<p id=”par-3_29″>“And I was really planning to “bring it” this season,” Rob commented on his wife’s April 15 <a href=”https://www.instagram.com/p/C5zF25Hp8VW/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>Instagram</a> post, where she announced she was exiting <em>RHOBH </em>after three seasons.</p>

<p id=”par-4_83″>Crystal and Rob made their <em>RHOBH </em>debut in season 11. One of Rob’s most memorable moments on the show came in season 12, when he showed off his dance moves at Garcelle Beauvais’ 55th birthday party. And at the end of season 13, he engaged in some classic Housewives pot-stirring when he speculated about who might have leaked the news of Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky’s separation to the press. (His theory? <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/morgan-wades-ex-believes-relationship-kyle-richards-rhobh-authentic.html/?swcfpc=1″>It was Morgan Wade</a>, whom Kyle was rumored to be dating.) </p>

<p id=”par-5_33″>Several fans said they’d be sad not to see more of Rob, who is an animator and director of movies such as <em>The Lion King </em>and <em>Stuart Little,</em> and his relationship with Crystal. </p>

<p id=”par-6_13″>“Hip Hop Rob is my FAVORITE,” one wrote in response to his comment. </p>

<p id=”par-7_5″>“We truly lost,” wrote another. </p>

<p id=”par-8_40″>“​​Each season we have gotten to know your family more & it is a huge loss for RHOBH,” chimed in another fan. “Loved you and Crystal being authentic and I hope to see more of you guys on another platform. </p>
