“I have to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the last season that she was on,” Hamlin then said. “That show was so terrifying for her, so horrible.

I mean, she's just killing it everywhere she goes.”

“I absolutely love it,” Cohen added.

The Mommy Meanest actress later spoke out about ending her time on the show with a bad experience, saying she would not consider returning.

"It has made me a better actor," she shared during an appearance on The Jennifer Hudson Show in March.  "I'm acting again [and] I'm not kidding — you laugh but it's true. I think it made me a better actor."

"I'm grateful for that show,” she later added. “I'm the person I am today because of it, but I'll never go back. Nope, I did it. Did it, done it, saw the movie."

After leaving the hit Bravo franchise, fans mourned the loss of Rinna on the show. In February 2023, just after sharing the news that she wouldn’t be returning, the Mommy Meanest actress reacted to being missed.

"I didn't expect that, I really didn't," Rinna said. "That is the thing that was unexpected to me the most about everything. I thought people would mostly be like, 'Thank God we got her fired' — and some were, don't get me wrong. But the majority of it was love."

"Even the way people described my eight years on the show, with words like 'legend, icon, G.O.A.T.' — I said to Harry, 'There are things you'd normally only get to hear if you died!'" she continued, jokingly. "And that's how it felt: like I died, but I didn't, and I got to see all the things that people would say about me at my funeral."

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills can be streamed on Peacock.
