Not responsible.

Andy Cohen is blissfully enjoying the fact that, for once, he isn’t the one who has to answer for a Housewives indiscretion. The Bravo exec expressed no sympathy for Jill Zarin, who was unceremoniously booted from E!’s RHONY reboot series after making racist comments about Bad Bunny’s halftime show. “If you want a further comment, call E!,” Cohen said on his Sirius XM radio show Andy Cohen Live. He then provided a bunch of comments anyway.
In a slow, deliberate drawl, Cohen noted that the firing happened to “someone who was let go in season four [of RHONY], talked about it with me so much on-camera, off-camera, was finally coming back, and then a week after the announcement …”
Instead of finishing that thought, he brought up the humiliating fact that Zarin Fabrics, a company started by Zarin’s late husband, Bobby, posted a photo to its Instagram with a big red “X” over Jill Zarin’s face. “I will never get over the sight of the Zarin Fabrics Instagram account posting a picture of Jill with an X over her face,” Cohen said, a little smugly. “I never thought that I would see the day.” Then, he got a little rascally and spilled some tea. “I heard from her a few weeks ago about a reunion set that she said had terrible rugs and she was like, ‘You should get some rugs at Zarin Fabric,’” he said. “When I saw the Zarin Fabric post, I was like, ‘Oh my God, the walls are crumbling.’”
