"It's come to my attention that my post that I responded to in my housewife mode is taking on a life of its own, and it's causing real problems for Colton. I do not want this, because Colton and I are great. He was a great and is a great nemesis for me on the show, in the game. Now, as you know, if you asked me to be a housewife, I'll bring it to you, right? That's what I was doing, all in the name of the game."
"The fact that the backlash is happening, I feel horrible about because I don't want to hurt anybody. I am here to play the game and have fun. And Colton is a great nemesis for me. We had so much fun. I've only always had a great time with him. So please, guys, be gentle. It's a game. It's a TV show. We're all doing the best we can. Don't send death threats or do anything to jeopardize somebody's family."
"The cast of The Traitors are real people, and what happens in the game should never lead to cyberbullying or harassment. There's a difference between discussing a show and targeting individuals. Let's not ruin the passion for this show with unwarranted negativity and personal attacks."
Lisa Rinna expressed regret after a social-media post about Colton Underwood escalated and caused problems for him. Rinna explained she was in her "housewife" persona while playing the game and emphasized that she and Underwood are on good terms. She asked fans to stop sending threats or harassing cast members and reminded viewers that the show is a game and a TV production. The official Traitors account also urged fans to stop cyberbullying and distinguished between discussing the show and targeting individuals. The exchange referenced a past restraining order filed against Underwood by his ex, Cassie Randolph.
