Lisa Rinna Claims Her Explosive RHOBH Dinner Fight Was ‘Produced’

Lisa Rinna is finally spilling the (spilled) wine.

The former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star is revisiting one of the franchise’s most iconic meltdowns—the glass-smashing dinner in Amsterdam with Kim Richards during season 5. And according to Rinna, that infamous moment might not have been entirely organic.

Speaking on her podcast, “Let’s Not Talk About the Husband,” Lisa claimed Kim later told her that producers were behind the now-legendary line, “Let’s talk about the husband.”

“She has since come to me and said, ‘I was produced to do that,’” Lisa revealed. “Whether that’s true or not… that’s how she dealt with it when we made up in a sense.”

Lisa Rinna Claims Producers Pushed Her Buttons

Lisa admitted producers likely knew exactly how to get a reaction out of her.

“If you listen to me for long enough, you’d know that if anybody came after [my husband] or the girls, that would be like pushing a big button in me,” she explained. “If you were a smart producer… you’d be pretty stupid if you didn’t have somebody come after me about the kids or you.”

The result? One of the most shocking (and GIF-worthy) dinner table blowups in Bravo history. Rinna even laughed that if she had brushed off Kim’s jab, “I wouldn’t have made a very good Housewife though, if I’d have just laughed.”

Rinna’s husband Harry Hamlin joined her for the podcast episode, pressing her on what exactly Kim meant all those years ago.

“I wish I knew what the rumors were,” Harry said.

Lisa didn’t miss a beat: “You know them. You are gay and you have affairs in Canada all the time… those are two big ones.”

Harry, for his part, brushed it off. “I let these rumors… fall off my back like water off a duck’s back.”
