The Clubhouse is in mourning.
Andy Cohen broke down in tears during the June 25 episode of Watch What Happens Live while sharing heartbreaking news that one of the show’s staff had died.
“Before we go tonight, I have some devastating news to share from our Watch What Happens Live family,” a visibly emotional Andy said at the end of the show. “This is hard for me to get through, but, on Tuesday night, our beloved former production manager Kyra Samson passed away from brain cancer. She was only 28.”
The 58-year-old remembered his late coworker’s hard work on the front lines of pop culture fandom.
“During her four wonderful years with us, Kyra was known for her sweet smile and gentle demeanor,” Andy continued, “but she could also be a small but mighty enforcer. To see Kyra on a bullhorn corralling massive crowds at BravoCon was truly a sight to behold.”
