Lisa Rinna has never been shy about expressing her feelings on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
And ahead of Wednesday’s episode of the hit Bravo reality series, the four-time Emmy nominee stepped out wearing an 18-karat yellow ‘f*** you’ necklace, by designer Jennifer Meyer.
After wrapping a video conference on her iPad outside a local Starbucks in Bel-Air, the 57-year-old reality star showed off her incredible figure in a fitted black tank top.

She seemed in high spirits, while stepping out braless in a pair of sweatpants and a SoulCycle fanny pack.
The mother-of-two’s outing comes hours before she aired her concerns about her RHOBH co-star and longtime pal, Denise Richards.
Just one week after the pair ‘vowed to be better friends to each other’ during their cast trip to Italy, Rinna began to question whether Richards had been ‘manipulating’ her.

After Brandi Glanville unveiled pages of text messages that she said showed proof that she had a relationship with Richards, 49, Rinna was left perplexed.
While the texts she shared with the RHOBH cast appeared innocent, without sexual innuendo, Glanville’s receipts made the group wonder why Richards denied they were close.
Dorit Kemsley, 44, defended Denise, noting that she’d never said she distanced herself from Brandi, only said they were not tight.

That set off Brandi, who’d gotten tired of being scrutinized.
‘I f***ing sucked on her f***king [censored],’ she yelled in frustration. ‘I have a close f***ing relationship with her, okay b****? Enough said!’
Rinna, who had been trying to repair her own relationship with Denise since the cast’s recent trip to Rome, expressed feeling duped.
Intimate friendship: Lisa considered, ‘I don’t have that relationship, texting-wise, with Denise. I don’t say, ”I love you honey, I love you baby.” This is a relationship. This is an intimate friendship’
Bite marks: ‘We were making out and then I bit her,’ Brandi said of one encounter. ‘I left marks’
She eyeballed one in which Denise told Brandi her loyalty would never change, and wrote, ‘I still care and love you.’
In Rome, Denise had told Lisa she’d only seen Brandi only a couple of times in her life, yet there were a flood of affectionate messages to look at.
Lisa considered, ‘I don’t have that relationship, texting-wise, with Denise. I don’t say, ‘I love you honey, I love you baby.’ This is a relationship. This is an intimate friendship.’

All the drama went down at Teddi’s surprise baby shower, to which Brandi was invited.
The cast told the Drinking & Tweeting author that Denise had denied hooking up with her.
Brandi was horrified to hear what Denise said, and countered with some juicy information.

‘We were making out and then I bit her,’ she said of one encounter. ‘I left marks.’
She claimed that Denise had wanted to blame the bite marks on a corset she was wearing for a movie she’d been shooting.
‘Then I thought, ”Okay, I have to keep this secret. I’m a cheater”,’ Brandi recalled. ‘I hate cheaters. I was cheated on and I would never do it.’
‘I thought my friend would have told me the truth. There’s sadness in that, because then I go, ‘Well, what else has Denise lied to me about over the years?’ Lisa said in a confessional
‘This is about shutting me up to make sure I never let anyone know, especially women in our group, that this happened,’ Brandi added.
The day after Teddi’s shower, Lisa told Kyle Richards she doesn’t ‘like to be lied to’ and found Brandi’s story to be ‘real convincing.’
‘I thought my friend would have told me the truth. There’s sadness in that, because then I go, ‘Well, what else has Denise lied to me about over the years?’ she said in a confessional.
Real convincing: ‘Brandi was real convincing,’ Lisa admitted. ‘I want to stick up for my friend. I want to say, ”You know what, Brandi? I don’t believe you.” And guess what? I can’t do that’
‘I want to stick up for my friend. I want to be able to say, ‘You know what, Brandi, I don’t believe you.’ And guess what? I can’t do that,’ Lisa said to Kyle.
Upon further examining her emotional heart-to-heart with Denise, Lisa feared the Wild Things actress was intentionally pulling at her heart strings.
In a confessional, Lisa shared, ‘It feels like Denise has weaponized our friendship and used everything she can to make me feel guilty. ‘Lisa, you know better. You know what my poor kids have been through.’
Be yourself: On Thursday, Lisa seemed to address the plethora of hateful comment on her jaw-dropping dance to to Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s hit track, WAP
‘What if she’s manipulating me? What if I’m being manipulated in all of this too?’ Lisa asked herself. ‘I mean, I don’t know. I feel duped. Maybe I’m a big, fat fool. I don’t like that feeling.’
On Thursday, Lisa seemed to address the plethora of hateful comments on her recent jaw-dropping dance video to Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s track, WAP.
‘Don’t let ANYONE ever make you feel less than of guilty because of your freedom of movement and expression,’ she told her 2.5 million Instagram followers, after dancing on the floor in a skin-tight leotard.
