Lisa Rinna Announces Memoir ‘You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It’

Ready or not, Lisa Rinna is telling all.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, 62, has authored books before — but not like this. Next February, the star is releasing her first-ever memoir, You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It, publisher Dey Street announced Wednesday, Sept. 24. And much like its author, the cover of the memoir — which PEOPLE can exclusively reveal — is bold and colorful.

Rinna appears not once, not twice, but thrice on the cover, rocking a blue mini dress paired with bright red gloves and tights. But it’s the title of the book — inspired by one of her most iconic RHOBH confessionals — that really “says it all,” the star says.

“I don’t know if everyone is ready for all of the truth I am unloading in this book,” Rinna tells PEOPLE in an exclusive statement. “But I was certainly ready to tell it.”

“Life comes with a lot of ups and downs, and so much of it gets lost ‘in the editing,’ if you will. It was time to share the director’s cut,” she adds. “I put so much of myself into this book; the good, the bad and the wackadoodle. It feels really good to see it finally come together.”

In other words, the star concluded, “The vault is open, honey!”

Preceded by 2009’s Rinnavation: Getting Your Best Life Ever and 2012’s The Big, Fun, Sexy Sex Book, You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It isn’t just Rinna’s first memoir, it’s also her first book in over a decade.

“From her career, to her personal life, to spilling all the tea,” an official synopsis reads. “If she’s experienced it … you better believe she’s gonna talk about it!” The same synopsis also quotes the author, who teases: “This mouth has gotten me in so much trouble.”

It’s not yet clear exactly what topics Rinna will touch on in the memoir, but knowing the RHOBH alum, it will be juicy. 

Outside of penning her first memoir, Rinna has kept busy since exiting RHOBH in January 2023. She has consistently drawn attention through her bold fashion choices at Fashion Weeks across the world and dove headfirst into her beauty line, Rinna Beauty.

This year, she also launched her Let’s Not Talk About the Husband podcast with husband Harry Hamlin, starred in Lifetime movie Mommy Meanest with daughter Delilah Hamlin and starred in a MAC campaign with daughter Amelia Gray Hamlin. (Rinna shares daughters Amelia, 24, and Delilah, 27, with Harry, 73, who is also dad to son Dimitri from a previous relationship.)

The star opened up about her busy life post-RHOBH last year, telling PEOPLE she “never would’ve thought that this would be happening in my life, and in my career at 60.”

“But I think there’s a reason for it,” she added, at the time. “I’m out here doing this to show people that you can do it. That we don’t stop at 60, that you can keep going.”

In the same interview, Rinna also said she feels “unstoppable.”

“I think I can do pretty much whatever I want to do. And I think everybody is unstoppable, and everyone can do what they want to do,” she told PEOPLE at the time. “You just got to believe it, manifest it and say, ‘I’m going to do this.’”
