RHOBH Alum Lisa Rinna on Time Amelia Gray Developed Sepsis at Coachella After Nipple Piercing
There’s nothing worse than falling into a bush at Coachella with a fresh nipple piercing and winding up with a sepsis-filled breast. Just ask Ameila Gray, the daughter of
Lisa Rinna says daughter Amelia Gray required IV antibiotics for the infection
Lisa’s iconic lips were moving at record speed during the latest episode of her podcast, Let’s Not Talk About the Husband. She co-hosts it with her husband and bolognese expert, Harry Hamlin. On the September 5 episode, they talked about their daughter’s unfortunate Coachella experience, which might make you think twice before getting your nips pierced.
“In the teenage years, I’m gonna say when everybody was like 19, yeah, there was some nipple piercing going on,” Lisa began, noting that their other daughter, Delilah Belle, also got hers done.
“I think it’s a cautionary tale,” she continued. “She was, like, up on a balcony. Somebody pushed her, like, pushing forward. And her boob went into, like a bush, and it jammed the nipple into the boob.”
The situation took a serious turn when they got home that night. Rinna said her daughter had a “super high fever” and they noticed her boob started swelling up to a “humungous” size. They rushed her to the emergency room.
“We thought maybe something was wrong with her ribs. She knew that she’d been pushed,” Rinna recalled.
Of course, it wasn’t a rib. It was a nipple, and the doctors had to act fast to save it.
“We didn’t know what to do, so we called an infectious disease doctor. She had to go to the infectious disease doctor. She had sepsis,” Lisa continued. “Sepsis in her freaking boob.”
Fortunately, they caught the infection before it could do any serious damage. After a week on IV antibiotics, Amelia and her nipple made a full recovery. However, the health scare prompted both Amelia and Delliah to do away with their piercings. The end of an era.
“[Delilah] took them out, too, because Amelia’s tale was very cautionary, and nobody wanted to die because they had a freaking nipple ring,” Lisa concluded.
REPORT: Tamra Judge is Threatening to Quit RHOC & Gave Producers an Ultimatum, Plus Tamra Addresses Claim

Has Tamra Judge dealt Real Housewives of Orange County producers with an ultimatum?
Following last Thursday’s episode of season 19, which saw Gretchen Rossi, 46, claiming she cheated on her husband,
“Tamra won’t stand for being lied about and damn well won’t stand for lies spread about her family,” an insider told The U.S. Sun on September 19. “When Gretchen announced she was coming back, Tamra was excited because she cares about making the best show possible above all else. Turns out that little reality dream has been a nightmare.”
“It’s at the point now where Tamra may have to give production an ultimatum. Because as of right now, if Gretchen comes back next season, Tamra wants nothing to do with it. She’s made that clear [with producers.] Tamra wants to focus on her marriage and her healthy friendships outside the show. But you know Tam, never say never when it comes to her show,” they went on.
During last week’s episode, Gretchen was seen making the bombshell allegation about Tamra to their co-stars, Heather Dubrow, 56, and Emily Simpson, 49.
Continuing on, the insider said that while Tamra “is the show,” she’s also “so much more outside of the TV screen.”
“Tamra has already talked with her attorneys about pursuing legal action against Gretchen and the claims she continues to make against her and her family. She is having a meeting with her legal team on Monday and will go over all of her options. She didn’t want it to get to this but Gretchen won’t keep her mouth shut and is spreading lies,” they explained.
The U.S. Sun’s report comes just days after Tamra was asked if she was allowed to sue her co-stars for defamation on Instagram.
“Let’s just say I have a meeting with my attorney on Monday,” she replied.
Then, after someone else questioned her about a season 20 return, Tamra gave a nod to the cast’s lack of empathy amid her struggles with Teddi Mellencamp‘s cancer battle.
“The amount of s**t talking about me behind my back by EVERYONE is gross. I was going through a really hard time back then emotionally. I was trying my hardest to put one foot in front of the other,” she shared.
Meanwhile, in a third post shared to her Instagram Story, Tamra reacted to The U.S. Sun’s report.
“That is not true … As [Kandi Burruss] once said, ‘The lies, the lies, the lies!” she declared.
The Real Housewives of Orange County season 19 airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
