Pinky Cole wanted to reveal her pregnancy on her own terms, so Claudia Jordan’s very specific reunion clue did not sit well with her.
Cole addressed the moment on Kandi Burruss’ Speak on It, explaining why Jordan’s June tease about a pregnant woman on Andy Cohen’s right couch bothered her.
“She didn’t [say my name], but it did bother me,” Cole said. “And it bothered me because, girl, you just said ‘the right couch.’”
The seating arrangement left only Cole, Shamea Morton, K. Michelle and Kelli Potter as possibilities.

According to Cole, viewers did not need much detective work after that.
She said fans could use “the process of elimination,” especially because some of the women’s personal circumstances were already known.
“I love a good tease, but damn!” Cole said, laughing about how much information Jordan gave away.
Cole says that her frustration came from wanting a little more time with the news before it became public and that she had intentionally stayed out of the spotlight while enjoying the pregnancy privately.
Cole also questioned how Jordan found out, suggesting someone near the reunion production may have noticed.
She later ended the speculation herself, confirming during the reunion that she and her husband, Derrick Hayes, are expecting their fourth child in December.
