The 59-year-old will be departing the sets of the show amidst a feud with co-star Kathy Hilton. Due to her bullying nature, she has faced criticism from the audience as well as other celebrities in the industry familiar with what she does on the show. In fact, Prince Harry once said that Rinna is the biggest bully in Hollywood.
The mounting criticism is perhaps one of the reasons why Rinna’s contract with the show was not renewed in spite of the fact that she received a People’s Choice Award nomination for the favorite Reality TV star for her performance on RHOBH.

She is best recognized for her appearances as Taylor McBride on Fox’s television drama Melrose Place and Billie Reed on NBC’s daytime soap opera Days of Our Lives.
She is married to Harry Hamlin and they have two daughters- Delilah Belle and Amelia Gray. Her mother Lois, who was featured in RHOBH once, died of a stroke in November 2021.
