Subject: It’s actually quite simple

Spill It to BravoandCocktails.com:
Rinna was pissed with the editing and what she saw as favorable treatment of Kathy (even Kathy knowing her contract was due to expire was a surprise). She threatened to quit at the reunion. The negative feedback from fans was getting to her and her family and her reps were warning this is hurting endorsements.

As her contact was up (no further options) UTA told Evolution she wouldn’t negotiate on anything less than $100k per episode ($2m + a season) with two option periods, negotiations never started. Rinna wanted to announce her exit on October 25 to coincide with the end of the reunions, but NBCU asked her not too, UTA convinced her not to do so as it would impact future opportunities.
