The Mazel of the Day in the October 5 episode of WWHL was dedicated to Coco, whom Andy remembered as the best furry sidekick to Ramona on The Real Housewives of New York City. "Coco was a RHONY institution and an OG dog of Bravo, who in good times and tough times served as Ramona's loyal companion, confidante, and friend," Andy shared. "Tonight I'm sending all my love to you, Singer family, as we remember the many moments when Coco made us smile."

A montage of the pup's cutest and most memorable moments from RHONY then played, after which Andy said, "Rest in peace, Coco."

Earlier in the day, Ramona honored Coco's memory on Instagram. "My heart is broken after the passing of my dear little Coco. Coco was in our lives for 17 years and was like another child to me. She was truly a family member [and] my sidekick on [RHONY]," Ramona shared, along with a collection of photos with her dog. "Coco brought so much joy to us over the years and will be incredibly missed. I love you so much Coco…your memory will always live on with us."

Several members of the Bravo family shared their condolences in the comments section of Ramona's Instagram post, including Luann de Lesseps, Leah McSweeney, Teresa Giudice, Aviva Drescher, Bershan Shaw, and Brad Goreski.

Ramona's daughter, Avery Singer, first announced the news of Coco's passing in a post on Instagram on October 5. "To my Coco Baby who has been by my side for 17.5 years and all the milestones of my life that I can remember - I will treasure our memories forever and my heart is full knowing we had a one of a kind bond," Avery wrote. "Words can’t describe my love for you. I am forever grateful for all of our special memories. I will miss bringing you around in your stroller, purse, and sitting with me at the table. I hope you will have unlimited parmesan cheese…we all love you so much."

Avery's post also featured a series of photos of the RHONY family with Coco through the years. "Rest in Peace my sweet angel," she concluded her tribute.

Avery later took to her Instagram Stories to share that she was "grateful for all the love and support," sharing photos of the many flowers and gifts she has received following Coco's passing. "This is amazing," Avery wrote in her Instagram Stories. "Coco was loved by so many."
