Kelly Dodd Gets Grilled by Andy Cohen Over Coronavirus Comments, Accuses Braunwyn Windham-Burke of Faking Alcoholism

Making amends … then starting new controversies? Kelly Dodd was in the hot seat during the Wednesday, December 2, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen.

Andy Cohen kicked off Wednesday’s episode of his late-night show grilling the 45-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County star about her past comments about the coronavirus pandemic.

“Of course I regret saying [coronavirus was God’s way of thinning the herd]. I mean at the time, it was a question, like, ‘Why are all these people dying?’” Dodd said about her first controversial comment. “It was a stupid thing for me to say. It was insensitive and I apologize if I hurt or offended anybody because that wasn’t really my intention. I got, like, freaked out about in hindsight it was the stupidest thing I’ve ever said.”

Cohen, 52, went on to read a viewer question about Dodd’s refusal to wear a mask. While the Bravo star claimed she was “misinformed” and she made her remarks that “no one is dying” of COVID-19 in Orange County “back in January,” she actually made headlines for the comment in May.

“I hate [wearing a mask]. I’m claustrophobic. I can’t stand wearing a mask,” she said. “Now I understand the science behind it and I’m really, willing and able to wear a mask and I know that it’s important because I don’t want to get sick and I want to get others sick.”

After asking Dodd about the “Drunk Wives Matter” hat she sported at her bridal shower over the summer — she maintained the hat was a gift and she supports the Black Lives Matter movement — Cohen suggested the Housewife get off the Internet.

“You’ve had such a bad run on social media. I mean I get tweets and DMs … since this whole thing started saying, ‘You gotta control her, you have to stop her,’ this and that and the other. I mean, at some point, it seems like you need to think before you post,” Cohen said.

Dodd replied that she’s a “human being who makes mistakes” and noted everyone has “regrets.” – Source
