In a recent episode of his SiriusXM radio show, Andy Cohen addressed the ongoing speculation about the potential return of Lisa Vanderpump to "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." The host made it clear that despite the rumors, he has not been actively pursuing her comeback. Cohen expressed his admiration for Vanderpump but clarified that the origin of these rumors remains unclear to him. He stated that while he holds deep respect and affection for the 64-year-old star, he does not envision her rejoining the cast anytime soon.

Cohen's co-host, John Hill, pointed out that Vanderpump, who is now focused on her own projects, might not need to return to the show. Cohen agreed, noting that she may no longer fit seamlessly with the current cast dynamics. He mentioned that while Vanderpump shares some friendships within the group, there seems to be little interest in reconnecting on a deeper level. Despite this, Cohen fondly remembers the unique rapport between Vanderpump and Kyle Richards, which became a point of intrigue when their friendship took a turn during season nine. Cohen humorously remarked on the occasional public encounters between the two, where they engage in playful banter, adding a touch of drama that fans enjoy.

Lisa Vanderpump departed from "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" after nine seasons, leaving a significant void in the show. Initially, Cohen expressed hope for her eventual return, emphasizing the ensemble nature of the series and how it continues to thrive even as cast members come and go. However, at a recent BravoCon event, Vanderpump firmly stated that she has moved on, focusing instead on her numerous ventures. This response suggests that her chapter with RHOBH has likely closed, marking a new era for both the star and the beloved reality franchise.
