The reality star was also asked her thoughts on Lisa Vanderpump returning to RHOBH, which she doesn’t see happening. “She’s a coward that ran away and couldn’t show up for the reunion and, so, I don’t think that’s a good fit,” Girardi said.

“Now it’s time to move on,” Hamlin added. “Eight years is a long time to do anything, the same thing over and over again. It’s time to move along.”
