Dorinda was fired from The Real Housewives Of New York City in 2020 after six seasons, leading to a flurry of rumors about the reason.
An insider sensationally claimed that Page Six that Dorinda had a tendency to be “mean” when she was drunk, which led to her leaving.
During her final season on the series, Dorinda repeatedly clashed with her co-star Tinsley Mortimer, most notably when she joked about Tinsley’s fertility issues.
Dorinda gleefully joked that Tinsley could use an eyedropper to impregnate herself — a joke Tinsley described as “gross.”

A source claimed that The sun last fall that it was this outburst that caused Dorinda to lose her job at the network.
“There’s nothing Bravo hates more than when cast members break the fourth wall. The second time Dorinda did that, she basically handed in her resignation!” the insider said.
“Producers hate it when they bring the show into the plot. Sure, Dorinda’s not the nicest drunk, but she tells it like it is.”
A year after Dorinda was fired, her former co-star Luann De Lesseps said the show had become “a little less angry” since her departure.
I hate to say it because there was a lot of anger and a lot [negativity] and I love Dorinda. It’s just the way it happened,” Luann said We weekly.
