For instance, Mary Cosby recently returned to Real Housewives Of Salt Lake City. And so fans assumed Rinna could one day return to RHOBH.
However, the Days Of Our Lives alum just took an action that shocked Real Housewives viewers. And now Bravo has reportedly fought back. Get all the details below.
Lisa Rinna Burns Bridges With Shocking Action
Days Of Our Lives alum Lisa Rinna recently urged Bravo reality TV stars to boycott the annual fan convention known as BravoCon.
But the network fought back, according to a source quoted by Radar Online. “Lisa is dead to Bravo,” claimed the insider.

And the source pointed out that by urging Bravo’s stars to avoid the fan convention, Rinna impacted her potential for returning. “She is literally biting the hand that feeds her. You didn’t hear Lisa demanding a strike when she was collecting a Bravo paycheck.
This is sour grapes because she is no longer a Real Housewife and she wasn’t invited to participate in this year’s convention,” said the insider.
However, a spokesperson for the Days Of Our Lives alum claimed that “no sour grapes at all” exist. And the rep added, “This was based solely on the principles of the matter surrounding the discussion of unionizing.”
But insiders caution that Rinna, 60, might want to consider halting her mission to shut down BravoCon by getting the stars to boycott.

Lisa Rinna Advised To Use Caution
However, one TV insider pointed out that Bravo exists as part of a much larger company. “Don’t forget Bravo is part of a much bigger company.
When you mess with one of the channels, you’re messing with them all,” shared the source. “If Lisa ever wants to be on Access Hollywood, E! or the Today show ever again, she should shut her mouth.”
Meanwhile, some fans think that Rinna made her move solely for publicity. For instance, one follower shared, “Rinna will say or do anything for attention. She is done.”
And Bethenny Frankel faces similar criticism. The Real Housewives Of New York City (RHONY) alum reportedly has begun boasting that she will “bring down Bravo,” according to Page Six.
But though Frankel accused Bravo of manipulating its stars by giving them an abundance of alcohol, current cast members support the network.
And even some alums feel as if they don’t want to make enemies with Bravo in case they get a chance to return.
