Tori Spelling Thinks Andy Cohen Hasn't Asked Her to Join “RHOBH” 'Cause I'm Broke': 'Let’s Be Real'

Spelling recalled Cohen telling her that he couldn't "see" her being part of the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' despite her interest in being cast on the hit Bravo series

Tori Spelling is opening up about why she wasn't invited to join the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

On the April 19 episode of her podcast misSPELLING, the Beverly Hills, 90210 alum, 50, shared her response when fans ask why she hasn’t been cast on the hit Bravo series.

"I'm like, I don't know," Spelling said. "Once, I asked Andy Cohen, who I love and have known forever, been on his show many times. He was like, 'Yeah, we keep getting this question.'"

"And I'm like, 'So, Andy, what's the answer?'” she continued. "He was like, 'Ehh, I don't know. You and the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills? I can't see it.'"

The actress recalled Cohen, 55, asking her if she already knew the cast of the series.

In response, she told the Housewives executive, “Every single one of them I am friends with and have known forever and have a history.”

She then referenced her part as Donna Martin on Beverly Hills, 90210, saying, “But whoa, whoa, whoa, wasn't I the OG Beverly Hills? I don't understand."

However, Spelling divulged on the podcast that she wanted to directly address the casting decision with Cohen, saying, "What I really want to say to him, and I'm a little passive aggressive, so I'm like, 'Huh! All the fans ask, Andy, so I don't know, whatever, that's fine. What I wanted to say is, 'Uh, is it 'cause I'm broke? Let's be real.'"

Back in 2019, Spelling — who filed for divorce from Dean McDermott last month after 18 years of marriage — addressed a fan's speculation that she mismanages her money following years of reports about her financial woes.

“I am not great with money, and I know a lot of people read a lot of stuff about my financial things going on,” Spelling, daughter of the late successful TV mogul Aaron Spelling, admitted in her Kin web series. “I had a business manager since I was 18 years old, so I never handled any of my money. Everything, everything, went to them, so unfortunately, I never quite learned about money. Now raising kids of my own, I'm like, that is so important.”

“And because I've never been good with money, I wasn't ever taught to deal with money properly, that's something that's really important for me to do as I'm learning myself now in my 40s,” she continued. “I really want my kids to know that before they move out on their own.”

That same year, Spelling discussed the possibility of joining RHOBH during a conversation with BH90210 costar Jennie Garth and host Jenny McCarthy on Sirius XM’s The Jenny McCarthy Show.

“They never asked me … and it actually makes me really sad,” Spelling shared as Garth, 52, said she had previously been approached to join.

“They asked me,” Garth said, explaining that she declined because she’s the “furthest thing from a desperate housewife.”

Spelling then seemed to make her case to be cast as a diamond-holding Housewife. “Well, I was born in Beverly Hills, so I have one thing going for me,” she said, adding, “I’m married with a lot of kids, drama follows me everywhere.”

Though Spelling reiterated that Bravo “never asked me,” McCarthy laughingly said: “I have a feeling you might get the shout-out now.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is now streaming on Peacock.
