Lisa Rinna names ‘biggest bully in Hollywood’ who made her life ‘hell’

Lisa Rinna just claimed one of her former Days of Our Lives co-stars was the 'biggest bully in Hollywood' in her bombshell new memoir.

The 62-year-old American actress just released a new book, You Better Believe I'm Gonna Talk About It, which dives into her career and personal life.

Ever since the memoir was published on Tuesday (24 February), fans have been discussing the jaw-dropping details and stories the TV personality has shared - and it's proved that she's certainly not afraid to name-drop.

She talked about her time on the NBC show, where she played Billie Reed from 1992 to 1995 and reprised the role multiple times in the decades that followed.

However, according to the actress, things weren't all smooth sailing behind the scenes as she claimed that Robert Kelker-Kelly, who played her on-screen love interest Bo Brady, made her life 'a living hell'.

According to MailOnline, she penned in her book: "Behind the scenes, we hated each other. Remember when Kathy Hilton said I was the biggest bully in Hollywood? Not true. Not even close! I have legit stories about the real bullies in this town."

She claimed that Kelker-Kelly was 'one of those bullies', adding: "He made my life a living hell on the set of Days. He was horrible to me. I’d go so far as to say verbally abusive. He was passive-aggressive, manipulative, and played weird mind games."

Rinna further alleged that he would give her the 'silent treatment' if she 'didn’t do what he wanted' in scenes.

Calling him a 'ticking time bomb', the reality TV star continued: "I never knew when I arrived on set each morning if I’d get nice Robert Kelker-Kelly or dark Robert Kelker-Kelly. He was unpredictable, and it was exhausting."

The actress was reportedly relieved when he departed the show in 1995 and was replaced by Peter Reckell, who had originally played the role of Bo Brady from 1983 to 1992.

She then claimed that after his exit, Rinna and her co-star, Kristian Alfonso, who played Hope Brady, another love interest of the actress, were given their own security team by NBC.

However, Rinna made it clear she thought this was unnecessary, as Kelker-Kelly wasn't a threat.

She explained: "Suddenly, one day, he disappeared from the Days set. Next thing I knew, Kristian and I had our own full-time security detail.

"I wasn't worried about physical harm, but NBC had to cover their ass. We had rent-a-cops parked outside out houses and trailers for three weeks and were driven to and from work."

It's actually not the first time Rinna has spoken out about Kelker-Kelly, as she previously claimed in 2015 that they had butted heads.

Not mincing her words, the Real Housewives of Beverley Hills star told Bravo: "I hated Robert Kelker-Kelly; hated him with a passion!

"He hated me with a passion. We were a volatile combination, and it looked like love and sexual chemistry on camera, so that was some darn good acting right there."

After appearing on Days of Our Lives, Kelker-Kelly went on to play Stavros Cassadine in General Hospital from 2001 to 2003 and from 2013 to 2014.

However, he has since left the acting business and become a pilot, later transitioning to captain and aircraft manager.
