The reunion brings about fun insights into Erika; Kyle defends her friend, Faye Resnick, in connection with the O.J. Simpson trial; Yolanda opens up about her pending divorce; a conversation about Yolanda's health leads to a surprising moment.

- Tonight...
- This is like a desperate...

- You're desperate, honey.
Not me.

- The three-part
Beverly Hills reunion begins.

- Can I have my moment, please?

- [sighs]

- Can I tell her
that you called her

a harmless old lady?

- To who?
- To me.

- Ken called me
a stupid bitch...

- Yeah?
- A silly cow, a wanker...

- I don't think he'd
use the word "wanker."



- Yeah, he did.
- He did.

- It took a toll on my marriage.

It took a toll on friendships.

- You think you've had
a hard time?

You have no idea.

- I wanted to make sure
that we were good.

Can we get past this?

I felt like we were.

- You felt like we were?

- Weren't we?
- [laughs]

- And roll to the left
and pat the top.

And roll, and pat.

- You're being
a little Marco Rubio

with your talking points.



[dramatic music]

- Hey, guys!

I'm drinking wine and no one
could say a damn thing.

- Why are we giving her
a platform

when she's not on the show?

- Why did you decide to divorce?

- Did you know,
or were you blindsided?

- This isn't a soap opera.

This is reality.
- Don't be rude.

- We are so sorry.
- I don't want you to cry.

- It's my life
you're talking about.

- I'm sorry.
- I'm so sorry.

- She's not a liar, Lisa.

- You know what... sorry.

♪ ♪

- Are you okay?
- And guess what.

I did it. - Is she okay?

- I'm sorry, that's the end.

- Come on.

- Just own it, Lisa.

Fáááing own it!

[upbeat music]

- Hey, everybody,
it's Andy Cohen.

Welcome to "The Real Housewives
of Beverly Hills" reunion.

Joining me...
There's nobody else like them...

The fascinating, fabulous ladies
of Beverly Hills.

Hi, Lisa Vanderpump.

- Hello, darling.

- I'm digging this dress today.

- Thank you.

It's my, um, suit of armor.

It was the nearest thing
I could find.

- Perfect.
- Uh, Tom Ford.

- He made you a suit of armor.

- Yeah, exactly, right?
- Very good.

Hey, Lisa Rinna.

- Hello, Andy.

- Everything good?
- Always.

- Your wig looks good.
- Thank you.

My glue's getting to my head

a little bit though...
- It is? Uh-oh.

- So you'll just have
to excuse me there,

but other than that, it's good.

- Uh, hi, Kyle.
- Hello, Andy.

- Wearing the girls out tonight.

- Yeah, they decided
they'd come out

and join us
at the reunion today.

- Very good.

Hi, Eileen.

- Hi, Andy.
- Nice to see you.

- Nice to see you, honey.

- You have your sassy
Eileen hair.

- You know, I'm feeling
a little sassy.

- Okay, good.

Hi, Yolanda.

- Hi, Andy.
- You look well.

- Thank you.

- In it for the long haul
tonight?

- Yes, I'm here.

I'm not leaving.
- Oh, excellent.

Hi there, Kathryn. - Hi.

- First reunion?
- Yes.

- Ready?
- Yes.

- Well, you look beautiful.
- Thank you.

- Last but not least,

hi, Erika.

- Hello.

- You feeling more
Erika Jayne today,

or Erika...

- Well, clearly, I'm two people.

Um, you know, I'm Erika today.

- Yeah.
- Yes.

- Yeah, I'm just here.
- Okay.

- All right, and viewers have

a lot of questions,
so let's dig right in.

Vanderpump,
Linda from Sacramento said,

"What were you thinking
flying a horse all the way

"from Ohio to California?

What if the horse pooped
on the plane?"

- So what?

I wouldn't care about
something like that.

Must be, like, weird
for her to leave her farm

and get in a jet and go
to a Beverly Hills club.

- Well, you think?

You think it'll be a little
bit weird for her to get...

Leave her farm and get on a jet?

- Kathryn, Cara from Dallas
wants to know,

"Where do you get off
telling Eileen to have

"her husband drop
10 grand on bags?

What's wrong with
shopping at Target?"

- If the bag's janky,

then I, like,
think the shoes are not great.

- Heaven's sake.
Oh, my bags are janky.

- I'm not saying
one bag for 10 grand,

but three bags for 10 grand.

- [laughs]

- But I have bags
that I've had for 25 years.

- I have Chanel bags
that were my mom's, so...

- Exactly.

- See, I pass them down
to my daughters.

I tell my daughter.

- Kyle, Roberto from Harlem,

New York, wants to know

if your store is still carrying
those $75,000

rose gold sunglasses.

- 18 karat rose gold lenses.
- Oh, stop.

- I made the first one for
Princess Caroline of Monaco.

- Oh, my God.

- He says, "They sure as hell
put Dana's

measly $25,000 glasses
to shame."

- Okay, I'm loving
the sunglasses.

- Did you know, $25,000?

- Insane!
- That's right.

- I was buying for my store.

People thought I bought those
for myself because I showed up

at lunch after
with similar glasses on.

I did not buy those for my store
because I don't believe

I have a $75,000 sunglass buying
type of customer.

- What is the most you've paid
for a pair of sunglasses?

- Um, honestly,
I think like $600.

- Okay, anyone paid more
than 600?

- Oh, yeah, I have,

but I mean, they're classic.

I've had sunglasses
for years as well.

- Well, by day,
this self-proclaimed enigma

and former cocktail waitress

is the dignified wife
of a high-powered attorney.

By night, she pats the puss

and gyrates across

the "Billboard" dance charts.

Meet Erika Girardi
and Erika Jayne.

- Mirror, mirror, on the wall,

who's the fiercest bitch
of them all?

- Erika. [laughter]

♪ always. How's it going?

I have all the access
to the best.

What, am I gonna look
like a hag?

- We got to paint that body.

Head to toe, toe to head.

- Get in my vagina.

I do work hard to stay fit.

Of course I look fáááing good.

♪ ♪

We have two airplanes
in the family.

Being broke sucks and being rich
is a lot better.

I got you looking just right.

- Got to make sure
the jury likes me today.

- Every day.

My husband is the nation's

leading plaintiff's attorney.

My husband's 76.

- Wow.

- Oh, my God,
the look on their faces.

[gasps] Give me a break.

- What is he like in the sack?

- Erika's very over the top.

The blonde hair, the boobs,

the pink, the sparkles,
you know?

She may be giving
Lisa Vanderpump

a little run for her money.

- Pat the puss, pat the puss.

Pat the puss,
drop it down, bounce.

- I have an alter ego.

Her name is Erika Jayne.

- I think this is
outrageously amazing.

- Raunchy.

- Who is it?
- Oh, my God.

- ♪ I'm a temptress ♪

- Wow.

- ♪ I'm your mistress ♪

♪ ♪

♪ I'm a princess ♪

I think every woman
has a little bit

of Erika Jayne inside of her.

She's just dying to get out.

♪ ♪

[cheers and applause]

- I'm realizing that Erika's

interview look,
is it your dress?

- No.

You had a top, right?

- It's the same, yeah.

- It's the same color?
- Tom Ford?

- Yeah.
- Oh, is it?

- Yeah.
- The top?

- Yeah, just the top.
- All right.

- She has the dress.

- Lisa.

[laughter]

So how has being
on the show affected

the business
of being Erika Jayne?

- Erika Jayne who lived
in the clubs

in a very specific audience

is now in people's
living rooms, and women

my age are coming up to me
and saying, "Pat the puss,"

and "I bought PAINKILLR,"

and that's good and that's cool,

and listen,
not without criticism too,

but more positive than negative.

- Luann from Everett,
Washington, says,

"Lisa Vanderpump, you are
16 years younger than Ken."

- Yeah.
- "Why did you give Erika

"such a hard time

for being married
to an older man?"

- Well, I didn't give her
a hard time, but when I was

first told it was like
there's 35 years and she

even kind of gave me a wink...
- 32.

I'm not that... - 32.

- I'm not that young!
- Okay, 32.

- But it makes no difference.
- And she kind of... no, I mean,

ultimately it doesn't make
a difference.

- Yeah.

- It's kind of like a...

- It's fine.
- Different thing,

but I think it's lovely.

- But it was a judgment,
you know, I mean...

- Yeah, well,

she had fun with it, though.
- Yeah.

Because she could take it.
- Yeah.

- Okay, I feel better about
dating 25-year-olds.

- Oh, yeah, exactly.
- Well, you should do

whatever the hell
you want, honey.

- I have to assume,
though, that 16 years ago,

when you and Tom got together,
that there were a lot of people

calling you golddigger for real.

- Oh, my gosh, listen.

His partners and their wives...

hating on my ass.

- Because you were, like,
in your 20s?

- I was 27, I was 27.
- Yeah.

- So, Erika, you were married
once before?

- Yes.
- How many years ago?

- Uh, when I was 20.

- And you have a son
from that marriage?

- I do.
- And he's a police officer?

- Yes, LAPD.
- Wow.

- Yeah.
- And we didn't

see him really on the show.

- You know, he's private.

He has a tough job.
- Plus, he's, you know...

- Does it scare you
that he's in the line of fire?

I mean... yeah?
- Yeah, it's rough out there.

- I was amused then to see you

having lunch with Tom...
- Yeah, yeah.

- And then you run
into the chief of police.

- Well, he's an old
friend of ours.

No! - I'm sorry, sir.

We going to have to tow
your car.

- No way. No way!

Hi, Chief!
- Look how gorgeous you look.

- How are you?
- Oh, my God.

- What does your son think
of Erika Jayne?

- My son has been
so supportive of me.

We've been supportive
of each other.

You can imagine when your child
comes to you and says,

"Listen, I want to be
a police officer,"

and you go, "Okay,
maybe this will wear off,"

and it just kept getting
stronger and stronger.

I accept him for who he is
and what his dreams are,

and he accepts me
for who I am and what I do,

and I think that's
what makes our relationship

so unique and so close.

- What did you all make

of Erika schlepping
her glam squad to Dubai?

- Unbelievable.
- Lucky girl.

- Yeah, I mean, she has
an amazing glam squad.

- How did our look hold out?
Was it good?

- I felt it looked great
until they tied this, like,

black bedouin thing around
my head, and I was like,

"No, there goes my head."
- Over the braid?

- "There goes my mohawk."

- What do you think
you spend a year on your glam?

- Gosh, I mean, it's high.

It's high.

- When your husband
gets that bill,

what's the conversation?

- Uh, we don't have one.

[laughter]

- Abe from Highland Park,
California,

writes, "I love, love,
love patting the puss.

You should trademark it." - Yes.

- "Did you invent the move
yourself?"

- No.

- Did Mikey do that?
- No.

It is a dance hall move.

It comes from, uh,
Caribbean, Jamaican dance.

- Can you show me
how to pat the puss?

- Do you want me to?
- I would love it, yeah.

- Yes, we'd like to see this.
- Yeah, yeah, we would love it.

- Ay-yi-yi-yi.

[techno dance music]

So we're gonna...
Thank you, Yolanda.

- Can we all do it?
Will you teach us?

- Will you please?
- Yeah.

- Can I do
a pat-the-puss tutorial?

- Yeah, do the pat-the-puss
tutorial.

- Let's all do it with her.

- I'll watch.
- Give her a moment.

- All right.
- No, it's fine.

- It's your moment.
- Pat the puss.

- Show us how to do it.
- Pat the puss.

- So you're gonna...
You're gonna roll

to the left and pat the top.

And roll to the left
and pat the top.

And roll and pat,
and roll and pat.

- Very well done.
- Yeah.

- Yay! [applause]

- That is a reunion first.

Coming up...

- I would've hoped to wait

until I got well where
I could start dealing

with all the issues
that we had in the marriage.

- So it was not your choice?

- Welcome back to

"The Real Housewives
of Beverly Hills" reunion.

I'm Andy Cohen.

Erika, Mary from
Provo, Utah, writes,

"I watched your
music videos online

"and walked away feeling
like I just watched porn.

"Why so sexual,
and aren't you too old

to be prancing around
half-naked like that?"

- Oh, Mary, dear,

I'm so sorry
that she's given up in life,

but I have not.

No, you're not too old
to be a sexual being,

and I am proud of what I do.

- I was surprised that you
called her videos raunchy.

I mean, you?

- I think they're beautiful.

I really do.

I've only seen
a few of them now.

- Lisa, I don't... it's fine.

I don't... it doesn't bother me.

- It was a moment, and I...

- It's fine.

- I hope we've moved on
from it, you know?

- I moved on the moment
you said it.

- I know.

Good. - Quite simply.

I don't even care.
- I look at it...

- It's all good with me.

- Yolanda, which is
the dominant personality?

Erika Jayne or Erika Girardi?

- Erika Girardi.
- Yeah.

- Erika Girardi?
- By far.

- I've only seen her be
Erika Jayne on stage.

- Right.
- Otherwise she's Erika Girardi,

and I think that her husband,

the fact that he's...
He loves her so much

and he's so open to that
is amazing.

- You seem very submissive
to your husband.

- Well, submissive,
I don't think so.

I think respectful,
yes, because you know,

the man works hard
and has given me a lot,

and he deserves...
- And loves you, right?

- Yeah, loves me a lot
and, you know...

- It's just interesting
how traditional your marriage is

considering how
out there Erika Jayne is.

- Oh, yeah, it seems
such an oxymoron.

- But it's been... but 17 years.

It's worked for 17 years.

Erika Jayne wasn't
probably there

when you met Tom...
- No, she was...

- So she came in the process.
- Yeah.

- When did Erika Jayne happen?

- 2007, but Erika Jayne
is also living

in a very specific space,
you know?

I'm not Erika Jayne at home.

- When she wakes up.

- I'm not in a catsuit

rolling all around on the floor.

- How many catsuits do you own?

- Oh, gosh, it's endless.

It's endless.

- Good.

Okay, I want to change
the subject.

Yolanda, Gigi and Bella are two

of the biggest models
in the world.

- Unbelievable.
- Congratulations.

- Thank you.
I didn't do anything.

- Well...
- It's all...

- Oh, yes, you did.
- Yeah, you did.

- You really did.
- Yeah.

- And now I hear Anwar's
getting in on the action?

- He's not quite sure,
but I think it's just

a great opportunity to open
his horizons.

- That's great.
- Yeah.

- Monique from Las Vegas said,

"Gigi posed naked on the cover
of French 'Vogue.'

As her mom, how did you
feel about that?"

- I thought it was...
It was her decision,

and hey, where else to do it

than on the cover
of French "Vogue"?

- Exactly.

- I agree.

- Yolanda, Rob from Miami said,

"I read that you just moved
into a swanky new condo,

"but I bet it doesn't
have a walk-in fridge.

"How much do you miss
your refrigerator?

And has it tweeted you lately?"

- Oh...
- Did the Twitter go?

- Yeah, the fridge
is still tweeting.

- The fridge is still tweeting?

- Yes.
- Yes.

- Yeah, she's still on there.

- How is the new place?
- It's great.

It's coming, you know,
it takes time.

I sold my house furnished,

so I had nothing. - Oh, wow.

- Wow.
- Just my clothes

and picture frames, yeah.

- That's a lot to let go of.

- Oh, wow.
- Yeah.

- For almost four years,

we've witnessed the seemingly

idyllic marriage
of Yolanda and David Foster,

but as Yolanda's illness
lingered,

cracks in their relationship
began to show.

Watch.

- To my husband: You married me,

and down I went.

I love you.

I'm gonna make it up to you.

- We're gonna make lemonade
out of lemons, right?

- We're gonna make lemonade
out of lemons.

- We're gonna make big lemonade,
baby, tonight.

- Tonight?
- Okay.

Party's over!

- The minute I... you know,

David and I got married,
I got sick.

Obviously, it has been
very taxing

on my relationship.

- You be the patient,

I'll be the doctor, okay?

- Okay, Dr. Foster.

It's so important
for me to have David

here by my side in this part

of my journey,
and I couldn't imagine

doing it without him.

- You did good, baby.

Thanks, darling.

- You're welcome. Bye, David.

- I love you, baby.
- Love you, baby.

- Aren't you happy
you married me?

- Thrilled.
- Love you, baby.

- [sighs]

- Yolanda and David
are getting a divorce.

- [sighs]

- If you stop making
each other happy,

then you shouldn't be together.

Divorce is almost like a death.

Let's walk outside
and see our beautiful view.

David was my life partner,
my best friend...

and now I miss my best friend.

- So I know this is a tough time

on top of another tough time
for you.

I think it was such
a shock to everybody

who watched the show.

We saw you being so loving

to each other.

Why did you decide to divorce?

- It didn't just happen
overnight.

I got sick a couple of months
before we got married,

and I dropped off the planet.

Being chronically ill
for that long

takes the life out of you,

but also of your caretaker.

You can't underestimate how much
it takes for a man

to take care of somebody
that's sick all the time.

Oh, I'm sure that I haven't been

the wife that I used to be,

and I wasn't the mother
I used to be.

You know, it's like you change.

You know, David didn't change.

I'm the one that changed,
and you know,

I guess this is the outcome
of that.

- You've been divorced.

- It's the worst thing.

It's really suffering a death.

- It's like losing
your best friend.

- It is.
It's losing your best friend.

It's letting go of something
that was your world,

and it's very, very painful,

and I... I'm sorry.

I really am.
- Thank you, sweetie.

- I am too.
- Yeah, that's very sad.

- I know you are.

- It must be very hard.

- What do you think
about criticism that he's gotten

for not wanting to be
with you when you're sick?

- No, I don't think anybody
should criticize that

because unless you've walked
in our shoes

and lived our journey,
you shouldn't be judging it.

He is a really good man.

He's done a lot
of great things for me.

He supported me
for all those years,

and... and he deserves credit
for that.

- Did you know,
or were you blindsided?

Like when we were at Wally's

and you seemed emotional.

Are you okay? - I'm okay.

- No, you're not. You're not.

- I'm okay.
- What's wrong?

- No, nothing.
- What's wrong?

- Nothing.
- What's wrong?

Why are you gonna cry?

- I'm not crying.

No, I was emotional about you.
- All right.

- When I looked at you
that moment, I was like,

I really want to believe you...

- Yeah.
- Not having talked

about my children,
and I got emotional because...

- So it wasn't to do
with the marriage then?

- No, not at all.

- Did you know anything then?

- Not that night, no.

- So you still...

Was the marriage crumbling, or...

- No, it's not
the marriage cru...

It just came... we had,

you know, a falling out

on November 2nd,
and we both just had to make

conscious decisions
of, you know,

where... where is this going?

- What do you... you mean you had
a fight on November 2nd, or...

- We just had... yeah.

We had a, you know, a disc...
Yeah.

- A fight or a discussion?
- Not a fight.

A discussion, not a fight.

- To follow up on...
On what you said,

I mean, did you feel blindsided?

- Yeah, I didn't think that
that was the end of the road.

I would've hoped to wait
until I got 100% well,

where I could really start
dealing with all the...

You know, the issues
that we had in the marriage.

- So it was not your choice?

- You know, it's together.

It doesn't really matter.

It... it... you know,
it came to a halt.

We came to a dead end, you know?

There's conversations, then,
you know, it just... it happened,

and it really doesn't matter.

I don't want to sit here

and start, you know,
analyzing my marriage.

That's really private
between David and I,

and our family, and, uh...

And I'd like to leave it
at that.

- Do you blame your illness
on the divorce?

Do you think if you were healthy
you would be together?

- Um, I think...

[dramatic music]

[stutters]

- Coming up...

- It took a toll on my marriage.

It took a toll on friendships.

- You think you've had
a hard time?

You have no idea.

- Do you blame your illness
on the divorce?

Do you think if you were healthy
you would be together?

- Um, I think...

[stutters] Probably, yeah.

We probably would be together
to be honest with you, yes,

because we... we were
a great team.

I've lost my best friend,
but, um,

you know, it's life.

- What is your contact like
with David now?

- We, um, we're taking time.

- Apart?
- Time, you know.

Just time to... to settle.

- I'm wondering
from the other ladies,

were you surprised?

Did you see this coming?
- Very surprised.

Very saddened by it as well,

because I think we'd all,

you know, loved him and
just didn't understand.

I always felt
that you were solid.

I mean, that's my perception.

- But we've be... we were solid.

We were very solid, you know,

but things happen.
- Do you know what I'm saying?

- I don't know what goes on
behind your bedroom doors.

- No, but if I suddenly...

Ken and I were
suddenly separating,

I'm sure you would
be gobsmacked.

- No, I... it'd be shocking.
- Yeah.

- But you know what,
it's life, though.

- That's exactly how I felt.

- If I look around
in today's world,

it's not that shocking.

These things happen.
- No, but I saw no signs of it.

- And it happened
to me, and it sucks.

- I'm saying that's why.

- Erika, did Yolanda
confide in you

about what was going on
in her marriage?

- You know, Andy, um...

I have not answered
this question,

and out of respect
for my friend,

I will not answer it now... no.
- But you can.

- Well, I'm just asking
if you two discussed it?

- I mean, we talk, yeah.
- Yeah.

- I'm not asking
what you talked about.

- Yeah, yeah.
- Good. We talked.

- What did you talk about?

[laughter]

- Andy.

- When you look back
at the scenes

of the two of you
that happened this season,

it seems like there's a lot
of foreshadowing going on.

- Yeah, but you know what,
you can't look at it that way.

- Okay.

- Because, you know,
that is real life.

That's how, you know,
now we can pick it all apart

and go,
"Oh, David's jokes are so bad."

Well, you've known David.

That's just his sense of humor.

- He always says things... yeah.

- You can't now go,
"Oh, he's like...

- David's a good man.

He's a really good man.

- But his sense of humor

is kind of sarcastic,
and if you feel good it's funny,

and I don't even react
to it because I'm

so used to it for nine years.
- Mm-hmm.

- But yes, we can now all
sit here and start...

- Dissecting.
- You know, dissecting going,

"Oh, he's a bad..."
he's a good man.

- Good man.
- Mm-hmm.

- Kyle, you've said you were

depressed after
your mother's death,

and that you even
had physical symptoms

that nobody could diagnose.

Do you think that Yolanda's
marital issues could've

subconsciously been
affecting her health?

- I mean, I'm not
a psychologist,

but, um, I actually...

When my mom died,

I had, you know,
all these physical symptoms

brought on by the stress
and the depression, I think.

- But do you think because,
you know, the age you are...

And I'm a couple of years
older than you,

that also you put Lyme disease,

and then you put
menopausal symptoms,

which obviously,
are part of life,

and you put that all together,

and it's exacerbated.
- [stuttering]

What matter... it doesn't
make a difference to me.

- Well, because hormonally

I think you go up
and down, and...

- No, I've had that pellet
in my butt, you know...

- Oh.

- My hormones are perfect.

We check them
every three months.

- What's a pellet in your butt?
- They're perfect.

- I don't know.
- Can I get a pellet?

- Yeah, ask Daisy.
- I'd like one.

- Pellet in your butt?
- What is it?

- I want it.
- It's this new...

- I need it.
- It's this new...

It's a pellet. - Like implant.

- Progestin, estrogen,
testosterone.

I don't have it.
- Yeah, it's natural.

It's natural hormones.

- Have you had a pellet
in your butt?

- No, I've had nothing
in my butt.

- I'd like a pellet.

- Yolanda, do you think
you were depressed?

- You know what, I think
in times in the last four years

I've felt really depressed,

but more
circumstantial depressed,

but not clinical depression,

because I've suffered
clinical depression before

in '99, so I've had the...

- You did?
- Yeah.

- I remember you telling me
that, yeah.

- Because I broke my back
and, you know, I-I got

into a really bad depression,

so I have lived
through depression.

I fear depression.

- Do you think you'll ever
get married again?

- No.
- No?

- I don't think so, no.

- You don't?

- No, because I just need to get

to the fáááing finishing line.

- Exactly.
- Good for you.

- I need to get well.

I need to get on with my life.

I need to be flying

to Paris sitting front row

to see my girls at fashion shows
and enjoy life,

and that's the only... I have

laser-beam focus just for that.

- Very good.

She's the former model
who likes football players,

expensive handbags,
and stating her opinion

whether you want to hear it

or not, and she sure had
an opinion

about Kyle's friend,
Faye Resnick.

Here is Kathryn.

[upbeat music]

- I like to see your blue eyes.

Hot, hot, hot.

Golly, my wife is fine!

[chuckling]

- [laughs]
- Wow.

- I'm the average girl.

I love a great bag,
a nice pair of shoes,

a beautiful watch.

How much is this little diddy?

- 3.8 million.
- Wow.

If we want something,
we go get it.

Did I just get a little bit
better looking?

Oh, my God, I forgot an earplug!
- You need one?

- I really need one.
- What will happen?

- Why do you need an earplug?

- I have one good ear
for the rest of my life.

I lost my hearing

when I was going through
my divorce.

My husband calls it
"selective hearing."

I cannot... okay.

Am I... is it picking up sound
right now?

- You are gonna hear me

more clearly,
and you're gonna hear

your husband and everybody else
more clearly.

- I had no idea how much
I-I was missing all these years.

- You know what's flashing on me

more than anything right now?

- What?

- O.J.

I'm sorry to bring it up.

- That's all right.

- Like, that... that moment,

that's what's flashing.

- Kathryn must know Faye.

My friend, Faye.

Faye's best friend
with Nicole Simpson.

- I know, I know.

- Well, Faye wrote
a book about it.

Do you know Faye Resnick?

- Mm-mm.

- Really?

- Never met her, ever.

My feelings about Faye Resnick
are not positive.

She mentioned me in her book.

I never read it,

but in the book
she referenced me

and said that I was just
some kind of, you know,

turn the blind eye,
look the other way kind of wife.

I have to tell you, Faye,

I've... I've never met you before,

and I feel like I'm being phony

if I sit here across the table

and not, like, address

the elephant in the room.

- I have nothing to say
to anyone about...

- No, I mean...

- What happened
20-something years ago.

If I've done anything
to offend anyone,

I'm sorry. - I will never be

Faye Resnick's friend.

It is. - I wouldn't say that.

- Distasteful is a strong word?

- I don't want to go there and
talk about that about her, so...

- No, no, but that's
how I felt about it.

- That was 21 years ago,
so, yeah.

How does Kathryn have the balls

to be speaking against my friend

at my party
that I invited her to?

Shut the fááá up.

- Okay, um, lots to discuss.

There's been a lot
of online chatter

about how hot Donnie is.

He won the
"Watch What Happens: Live" poll

for hottest house husband.

I mean, you know,

Mauricio had held this title
for a long time.

- Yeah.

He still does to me, sorry.

- Aww, he's very handsome.

- Are you threatened

by the emergence of Donnie
to this group?

- No, they're both
beautiful men.

- Kyle, Faye Resnick tweeted
that she was not pleased

about how she was portrayed
on the show this season.

What bothered her the most?

- The women's interviews
were upsetting,

and the things that people
said about her.

You know, I hear these things
that people about say

about her, and it's not
the person that I know.

The person I know
is an amazing mom,

an amazing friend, an amazing
"aunt" to my children,

and just giving, and happy,
and always in a good mood,

and when I hear these things,
I think,

"God, how can people be
so misunderstood?"

It's just sad,
and it's frustrating.

- My name was never mentioned.

My ex-husband's name was
never mentioned until Faye.

- Well, I'm not talking
about the book.

I'm not talking about the O.J.

I'm talking about this arena

has been very difficult,
painful.

- But, Kyle, she has her life.

She lived it, so let...
- I understand that, Yolanda.

- She can share that too.
- I understand that.

I'm asking for her
to please not go down

and talk about somebody
who's not signed up for this.

- Ironic that the same time

Faye was on this show...
- It's so weird.

- Yeah, I know.
- She was being portrayed

by Connie Britton... - So weird.

- On "American Crime Story."

- Yeah, ironic.
- Did you watch that?

- Complete facade.
- No, I won't...

because I know the real Faye.

I don't need to see a fake,

um, version of Faye.

- But what was your experience?

I mean, share with us
because I think that if...

- Ugh!
- In regard to what?

- I mean your... your...
Your experience

when you were going through it
in your marriage, I mean...

- It took a toll on my marriage.

It took a toll on friendships.

It was horrible.

And, Kyle, whether you want to

understand my position or not,

I associate my name
being involved with her.

That's all.

[dramatic music]

- Coming up...

- I'm so sensitive
to so much right now.

- I associate
my name being involved with her.

- I understand that.
- That's all.

- I understand that.

- Were you still married to him

when the book came out, then?

- Yes, yes.

- Oh, I see.
- Yes.

- Jayson from
Shreveport, Louisiana,

sent in a passage
from Faye's book.

"At times we were worried

"that O.J. might take revenge
on Marcus

"by telling his fiancée,
Kathryn,

"about the affair with Nicole.

"That would've been a disaster
because Kathryn was

"a sweet woman who was well
aware of Marcus' womanizing,

and might've felt she had
to call off the wedding."

- Where... where did she
get this from?

- I didn't eve...
I didn't know her

at the time, so I don't know.

I only know the Faye I know now.

- She was patronizing
in her comments at the end,

and I know you're
protective of her,

but her comment
at the end saying...

- Kathryn, I've been protecting.
You don't do that.

- I know, but I'm saying this.

- I'ma tell you right now,
she was not.

You think... you don't know her.
- I don't know her.

- When she said
you look beautiful,

she meant that,
and then you said to me,

"Gosh, you know,
I've gotten to know Faye.

"She's really a lovely person.

I'm really glad
I got to know her,"

and then you wrote in your blog

that, you know,
"I would never be friends,"

and you said all these
horrible things,

and now you know
what it feels like

when the audience turns on you
and they don't know you,

and they say rude things,
so let's not

go down that path because I want
to stick by you...

- But she has a different
perspective of it.

- I didn't even get to finish
what I was saying.

- No, but my point is...
I know, but...

- Let her... give her
space to talk.

- I want to hear
what your point is.

- When I watched it and she
said, "Do you feel better now?"

- You're talking about the book?

- Obviously, I think that

you would associate that
with me when...

- Yeah, for sure.

- Right? Yeah.

- But nothing pejorative
or any of that.

Not at all.

- There is nothing.

- Good. Do you feel better?

[dramatic music]

- Uh, yeah.

A little bit, yeah.

I have history with Faye
in my mind...

- Okay.
- And it's... and because of

the things that I know
she wrote,

it's a barrier for me.
- I understand.

- It seemed like you
chickened out.

- It wasn't chickening out.

It was me taking
the higher road,

'cause I really
could've said a lot,

and I didn't.

I can't not acknowledge

what that is...
- Okay, well... okay.

- Exactly.
- And what that was for me.

You're asking me to discount
my feelings on it.

- You think you've had
a hard time?

You have no idea.

- That's true, yeah.

- You have no idea.
- Yeah.

- I agree.
- Terrible.

- No, I know.
- So please keep that in mind

when you talk about someone.
- She's your friend,

and she's protective
of her as well.

- I understand that.
- Yeah.

- I understand that,
but honestly...

- I don't think you do.
- Don't cry.

- No, I'm not crying. I'm not.

I'm just saying you've had...
- I wish she'd...

- A really hard time...
- Felt that strong about me.

- You have no idea
what she's gone through.

- You know what is amazing,

is that I lived
a really hard time.

- Yeah.

- Not because I wrote a book.

- [stammers]

It's not that.

I'm talking about from the show

and the people and the things...

Mean things people say.

- But you're discounting
my real life.

- And your real life is what?

- Is that I went through it,

and some of the things
that she wrote,

even pertaining
to my ex-husband,

talking about his...

It just... it... come on.

- His what?
- [sighs]

I don't even know.
- I'm just saying.

- But I mean, you just want
to keep going and...

- His dick?
- Yes, yes.

- Why do you want to keep
talking about all that?

Why don't we move on
from O.J. and all that?

Can we really?
- Yes, no, we are.

- But those are the things...
Like for me, it's gonna...

When you see someone...

The same way Rinna associates...

When she said she saw me
and she thought, "Oh, O.J."

Well, what do you think
I think when I see Faye?

- Marcus and O.J.
were good friends?

- Yes, at one point, but they
hadn't hung out for a long time.

As long as I was around,
we did things

here and there, but we did not

spend large amounts of time
with them.

- You were married
at O.J.'s house?

- Yes.

- When he was with Nicole?
- No.

He and Nicole were divorced,

and, uh, I'm not sure if he was

with Paula Barbieri or not,

but he was dating someone else.

- Kathryn, Sonya from
St. Cloud, Minnesota, says,

"You're a big bully.

"Even your husband says so.

"Why do you think it's okay
to constantly comment

"on Lisa Rinna's eating habits?

Why didn't you stop
when she asked you to?"

- Why do you think
you did it with me?

- Tuna tartare
on a wonton crisp.

- Beautiful.
- Would you care for one?

- She doesn't eat, though.
- I'm gonna wait...

- Oh.

- I'm a playful person.

I'm not a bully by any means.

- I think she was joking.
I mean, I thought she said it

like a playful joke.
- Yeah, she was joking.

I didn't think she realized
it was sensitive.

- Like, "I heard you're supposed
to have two breads today."

- It happened a few times.
- But Lisa told her

specifically not to do it again.

- I think maybe because
I feel safe with you?

- Mm-hmm, yeah.
That's what I was thinking

that you... I don't know.

- Why are you so sensitive
to that?

- I just don't like things

being said about me
that aren't true.

- Lisa Rinna does not
exhibit the behavior

of someone that has
an eating disorder.

- Not at all.
- She has way too much energy.

- Thank you.
- She's not tired.

She's not missing
in the bathroom later.

- Thank you.

- That is... she just has
a ballerina body.

I'm sorry.

- Kathryn, it was very moving

to hear you talk about

losing your dad
when you were young.

How did that affect you?

- [sighs]

I lost my father to suicide

when I was... I was 13.
- Oh, I'm so sorry.

That's hard.

- I know.

- [crying]

- Oh, sweetie.

Aww. - Do you have any Kleenex?

Come here.

- It's fine.

I'm... I'm... I'm overly sensitive

to all this 'cause my nephew
died six weeks ago.

He died of a heroin overdose,

and so I'm so sensitive
to so much right now.

But to answer your question,
yes, my father's...

[exhales sharply]
My father's death

changed my family completely,

and we're closer,
and we're tighter for all of it.

It made us all fighters
for sure.

We went through rough...
Rough times.

- Coming up...
- That's not true.

- But you didn't
stop it, either.

- No, we didn't.

- You didn't say right there,

"Lisa Rinna, that's bullsháá."
- We didn't stop it.

- I'm Andy Cohen... we're back
with the "Real Housewives

of Beverly Hills" reunion.

Yolanda shared the details
of her illness with the world,

but for some,
that only raised questions.

Then Lisa Rinna repeated
something she'd heard

from a friend, and from there,
things went downhill

faster than you can say,
"Munchausen smunchausen."

Watch.

- Good to see you up and about.
- Hi! Thank you.

- I'm actually really surprised
to see Yolanda.

She does not look good at all.

I'm not criticizing her.

I'm just questioning it.

- Yolanda texted me.
- Oh, yeah?

- She said she had a fever.
- Fever?

- Yes.

- On one side of my brain,

I hope that Yolanda
gets healthy.

And the other side,
I go, "Well, what is it?

Is it Lyme? What is it?"

- One closet that's got
all her meds,

and that's quite impressive.

- Oh, my God.

Holy sháá.

This is way bigger than I can
even process right now.

- I mean, both Bella and Anwar,
you know, had Lyme disease.

- Wait. What?

Okay, I had not heard
this before.

What's going on with Anwar
and Bella's Lyme disease?

- I don't know.
If she says it's true,

then she knows...
- What does Mohamed say?

- No.

- What the fááá are you doing?

- I've never heard in all
the years I've known them,

ever, them or anybody else
mention Lyme disease.

- If you're really curious,
and you want to understand it,

I brought you their tests,
and I want you

to take it home and read it.

- Oh, my God.

- Munchausen is...

And I want to cry to even say
this out loud,

but it's something
that people could create

if they... might not be sick.

They make themselves sick.

- That's a serious word.

- Talking about my illness
behind my back is despicable.

It's really a... a doubt
to my integrity as a woman.

It's an insult.

- As much as I want
to love Yolanda

and be her best friend,
my gut says,

"Run for the fáááing hills,
lady."

She scares the sháá out of me
'cause I think

she's more manipulative
than anybody.

- Lots to discuss.

I want to just kind of
go through this.

You've had, um, trouble
with Yolanda's Instagram posts.

Why? - Um, I guess because

they weren't inspiring to me,
and I wasn't...

I just was confused by 'em.
We've all been confused.

- Yeah, there were a lot
of sick kind of selfies.

- You're confused about why
she's posting them?

- Yeah.
- Or you're confused,

doubting what she's
going through

because sometimes she's well
and sometimes she's sick?

- Yes, the... the... the...
The way it ebbs and flows

is obviously confusing, and also

because she's shared today...
She said she had depression.

So I'm thinking,
"I know she's got Lyme,"

but I thought maybe
she had depression and maybe,

you know,
hormonal things as well.

- And also what Lisa said
on the beach.

You were dragging me
into the Munchausen thing,

and I don't know how
I got dragged into that.

- Well, I didn't mean to drag
you into the Munchausen thing.

- Okay, 'cause I was like,
"How am I gonna explain to her

that that's not true?"

- But you didn't stop it,
either.

- No, we didn't stop it.
- You didn't say...

- No, I didn't.
- You didn't say right there,

"Lisa Rinna, that's bullsháá."
- We didn't stop it.

- Everybody thought that all
of us questioned if she had

Lyme disease or not.
- We didn't.

- Which... never, ever.

We never questioned whether she
had Lyme disease or not.

We were wondering also
what was contributing to it.

- Yes.
- A multitude of facts.

- So that's something
that needs to be clarified...

- 'Cause we don't understand
Lyme.

- You know, when a friend...
- No.

- When a friend gets sick,
you ask questions.

- We did.
- You know, I... trust me.

This is my full-time job.
- I know. I understand that.

- You know, don't think that I...
We didn't cover menopause.

We did cover depression. - Yeah.

- We did cover...
We covered it all.

- Alisa from Grand Rapids,
Michigan, said,

"I can see why
everybody questions Yolanda

"because she can't keep
her stories straight.

"She told Erika she hadn't been
for a walk in ten months,

"but that's not true.
She was walking in the park

with Erika and Kyle
just a few episodes before."

- I'm so happy to see you up
and out like this.

It's like a miracle. - I know.

- ♪ We're walking through
the park ♪

- We can't go that far.

The walk in the park,
we walked from... what?

From here to the bench is not...

- It wasn't a walk... right.
- An exercise walk.

I used to work out
six days a week.

- Right.
- I mean, when I talk about

"walk," I'm talking four
or five miles.

- Exactly.
- Right.

- That's my walk.
- Exactly.

- No, but when you say,
"Ebbs and flows,"

that's what's confusing,
because when you would say,

"Oh, I haven't done this,"
and I said,

"But we were running around
Beverly Hills.

I couldn't even catch you."

- Come on, let's go!
- Yolanda?

Have you had any better ideas
lately?

- [laughs] Isn't it fun?

If you only knew
what it took for me

to do this with you guys...

- I think people see you

diving off the boat with Kyle.
- Yeah.

- Oh, motherááááer.

And three... go! Motherááááer!

[cheers and applause]

- So that's what's confusing
to them.

- Yeah, but I mean...
- She was too sick this year.

- Like this year, I said,
"I can't do it anymore."

- That's the confusion.
- And, you know, I said,

"I can't even get out of bed."

- Rinna, you told Eileen
that you thought Yolanda

uses being sick
to her advantage.

Do you still believe that?
- Well, in that moment, I did.

- How did I benefit in any way?

- You know, just you...
I felt at the time

it was more... it was convenient,
and I was wrapped up in it.

- No, it wasn't. Trust me.

I am... I am a workhorse.

- Yolanda, Nora from Salem,
Massachusetts, wants to know,

"Your so-called friends
spent a lot of time

"questioning your illness
this season.

"After doubting you so much,

how do you feel about
your friendships today?"

- You know, I am cautious.

- I think that whatever
we can do

to help you and...
And help you to open up

and be transparent with us...

- I think you have to be able
to trust first.

- Well, I know. I know.
- You know, I mean,

at this point, you know...
- I know.

- You can't just, like...
- Right.

- Flip a switch.
- Pull the switch

and just, like, forget about it.
- And I understand that.

- You're best friends.
- But I think we really all

do want that.
- But why didn't you?

- Do you feel like she should
trust you at this point?

- Well, no.
I would... I don't blame her

that she doesn't. I don't.

But I also...
- I just feel like, Lisa,

you know, you had no basis
to come out in the world...

- It was just an observation
and a question.

- And make
such strong opinions...

- I agree.
- About the, you know,

the integrity and honesty
of me as a human being.

And so it's gonna be hard.

This whole season it's like...
It's scary.

[dramatic music]

- Coming up...

- You encouraged me.
- Oh, Lisa, you got...

- Are you okay?
- And guess what.

I did it. - Is she okay?

- So you did it for me?

[dramatic music]

- Can I ask you one question?
- Absolutely.

- I mean, what were your basis
of being so outspoken...

- Well, I think I... okay.
- And so judgmental?

- Let's go right
to the Munchausen conversation.

Faye, who's my dear hairdresser
friend who's here today...

- A different Faye.
- Not Faye Resnick.

A different Faye.
We were having a conversation.

She happens to have a friend
who has Munchausen,

and she thought maybe Yolanda...
That could be something.

- How do you fake
medical records?

Blood tests? - Well... well, not...

Well, we didn't go that deep.

- You know me a little bit
as a person.

- I do, but this
was not malicious.

You have to know this.
This was just a conversation...

- But to repeat this
in front of the whole world.

- Okay, I'm gonna... I'm gonna say
exactly why, Yolanda.

I'm gonna be really,
really honest.

We were at my birthday party,
and I never wanted

to bring any of this up.

I really did,
but I will tell you,

going into this,
I was not gonna talk about it.

I was not gonna go there.

We were at my birthday,
and you came,

which was fantastic.

I was thrilled to see you.
You came with no makeup.

You left.

Um, Ken had said you looked
terrible, and Harry said,

"You know what? That's not okay.

This woman is sick
and we need to stand by her."

- Ken didn't say, "You
look terrible," to her face.

He was observing...
- Can I finish?

- That you didn't look good.
- Can I finish, please?

- You didn't look healthy.
- I'm gonna finish this.

This is gonna be said.
Harry said, "You know what?

"We need to support this woman
whether she's sick or not,

and that's that," and you went,

"There goes
our fáááing story line."

- No, I did not say that.
- Yes, you did.

- Well, the cameras were there
all night.

- You said, "There goes
our fáááing story line."

- At Il Cielo?
- Yeah.

- Il Cielo, we were sitting
there at your birthday?

- You said...
- No!

- "There goes
our fáááing story line."

- Cameras hear that, Rinna?
- Yes.

- Are you kidding me?
- I'm sorry

I said it, Yolanda.
- Oh, my God.

- I'm sorry that I brought it
into this.

- I wouldn't say...
- But wait. I'm not done.

- "There goes our story line."
- I'm not done.

I'm not done.
I got a phone call from you.

You encouraged me
to say Munchausen.

- No way. No...
- You called me.

Okay, I'm getting this out.
- No, hold on a second.

- No! I'm getting...
- Hold on a second.

When you... - No!

- [sighs] Say it.
- I'm getting this out.

- Yeah.
- You called me at home,

and you...
- I very rarely have ever
