Kelly Dodd reacted to Andy Cohen‘s recent suggestion that women of all political views are welcome on Bravo in a video shared to her Instagram page on Monday.
After Andy, 58, said there would be “no show” if he didn’t “showcase people with different POVs” on The Real Housewives of Orange County and noted that the series was about “relationships, not about politics,” Kelly, 50, wondered why he changed his tune from years ago.
“Oh, now you’re defending MAGA women on Bravo, Andy Cohen?” she asked on August 10. “Why didn’t you say this when I was a victim of the cancel culture for my political beliefs? You chose to support strangers on the internet instead of your own stars.”
According to Kelly, numerous housewives lost their jobs on Bravo over the past 10 years for “being honest about their conservative values.”
She went on to say that the Black Lives Matter movement was a “joke.”
“BLM was a joke when you went after me and came after me about the mask and traveling. Your unwavering support of Dr. Fauci, who said you could get AIDS by standing too close to someone with the disease; he said that and failed to mention during COVID that the jab could harm pregnant women, even though he warned others privately about it,” Kelly continued.
Kelly then added, “I deserve an apology. You were standing behind this cancel culture, and you know what? I can guarantee you most conservatives, which is a silent majority, [are] not watching Bravo or your show anymore.”

As RHOC fans may have seen, Emily Simpson, 50, was revealed to have donated more than $1,500 to President Donald Trump, 80, ahead of the 2020 election at the end of last month, but denied that she was MAGA when confronted.
“I have strong values and that makes me inherently anti maga. But keep believing what fake rumors you will. (A very maga trait tho),” she told one of her critics.
Days later, and after Andy’s comments were made, Tamra Judge, 58, shared her own statement.
“This Housewife is not MAGA!” she declared.

Heather Dubrow, 57, weighed in as well.
“ME EITHER,” she stated.

Kelly Dodd was featured in a full-time role on The Real Housewives of Orange County from season 11 through season 15.
