Lisa Rinna Shares What Would Bring Her Back to RHOBH — & It’s a Big Number

The last time fans watched Lisa Rinna on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” was the season 12 reunion in 2022. Rinna quickly became a fan-favorite Housewife, known for her iconic taglines, candid conversations, and her love of embracing the drama. After eight seasons, she announced her departure from the show.

Fans and even a few of her RHOBH co-stars have shared that they would love to see Rinna return. However, in a recent conversation with The Los Angeles Times, Rinna revealed that it might take a staggering amount of money for her to jump right back into the Beverly Hills drama.

Attending the Los Angeles Times Festival of Books to promote her new book, “You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It,” actress Lisa Rinna shared that any hope of her getting back on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” would involve a hefty payday.

“You guys are gonna laugh and think I’m ridiculous, but I was like, ‘I might do it for $5 million,” she first shared, before adding that her husband, Harry Hamlin, suggested that she ask for double the amount.

“He’s like, ‘No, 10. $10 million, you can go back,” she added.

While the figure Rinna mentioned might be a stretch for Bravo to meet, “Real Housewives” stars, particularly long-running fan favorites, are known to bring in significant paychecks. For instance, in Brian Moylan’s book, “The Housewives: The Real Story Behind the Real Housewives” (via Reality Blurb!), he reported that RHOA star Kandi Burruss earned an estimated $2 million per season. Meanwhile, RHONJ star Teresa Giudice had averaged around $1 million per season.

Perhaps a few of Rinna’s former RHOBH co-stars could help sway her to return to the show for a lower salary, especially since they have spoken out about wanting to see the soap star make a comeback.

In an April interview with Paper Magazine, Erika Jayne admitted that Rinna was one former housewife she missed working with.

“Well, I was just at Lisa Rinna’s book party two days ago. I wish Rinna would come back because she was such a great asset to the show,” she said.


Andy Cohen Reveals Rinna Is ‘Never Coming Back’ to RHOBH

Just a month ago, Bravo boss Andy Cohen shared that he doesn’t think any amount of money would make Rinna return to RHOBH. During a segment on his SiriusXM radio show, Cohen was first asked to address the rumor, “Do you want to respond to this rumor that you offered Lisa Rinna a million dollars to come back to the Housewives?”

“Is that a rumor? No. We didn’t do that,” Cohen responded. Cohen went on to note that he strongly believes Rinna would not return to RHOBH.

“I would say she’s probably never coming back. I would say she’s saying that too. …Yeah. It’s done. Yeah, yeah, yeah,” he said.

“I mean, yeah. I think there are two ladies named Lisa who are never coming back to the Beverly Hills Housewives,” he continued, referencing Lisa Vanderpump, who left the series after season 9.

However, if Bravo does ever meet Rinna’s price tag, fans could very well see her back alongside her Beverly Hills friends.

  1. Absolutely do NOT need that THIRSTY woman back on RHOBH
    Her last season was despicable
    She was vile, toxic and unprofessional. The way she treated Denise R and than Kathy Hilton showed her lack of character and class
