Andy Cohen was interviewed at the premiere of The Real Housewives of New York City on Wednesday, July 12. The 55-year-old host joined the event at The Rainbow Room to commemorate the relaunch of RHONY for its 14th season, which features a fresh cast including Sai De Silva, Ubah Hassan, Erin Dana Lichy, Jenna Lyons, Jessel Taank, and Brynn Whitfield.

"Underestimate [Sai] at your own peril," Andy warned Us when questioned about the cast member who astonished him the most. "Not only is she incredibly witty - her interviews are incredibly hilarious. But she's also formidable. Crossing paths with a disgruntled Sai is not something you want to experience."

As the network prepares to introduce six new women on Sunday, July 16, various original Housewives are making headlines due to the challenges in their marriages. Us recently confirmed that Kyle Richards from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and Mauricio Umansky have been "living apart for some time," but they currently have no intentions of initiating a divorce process.

When it comes to shock factor among the long list of Real Housewives breakups — there’s been more than 40 over the years — Kyle and Mauricio’s split ranks in the "top 10," according to Andy responding to Us.

"We have been in contact," he mentioned about Kyle.

In May, Kim Zolciak-Biermann and Kroy Biermann, former Housewife, submitted legal documents to terminate their 11-year marriage. However, they recently announced that they are retracting the petition.

After expressing his surprise at Kim and Kroy calling off their divorce after a brief conversation, Andy mentioned that he has not had any contact with Kim following the reconciliation news. Asked about his future communication with Kim, he humorously remarked, "Maybe I won't reach out, and then you'll write, 'Andy Cohen has no plans to contact Kim Z.!'"

On Wednesday, the network celebrated a significant achievement with Vanderpump Rules receiving two Emmy nominations, one of which was for Unstructured Reality Program.

Andy expressed his excitement on Threads, stating that he was "so pumped" about the recognition. However, he also mentioned that there were numerous past seasons of Housewives that also deserved acknowledgment. Specifically, he highlighted Atlanta season 9 and a few seasons of RHONY, mentioning that he could choose one from each city.
