- Lisa Rinna claims she was drugged with fentanyl at the *Traitors *season 4 premiere party in January.

- "I had fentanyl, high levels of amphetamines and other things," the *Melrose Place *star claimed. "But I can’t talk a lot about it, because we're still dealing with it."

- Rinna declined to state whether she believes she knows who is behind the alleged drugging, but thanked her husband, Harry Hamlin, for being "able to get me out of there."

Lisa Rinna is opening up about a harrowing experience at a recent *Traitors** *premiere party.

TMZ first reported on Monday that the pop culture icon was allegedly "roofied" at a premiere celebration for the fourth season of the hit reality competition series, which features Rinna and several beloved reality stars. The party took place at The Abbey, a popular gay bar in the West Hollywood neighborhood of Los Angeles, on Jan. 8.

Now, Rinna herself has confirmed the speculation. When asked on Thursday by Fox 5 host Rosanna Scotto if she knew "for certain" that she was drugged, Rinna replied, "Well, I do."

"I had fentanyl in my system," Rinna said, confirming when Scotto asked if she took "a test" to verify the suspicion. "I'm not kidding. I had fentanyl, high levels of amphetamines, and other things. But I can’t talk a lot about it, because we're still dealing with it. It was leaked, and my team is dealing with it now."

Rinna declined to state if she believes anyone in particular at the party was responsible for the alleged drugging, but expressed gratitude that her husband of 28 years, Harry Hamlin, "was there and able to get me out of there."

Temporary Fox 5 cohost and Rinna's fellow Bravolebrity, Jerry O'Connell, asked the *Melrose Place *alum what she thinks can be done to prevent such incidents.

"Well, I don't know," she said, claiming, "So many people that I know have had this happen at The Abbey — all my daughters' friends. I mean, this is not a first-time thing... and I do think it needs to be a conversation."

The Abbey opened in 1991, and moved to its current location in the heart of West Hollywood's bar district in 1994. New owner Tristan Schukraft addressed "wild conspiracy theories" of drinks regularly being spiked there in 2024, calling it "a widespread issue, not just something unique to us."

"If we see anyone tampering with a drink, they are immediately removed, handed over to law enforcement, and permanently banned," he said.

Rinna has been at the heart of some of the most talked-about drama from the fourth season of *The Traitors*, which winds down to a dramatic finale on Thursday.

Regarding rumors that *Bachelor *alum Colton Underwood stormed out of the season 4 reunion after getting into an argument with Rinna, the actress told EW, "I didn't see it myself... I saw him leave, but I saw other people leave, too, to go to the bathroom and such, but it took a long time for people to come back. That I can share with you."
