00:00 - Slaves. - Slaves.

00:01 Like you said, people leave, people come back.

00:03 Do you feel like this is like,

00:05 you know the famous Bravo word, a pause?

00:07 Or do you feel like this is a--

00:09 - I don't think it's necessarily a pause for me.

00:12 I mean, I really think that I have a lot of other things

00:16 that I'm going to be doing,

00:17 but it's not the end of my relationship with--

00:21 - You've had so many different shows.

00:24 - Yeah, we have other things

00:25 that we're gonna be doing together.

00:26 So I'll just leave it at that.

00:27 - That's good.

00:28 Did Andy try to convince you otherwise though?

00:31 - Well, he was super sad, which I was like,

00:36 I don't know how I expected him to feel.

00:40 Like, I didn't know that he cared that much.

00:44 You know what I mean?

00:45 Like, he called me when they first told him

00:49 that I wasn't coming back or whatever.

00:51 And he was just like, I don't know how to feel about this.

00:54 And I was like, well, I don't know either,

00:56 but we're gonna figure it out.

00:57 - We're gonna figure it out, yeah.

00:58 - And he was just like, you know,

01:01 basically we had a long heart to heart.

01:04 And, you know, he made me get teary-eyed, like honestly,

01:07 because, you know, at first I'm just like,

01:08 oh, okay, yeah, I'm on to the next.

01:10 And then he's saying all these things,

01:12 making me feel like, dang, like, did I make the right choice?

01:16 - Yes, well, you're a legacy in "Housewives."

01:19 You really are.

01:20 - But he, it just, it made me feel special

01:25 because then he also went on his radio show

01:28 and to say how much he missed,

01:30 he was going to miss me and everything.

01:32 And I feel like we really developed like a good relationship

01:36 based off of just us having a relationship.

01:40 You know, 'cause I mean, you can't really,

01:42 in this reality world, you can't let your hair down

01:46 or you can't be comfortable to talk to everybody

01:50 because, you know, people like to throw things in your face

01:52 or come back and twist things that you said, you know,

01:55 on a personal level.

01:57 And I'm glad that he and I have that personal level of trust

02:01 where we can talk about things and say things to each other.

02:04 And I don't have to feel like he's gonna come back

02:05 and throw it in my face either, or vice versa.

02:08 - Definitely, well, it's nice that you went out

02:09 on your own terms too.

02:11 Not every "Housewife" can say that either.

02:12 So that's a good thing.

02:14 - You know, the funny thing is a lot of people

02:17 still feel like, oh, they let her go,

02:20 she just don't want to say it.

02:20 And I'm like, no, they really didn't.

02:23 But it's just kind of like, I don't really care.

02:27 Like, however you want to take it, take it that way.

02:30 - One more rumor I want you to clear up

02:31 because a lot of people were saying

02:32 that you didn't want to be on the show

02:33 'cause Portia was coming back.

02:34 - Oh no, and that was really crazy

02:37 because Portia and I actually had both talked

02:40 and I was telling her that I wasn't sure of, you know,

02:43 like my thoughts of what I wanted to do next.

02:46 And she was telling me that they were talking to her

02:48 and she was trying to figure out

02:50 and she wasn't sure if she wanted to come back.

02:53 So we both had had that conversation.

02:55 I already knew she was, you know,

02:57 thinking about coming back and vice versa.

03:00 And it wasn't a thing of that they were trying

03:04 to have one or the other.

03:05 They really were trying to have both of us come back.

03:08 So I saw some people were trying to say like,

03:11 I had to leave, you know, for her to get to come back.

03:14 And that wasn't true.

03:15 Like they were actually wanting to bring us both back.

03:19 And it would have been cool to do that.

03:22 But at the same time, I think she and I

03:25 have actually been getting along great, you know,

03:27 since we haven't been filming together.

03:30 And not to say that has anything to do with me

03:32 making my decision or whatever,

03:34 but I just feel like, you know,

03:37 it's just sometimes being on a show together

03:39 can make things intense, you know,

03:42 and then you have to address all the old stuff

03:45 instead of just focusing on moving forward,

03:49 You know what I mean?

03:49 So anyway, we're in a good place right now.
