Real Housewives of Beverly Hills<\/em><\/a> stars Bozoma Saint John<\/strong><\/a> and Erika Jayne<\/strong><\/a> reacted to Garcelle Beauvais\u2019<\/strong><\/a> departure after learning she had decided to quit the show after five seasons.<\/p>\n \u201cI am disappointed that she is departing like this,\u201d Bozoma, 48, said during an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen<\/em><\/a> on Tuesday, March 25. \u201cI wish she would have stuck around to work out another season.\u201d<\/p>\n Bozoma, who just joined the cast in season 14<\/a>, later added, \u201cI don\u2019t think [she left] on a high note.\u201d<\/p>\n While Erika, 53, spent the majority of Watch What Happens Live<\/em> giving snarky quips about Garcelle\u2019s exit, she did get a bit sentimental toward the end.<\/p>\n \u201cGarcelle, I just really wish you stuck it out. I just really do,\u201d she said. \u201cI know that I\u2019ve been catty tonight. I know you\u2019ll do well, but I just wish you stuck it out.\u201d<\/p>\n Garcelle, 58, announced she was leaving RHOBH<\/em><\/a> just hours before Bravo released the preview for season 14\u2019s explosive reunion.<\/p>\n \u201cHey guys. So I have some news. I\u2019ve decided to leave Beverly Hills<\/em>. It\u2019s been a wild ride. I mean, some amazing things have happened, and some hard things have also happened, but it\u2019s been a ride nevertheless,\u201d Garcelle said in a video shared to Instagram<\/a>. \u201cOne of the reasons why I\u2019m leaving is my family, my boys, their last year of high school is next year and I want to be a part of that. And Jade is starting a new career and I want to be a part of that too. And secondly, I have the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing and acting in. I can\u2019t tell you anything right now, but you\u2019ll know soon.\u201d<\/p>\n The mom of one went on to thank several people and organizations including Andy Cohen<\/strong>, NBCUniversal, Bravo and \u201cof course, the ladies\u201d before continuing.<\/p>\n \u201cAndy Cohen says I can come back anytime. The door will always be open, so you never know, I might pop back in sometime. To the fans: I want to say thank you so much. You guys have cheered me on, supported me, and sometimes even fought for me or on my behalf,\u201d Garcelle went on. \u201cIt means a lot and I hope you guys will continue on this journey with me. It\u2019s not goodbye, it\u2019s see you later \u2014 so see you later.\u201d<\/p>\n Fans later got to see the moment Garcelle seemingly made her decision to end her run on the popular reality TV series during the season 14 reunion preview.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m really pissed right now. So, I don\u2019t want to answer any more questions, honestly \u2026 I am just so f\u2013king sick of it,\u201d Garcelle shouted in the clip<\/a> as she walked off the stage.<\/p>\n She continued her rant backstage, \u201cI can\u2019t be friends with people like that. I don\u2019t trust them. They\u2019re all f\u2013king a\u2013holes.\u201d<\/p>\n Garcelle joined the cast of RHOBH<\/em><\/a> in 2020 and became the series\u2019 first Black cast member. She later joked about joining the show and called it her \u201cmidlife crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI feel like, \u2018Why not?\u2019 I wanted to do something outside of the box \u2014 it is sort of like my midlife crisis,\u201d Garcelle told People<\/em><\/a> during a January 2020 interview. \u201cInstead of buying a Corvette or doing something crazy, I joined the Housewives<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
