    Kim Richards: Former “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” Star Talks Last Words She Shared With Ex Monty Brinson Before He Died

    Kim Richards was with her ex-husband, Monty Brinson, when he passed away at the age of 58 in January. Now, in a new interview with Entertainment Tonight, the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shares the last words she spoke to Brinson before he died.

    “I said, ‘I love you,’ and then I felt him just kind of leave, and it was shocking,” Kim Richards explains. “I just didn’t expect it.”

    Kim Richards and Monty Brinson were only married for three years–from 1985 to 1988–but they shared a daughter, 29-year-old Brooke. Brinson moved in with Kim Richards when he became ill, and he was a huge support to her as she battled substance abuse issues.

    “He was glad that he was going first because he didn’t think he could bare it if it was me and he had to be left here,” she says.

    A few of Kim Richards’ former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast mates feared when Monty Brinson died that Kim might relapse, but so far that hasn’t been the case.

    “I’ll just say my recovery is going amazing,” she tells ET.

    Did you realize Kim Richards’ ex-husband lived out his last months in her home? It’s a part of her life that remained fairly quiet in light of her life in the spotlight.

    Fans of Kim Richards can check her out on Tuesdays on Lifetime, as she is appearing in The Mother/Daughter Experiment: Celebrity Edition at 10:00 p.m.

  • Kim Richards Caught Lying? Reality Star Faces Jail Time After Wearing High Heels On The Red Carpet

    Kim Richards Caught Lying? Reality Star Faces Jail Time After Wearing High Heels On The Red Carpet

    Kim Richards was recently summoned to court for wearing high heels on the red carpet. The reality star has reportedly not completed any of her required community service due to an alleged foot injury.

    According to TMZ, prosecutors blasted the reality star in court after prosecutors showed evidence, which included photos of her wearing high heels despite her foot injury claims. Richards is set to return to court on June 1 to determine whether she has done any community service or violated her probation. She could be jailed if the court proves that she lied about her foot injury.

    According to Richards’ attorneys, the former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills member is still suffering from her foot and knee injury that resulted in nerve damage. They said they are planning on scheduling surgery; however, their client’s injury limits her movement.

    A source told ET that Richards only wears heels “on the red carpet or in situations where she only needs to wear them for a few minutes.”

    “She isn’t out there jogging in her high heels. Kim will be prepared with the proper documentation [at the next court hearing],” the source added.

    The reality star was supposed to complete 30 days of community service and attend 52 AA meetings as part of a plea deal for her arrest at the Beverly Hills Hotel, in which she entered a guilty plea to one charge of resisting arrest.

    In July of last year, Kim Richards shared with ET her journey to sobriety. The star had been struggling to stay sober and confessed that it has not been easy for her.

    “I love sobriety,” Kim Richards said at the time. “I’ve always loved sobriety, and relapsing was very hard for me. It was not easy. I have to say, don’t take this wrong, but I really wanted to go to treatment because I needed a break from what I was going through at home.”

    Kim Richards Details Her Struggles with Alcoholism

  • Kim Richards: Sister Kyle Says Relationship “Back on Track”

    Kim Richards: Sister Kyle Says Relationship “Back on Track”

    Kim Richards went to rehab for alcohol treatment eight months ago, and sister Kyle Richards says their relationship is finally getting back on track.

    In an interview with People magazine, Kyle Richards dished about the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star.

    “I spoke to Kim the other day and she was confident and strong,” Kyle explains. “I was like, ‘Yes! Let’s keep you here.’ There are no guarantees, but I’m excited and hopeful.”

    Kyle grew up idolizing Kim Richards, who is five years her senior. The sisters were frequently fighting, however.

    “I thought she was so magical,” Kyle says. “But on the other side of that, we would fight. Kim would scratch me until she drew blood and I’d bite her and leave marks. I thought it was normal!”

    Kim Richards’ problem with alcohol addiction was exacerbated after both sisters signed with The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. It even became a storyline on the show.

    Kyle says the two were raised to keep personal issues private, so it was hard seeing all of Kim’s dirty laundry aired on the reality show.

    “I used to be very angry with Kim about her issues,” Kyle says. “We had so many fights over the years. But seeing the show in season 1 opened my eyes a lot. People were like, ‘Poor Kim,’ and I was like, ‘Wait, I thought we were the victims!’ It made me realize, alcoholism is a disease and she can’t help this. It taught me a lot.”

    As Kim Richards’ problems grew even worse, the two sisters became estranged–a separation that lasted nearly a year. It was during that estrangement that Kim was arrested for public intoxication in a Beverly Hills hotel this past April.

    “I was in shock,” Kyle says of the arrest. “It was upsetting and I knew she would be beating herself up about it.”

    These days Kyle Richards is “cautiously optimistic” about Kim maintaining her sobriety, and the two sisters are working to get their relationship back on track. Her wish for Kim Richards is a lifetime of sobriety.

    “I just hope Kim will be healthy, happy and sober for the rest of her life,” she says. “She’s got four amazing kids, she’s an incredible mom and she has a lot to look forward to.”

    Do you expect Kim is truly on the road to recovery? Might her “back on track” relationship with Kyle help her as she works toward her goals?

  • Kim Richards To Star In New Reality Show Amid Battle With Alcoholism

    Will a new reality show get in the way of Kim Richards’ road to sobriety?

    The former Real Wives of Beverly Hills star doesn’t seem to think so, as a source close to the actress confirmed to ET that a reality show featuring Kim Richards is indeed in the works.

    The source adds that Kim’s daughter Kimberly Jackson will also be starring in the show, which is said to feature famous mother and daughters undergoing counseling to address personal issues and public struggles.

    It has also been confirmed that former reality star Heidi Montag will also be part of the cast as well as her mother Darlene, with whom she’s shared a tumultuous dynamic that was highlighted in numerous episodes of The Hills.

    The 51-year-old former child star has long struggled with alcohol addiction, a disease that has strained many of her personal relationships. Her sister Kyle Richards had been very vocal about Kim’s continued lack of self-control, and their nearly one-year-long estrangement reportedly aggravated her downward spiral. Earlier this year, Kim Richards was arrested for public intoxication at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

    In an exclusive one-on-one interview with TV psychologist Dr. Phil McGraw in April, Richards revealed that the emotional breakdown was sparked by a heated exchange with the hotel’s maître d’.

    Kim Richards Opens Up To Dr. Phil About Her Drunken Arrest In April

    Kim Richards has been undergoing alcohol rehabilitation for eight months and her sister could not be happier for her. “I spoke to Kim the other day and she was confident and strong,” said the 46-year-old Kyle. Kyle also confessed that she now has a greater understanding of alcoholism and that she is more appreciative of her sister’s efforts to fight it.

    “I used to be very angry with Kim about her issues,” said Kyle. “It made me realize, alcoholism is a disease and she can’t help this. It taught me a lot.”

    Last month, Kim Richards was spotted shooting scenes for RHOBH’s sixth season, but her camp confirmed that she is appearing on just a few episodes as a guest.

  • Kim Richards Talks Relapse, Sobriety on Brandi Glanville’s Podcast

    Kim Richards opened up about her relapse last spring and her current sobriety with Brandi Glanville during a recent podcast of Brandi Glanville Unfiltered. The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who is 51, was arrested for shoplifting and for public intoxication earlier this year. Richards has since been sentenced to attend 52 meetings with Alcoholics Anonymous, which she is finding to be very beneficial.

    “Everything’s good. Just enjoying life, really, truly. It’s a good time for me right now,” Kim Richards told her friend.

    Brandi Glanville dished about no longer starring on RHOBH, and spoke for both herself and Kim Richards when she said, “It’s relaxing for us. We’re not so stressed out with everything we would normally be stressed out about. We wake up with smiles on our faces and we don’t have to deal with the drama.”

    “One day at a time, sometimes one minute at a time,” Kim Richards tells Brandi Glanville of her sobriety progress. “I’m living in the now, living in the present. If I look too far back or too far forward, it’s kind of crazy and I get fearful. Living in the present for me is just the best way, and the only way for me.”

    Last year’s RHOBH story line featured the turbulent relationship Kim Richards and sister Kyle Richards were experiencing.

    A recent Instagram post proves the two have likely made great strides since then.

    “Spent some fun?quality❤️time with my sister @kylerichards18 ….Life is Good?” Kim Richards captioned the photo of herself with her sister.

    While it certainly sounds like Kim Richards is on a happy and healthy path, it is always a struggle for those who suffer from alcohol addiction. Hopefully she will continue to attend her AA meetings and rely on close friends like Brandi Glanville as sounding boards.

  • Kim Richards Dishes to Brandi Glanville About Relapse, Sobriety

    Kim Richards chatted with Brandi Glanville during a recent podcast of Brandi Glanville Unfiltered, and dished with her fellow former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costar about her relapse last spring, as well as her present sobriety.

    “Everything’s good. Just enjoying life, really, truly. It’s a good time for me right now,” Kim Richards told her friend.

    Brandi Glanville dished about no longer starring on RHOBH, and spoke for both herself and Kim Richards when she said, “It’s relaxing for us. We’re not so stressed out with everything we would normally be stressed out about. We wake up with smiles on our faces and we don’t have to deal with the drama.”

    Kim Richards admits it’s a bit easier, but that it took her a while to realize that.

    “It’s good. It’s better now. It was a rough time for a bit there. Just putting everything back in order and just really focusing on my family and me,” she said.

    Kim Richards was arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel back in April for public intoxication. She was also arrested for shoplifting at Target. She has since been sentenced to attend 52 meetings with Alcoholics Anonymous, which she is finding to be very beneficial.

    “One day at a time, sometimes one minute at a time,” Richards said of her progress. “I’m living in the now, living in the present. If I look too far back or too far forward, it’s kind of crazy and I get fearful. Living in the present for me is just the best way, and the only way for me.”

    It’s likely that part of Kim Richards’ therapy through AA is to mend fences with her family members. That might be working, too. She was pictured with sister Kyle Richards in a recent Instagram post.

    “Spent some fun?quality❤️time with my sister @kylerichards18 ….Life is Good?” she captioned the post.

    Hopefully Brandi Glanville will check in on Kim Richards again in one of her future podcasts. Fans would no doubt love to keep track of the progress she’s making as she works to stay sober.

  • Brandi Glanville and Yolanda Foster Take Kim Richards Out to Lunch for Her Birthday

    Brandi Glanville, Yolanda Foster, and Kim Richards are all former cast members of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but that didn’t keep the three friends from getting together for a birthday celebration this week.

    Brandi and Yolanda treated Kim to lunch on Thursday, in honor of her 51st birthday.

    It was this past June when Bravo announced that none of the three RHOBH stars would be returning to the next season of the show. Brandi Glanville claims she quit on her own, although some reports claim she was fired, Kim Richards isn’t returning because she has had issues with her sobriety, and Yolanda Foster has been extremely ill with Lyme disease symptoms.

    In July, Brandi Glanville spoke with Howard Stern about those reports that claim she was fired.

    “I didn’t want to do the show again. I took so much heat,” she said. “I was doing things to my own detriment that I couldn’t explain–like throwing wine in someone’s face. I’m not sure why. But at the end of the day, I got so much hate on social media.”

    Glanville admitted to Howard Stern that she’d love to do a cameo appearance on the show with her friends.

    “I said, ‘Listen, I will come back if it makes sense–if it’s with Yolanda or if it’s with Kim,’” she told Stern of her conversation with producers. “Otherwise, I don’t talk to the other ladies, and I don’t like them.”

    Meanwhile Kim Richards is enjoying a reconciliation with her sister Kyle Richards, who still stars on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. In addition to her lunch out with Brandi Glanville and Yolanda Foster, Kim also enjoyed a birthday dinner with members of her family.

  • Kim Richards’ Ex Stands Up For The Beleagured ‘Real Housewives’ Star

    Kim Richards, who completed a rehab stint in July after being arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel for public intoxication, has a staunch supporter — her ex-husband Monty Brinson.

    After her rehab stint, the 50-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum was arrested for shoplifting from Target before being hospitalized by concerned family members, according to Us Weekly.

    In what may seem an odd twist, Richards’ ex-husband is defending his former wife.

    In a throwback Instagram picture posted on Tuesday, Brinson captured the pic of the former couple, “One day the people that didn’t believe in you will tell everyone how they met you. That quote is in honor of @kimrichards11.”

    One day the people that didn't believe in you will tell everyone how they met you. That quote is in honor of @kimrichards11 all I will say at this time besides being best friends, and personally a person who has a great heart is thankful to all her fans and friends for believing in her. Personally I have not seen her but we speak everyday. Do I know everything absolutely. Do I take up for my family and friends absolutely. Do I say it like it is. Absolutely. Is my heart filled with love for everyone absolutely. Without going into detail 90 per-cent of what you read is completely false. But for her fans that have stayed with her through this roller coaster will see her very soon at what she's done best all her life since the age of 4. I'm excited for her.

    “All I will say at this time besides being best friends, and personally a person who has a great heart is thankful to all her fans and friends for believing in her. Personally I have not seen her but we speak everyday,” he went on to say. “Do I know everything absolutely. Do I take up for my family and friends absolutely. Do I say it like it is. Absolutely.”

    Brinson claims 90 percent of the information concerning Richards’ recent arrest and hospitalization is false.

    “But for her fans that have stayed with her through this roller coaster will see her very soon at what she’s done best all her life since the age of 4,” he wrote. “I’m excited for her. And personally I would like to thank everyone who stood by her through this rough time. Remember everyone in life goes through a rough time one way or another.

    “I always say know the facts before being judgmental #life #love #heart #thankful
    Richards and Brinson were married for three years before divorcing in 1988, but the former couple, who shares daughter Brooke, have remained close.

    The professional poker player, Brinson, is currently living with Kim Richards as he battles terminal cancer.

  • Kim Richards ‘Rough Time’ Seems To Have No End

    Kim Richards may have a lot of fans thanks to her run on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but she surely doesn’t have any bigger supporter than her ex-husband, Monty Brinson.

    When Kim Richards hit a run of bad luck and trouble recently, it looked like she might flame out. But this is not the first stretch of disaster that Richards has lived through.

    Kim Richards has starred in dozens of television shows and movies in her 50 years on this planet, everything from Disney films to Magnum P.I. to The Dukes of Hazzard. But her personal life has been bumpy. She has been married twice. One of her two partners was murdered while ont he phone with her. She has battled alcohol and drug problems through rehab. One of her adult children was picked up wandering the streets naked and in a daze, and admitted for psychiatric testing.

    More recently, Richards has been caring for her ex-husband, Monty Brinson, while he battles cancer, which maybe terminal.

    When Richards was arrested for public intoxication in July, then again for shoplifting in August, her family rallied around her. And Monty Brinson told the world how he felt about his ex-wife in an Instagram post.

    The picture is an older photo of Richards and Brinson together. The caption of the post reads:

    “One day the people that didn’t believe in you will tell everyone how they met you. That quote is in honor of @kimrichards11.

  • Kim Richards’ Ex-Husband On Her Alleged Stealing Incident: “Kim Is A Giver”

    Monty Brinson took to social media to show his support for ex-wife, Kim Richards.

    Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star is facing tough problems nowadays. Richards was arrested for shoplifting over $600 worth of products from the Van Nuys Target in California earlier this month, reports said.

    Added to that, there were rumors that her family is planning on putting her on psychiatric treatment. She was also said to be homeless and broke according to TMZ.

    Brinson wrote on his Instagram, “One day the people that didn’t believe in you will tell everyone how they met you. That quote is in honor of @kimrichards11 all I will say at this time besides being best friends, and personally a person who has a great heart is thankful to all her fans and friends for believing in her.”

    Brinson said he has not seen his ex-wife but he confirmed that they speak every day. Defending her, he wrote on his Instagram, “know the facts before being judgmental.” He also thanked Richards’ fans for supporting and believing in her.

    Reports said Richards took some merchandise and put them inside the reusable bags she had, then left without checking out.

    She told the clerk the products were paid and then made another attempt of stealing a cart full of toys and beauty items. But she was stopped by the store security.

    According to TMZ, Richards looted an assortment of products like animal crackers and stickers, office items, gloves, jump ropes and a vanity mirror.

    Brinson was clearly shocked but dismissed the issue saying “I couldn’t imagine Kim stealing or shoplifting anything. She is a giver.”

    Meanwhile, Richards will not be returning to her show Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. However, Brinson is still positive that things will turn out good for his ex-wife.

  • Lisa Vanderpump Talks About ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Costar Kim Richards

    Lisa Vanderpump chatted with Us Weekly during her Hero Dog Award Benefit Luncheon earlier this week, and the topic quickly turned to her former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costar Kim Richards.

    Richards was arrested for public drunkenness at a Beverly Hills hotel a couple of months back and did a stint in rehab. Shortly after her release, she was arrested for allegedly shoplifting about $600 worth of merchandise from a Target store.

    “Well, I’m sorry Kim’s not here because of the situation,” Lisa Vanderpump said. “That’s the thing. But I think her sobriety is more important than any reality show. And I think a lot of people recognize that fact and that’s probably why she’s not in this season.”

    The Vanderpump Rules star says she talked with Kim Richards earlier this summer, while she was in the rehab facility.

    “But not since then,” she said. “I’m not that close to Kim, obviously I’m closer to Kyle. I’ve heard updates and stuff. But it’s a sad situation.”

    Camille Grammer joined Lisa Vanderpump at her Hero Dog Award Benefit Luncheon. She hasn’t spoken to Kim Richards recently either.

    “I was on vacation in Hawaii. But I will reach out to her soon,” the former RHOBH star said. “I mean, I feel bad for Kim. My thoughts and prayers are with her and I support her and I just want her to know I’m here for her if she needs anything.”

    It’s sad how these women work closely together on these reality shows, yet when push comes to shove no one shows up to personally lend a hand. It seems to go hand in hand with the entire premise of these shows, however. They portray these women as materialistic socialites who don’t deal with much on a heartfelt level. Appearances seem to be much more important than feelings.

    Surely Kim Richards has done lots of things to distance herself from people like Lisa Vanderpump and Camille Grammer. However she seems to be in a bad way–emotionally–and could perhaps use some support. Hopefully she is getting that from her counselors and any post-rehab programs she is attending.

    Alcoholism is a very real disease and Kim Richards is clearly afflicted. Lisa Vanderpump and Camille Grammer are blessed they aren’t dealing with issues like Kim’s up close and personal.

    The talk at Lisa Vanderpump’s event also turned to Brandi Glanville. Even though she isn’t suffering from addiction issues, it seems like she is thought of about as much as Lisa thinks of Kim Richards.

    “Brandi, listen, I have no problem with her,” Vanderpump said. “I don’t even really think about her much. I just hope she’s… I would’ve invited her today, actually, because it’s a dog event. We bonded over dogs but [um… I would have. But] …I forgot.”

    Wow. Out of sight–out of mind, it seems.

    Would you want Lisa Vanderpump as your friend?

  • Brandi Glanville Claims She Wasn’t Fired from ‘RHOBH’ for Diva Behavior

    Brandi Glanville says she’s never been called a diva in her life, and that that’s not why she was recently fired from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    Just last week, Entertainment Tonight confirmed that Glanville won’t return from the next season of RHOBH. People magazine reports her behavior was the reason she was fired.

    “Brandi got too big for her britches. She was a diva, and it came around to bite her,” a source told People. “By the end, she couldn’t get along with anyone, and no one wanted to shoot with her.”

    Brandi Glanville begs to differ, and she took to Twitter to defend herself.

    She even made note of her successes on Celebrity Apprentice with both Leeza Gibbons and Donald Trump.

    Even though ET confirmed her firing, Bravo has yet to officially announce that Brandi Glanville isn’t returning to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    Kim Richards won’t be returning, however, following her stint in rehab, and there’s a rumor going around that says Kathy Hilton may replace sister Kyle Richards.

    Do you agree with sources that claim Brandi Glanville is a diva? Do you think that’s why she was fired from RHOBH?

    Or do you side with Brandi Glanville on this one? Is she quite simply misunderstood?

  • Kathy Hilton: Is She Replacing Kyle Richards on ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?’

    Kathy Hilton is no stranger to reality TV. Daughter Paris Hilton was one of the reality TV originals, having starred with Nicole Richie on The Simple Life starting back in 2003.

    Now there’s some speculation that Kathy Hilton might be making her first foray into starring on reality TV. Rumor has it she’s on tap to replace her younger sister Kyle Richards on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    Kyle and sister Kim Richards have been staples of RHOBH since the show debuted back in 2010, but Kyle Richards has reportedly had enough of reality TV–at least for now.

    “Kyle hasn’t been happy for two seasons now,” a source tells Page Six. “She has ruined any chance at a friendship with the cast mates and she isn’t sure she can stomach another season.”

    Kyle’s relationship with Kim Richards has been especially strained due to their work on the show. The two engaged in a screaming match during the season five reunion special in April, but they have since been spotted–along with Kathy Hilton–getting along at Kim’s daughter’s wedding earlier in June. Kim Richards is in a 90-day alcohol rehab program. She was arrested for public drunkenness at the Beverly Hills Hilton earlier in 2015. It is expected that in order to maintain her sobriety, Kim Richards won’t return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills when filming for the next season begins.

    “Both Richards sisters are fed up with the drama of reality TV and want out,” a source says. “Lisa Vanderpump feels the same way.”

    TMZ reported last week that RHOBH has given Brandi Glanville her walking papers.

    Will Kathy Hilton step up to the plate and join the cast of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills?

    “Kathy’s been approached to join the cast, but is undecided,” a source reports. “She doesn’t know yet if she wants to be part of all the drama.”

    Kyle Richards claims the notion of Kathy Hilton signing on to star in RHOBH is nothing but a rumor.

    Is Kathy Hilton a good fit for RHOBH, if in fact this rumor proves true? Will Eileen Davidson, Lisa Rinna, Lisa Vanderpump, and the rest of the gang welcome her on board if she accepts the invitation?

    Brandi Glanville Gives ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Costars One-Word Descriptions

    Brandi Glanville of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills spoke with Ross Matthews during his podcast radio show, Straight Talk With Ross Matthews, on Wednesday. When Ross asked Brandi to describe her costars using just one word, she let her emotions lead her mouth.

    Matthews started with Lisa Vanderpump.

    “English,” was the word Brandi Glanville used to describe her.

    Yolanda Foster?

    “Sick,” Brandi Glanville answered. Yolanda Foster has been suffering debilitating symptoms from Lyme disease.

    Kyle Richards?

    “Bitch,” Brandi Glanville answered, with no hesitation whatsoever.

    Lisa Rinna?

    Brandi Glanville started off with a one-word reply, but then offered an explanation to accompany it.

    “Crazy…I like her but she’s CRAZIER than all of us put together and it will soon show…You just can’t hide it for that long. She’s crazy.”

    Ross Matthews didn’t ask Brandi Glanville for a one-word description of Kim Richards. Might that be because she isn’t returning to the sixth season of RHOBH?

    It’s possible Brandi Glanville told Ross Matthews prior to the start of his podcast that she wouldn’t discuss Kim Richards.

    What’s your take on Brandi Glanville’s one-word descriptions of her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costars?

    Do you think Lisa Rinna is really as crazy as Brandil Glanville says she is?

  • Kathy Hilton Proud of Sister, ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Star Kim Richards, for Rehab Efforts

    Kathy Hilton is the mom of Paris Hilton. She’s also the sister of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards, and her pride in her sister was the topic of choice as she chatted recently with People magazine.

    It was at the Ovarian Cancer Research Fund’s 2nd Annual Super Saturday event, sponsored by FIJI Water, in Los Angeles, that Kathy Hilton was asked how Kim Richards in faring in rehab.

    “I’m very proud of her,” Hilton said. “She decided on her own to go.”

    Kim Richards entered rehab last month following a very painful intervention with Dr. Phil McGraw. That meeting followed her arrest for public intoxication, trespassing, resisting an officer, and battery on a police officer in Beverly Hills on April 16th.

    A source close to the RHOBH star People says Kim Richards will attend her daughter’s wedding next weekend.

    “Kim is so excited for her daughter’s wedding next weekend. She wouldn’t miss it.”

    Kathy Hilton replied via Twitter when a fan asked if Kim was already out of rehab. The question was raised because Kim Richards attended her daughter’s bridal shower.

    Kathy Hilton says she doesn’t know if Kim Richards will return to RHOBH next season, but she believes the show has been good for her sister.

    “I think the show has been really great,” she said. “I mean she’s a professional. She’s an actress. But this is real.”

    “Kim needs to learn the tools to cope when there is something that’s upsetting,” Kathy Hilton added. “You have to learn to use the tools to not fall off the wagon.”

    Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costar Brandi Glanville has been to Kim Richards’s rehab facility to visit. It sounds like she’s holed up in quite an impressive facility.

    “I would die,” Glanville said of how she would likely react to having to go to rehab. “But if you saw where her rehab was. I was like, ‘Anyone could use 30 days here. It’s really nice!’ I don’t want to out where she is. It’s beautiful. I took the kids, and was like, ‘This is the Four Seasons or something.’”

    Some people who follow the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills–but not religiously–might not even have known that Kathy Hilton and Kim Richards are sisters. You’ll notice Kathy Hilton didn’t mention sister Kyle Richards at all. She hasn’t been particularly supportive of Kim’s problems with alcohol.

    Fortunately for Kim Richards, she has sister Kathy Hilton in her corner. Everyone fighting addiction of any kinds needs to know their family is behind them–and their friends, too.

    Will Kathy Hilton, Kim Richards, Kyle Richards, and more have a big family reunion when Kim’s daughter ties the knot next weekend?

    Now that might be good fodder for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

  • Brandi Glanville Visits ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Costar Kim Richards in Rehab

    Brandi Glanville recently paid a visit to her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costar Kim Richards in rehab. She dished about the visit during an interview with Jenny McCarthy on her SiriusXM radio show on Thursday.

    It was while chatting with Jenny McCarthy that Brandi Glanville said she wasn’t sure if Kim Richards would return to RHOBH next season.

    “She’s in rehab right now,” Glanville said. “I don’t know that she’s not doing the show.”

    Kim Richards was arrested for public intoxication back in April. She appeared shortly thereafter on The Dr. Phil Show, but stormed out and refused to talk about her drinking problem in front of the cameras.

    “I wasn’t shocked,” Brandi Glanville said regarding Kim Richardss confession about drug use use during to Dr. Phil. “But you know, at the same time, I’ve never seen her drink or do a drug… I was just her friend, and I witnessed odd behavior but I never saw her do anything.”

    Brandi Glanville also dished on the rehab facility where Kim Richards is staying.

    “I would die,” Glanville said of how she would likely react tohaving to go to rehab. “But if you saw where her rehab was. I was like, ‘Anyone could use 30 days here. It’s really nice!’ I don’t want to out where she is. It’s beautiful. I took the kids, and was like, ‘This is the Four Seasons or something.’”

    Even though Brandi Glanville grew much closer to Kim Richards during this past season of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, her closest friend on the show is Yolanda Foster.

    “They’re just fun,” she said of David Foster and his wife, who suffers from Lyme disease. “They don’t take anything seriously.”

    Hopefully Brandi Glanville keeps up her friendship with Kim Richards, even though she isn’t her best friend. When she leaves rehab, she will need all the support she can get.

    Do you think Brandi will be helpful to Kim when she completes her stay in rehab?

  • Kim Richards: Public Intoxication Charge for ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Star

    Kim Richards was charged with public intoxication following her arrest at a Beverly Hills hotel during the wee hours on Thursday morning. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was released shortly thereafter and issued a court date in June.

    E! Online reports that when the Beverly Hills Police responded to a call, they found Richards both drunk and belligerent.

    In addition to public intoxication, Kim Richards was also charged with trespassing, resisting an officer, and battery on a police officer.

    Prior to Kim Richards’ public intoxication charge, her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills costars were concerned about her sobriety. Lisa Rinna brought it up on a recent episode of the show, saying she thought Richards was ‘on something.’

    Do you expect the producers at Bravo–as well as Kim’s family members and friends–will urge the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star to seek treatment at a rehab facility?

    Kim Richards’     public intoxication charge is no laughing matter. Fans can likely expect to see it play out on the reality show, however.

    Do you think it will make it in time for airing this season or will have to wait for next season instead?

  • Kyle Richards, Brandi Glanville: Will ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Stars Make Up?

    Kyle Richards and Brandi Glanville–both stars of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills–have been at each other all season so far. Is there hope that the two women will ever make up?

    No. At least not according to Kyle.

    Kyle Richards was asked recently if she thought a reconciliation might be in the cards.

    “No. I do not,” she said during a recent interview with E! News. “I’m the kind of person where I get over everything. I not only forgive, I forget. At this point in my life, it’s too much negativity, and it’s very toxic for me. I know that to be friends with her, it’s just setting myself up to be attacked again. I’m making a conscious decision to keep away because life’s complicated enough.”

    Brandi Glanville and Kyle Richards have been feuding over Kyle’s sister Kim Richards of late.

    Kyle admits that this, the fifth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, has been the most dramatic ever.

    “I mean, I never imagined it would be like this, ever, when I signed on to do this show,” she said. “Never in my life.”

    Kim and Kyle Richards have barely spoken to one another following a few incidents involving Kim’s sobriety. Both women–along with Brandi Glanville–got into a big fight when the cast was in Amsterdam recently.

    Fans of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills probably aren’t the least bit surprised to learn that Kyle Richards doesn’t believe she and Brandi Glanville will ever make up and be friends again. Those who don’t watch the show are likely wondering how such insane drama can even be real.

    Do you think it is?

    Do you foresee Brandi Glanville and Kyle Richards moving past their issues, or is this simply a predetermined facet of drama designed to keep the show’s ratings high?

    Those who don’t watch RHOBH, but caught Brandi Glanville recently on Celebrity Apprentice know she’s good at stirring the proverbial pot. Do you suppose similar shenanigans take place on the reality show?

  • Brandi Glanville Also Talking About BFF Kim Richards

    Brandi Glanville has been talking about her closest friend on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Kim Richards.

    On last weeks episode, Lisa Rinna caught Kim Richards’ fire for expressing concern about her sobriety.

    In fact, Richards said, “I have been sober for three years, and my friends and family have never seen me like that. You have gone around to everyone and talked … asking where I’ve gone to treatment, if I had a sponsor … you want to bring up my stuff, let’s talk about your home life.”

    This hit a sensitive area for Rinna, and prompted her to eventually throw a glass of water on Richards, then break the glass on the table in an unusual fit of rage.

    Now, it turns out that Brandi Glanville has also been talking about Kim Richards’ sobriety.

    As Richards’ ally on the show, and a person that is not by any means rich in friends, Brandi Glanville is risking a serious tongue lashing from Richards, or even worse.

    In a sneak peek for the next episode, it seems Kyle Richards, Kim’s sister, finds out that Brandi Glanville has been discussing Kim’s sobriety with other cast members.

    All this discussion about Kim Richards’ sobriety started when she took a prescription pain killer before Eileen Davidson’s poker party that was not prescribed to her. As a result, Richards was noticeably out of it and slurring her words.

    Brandi Glanville, as well as all of the other castmates began questioning whether or not Kim Richards was holding on to her sobriety. Even though Kim has said repeatedly that it was a simple mistake in medication, the other girls obviously found it troubling.

    Will Brandi Glanville and Kim Richards be the next castmates to duke it out on the show after being friends for so long?

    Time will tell.

  • Brandi Glanville Turning On Kim Richards?

    Brandi Glanville has been singing the praises of her seeming BFF all season long on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

    But, has Brandi Glanville begun to change her tune?

    The RHOBH star was outed on a sneak peek when Kyle Richards, Kim’s sister, discovers that Brandi Glanville has been talking about Kim behind her back.

    Uh oh.

    In a memorable episode last week, Lisa Rinna felt the wrath of Kim Richards after Rinna expressed concerns for Richard’s sobriety.

    Kim Richards swatted down her concerns, saying, “I have been sober for three years, and my friends and family have never seen me like that. You have gone around to everyone and talked … asking where I’ve gone to treatment, if I had a sponsor … you want to bring up my stuff, let’s talk about your home life.”

    She then insinuated that Lisa Rinna’s husband, Harry Hamlin, had a secret that he was hiding and threatened to tell on him.

    Now, it may be Brandi Glanville‘s turn to feel the hate come down from Kim Richards.

    But it may not matter much to Brandi Glanville. She has already expressed a desire to leave the show.

    Brandi Glanville said in her blog, “I’m giving serious thought to quitting Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills. It might be time to leave the party. I really have to think about my health – it’s such a mindf**k! At some point, it’s just not fun anymore. I have all the women against me – it’s too much.”

    Perhaps this could be the most explosive feud on the show yet, as Brandi Glanville will likely fight back a lot harder than Lisa Rinna did.

    Many fans of the show would be happy if Brandi Glanville left, but she said of the show’s future without her, “I’m actually very curious to see what they’ll do if they don’t have me to fight with. I’m wondering who will turn into the person they pick on. Or they’ll just sit around watching Lisa getting a puppy and Kyle go on vacation. That won’t be fun.”

    Brandi Glanville’s got a point! What do you think about the possibly explosive revelation that Brandi Glanville has been talking behind Kim Richards’ back?
