The Untold Truth Of Lisa Rinna

Lisa Rinna posing

Lisa Rinna is as unforgettable as her signature hairstyle, her "Own It" catchphrase and her ability to dish on every bit of drama that doesn't involve her own. She is unapologetically herself, and season after season, she returns as a staple on the "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" franchise to give fans the tea straight from her infamously plumped lips. Her family is well known around the Hollywood Hills, with her husband Harry Hamlin famous for starring in roles on "Mad Men" and her daughters, Amelia Gray and Delilah Belle modeling for the likes of Tommy Hilfiger and Alexander Wang.

But unbeknownst to some, Rinna made a name for herself long before Bravo started cutting her checks. She hustled hard for her Beverly Hills reputation, earning accolades for her roles on soaps and even performing on "Dancing With The Stars." She's as unforgettable as her head-to-toe leopard outfits, and to quote Rinna — you better believe we're going to talk about it. We're giving you all the juicy secrets of the "Housewives" star, and just like her, we're not holding back. Grab a drink, because we're about to spill this tea. This is the untold truth of Lisa Rinna.

She posed for Playboy when she was pregnant

There are a lot of things women who are six months pregnant with their first child are doing, like buying diapers, taking birthing classes, and preparing for motherhood. If you're Lisa Rinna, you become the first pregnant woman ever to pose naked for Playboy. How about that for milestones? Rinna shocked the world when she stripped down for the September 1998 cover and ten-page spread of the infamous magazine.

In what was dubbed the "mother of all pictorials," Rinna made motherhood the new sexy. She spoke to CBS News at the time about the controversial decision to bare it all. "Not only does it take pregnancy to a new level, it takes Playboy to a new level," Rinna continued, "It shows where we are in society for Playboy to show a woman pregnant and naked."

In true Rinna fashion, her decision to share not one, but two Playboy covers via Instagram couldn't be complete without throwing shade at a former castmate. In 2020 during an episode of " The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills " Kyle Richards commented on Denise Richards' stepped-up glam to which Richards fired back in a confessional "I don't think these b****es know I've been on every f***ing magazine cover you can possibly imagine that they would want to be on." Rinna responded via Instagram writing in a since-deleted post shared by Daily Mail , "Well S**t..... I only got me two of the covers that we'd all want to be on. DANG," wrote Rinna. What's a good "RHOBH" fight without Rinna to throw some serious shade?

She's a soap star

Long before she was holding court as a "Housewife", Lisa Rinna became a household name on "Days of Our Lives" in the early 1990s. The actor played the role of Billie Reed on the soap on and off since 1992, making occasional re-appearances after retiring from her full-time role in 1995. Rinna even came back for the "Days Of Our Lives: Beyond Salem" a five-episode revival that aired on Peacock in 2021. Whereas "The Real Housewives" franchise might grant flexibility for skipping filming during sick days, "DOOL" was a different story, according to Rinna. "I mean, I would have to be on my deathbed to not show up for work. Like, that is just ingrained in you when you're working as an actor on a soap opera," she told Today .

The celeb isn't the only "RHOBH" star to launch an acting career on "DOOL." Rinna has a serious bond with castmate Eileen Davidson , who is also a star of soaps, appearing for decades on "DOOL", as well as "The Young and the Restless." She also joined Rinna for the "Days Of Our Lives: Beyond Salem" revival. Davidson told ShowBiz Cheatsheet that she was more than happy to join the series after learning from an Executive Producer that Rinna was a part of it. "[He] followed up with a text and said, 'Oh, by the way, Lisa Rinna is in it.' I was like, 'Oh my God, it's gonna be fantastic.'"

Drake is a big Lisa Rinna fan

There's one achievement that no other "Housewife" can compete with Lisa Rinna on, and it's got nothing to do with acting. Rinna sparked jealousy amongst her castmates of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" when it was revealed in the 2021 season that Drake follows the actor-turned-housewife on Instagram . Much to the surprise of her castmates, Rinna was oblivious about the whole thing. "I mean, I didn't know Drake followed me," she recalled during the episode . "His name is, like, Champagne Papi or something."

Castmate Crystal Minkoff joined the frenzy posting a boomerang from the episode on Instagram and captioning it "Not me feeling disappointed that Drake still isn't following me," she continued "Where you at @champagnepapi??" "RHOBH" Housewife Kyle Richards took it a step further, posting a bikini pic from Mexico and captioning it "Like my hat? #thirstythursday," tagging both Drake and Rinna. Unfortunately for Minkoff and Richards, "Champagne Papi" has yet to follow any other housewife.

She's been in the circus

Lisa Rinna has plenty of drama to juggle on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," which is fitting — since the actor has actually been in the circus. The "Days Of Our Lives" actor is a jack of all trades, and she can even walk the tightrope. She can credit this skill to her time in the early 90s on "Circus of the Stars ." The annual television special was produced by CBS and showcased celebrities performing circus-type acts. In this photo shared by Bravo, Rinna is seen on one foot, balancing on the tightrope.

In a Youtube clip  of the episode, a young Rinna decked out in costume stands atop another performer's shoulders as they both balance on the rope. She demonstrated her ability to climb on her partner's shoulders, and balance on him as he balances on the rope. She also shows off her multifaceted expertise as she rode along the thin rope on a bicycle. Now that is quite the resume, Lisa.

She turned her love of wine into a business opportunity

Lisa Rinna not only throws wine at other castmates on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," she sells it too! After teasing a wine label launch in years past, Rinna posted on Instagram about her new collection. The photo showcases a simple backdrop with the words "RINNA WINES." The "RHOBH" star captioned it, "The new French Wine Collection people will most definitely be talking about. By @lisarinna." Her castmate Dorit Kemsley commented on the post writing "Can't wait Rinna! It's so good!"

Rinna invited her fellow "Housewives" to try out her Rose as well as her Brut on Season 12 Episode 13 . "I'm putting myself in a very vulnerable situation," she explained during the episode. "Because, you know, these b****es could go hard and really tear it apart." But it seems the ladies had plenty of good things to say about the bubbly — or they had on rose-tinted glasses. "Oh my god, that is good," Dorit Kemsley commented during the tasting, while Sutton Stracke added, "This rosé that they've made is perfect for what I like. I like a really pale rosé." Garcelle Beauvais followed up with, "I normally don't like brut, but this is good." 

Rinna Wines officially launched its official page on Instagram and Rinna posted a photo on her own account announcing that Sparkling Brut Rose and Brut are the first to launch from Rinna Wines.

She's not afraid to call out her producers

Lisa Rinna lost her beloved mother and Bravo fan-favorite Lois in 2021, and her grief was relived in an episode of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." Lois was often seen chiming in on various episodes with tidbits of hilarious wisdom, earning her a reputation as a loveable mother and grandmother. "The world loved her and to be able to have shared her with the world is a great gift. I hold that very close to my heart," Rinna shared during the episode.

But Rinna had a lot more to say following the episode's premiere, writing in since-deleted Instagram stories about the lack of grace by Bravo producers for only giving the event one episode. Page Six posted the screenshots where Rinna wrote "Lois deserved and deserves much more," she continued. "Shame on everyone."

That's not the first time Rinna called out Bravo producers. In 2021, the actor shared via an Instagram story that producers missed an opportunity by omitting footage of castmate Ericka Jayne screaming at a member of the production. Screenshots of the since-deleted stories were obtained via Twitter , with Rinna writing "Dang it...I wish they had shown the screaming fight between the producer and Erika last night on the show in La Quinta," adding "Bravo Bravo F***ing Bravo" with three crying laughing emojis at the end. For those not keen on "Housewives" lingo, saying "Bravo" repeatedly during filming is a way castmates have asked producers not to air a scene. Which, to their dismay, usually doesn't work.

She's a great dancer

If you follow Lisa Rinna on Instagram, then you are no stranger to her famous dance moves. The actor frequently posts video clips of her getting groove on, and we can't help but to admit how her moves can put the rest of us to shame. She even posted a clip during a "RHOBH" trip to Aspen where she can be seen dancing in castmate Kyle Richards' daughter's room. Richards poked fun at the post commenting "Alexia's room will never be the same," to which Alexia commented back that the room was changed "for the better."

Rinna certainly has a decorated resume, including being a part of the Season 2 cast of "Dancing With The Stars." The dancer made it almost all the way, being eliminated just before the finale. Rinna's dance partner on the hit show Louis Van Amstel reunited with the housewife on the revival "Days of our Lives: Beyond Salem" where he played the role of auctioneer during the second episode of the series.

She's a huge Harry Styles fan

It's no question that Lisa Rinna is a huge fan of heartthrob Harry Styles . Rinna frequently posts videos dancing to the musician's hit songs, and it seems the feeling is mutual! During the Season 11 reunion episode, it was revealed that Styles is a big fan of the ladies of Beverly Hills, even binging episodes during quarantine. So basically, he's just like the rest of us. "He actually asked some of us for a birthday video," Dorit Kemsley revealed during the episode. In screenshots obtained by Capital FM , the One Direction star can be seen DMing Rinna and wishing her a happy birthday.

Rinna made it clear at the time that she was not a big fan of her daughter Amelia's relationship with much older boyfriend Scott Disick. She opted instead for the fashion model to date the "Watermelon Sugar" singer. "Why can't it be Harry Styles? Why the f*** is it Scott Disick," she revealed during an episode at the time. Well, we'd wonder as well, but it seems Styles is a bit preoccupied cozying up to Olivia Wilde . 

She feuded with the Dubai Housewives

What's better than a feud on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills"? A feud that crosses international borders, that's what! Lisa Rinna stepped up her smack-talking game when she called out the new spinoff series "The Real Housewives of Dubai." It all started when "RHOBH" star Diana Jenkins commented on an Instagram post that was making fun of Jenkins, writing "It must be fun being a Black content creator" (via Daily Beast ). On " Watch What Happens Live ," host Andy Cohen asked the only black Beverly Hills cast member Garcelle Beauvais what she thought of the Bosnian-native's comments on the post she replied that Jenkins was "uneducated." When Rinna defended Jenkins in since-deleted comments on Jenkin's Instagram (via Daily Beast), she was called out by fans for being racist. "We fight on our show," she wrote. "If we fight with Garcelle, we are, all of a sudden, called a racist," Rinna continued "If you are just so triggered by our show — and a lot of you pu***es are — go watch Dubai."

Well, the ladies of Dubai didn't receive that comment very well. "RHOD" cast member Lesa Milon tweeted "She does not want this heat, we're not BH .. we will drag her from right up off that doctor's table to the desert!" Supermodel and "RHOD" cast member Chanel Ayan also chimed in tweeting "Rinna Africa called and they want their lips back! Keep Dubai out of your mess and your mouth." Yikes, we love a good "Housewives" dragging.

She was on reality TV once before

Before "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" called, Lisa Rinna had her debut on reality television alongside her long-time hubby Harry Hamlin . Fans may recall the short-lived docu-series "Harry Loves Lisa" which was a six-episode series that premiered on TV Land. What's even more surprising is that former "RHOBH" cast member (and sometimes frenemy) Denise Richards made appearances, as well as current cast member Garcelle Beauvais.

The series was a cheesy take on the ins and outs of family life for Hamlin and Rinna, including parenting their two daughters, visiting psychics, and even marriage counseling. Fans can clearly see the "opposites attract" theme at play during the episodes, with Rinna being vastly different from her "Mad Men" husband. While their reality series didn't last long, their marriage sure stands the test of time! Rinna and Hamlin have been married for over 20 years, and if Rinna's Instagram is any indication, they are more in love than ever before.

She almost didn't do the show

Lisa Rinna joined "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" in Season 5, but viewers may be surprised to know that she was almost an OG cast member. According to People , Rinna made the shortlist for the show but was ultimately axed by Bravo ringleader Andy Cohen. "Lisa Rinna had been on so many reality shows, it just seemed like a parody to me," he said. "For me, it needed to be about real women. I didn't think we should have an actress, and I didn't think any of them should be famous."

And while the outspoken "Rinna Beauty" mogul finally made it on the franchise in Season 5, her husband's concerns almost had her turn down the role completely. Rinna spoke to Oprah Winfrey in a preview clip shared by ET  about her husband even threatening divorce if she chose to do the show. "He comes back to me in like two days, and he said, 'You know, I've thought about it, I've done some research,'" Rinna said at the time. "Harry, being a really, really smart businessman himself, said 'It's a good thing, it'll work for you, you should do it.' So I did it." And boy did she. She also launched a successful makeup line and is getting a taste (literally) for the wine market . If Rinna has an idea, she goes for it. The business-savvy housewife doesn't mind if you like her or not, she is going to "Own It" and then sell it to you!

She was on Broadway

Lisa Rinna had already graced the Broadway stage in a lead role long before she was dancing in her underwear to Harry Styles. Rinna and her husband Harry Hamlin played the roles of Billy Flynn and Roxie Hart in the classic long-running "Chicago" in 2007. Prior to joining the Broadway cast, Rinna had played the role of Roxie Hart for the national tour production of the famous musical. It's no denying their offstage chemistry was easily transported into the fictitious characters they played, so much so that the pair even extended their Broadway stay a week longer than planned.

Surprisingly enough, Rinna isn't the only Bravo Housewife to play in the hit Broadway musical. Her castmate on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," Ericka Jayne,  donned the role of Roxie Hart in 2020, but her run was unfortunately cut short due to covid cancellations.  Kandi Buress of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" took on the role of Matron "Mama" Morton in 2018 and Nene Leakes, a former "RHOA" cast member, played the same character in 2015.

She gets a fat check for being on the show

It's clear that Lisa Rinna knows how to market herself. She was a star long before Bravo producers came knocking on her door, so how much is the actor really worth? According to Celebrity Net Worth , Rinna's net worth tops out around $10 million. And while she has multiple businesses to attribute some of that wealth to, Bravo cuts her the biggest check for her role on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills." While Bravo doesn't openly discuss salaries, it's reported that Rinna rakes in around $500,000 per season.

The "RHOBH" star has done so well, she's even caught up to her husband in overall net worth. Harry Hamlin had been a prominent member of Hollywood's elite before he met Rinna, with his roles in "Clash of the Titans," and "L.A. Law," the latter landing him three Golden Globe nominations. According to Celebrity Net Worth , he's worth $10 million, making the pair a powerful Hollywood duo with multiple businesses and accolades between them.

She's a college dropout

Lisa Rinna's climb to the top was anything but traditional. While her friends were being shipped off to college, she had different aspirations for her future, and felt she wasn't cut out for school. In Season 10 of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" Rinna recalled her short-stint at college in conversations with her daughter Amelia. "Here's what happened at Emerson. I got in, and five days in I was so homesick I thought I would die," Rinna recalled. The "Days of Our Lives" star tried getting a degree closer to home, but ended up dropping out entirely at just 18. According to the Los Angeles Times , Rinna quit her university and moved out of her parent's house after being rejected for an acting course. "I just wanted to be famous and was going to do whatever I had to to get there," said Rinna. The actor landed small commercials and modeling jobs, before finally making her way to LA and landing her launching role on "DOOL."

But just because Rinna may have the resources to support her daughters in every way possible, she made it clear she won't be doing them any favors. Rinna threw shade at the college admissions scandal involving Lori Laughlin in Season 10 Episode 2 when she joked with her daughter Amelia. "...because I'm not going to put you on a rowing machine and take a picture of you and say that," Rinna quipped.

IMDB

Perhaps best known for the preternatural plumpness of her lips, Lisa Rinna managed to prove that there could be life after ruling briefly as a daytime soap opera diva. Craving the spotlight from an early age, Rinna initially intended to pursue acting after high school but worked as a model for several years instead. Bored with life on the runway, Rinna made the move to Hollywood, eventually joining the cast of the venerable daytime soap "Days of our Lives" (NBC, 1965- ) in 1992 as the volatile Billie Reed, quickly becoming a fan favorite during her short tenure. Four years later, Rinna graduated to primetime, where she chewed the scenery on "Melrose Place" (FOX, 1992-99) as the conniving Taylor McBride. Shortly after joining the primetime melodrama, Rinna married actor Harry Hamlin, best known for his run on the landmark series "L.A. Law" (NBC, 1986-1994). Post-"Melrose," Rinna took on host duties for shows like "SoapTalk" (SOAPnet, 2002-06) and tripped the light fantastic on "Dancing with the Stars" (ABC, 2005- ), culminating with her own reality series "Harry Loves Lisa" (TV Land, 2010). While not boasting one of the more diverse rĂŠsumĂŠs in Hollywood, Rinna secured herself a place in the pantheon of media "personalities," so ubiquitous in American 21st Century pop-culture.

Born Lisa Deanna Rinna on July 11, 1963 in Newport Beach, CA, Rinna later enjoyed a very traditional childhood - she was a Brownie and cheerleader - in Medford, OR with her parents Frank and Lois, who she affectionately described as "artistic types." After graduating from Medford Senior High in 1981, Rinna studied drama at the University of Oregon, but dropped out after her first year when she was denied entry to the advanced acting program. Devastated and disillusioned, Rinna relocated to San Francisco, CA and entered the brutally competitive modeling world, which she navigated until 1987. Unsatisfied with modeling and yearning to perform again she left for Los Angeles to find work as an actor. Appearances on television commercials were quickly followed by her feature debut in "Captive Rage" (1988), a low-budget exploitation title starring the late British thespian, Oliver Reed. Soon after, she landed the recurring role of Annie, girlfriend of Jason Bateman's David on the NBC sitcom, "Valerie"/ "The Hogan Family" (NBC, 1985-1991).

Appearances on "Baywatch" (syndicated, 1989-2001) and several TV movies preceded the role that garnered her national attention - that of damaged stripper/porn star/police detective/government agent Billie Reed on "Days of Our Lives" (NBC, 1965- ). Her role as Billie - the bane of Bo Brady's (Peter Reckell) existence - earned her back-to-back Soap Opera Digest awards in 1994 and 1995. Rinna stayed with the venerable series until 1995, appearing in just one outside project during her entire tenure - the low budget science fiction knockoff "Robot Wars" (1993). Following "Days," Rinna turned up in several TV movies and miniseries, including the Danielle Steel adaptation "Close to Danger" (1995), before moving to primetime with a two-year turn on "Melrose Place" (Fox, 1992-99). As Rob Estes' venomous sister and restaurateur, Taylor McBride, Rinna wreaked havoc on the life of Dr. Peter Burns (Jack Wagner), bringing even bitchier, back-stabbing exploits than usual to the famous address. During this period, Rinna met and fell in love with actor Harry Hamlin, a man still recovering from his abrupt and publicly acrimonious divorce from actress Nicolette Sheridan. The couple married in 1997 and gave birth to their first of two children a year later, coinciding with her departure from "Melrose Place" - but not before a six-months pregnant Rinna appeared nude in Playboy. She posed once more for the magazine as the issue's cover model in May 2009.

A potpourri of post-baby television roles followed - several of them opposite Hamlin, including a turn on his short-lived series "Movie Stars" (The WB, 1999-2000), the comedic TV movie "Oh, Baby" (2001), and the Lifetime movie "Sex, Lies and Obsession" (2001). Rinna's solo efforts included the 2000 Lifetime feature "Another Woman's Husband" (2000), which was one of the network's highest rated productions, followed by her sole feature film credit, "Good Advice" (2001) - a project best known for introducing Charlie Sheen to Denise Richards. In 2002, the highly animated Rinna was tapped to co-host the soap opera talk show "SoapTalk" (SOAPnet, 2002-06) alongside Ty Treadway. Her easy banter with her co-host helped her to earn several Daytime Emmy Award nominations. She was also the host of Lifetime's reality series "Merge" (2003-05), where makeover consultants helped newlyweds figure out what to keep and what to toss when it came to their spouse's belongings. In 2004, she and Hamlin played recurring roles on the UPN series "Veronica Mars" (2004-07) as the parents of Jason Dohring's character, Logan Echolls. Rinna's Lynn Echolls committed suicide by leaping from a bridge at the end of the series' first season. In 2007, Rinna landed a job perfectly suited to her glitzy, outgoing personality when she replaced awards show staple Joan Rivers as the TV Guide Channel's lead red carpet host.

In 2006, a tan and toned Rinna competed on ABC's astonishingly popular reality series, "Dancing with the Stars" (2005- ). She and her partner Louis van Amstel pleased the judges and Rinna's exhibitionist personality was on full display, but it was not enough to prevent the pair from being eliminated mid-season. Ever the supportive husband, Hamlin followed in his wife's footsteps, literally, competing on "Dancing with the Stars" the following season. His twirl on the ballroom floor, however, ended even sooner than Rinna's, though his wife was always spotted ringside. Regardless, their "Dancing" exposure ignited enough public interest in them for the celebrity coupled to land their own celeb-reality series, "Harry Loves Lisa," which premiered on the TV Land Network in 2010. In a bizarre turn of events that would likely provide fodder for the show, the couple's San Fernando Valley clothing boutique was broken into twice during the same week the first episode aired. Only weeks later, it was then reported that Rinna had jumped aboard another reality program, season four of the successful "The Celebrity Apprentice" (NBC, 2004- ) franchise, in which she would compete against singer Mark McGrath, actress Marlee Matlin and rapper Lil Jon, among others.

Meet ‘The Middle’s New Housewife: Bravo Star Lisa Rinna

How Lisa Rinna's New Era Is All About Taking Risks and Embracing Change

Lisa rinna has never been afraid to push the boundaries, but now, she's taking risks more than ever. as the rhobh alum exclusively told e news, "it's really important to follow my heart.".

Lisa Rinna  is owning her new era—and she's not paying lip service either.

Less than a year after  announcing her exit  on the  Real Housewives of Beverly Hills , Lisa has pushed the boundaries even further with her fashion, beauty and career.

"I feel really proud to express myself the way that I want to at 60 years old," the Rinna Beauty founder  exclusively told E! News while promoting her new Thick Sticks collection . "I never limit myself, and being able to take the risks, have fun with fabulous people, it just translates into who I am at this moment."

As she put it, "I don't really think about it too much—I just do it!"

If anyone knows what it's like to step outside of the box, it's the Melrose Place  actress. But taking a huge leap of faith, like exiting  the Bravo series  in January, isn't always an easy decision.

"It's real scary and it's hard," Lisa confessed. "After eight years, to make a change like that, it changes your life when you leave a job that you've had for that long."

However, the reality TV star pointed out that it's essential to evolve.

"You just have to do it," she encouraged. "At the end of the day, you have to go with your gut . Because you know when you need to leave something, you know when it's time to change—it's just that fear gets in the way."

But the way Lisa sees it, when one door closes, another  will open.

"Life and business are about taking risks," she shared. "I always think that even if I make a mistake and did something that didn't work out, that'll lead me to the next thing. Face your fears and go with your gut."

In fact, the Days of Our Lives  star's new chapter includes returning to her acting roots .

"I feel so lucky and so grateful," she said, before noting her role on American Horror Stories . "And I like Sheila Klein, she's a tough b---h. I prepared eight years for Sheila Klein. [laughs] I'm just really happy to be acting."

And while Lisa may have served up plenty of drama on RHOBH , she's eager to play a femme fatale on the big screen.

"I want to do things that I've not done yet," she revealed, "Like, I'd love to do a horror film, I want to play a murderer. I want to do things that are just way outside the box."

While she's manifesting future projects and hoping to check off career goals, Lisa's all about embracing the moment.

After all, she explained, "It's really important to follow my heart."

Lisa Rinna’s moving on from ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ after eight ‘fun’ years

“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” will be one housewife short when the reality show returns to Bravo.

On Thursday, Lisa Rinna announced she would no longer be appearing in the long-running series after joining the cast eight years ago, in Season 5.

A representative for Rinna said in a statement to The Times that the “Days of Our Lives” actor’s “contract was up at the end of last season.”

BEVERLY HILLS, CA., MAY 31, 2019—Actress and "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Lisa Rinna at her home. Rinna is not stranger to drama with stints on soaps such as "Days of Our Lives" and primetime's "Melrose Place," but she's settled into a new league of high drama as a cast member of the popular Bravo reality series.

Lisa Rinna just wanted to be famous. With ‘Real Housewives,’ she got her wish

When I meet Lisa Rinna in the back of an empty dance studio on Melrose Avenue on a recent weekday, there’s no video crew to document our shenanigans.

July 9, 2019

“After taking the time to weigh her current options and business obligations, Lisa and Bravo have discussed and mutually decided that she will not be returning to RHOBH,” the statement said.

In a separate statement shared with the Los Angeles Times, Rinna celebrated “Real Housewives” as “the longest job I have held in my 35-year career.”

“I am grateful to everyone at Bravo and all those involved in the series,” she said. “It has been a fun 8-year run and I am excited for what is to come!”

Lisa Rinna couldn’t wait for the ‘RHOBH’ reunion to start drama with Kathy Hilton

Ahead of filming Friday’s ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ reunion, Lisa Rinna stirred up drama by sharing private texts from co-star Kathy Hilton.

Sept. 9, 2022

After appearing as a “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” guest in Season 4, Rinna joined the cast in the series’ fifth season, which ran from November 2014 to April 2015. Since then, the “Melrose Place” actor has graced Bravo airwaves with her signature shag hairdo and self-deprecating attitude.

Rinna’s time on the messy reality show, obviously, wasn’t without its share of drama. Among her notable moments are her fiery, glass-shattering dispute with Kim Richards in Amsterdam and her Munchausen’s comments to Yolanda Hadid.

Even in her final months as part of the “Real Housewives” cast, Rinna was embroiled in the drama of Season 12’s contentious Aspen trip — the setting of Kathy Hilton’s alleged meltdown.

Why are ‘Real Housewives’’ biggest fans booing one of its stars?

‘Beverly Hills’ star Lisa Rinna’s journey from fan favorite to persona non grata culminated in a chorus of boos at BravoCon. Here’s how we got here.

Oct. 14, 2022

Rinna, a fan favorite who was nevertheless recently booed at BravoCon , said at the fan event in October that she once believed “being on a soap opera was more difficult than being a Housewife.

“But it’s more difficult to be a Housewife,” she said. “It’s a lot harder because it’s real. ... This is real and these are people that I do care about.”

Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin's Relationship Timeline

Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin have been married since 1997

lisa rinna biography

Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin have been going strong for 26 years — and it all started with a chance encounter and some good timing.

The duo first met back in 1992 while they were both in other relationships , but it only took a few months for the stars to align. At the time, Rinna was working at a glasses shop and the owner happened to be a good friend of Hamlin. After closing up the store one evening, she went to drop the keys off to her boss, who was conveniently out to dinner with Hamlin. There was an immediate spark between the actors and it wasn't long before they were going on their first date.

Rinna and Hamlin didn't hesitate to go public with their relationship shortly after, although it did take them five years to officially walk down the aisle. They welcomed their first daughter, Delilah Belle , in 1998, and their second daughter, Amelia Gray , in 2001.

"We are crazy about each other, and you can't create that, you can't make it — it either is, or it isn't … I think you either really dig somebody, or you don't. And I'm so blessed, we are so blessed that that happened for us," Rinna shared with PEOPLE .

From their restaurant meet cute to welcoming two daughters, here's everything you need to know about Rinna and Hamlin's relationship.

1992: Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin cross paths for the first time

Rinna first crossed paths with Hamlin when he was still married to actress Nicollette Sheridan . While they didn't exchange more than a "hello," Hamlin says he was already smitten — and Rinna was a little bit starstruck by the actor.

"She was leaving and I was having dinner and she was walking out of the restaurant with her boyfriend … I was sitting with my wife at the time … and this absolutely gorgeous girl walks by me. Might have said hello … I was married, so I wasn't thinking beyond that, but I recall being stricken by her beauty," Hamlin told PEOPLE .

"You were Harry Hamlin!" added Rinna. "You were the Sexiest Man Alive, big movie star, you were starring in L.A. Law . I was starstruck!"

"You were starstruck and I was love-struck," Hamlin replied.

1992: Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin have their first conversation at a restaurant

Rinna and Hamlin crossed paths once again several months later, just days after Hamlin had split with Sheridan. At the time, Rinna was working at a glasses store and had to drop off the shop keys to the owner who happened to be having dinner with Hamlin. Rinna stopped by the restaurant and was invited to join the duo, where sparks flew — and a humorous conversation was had.

She also opened up to the publication about the morals her parents instilled in her.

“My parents taught me how important kindness is. I truly live by the idea that the most beautiful woman can walk in the room and quickly become the ugliest simply by how she treats others," she said, adding, "My parents also taught me to work harder tomorrow than I did today."
