Andy Cohen Clarifies Rumors About ‘RHOBH' Scene After Lisa Kudrow Comment

Andy Cohen is offering some clarification regarding Lisa Kudrow's viral comment about The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

"It blew up that people were saying she was calling me out on fakery on the show," Cohen, 57, explained during the Wednesday, May 13, episode of SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live.

Cohen explained to cohost John Hill that the scene in question was when Dorit Kemsley stranded Erika Jayne and Kyle Richards following their "huge fight" in a "little" Italian town.

"Dorit said, ‘Screw you,' and got in the Mercedes van and left," Cohen explained. "What Lisa was pointing out was there was another Mercedes van there, so they weren't stranded."

Cohen noted that they reached out to the showrunner about the second van. (It's also important to note that Dorit actually told Kyle and Erika to "go f*** yourselves" before leaving them.)

"I remember hearing from production, like, ‘Whoa, Dorit stranded them in town,'" he said. "The other car was the crew vehicle that was taking the crew somewhere else and took the crew somewhere else."

Cohen added, "So Kyle and Erika then called the house to ask for a ride back. They called the house and that's why the van that had just dropped off the crew then returned to get Erika and Kyle."

He said that Erika and Kyle "walking on the street" waiting for a car "was real," explaining that the women were waiting "for some time" since the van had to drop off the RHOBH crew before returning.

"It's not even that interesting," Cohen concluded. "I'm sorry to bore you guys, but that is what happened."

The RHOBH episode, which originally aired in March, has been dissected on social media with several fans bringing up the two-van theory.

Kudrow, 62, appeared to hint on the Monday, May 11, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that she believed Kyle and Erika getting stranded was a scripted moment.

"I saw the Beverly Hills [episode] - you don't want me to discuss it. I am telling you right now," she said. "I am just going to say Black Mercedes sprinter twins. I caught that, I'm sorry."

The Italy fight came as Kyle and Dorit's continued to fracture. By the RHOBH season 15 reunion, which concluded earlier this month, the two women still haven't reached a resolution.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15 is now streaming on Peacock.
