Cohen denied on his SiriusXM radio Wednesday that an off-color quip about a turkey baster led to Dorinda's exit. “She said something at the reunion that struck us all, which was that she should’ve taken the year off this year,” he said. “She was in a bad place.” Cohen added that he’d be happy to welcome her back into the fold once she’s been “renewed and refreshed.”
