2026 is already shaping up to be a year of dramatic surprises for Bravo fans, with Andy Cohen taking the spotlight.

The "WWHL" host made a move during the reunion that was a first since being with Bravo from 2004. Though the other cast members influenced his act, nevertheless, this is a side of him that the screen has never seen.

Andy Cohen joined the franchise decades ago as the VP of Original Programming. He eventually became the Executive Vice President in later years and now focuses on hosting roles and production.

Bravo released a trailer for the season 6 reunion set to begin airing on January 13. In the clip, Cohen is shown walking off the set after an altercation between the cast members. 

The explosive clash caused the TV host to yell at the women, asking them to stop, before he ultimately decided to storm off the stage. Unlike other cast members, this marked the first time Cohen had walked off set in the franchise's 20-year history.

The trailer also showed a part with Mary Cosby beckoning to him to rethink his decision to stay on set. "No, Andy, please," she says, but he continues to walk off.

The reunion clip shows that other members of the cast, including Heather Gay, Witney Rose, Britani Bateman, and Bronwyn Newport, amongst others, were also present at the reunion.

Rose had an emotional spin and went off stage to have a minute with teary eyes. Lisa Barlow and Bateman had a scuffle, leaving the latter distraught and exiting the stage.

The preview also showed how Newport left her castmates stunned when she announced her separation from her husband. Gay and Meredith Marks were not left lying low as they had their share of intense altercations before the cameras.

Cohen appeared on Alex Cooper's podcast "Call Her Daddy" last year, where he did not hold back any details on his affairs. Cooper did not hold back with his questions, and as shared by The Blast, Cohen did justice to them with clear answers. 

The 57-year-old was asked if he had ever hooked up with a Bravo star, to which he firmly responded with a resounding no. He stated that it had never happened, adding that he understands the rules of the game.

Getting involved sexually with anyone on the network could cause major drama, but would have an adverse effect later on.

Cohen has previously been called out for his blossoming relationship with his friend Mayer. Being a gay man, speculations arose that he and the rock singer were more than just friends.

The TV host admitted that they have love for each other, but it was nothing more than platonic affection. He detailed that he was grateful for their relationship and even hoped to find a gay man who was like Mayer.

Although The Blast shares how Cohen recounts the physical aspect of their relationship, noting how their night out often ends with Mayer's arms wrapped around him, he also stressed that men with different sexual orientations can be purely just friends.
