What happened to Lois Rinna?

Rinna’s mother made multiple appearances on RHOBH throughout the years. Lois was an absolute delight to viewers as she was proof of a strong and resilient woman. Although Lois had not appeared much in the latter seasons of the Bravo reality series, fans always asked Rinna about her mom. Due to the pandemic, seeing Lois in person had become complicated throughout 2020 but Rinna kept in touch with her virtually. The actor had not updated fans on Lois in a while, until the night of Nov. 10 when she shared some heartbreaking news.

“I know how much you appreciate and LOVE Lois so I need to tell you that she has had a stroke, I am with her now, So lets celebrate her and send her so much love while she transitions,” Rinna posted on Instagram. “I was so conflicted to share this very very sad news with you, but I know you would want to know.”

Rinna’s statement was a caption in a video where Lois is seen dancing freely, just like her daughter often does on social media.
