Andy Cohen Speaks Out On Lisa Vanderpump Not Appearing On RHOBH Season 9 Reunion, Kyle Richards Says She Has “A Lot Of Respect” For LVP!

Andy Cohen is speaking out on Lisa Vanderpump skipping out of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 9 reunion. “I don’t know. I’m not going to do a Lisa rebuttal show,” he told Vulture. “Her time to say her peace was at the reunion, and she gave up that opportunity.”

Cohen is not the only one sounding off on LVP's exit. Kyle Richards is sharing her thoughts on Vanderpump's departure and admits that despite the demise of their friendship, the former child star reveals she has nothing but "respect" for her.

Notice: Kyle's interview with ET took place before news broke that LVP's mother had died.

"I always wish Lisa the best," she told Entertainment Tonight. "I know that she may not feel that, because of everything that's gone on this season, but I have a lot of respect for Lisa. I care about her very much. You know, we had a lot of fun together, and I really wish her the best! I think she's amazing at what she does with her restaurants and bars, so I wish her continued success and health and happiness."

"That’s how I really feel, so hopefully that’s the high road," she continued. "If I felt otherwise, it would be a very low road."

"I don’t know," says Kyle when asked if Lisa is really done with RHOBH. "I don’t know. I think she's done for now."

Kyle sympathizes with LVP's choice, admitting she understands wanting to walk away from the Bravo hit reality series.

"We all [think about it]," she told Entertainment Tonight. "That’s why I say you just, you never know … Honestly, each year you think, 'I mean, could I really hang in there another year?' But there's a lot of fun we have, too, you know? I think you've seen on the show this season, even though it was drama, there was also a lot of fun. I mean, the last episode was crazy, crazy ridiculous, but we laughed a lot, too!"
