‘All your fighting’s gone off camera. Why are we going to even bother with the reunion at this point?’”

Her comments add context to the long rumored issues behind the scenes. While viewers saw tension play out on screen, much of the real conflict had reportedly moved to social media, fan accounts, and private communication. That shift made it harder for producers to capture authentic interactions on camera, which is the core of the Housewives format.

After its most recent season, RHONJ was put on pause for nearly two years. The break came amid heavy cast division and ongoing disputes that extended beyond filming. Now, Bravo has confirmed the series is returning, with Dolores alongside Teresa Giudice and Melissa Gorga.

At the same time, Dolores has been spending time around the cast of The Real Housewives of Rhode Island, where she already has personal connections. Based on her experience, she made sure to give them a direct warning about repeating the same mistakes.

“I couldn’t stress to [the RHORI] girls enough: ‘Don’t do it. You will ruin your show. You have something so good here,’” she said. “I know these [girls] will never do that.”

Her advice highlights a bigger issue across reality TV right now. When cast members rely too much on outside influence or try to control narratives off camera, it can undercut the authenticity that makes these shows work in the first place.

For Dolores, the message is simple. Keep the drama real, keep it on camera, and let the story unfold naturally.

Andy Cohen Confirms RHOM “Will Be Back” After Pause as Fans Question Show’s Future

Andy Cohen is offering some reassurance to fans of The Real Housewives of Miami after the network hit pause on the franchise.

During a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live, Cohen was asked directly about the show’s future by Southern Hospitality star Michols Peña.

“It’ll be back,” Andy said confidently. “If it was my decision, it will be going all the time.”

The comment comes after Bravo confirmed earlier this year that RHOM would not be moving forward with a new season for now, leaving fans wondering if the show was quietly being shelved. Reports at the time pointed to lower ratings as a factor in the decision, despite strong fan engagement online.

During the same conversation, Peña spoke about why the Miami franchise holds a unique place within Bravo’s lineup, especially when it comes to representation.

“Just to be able to have a sense of community where being one of the few Hispanic people on Bravo, just to be able to share that side of my story — help others to connect,” he explained. “For example, watching Miami because they have a lot of Hispanic cast members was something that I connected with a lot, too.”

The most recent season of RHOM featured cast members including Alexia Nepola, Larsa Pippen, Lisa Hochstein, Guerdy Abraira, Julia Lemigova, and Stephanie Shojaee, with fan favorites like Adriana de Moura and Marysol Patton also appearing.

After news of the pause broke, several cast members took to social media to highlight the importance of the show, particularly its cultural impact and diverse representation.

While there’s still no official timeline for when cameras will pick back up, Andy’s latest comments suggest that Miami isn’t gone for good, and that a return is still very much on the table.

Teddi Mellencamp Accuses PK of Lying About RHOBH, Dorit Fires Back: “She Knows the Truth”

Teddi Mellencamp is weighing in on Paul “PK” Kemsley’s recent claims about The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and her comments are not sitting well with Dorit Kemsley.

As Season 15 reunion drama unfolds, PK has been speaking publicly about his split from Dorit, including suggesting that the show “created scenarios that did not happen.” That claim was quickly addressed on Teddi and Tamra Judge’s Two T’s in a Pod podcast.

“I’m sure production, and I know he’s good friends with executive producer Alex Baskin, is really loving that,” Teddi said. “I’m gonna call bullsh*t.”

She went on to question multiple moments from the show that she believes were clearly real.

“What about that crying episode when their home was burglarized, and Dorit was hugging Mauricio Umansky? Was that created? Was your Buca di Beppo room created? Was your non-alcoholic champagne created? Was your wedding dress line created? Was Beverly Beach created?”

Teddi also addressed PK’s comment about not recognizing Dorit anymore and added her own interpretation, suggesting that it could be because Dorit has changed significantly over time.

She implied that it could either be due to “too much plastic surgery” or simply that Dorit has changed as a person, a remark that many viewers saw as a personal dig rather than commentary on the relationship.

The remarks did not go unnoticed by Dorit, who responded publicly and made it clear she was disappointed.

“Sad to see someone who once called me a friend go this low,” Dorit wrote.

A post shared by Comments By Bravo (@commentsbybravo)

Their history goes back years, with Dorit introducing Teddi during Season 8. While the two had ups and downs, they eventually became part of the Fox Force Five alongside Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, and Lisa Rinna.

Now, that friendship appears to be strained again.

After a fan called out Teddi’s comments, Dorit doubled down on her response.

“What makes it even more disappointing is she knows the truth and chose to say it anyway,” she wrote.

Dorit also addressed a specific moment Teddi referenced.

“That applies for both my face and the group hug, which was nothing more than an innocent moment shared among close family friends after a deeply traumatic event.”

With tensions rising both on and off screen, it’s clear the reunion drama is extending far beyond the show itself.

Bozoma Saint John Calls Out Andy Cohen for “Skeptical” Reaction to Her Career, Says He Was “Unaware.” Andy Responds!

Bozoma Saint John is speaking out after a moment during the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion left her feeling questioned, and she’s now directly addressing Andy Cohen.

After part two of the reunion aired, Boz took to social media to call out Andy’s reaction when her career as a chief marketing officer came up during the discussion.

“Andy Cohen, come here. I’m calling you to the front of the class. Okay, did you really make this face when we were at The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion and were talking about this?” she said in a video, before showing the clip in question.

In that moment, Andy asked, “It’s not meant to be for a long period of time?” referring to the typical tenure of a CMO role.

Boz responded during the reunion by explaining the reality of the position.

“Usually it is intended to be a long time, but what happens is that a lot of times the blame of any company’s failure or its issues with the stock falls on a CMO,” she said.

Still, she felt the exchange needed more context and addressed it head-on in her video.

“Now I know you couldn’t mean to have a skeptical look, right? Because there have been plenty of white papers and think pieces that have been written about the tenure of the CMO and the high pressure job that it is,” she said, referencing industry data and articles that appeared on screen.

She also reacted to Andy’s follow-up comment on social media, where he wrote, “Because every CMO I’ve worked with was more of a long term thing but what the hell do I know!”

“I’m going to believe that you were simply unaware, but now you’re aware,” Boz said.

From there, she shifted the conversation to her broader career and the assumptions being made.

“I don’t want us to be distracted by this debate about whether or not I can keep a job,” she explained. “Do you really think that billion dollar businesses would keep hiring a CMO who has a failing track record? No. And do you think I’d be placed in not one but two Hall of Fames, if I didn’t do anything? No.”

She also highlighted the lack of representation in executive roles.

“Of the approximately 329 to 346 Fortune 500 companies who have a senior marketing leader in the C-suite, only 1% of those CMO roles are currently held by a Black woman,” she said, noting that only a handful of those positions are held by someone like her.

“So I hope that everyone who is skeptical is now aware of the disparity, the challenge and the incredible amount of fortitude it takes to achieve,” she added.

Boz closed her message on a confident note, quoting Lil Wayne’s lyrics “I’m the best to ever do it,” while encouraging others navigating their own careers.

Andy later responded in the comments, writing, “consider me AWARE.”

Dolores Catania and Liz McGraw are weighing in on Ashley Iaconetti’s presence on The Real Housewives of Rhode Island and their comments echo what others in the cast have already been saying.

During a live Virtual Reali-Tea event, Liz didn’t hold back when asked about the newcomer, suggesting there’s a disconnect between Ashley’s on camera interviews and her interactions with the group.

“She does really well in her confessionals, and that’s something that didn’t show up in the scenes. Just saying,” Liz said, also referring to Ashley as a “confessional warrior” and adding that she needs to “bring it in both places.”

Liz also noted that she hasn’t made much effort to build a relationship with Ashley outside of filming, saying she “never personally tried to make plans with” her.

Dolores offered a slightly softer take but still pointed out Ashley’s low key presence during filming.

“She was very quiet,” Dolores said, adding that Ashley was “nice.”

Liz went on to give a bit more context to Ashley’s dynamic with the group.

“She’s a new soul. There’s nothing wrong with that. She can’t necessarily relate to us who have real deep seated stuff.”

The comments come shortly after Kelsey Swanson shared a similar perspective, suggesting Ashley has kept her distance from the cast. Kelsey previously said that Ashley “has not made it a point to hang out with any of us even after filming,” and described her approach as treating the show more like a job than a social circle.

Together, the remarks paint a consistent picture of Ashley as someone who has yet to fully integrate into the group dynamic, despite delivering strong moments in her solo interviews.

As the season continues, it remains to be seen whether Ashley will step further into the group or continue to keep her distance.

Crystal Kung Minkoff is sharing insight into a recent conversation she had with Kyle Richards and it sheds light on how Kyle really feels about the treatment of Amanda Frances this season.

Speaking on the Humble Brag podcast, Crystal revealed that she recently ran into Kyle, who opened up about the situation.

“I ran into Kyle,” Crystal said. “She said to me she felt really bad for Amanda. She was very like, ‘I tried to protect her. Everyone was so mean to her.’”

Crystal said she agreed and noted that Kyle often takes on a certain role within the group.

“And I said, ‘I know.’ We were talking about her being sort of the OG that welcomes the newbies. It’s like on her to welcome newbies. But she said, ‘I really tried with Amanda. I really worked hard.’”

The conversation also touched on a lighter moment, with Kyle sharing her experience filming a recent project.

“She said the shoot was so nice because no one’s fighting. Like you’re actually going to the studio to have fun and take pictures,” Crystal explained, adding that those types of shoots can sometimes feel tense depending on where the cast stands.

Crystal also weighed in on another topic that came up during the reunion, which was the conversation around Dorit Kemsley’s finances.

“I’m like, ‘Whoa,’” she said, recalling her reaction to the discussion. “They’re all facts, but it stings.”

She went on to explain that the pressure of being on the show can play a role in situations like that.

“But it’s also like, this is reality, and the economy is really rough. I think it’s a very hard situation to be a Housewife. I think people don’t really realize the pressure there is to keep up with the Joneses.”

Crystal added that there is an expectation that comes with being on a show like RHOBH.

“People don’t want to watch broke people. They want to see wealth. But then it’s like, what do you have to give up to get there?”

Her comments offer a behind the scenes look at how cast members view both the interpersonal dynamics and the real world pressures that come with being part of the franchise.
