“It was such a brutal season for me, and it was at a time where I was floundering,” sheadmitted earlier this weekonRuPaul. “Everybody always says, ‘Oh, you look like you’ve got your life together,’ but I started that show this season like, two or three months aftermy brother passed. I just wasn’t in the right space.”
“I actually did say, and we talked about it withAndy [Cohen]onWatch What Happens Live —he said: ‘I wish I’d given you the year off,’ ” she recalled. “I just wasn’t as prepared. I found that I couldn’t deal with something that I could normally deal with. So then it just went on and it was accumulative and in the end I just said, ‘I can’t do this anymore. I just can’t.’ “
