"We've had a fabulous run with all the ladies and appreciate them sharing their lives with our viewers," a Bravo representative told People.

"It is a friendly departure among the other ladies and we continue to have ongoing discussions with them."

McCord told People that she and her ubiquitous husband, Simon, were "sad" about being off the roster, but were talking with Bravo about other potential projects.
