The internet exploded this week. A viral moment erupted during “Watch What Happens Live.” Andy Cohen unleashed a verbal assault that left viewers speechless. His target? Anti-LGBTQ activist Kim Davis. The same woman who defied federal marriage equality laws nearly a decade ago.
Davis recently petitioned the Supreme Court. She wants to overturn Obergefell v. Hodges. The landmark 2015 ruling legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. Cohen wasn’t having any of it.
Bravo Host Andy Cohen Delivers Scathing Rebuke Over Marriage Hypocrisy
Cohen delivered a brutal reality check that exposed Davis’s stunning hypocrisy. “Lady, you’ve been married four times to three different people, reportedly getting pregnant with husband number three while still married to husband number one,” he declared. The Bravo host’s voice dripped with contempt. His words cut through her sanctimonious facade. “And you want to lecture us on the sanctity of marriage?” The question hung in the air like a smoking gun.
The 56-year-old host escalated his attack. He targeted Davis’s audacity to challenge LGBTQ rights. “How about you take your high-body-count hair, bigoted, bump-it a** to therapy to figure out your relationship issues before you try to nuke our basic civil rights,” Cohen fired back. His finger pointed defiantly downward as he added the kicker, “Overturn this, lady!”
Happy Friday, Kim Davis. @Andy has some questions for you.

Why are you so concerned with same sex marriage when your marriages aren't working out? #DemsUnited pic.twitter.com/KYaV6hcS0O
Davis’s troubled marriage history reads like a soap opera script. She first married at 18 in 1986. The union crumbled after a decade. Five months after her divorce finalized, she bore twins with another man. Her second marriage followed in 1996 to Joe Davis, who adopted the twins. That relationship also dissolved by 2006. She briefly married the twins’ biological father in 2007. The marriage lasted less than a year before imploding.
Cohen’s takedown struck a nerve across social media platforms. The former Kentucky county clerk gained international notoriety in 2015. She refused to issue marriage licenses to same-sex couples despite federal court orders. Her defiance landed her in jail for contempt of court. She was released only after her staff issued the licenses without her involvement. Kentucky later changed its laws to remove county clerks’ names from marriage certificates entirely. Cohen’s savage commentary reminded everyone why Davis’s current crusade rings hollow.
