The “Coming to America” star first appeared in the series in 2020 and remained until the end of season 14. In her departure video, where she addressed the “wild ride” the journey has been, Beauvais thanked the fans and the network for giving her the chance to be the first Black woman to hold a diamond.
However, a source close to the show’s production claimed Garcelle Beauvais wasn’t as gracious before quitting. In fact, they’re alleging she had a huge fight with the company, which left her “really pissed.”

According to OK Magazine, a source close to “RHOBH” reported that Beauvais had a major fight with network executives before the reunion was taped on February 28.
“There was definitely an incident in which Garcelle got into it with Bravo,” they said before claiming it involved her Housewives bestie, Sutton Stracke.
The details of the alleged argument have been kept under wraps; however, the source revealed Beauvais was “really pissed.”

In her goodbye message, posted on March 25, 2025, Beauvais told her fans that she was departing the series for many reasons.
The first concerned her teenage sons, Jax and Jaid, who will begin their final year of high school in the fall. The other involved her busy career as an actress.
“I have the most exciting projects that I am developing, producing, and acting in — I can’t tell you anything now, but you’ll know soon,” she said.
In the most recent report from OK, the source also commented on Beauvais’ exit, saying it likely came because of her underwhelming storyline and feud with newcomer Bozoma Saint John.

“Bozoma Saint John, the newest Housewife who Garcelle had issues with, does have a storyline,” they shared. “She is possibly going to marry the guy she’s dating and is exploring having a baby with him. She just came off to viewers as way more interesting than Garcelle did.”
Bravo has denied the claims that Beauvais was fired.

Following Beauvais’ exit, Kempire, a popular YouTuber and trusted blogger, revealed that Saint John allegedly blindsided her during the reunion.
In a video shared online, Kempire claimed Saint John mentioned Beauvais’ unsavory comments about Dorit Kemsley‘s 2021 home invasion, where she was robbed at gunpoint with her children inside.
But that’s not the only thing that made Beauvais want to bounce. Kempire also said Saint John caught Beauvais off guard when she pointed to the latter’s alleged unwillingness to defend her after their co-star, Stracke, made questionable comments about her behavior during the “RHOBH” after-show.

On his radio show, “Radio Andy,” Andy Cohen, who many refer to as Bravo’s patriarch, opened up about Beauvais’ decision to depart the series.
“She had a reunion that you will see play out, and I’m not gonna [speak on it]; you’ll just watch it,” he told his co-host before revealing she didn’t leave “in a good place” with the other women.
Later, Cohen said he had a conversation with Beauvais when she landed in New York City in March 2025 and described it as “one of the most real” he’s ever had.
According to him, after finishing his talk with Beauvais, the latter decided to choose herself rather than the show. However, he said he’s open to her return and encouraged her to call the network “in a year” if she’s up for a comeback.
Under Beauvais’ Instagram video, several fans flooded the comment section to praise the “Jamie Foxx Show” actress for providing viewers with five seasons of entertaining television.
Someone wrote, “Cheers to you for coming [to] help revitalize the show. “You will be missed.”
Another user claimed the show would “be terrible” without Beauvais, adding, “I MISS YOU ALREADY.”
Bravo stars, including Stracke, weighed in on the news, too.
“Congratulations to your next chapter,” she wrote. “Can’t wait to see what’s up your sleeve. Nothing but greatness. This I know.”
Cohen wrote: “An incredible run from an incredible human.”
Phaedra Parks, who will rejoin “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” later in season 16, also showed support for Beauvais, writing, “May God’s greatest blessings always be yours!”
