Andy Cohen talked about the whole situation recently on Radio Andy. Cohen noted that after his public apology, everyone started to ask him why did he actually yell at Larsa Pippen. The host said that he usually doesn’t editorialize, but he did it with The Real House Wives of Miami.

He revealed, “Basically Larsa was kind of it seemed to me weaponizing to Nicole that her child was born out of wedlock.”

The popular Entertainment host noted that Nicole was not happy about it and asked Larsa whether she was calling her son a “bastard”. But Larsa denied it. However, it was pretty obvious that she was implying the same.

Cohen added, “So then I said that was an a**hole thing to say to her, and I was pretty heated about it. And it will come as no surprise to anyone why I got so heated. I’m a single dad of two children.”
