Lisa Vanderpump Details Bloody Restaurant Attack

A Real Housewife of Beverly Hills was involved in a real messy, violent situation early this morning.

As detailed to TMZ by Lisa Vanderpump herself, this reality star was dining at the Beverly Hills Polo Lounge with her husband and another couple when a man at another table started in with the harassment.

Vanderpump quoted the "extremely drunk" man as saying:

"I've seen the show. You're wearing a lot more make-up now, and your eyes are darker and smokier. What are you doing sitting with old people?"

It's not easy being a rich reality TV star.

At this, Lisa's husband, reporter Robert Kovacik, walked over and asked the man to quiet down. He allegedly responded by striking Kovacik in the face and pushing him to the ground.

Police were called to the scene, but Vanderpump and Kovacik did not press charges. *

Instead, they went to the home of Dr. Paul Nassif (the husband of Lisa's co-star, Adrienne Maloof) and took care of Robert's injuries there. Vanderpump says the attacker was "outrageous" and hopes Robert does bring charges against him.

Of course, because this is a reality TV star we're talking about, it must be asked: were cameras around at the time of the confrontation?

* UPDATE: Hours later, the couple returned to the police station and requested that charges be filed.
