Lisa Rinna is revisiting old tensions from her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and making it clear that some relationships are firmly in the past.
In her newly released memoir, You Better Believe I’m Going To Talk About It, the former Housewife writes candidly about her fallout with Garcelle Beauvais and Denise Richards. Rinna says she no longer speaks to Garcelle, calling the former co star “a huge disappointment,” and claims their dynamic never clicked. “We mixed like oil and water,” she writes, alleging Garcelle joined the show with her own intentions from the start.
Rinna also reflects on her complicated history with Denise, saying the two briefly reconnected after the death of a close mutual friend.
“We actually got on a call together, and it was a hopeful moment,” she recalls. That optimism did not last. “A couple of days later, we got into it again about something stupid,” Rinna writes. “She took my olive branch and stuck it back in my eye.”
Since that exchange, Rinna says there has been no communication. “You’d have to ask her why she would do such a thing,” she adds, suggesting lingering resentment from past conflicts may still linger.
Though Rinna admits she once hoped for closure, she now appears at peace with the distance. Some chapters, she makes clear, are meant to stay closed.
