Former “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Garcelle Beauvais isn’t ruling out a return to the Bravo franchise — but it would require another fan favorite to make a comeback first.
During a recent appearance on Bravo Breaking News, Garcelle revealed that there is one specific cast member who could convince her to pick up a diamond again.
Garcelle Beauvais Says Lisa Vanderpump Could Bring Her Back to RHOBH
While attending the opening of Lisa Vanderpump’s Vanderpump Hotel, Garcelle was asked what it would take for her to return to “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” after exiting following season 14.
Her answer was simple.
“I’ll go back if she goes back,” Garcelle said of Lisa Vanderpump.
The comment immediately sparked speculation about what a future cast featuring both women might look like.
Garcelle also shared that life after RHOBH has been treating her well.
“Pretty fantastic,” she said when asked how she’s been since leaving the show. “It’s been great.”
The actress explained that stepping away has allowed her to focus on other priorities.
“I get to spend more time with my family. I get to do creative things that I love,” she said. “It’s so good.”
Although she’s enjoying her time away from reality television, Garcelle made it clear that she still looks back fondly on her experience.
When asked about her years on the show, she described them as “great.”
The RHOBH Fan-Favorite Shares New Update on Sutton Stracke Friendship
Garcelle also recently opened up about where things stand with former close friend Sutton Stracke.
Appearing on Kelly Ripa’s podcast, “Let’s Talk Off Camera with Kelly Ripa,” Garcelle confirmed she has not spoken to Sutton since announcing her departure from RHOBH in March 2025.
“I haven’t spoken to her since I made that announcement on Instagram that I was leaving. I spoke to her that night,” Garcelle said.
The two women did briefly cross paths at the premiere of the film “Sung Song Blue.”
“I hear, ‘Hello Garcelle.’ And I turn to my right, and it’s Sutton,” she recalled.
Garcelle said she responded before both women continued on their separate paths.
“And that was really it,” she explained. “And it was so strange because I got on the carpet, and then she got on the carpet, but we were far apart.”
Despite the distance, Garcelle indicated she has made peace with the situation.
“We were talking in the car, and she’s like, ‘I can’t believe you guys aren’t friends,'” Garcelle said while recounting a conversation with a friend before the event. “And I said, ‘I know, it’s really weird, but that was a chapter, and that was a season.'”
She added, “I’m a big believer in sometimes not everything lasts forever, and it’s OK. You can still have a fondness for that.”
Garcelle Recently Revisited a Difficult RHOBH Moment
Garcelle also recently reflected on one of the more challenging experiences from her time on “RHOBH.”
Speaking on SiriusXM’s “The Julia Cunningham Show,” she discussed allegations that former castmate Lisa Rinna once suggested she avoid discussing race on the show.
“I didn’t think about walking away then, but I was very taken aback by that because I show up and my race shows up with me, and if this is truly reality, don’t you want to see my reality too?” Garcelle said.
She continued, “I mean, obviously, I don’t wear it like, ‘We have to, you know, Black power.’ That’s not who I am, but at the same time, you can’t negate who I am and what I bring and my experience.”
“That was a tough one, honestly,” she added.
