The way the fan base reacts to the show now is not how it was when I first started.
I mean, we were getting death threats.
Its a stupid show!
I thought: Its time to go.
Im not sure how much longer that can exist in the zeitgeist, to be honest with you.

Rinnas departure came a year after her mom Lois had died.
I was sleeping and I heard her say to me, Its time for you to go.'
Ive never told anybody that, except for the psychic.
Im guided by my mom, for sure.
It has been a fun 8-year run and I am excited for what is to come!'
