If you work for Andy Cohen, you’d better have his number listed in your cell. Otherwise, you might miss the call when he phones you live on the air from his SiriusXM show, Andy Cohen Live.
Fortunately, Lisa Vanderpump knows the drill and picked up when Andy called on March 5. The Watch What Happens Live host rang Lisa during a “Call a Bravo Friend” segment.
Of course, the perennial question of whether LVP will ever return to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills came up during the conversation. Read on to see what she said.
Lisa Vanderpump jokes she wants a RHOBH return with Andy Cohen
“There she is!” Andy exclaimed when Lisa picked up. “Where do we find you this morning, Lisa Vanderpump? You’re on the radio!”
“Okay, you’re going to give me some really good news, like I’m going back to your Housewives or something?” Lisa quipped.
“Oh, would that be good news to you or bad news?” Andy asked.
“I’ve been waiting for this call for so long,” Lisa pretended.
“She is so full of sh*t!” Andy guffawed.
“You’re right, I am!” she laughed.
Lisa was an OG on RHOBH for nine seasons. Following Season 9, Lisa left the show amid the “PuppyGate” drama and a nasty fight with former bestie Kyle Richards. Lisa’s husband Ken Todd famously ejected the former child star with the oft-quoted tagline, “Goodbye, Kyle!”
Andy noted that more than five years after Lisa’s dramatic exit, people are still asking whether the restauranteur will ever return. “By the way,” he said, “every time it comes up, I’m always like, have y’all checked with LVP? Because I believe that she’s given her answer. Don’t be bothering me with this.”
“I think the last thing I said was there’s more chance of a pig flying to the moon,” Lisa confirmed.
Andy Cohen says “the door’s wide open” for an LVP return to RHOBH
Despite her abrupt departure from the show, Andy still holds a warm place in his heart for LVP. He was very disappointed when she chose not to attend the RHOBH Season 9 Reunion.
And yet, he would happily welcome her back to the show any time. “The door’s wide open for her,” he said in 2019. “And I think that when she comes back, she’ll come back with a vengeance.”
Since leaving the show, Lisa’s had success with not only her RHOBH spinoff Vanderpump Rules, but is also a producer on The Valley, Vanderpump Villa, and the short-lived Vanderpump Dogs.
And Lisa has plenty of diamonds already, thank you very much.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
