Lisa Rinna has confirmed she will not return as a cast member of the 13th season of "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills."

Rinna, 59, told People Magazine that after eight seasons as a cast member and crowd favorite, she would not be returning and would instead pursue other career opportunities.

"This is the longest job I have held in my 35-year career, and I am grateful to everyone at Bravo and all those involved in the series," said "The Days of Our Lives" alum. "It has been a fun eight-year run, and I am excited for what is to come!"

Rinna's contract expired at the end of last season. She told People that executives at Bravo agreed she should not return to film later this year.

Rinna did not confirm earlier last month after E! News asked her whether she was open to returning to the series after wrapping up what she called her "hardest season" in October.

"We'll see," Rinna also said in the interview. "We're just going to see what happens, whatever God has in store for us. We never know. You never know."

"RHOBH" executive producer Andy Cohen also announced on the Nov. 21 episode of "E! News" that the reality series would take a "minute break" and resume shooting in 2023.

Rinna approved the break, saying it was necessary.

"I think that it was needed after that. It was a very intense season," she said. "I think that they're smart over there at Bravo, and I don't think it hurts anybody to take a break."

One of the more controversial disagreements in the 12th season was her feud with Kathy Hilton, which began after the socialite's meltdown during the cast's Aspen trip. A breakdown that Rinna would later refer to as a "psychotic break."

Hilton denied Rinna's claims and defended herself at last year's "Beverly Hills" reunion, saying, "You're the biggest bully in Hollywood, and everyone knows it."

Hilton told Page Six in October that it is "nice" to have most of the Bravo audience on her side and "appreciates" the support, but admits she never knew how she'd be received on the show.

Rinna also said she was happy to "have the number one show on cable on Bravo of the 'Housewives'" and said that she was not surprised by "RHOBH" fans calling her out on her many onscreen antics.

"It's a TV show, for God's sake," she shared. "Call me whatever you want, believe whatever you want, I tell the truth. I always have. Go back to that."
