Bravo exec Andy Cohen says that several Housewives have claimed that their lives have been ruined since joining the show.
People have said, ‘I feel like this was a mistake. This has not been a positive experience for me.’ And people have said, ‘This saved my marriage,’ or ‘I never would have had the courage to leave my husband if I didn’t have the power that I now feel from this platform and the love of the people who watch it,’ or ‘I wouldn’t have had the knowledge that I was in a bad marriage,’ or ‘I wouldn’t have met my current husband,'” he told The New Yorker.
He then weighed in on cancel culture: “The truth of the matter is, some nights I leave the show, and I think, You really seemed pervy tonight on the show. And I’ll have to text my executive producer… and be, like, ‘Was that super pervy of me, what I said?'” shared Andy. “Because now, you know, I’m in my 50s, I have gray hair, and now I’m a dad, so it doesn’t land the same way. And she will always be honest; she’ll say, ‘It was fine.’ Or she’ll say, ‘In truth, I was a little skeeved out.’ And I’ll be, like, ‘Oh, God.'”
