Lisa Rinna Addresses Harry Hamlin's Sexuality With Confession on Their Sex Life

Published: Mar 04 2026

Lisa Rinna has no intention of keeping her lips tightly sealed. In her new book, "You Better Believe I'm Gonna Talk About It," the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum has set the record straight on the persistent rumors that her husband, Harry Hamlin, is gay. According to Just Jared, she explains that these rumors started after Harry played a gay man in the 1982 film "Making Love."

"When you're a handsome man in Hollywood with a keen sense of style, it's only natural for people to wonder if you're gay," Lisa writes in the book. "But let me make this abundantly clear: Harry is 100% heterosexual." The Traitors star adds, "He's not gay in any shape, form, or manner, and there's nothing wrong with that."

After all, Lisa—who tied the knot with Harry in 1997—confirms that their sex life remains as strong as ever. "Even if we don't do it as often as we used to, when we do, it's just as good as it's ever been," the 62-year-old actress continues. "After all these years, Harry and I still feel like a team."

Outside of the bedroom, Lisa—a mother to daughters Delilah Belle, 27, and Amelia, 24, with Harry—recently shared that their teamwork was crucial in preparing for the release of her book. "He's a voracious reader and incredibly intelligent, so I was very nervous for him to read it," she told E! News last week. "But he really liked it. He thought I was very brave and vulnerable, and he thought I did a great job."

In fact, the Days of Our Lives actress emphasizes that Harry was "really moved" by her reflections on their marriage, the loss of her parents, her postpartum experience, and her career. "He teared up and said he was moved throughout," she explains. "It's a snapshot of our life, the last 34 years we've been together." And Harry's approval was "the most validating" because, as Lisa puts it, "I care what he thinks more than anybody."
