- Garcelle Beauvais confirms she is not returning to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and isn’t seeking to repair relationships with the cast.
- She values privacy and family time after five seasons on RHOBH, citing her teenage twins as a major reason for stepping away.
- Attempts by castmates to reconnect — including texts from Kyle Richards and Sutton Stracke — have reportedly gone unanswered.
Garcelle Beauvais says her RHOBH chapter is over
Garcelle Beauvais told People on Jan. 24 that her time on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is behind her. After five seasons on the Bravo series, she said she has no plans to “pick up her diamond” again and doesn’t expect her former castmates to either.
“I’m not looking for that, and I don’t think they are either,” she said, adding that “the past is the past.” Garcelle described her post-RHOBH life as quieter and more private — a change she welcomes.
Why she left: family and privacy
Garcelle first announced in March that she would not return to the franchise after season 14. In an Instagram video at the time, the Jamie Foxx Show alum cited both positive and difficult moments from her time on the show, and pointed to her 18-year-old twins, Jax and Jaid, as an important influence on her decision.
“My boys, their last year of high school is next year, and I want to be a part of that,” she said, emphasizing the value she places on family and privacy.
Exit caught on camera at the reunion
Her departure played out publicly as well. During the season 14 reunion, Garcelle walked off the set mid-reunion and declared, “I’m out,” a scene that surprised both castmates and host Andy Cohen.
That moment and her subsequent announcement set the stage for a fractured relationship with some former co-stars.
Cast response: texts and unanswered calls
Kyle Richards told E! in April that she had texted Garcelle twice but had not heard back. “I haven’t heard from her,” Kyle said, adding that she wishes Garcelle well and isn’t worried about her next chapter.
Sutton Stracke has also described the relationship as strained. During the season 15 premiere on Dec. 4, Sutton said she repeatedly texted Garcelle and received no response. “She was walking out on me and everybody else,” Sutton said of the reunion exit.
Garcelle, for her part, said she’s focused on moving forward rather than repairing old ties. She described her RHOBH run as “a good thing” and expressed appreciation for the privacy she now enjoys and the projects she’s pursuing.

What’s next
Garcelle continues to work on acting and other projects while prioritizing family life. She has not signaled any intention to return to the Bravo franchise and appears content keeping a lower public profile.
For fans tracking RHOBH relationships, Garcelle’s remarks make one thing clear: she’s closing that chapter and focusing on the next one.
