Carole Radziwill made her return to Bravo after a seven-year absence during a recent surprise appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen. This might have come as a shock to some who were aware that The Real Housewives of New York City alum had an alleged feud with the WWHL host, Andy Cohen. After the WWHL episode aired on Aug. 4, Andy opened up about his reunion with Carole and their rocky past.
“She and I, as you know, had a big, kind of falling out. She asked me to never speak to her again, and then we kind of went at each other, publicly, for years,” Andy explained during an episode of his Sirius XM radio show, Andy Cohen Live. He noted that they were able to make up after they texted one another and sorted out their feelings.
He said, “We really kind of came to a very positive place.”
Carole took to her Instagram Story, where she reposted a clip from the radio show and shared her own perspective on their reunion. “True story… we hadn’t spoken or even bumped into each other in nearly 7 years!” she wrote over the clip. “After another public argument, we quietly settled our differences over text messages. Then, one week later, we bumped into each other at The Polo Bar!”
“The universe had said, enough!” she concluded.

“And Heather [Thomson] moved to the Berkshires, but she comes to the city, and I still see her very occasionally, a couple of times a year,” Carole admitted. “And then other than that, I haven’t seen anyone else in eight years although I recently randomly bumped into Ramona [Singer] and Luann [de Lesseps] at the same party and I had to look around and was like, ‘There’s definitely cameras here.’ There should have been.”
