When Book Flames Ignite Friendships: Andy Cohen and Lisa Rinna Make Amends

In a dramatic twist that could rival any reality show plot, Andy Cohen and Lisa Rinna have officially buried the hatchet following a firestorm over Cohen’s memoir. Rinna was less than pleased when she discovered that Cohen had shared their private texts in“The Daddy Diaries: The Year I Grew Up,”leading to her dramatic decision to burn his book in protest. Talk about taking a heated exchange to another level!

During a recent episode of“Watch What Happens Live,”Cohen took the brave step of publicly apologizing for any hurt he caused, and it was met with a cheerful response from Rinna. She quipped that Cohen should feel honored to have his memoir turned into fuel for her fireplace—nothing like a bit of humor to lighten the mood of a tumultuous friendship! Fans were all ears, hoping to hear if this reconciliation might lead to a renewed partnership on camera.
