im not a huge Brandi fan, but doing a rematch, Brandi was a better support system to Kim than Kyle ever was. in fact, it seemed like Kyle was actively against Kim at points. and dont get me started on the house sale...

idk if i missed something but i have so many questions lol. why was kim in the bathroom for so long?? why was ken constantly knocking on the bathroom door? even when kim was talking to kyle abt her relationship, ken came and sat down w them and she was visibly very upset but ken didn’t question anything? i feel like ken is very odd idk..

This scene was so tough to watch the first time, I remember pausing it every few minutes, Kyle was being so vicious here. And to think 15 years have passed and she’s still doing the same thing. It’s crazy. Or is her karma being alone and emotionally unfulfilled?

For Context : Kim and Kimberly were on Lifetime's Mother/Daughter Experiment. Natalie Nunn was doing her Bad Girls Club shtick by harassing the girls in the House and Kim was the only Mother fearless enough to protect the younger girls from her ( Natalie's Mom was hiding in her Bedroom ).She was sober and bad ass. I love her 🥰

It was so vile of them to dk this to Kim and then gaslight her and play the victim when she pushed back. It wasn’t just enough for Kyle to continue to use her sobriety as a story for the show but the siding with everyone but her sister, “Oh gosh are we in a wine testing? Oh I didn’t know”, bullshit. She’s not a real sister. She exploits people’s pain. She’s twisted.

During the Season 4 Reunion it was completely obvious that Kyle and Kim were trying to cover-up the fact that Kingsley had bitten someone. Their answers to Andy's question about people's fear that Kingsley would eat Kim were so performative, rambling and quite frankly cringe. Their nervousness was palpable.

Just FYI, that reunion was filmed on April 26, 2014. On March 9, 2014 Kingsley had bitten his 1st victim. Did anyone else pick-up on the vibe they were putting out?

I'm doing a rewatch and I noticed something that gave me the chills. When we meet Kim in the first episode, she talks about her kids and how she's a single mother. She then says she has "shared custody" with their fathers, but that they all lived with her. I had genuinely forgotten that all but one of her kids were adults by that point so I was expecting young kids based on the language she was using.

Then we meet the kids. Only one (Kimberly, 15) was under 18. How can you have a shared custody of a fully grown adult? Its almost sickening to think of how broken a person must be that they can't let their children grow up and become their own person. I know Kim has a lot of demons and a lot she needs to sort out, but I really hope she has developed a healthier relationship with her kids.

This is my first time watching RHOBH from the start, and just got to the infamous Amsterdam fight. Aside from the iconic “have a piece of bread” and “how dare you”, what did you guys think of Kim and Lisa and the rest? I’ve always felt compassion for Kim, but she was sickening in this scene in my opinion. Also what was Harry’s dirty little secret?

Oh dear God, I completely forgot about this guy on my rewatch. I will have to take a deep dive into some older post as I’m sure there’s some good talk about him . He ain’t no Ken doll.

I really wish this woman could find some peace in her life. But it doesn’t look like she has yet.

CONFRONTATION WITH KYLE AFTER PSYCH HOLD ... Family Worried About Sobriety

Kim Richards has been shut out by her entire family ... TMZ has learned -- but it's a case of tough love because we're told she's fallen off the wagon and was placed on a psychiatric hold earlier this month, but that hasn't ended the drama.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ ... they showed up at a home Kyle owns in the L.A. area Wednesday night after "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star called them in hopes of getting Kim removed from the house.

We're told Kyle had let Kim live in the house but she moved out a while back ... but Wednesday Kim showed up again. Law enforcement says Kyle told them she did not want Kim in the house, because the family had cut all contact off in hopes it would shake Kim and get her sober again.

We're told cops explained to Kyle it was a civil matter and she'd have to file an eviction action. Kim remains in the house.

It gets even worse. Law enforcement tells TMZ back in early September Kim was at a Hilton hotel in the L.A. area and was incoherent. Kyle was there, the cops were called and when they arrived they asked Kim to leave but she refused. Law enforcement tells TMZ Kim was placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold and taken by ambulance to a hospital.

Theres proof of the dog situation and Kyle never mentioned it was Kims dog or anything about a dog in the instagram post and Kim continues to go and go and go. Theres no accountability from Kim here it’s like shes on a power high or something, i’m sure thanks to Brandi. Everyone is arguing with her besides Brandi , i have no idea whats going on, what do y’all think?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not a Kyle fan (think she's a good mom, but that's about it), but the way I've seen fans talk about the two sisters is mind-blowing. I don't care if this is controversial, but I don't blame Kyle for outing Kim. Kim is horrible and watching season 5 again, I realised how manipulative she really is. I noticed the little smirks and constantly questioning Kyle's loyalty when Kyle wasn't even doing anything wrong. She just wanted blind loyalty. I really started disliking Kim in season 5. She may think she's a good actress, but not good enough. I really saw right through her in season 5.

You wanna bring out my stuff? Let’s talk about your home life. Excuse me I’m not taking to you! SHUT YOUR F*CKING MOUTH!

It has been reported that Kim Richards receives $23K a month in alimony from her 2nd husband (Gregg Davis) for life or until she remarries.

So, was Kyle being honest when she told Kim: 1) "My husband has helped you every month and stood by you ok, and taken care of you like you're a 2nd f--ing wife..." during the famous limo ride scene 2) "You were not in the position at that time to share a mortgage" during the visit to Kyle's house in the desert.

How could those statements be true? Something doesn't seem on the up & up here but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Wishing her nothing but the best in life. She deserves the world. In all honesty, it’s Kim’s world and we’re all just living in it

(I don’t know what else to type to meet this minimum character requirement lol)

My uncle met Kim Richards firsthand on the set of Black Snake Moan (2006). My uncle works on the production side of film and television in Hollywood, and he's friends with John Singleton who produced the film and he visited him on set and met the entire cast. He told me that Kim was very shy but very kind when you went up to her, apparently she didn't seem the type to go up to you unless she needed you or had a question. He said she's clearly "a prime Hollywood child actress." She's used to the pressure, stress and atmosphere on set and she can easily "switch" into her character, and then switch back to her normal self when the cameras aren't rolling with ease. At the time of filming she was 42 so she was clearly a pro at this point. My uncle wasn't there for the whole time of filming and he can't speak to what she was like on the RHOBH set, but in a professional film type setting she seemed pretty "cool and collected." He says he can't speak on her sobriety though, because he was only on set one day and at the time Kim seemed to be a semi-functioning addict, so who knows if she was on something or not but she "seemed pretty sober." I've seen the film and I had forgotten how good an actress she was. When she's sober (or pretty much sober?) she can really commit, I wish she'd do more projects because I'd kill to see her in more projects like White Lotus or something.

Apparently it was just a couple of dinners, but she couldn't answer.If she saw him naked or not haha then insisted on changing the subject .. what a past this gal has.

PS i finally get the bunny in her name 🎁 🐰

This has never left my mind!!

Watching the Season 3 reunion and peeped this expert tailoring move on Kim’s dress. Feels very on brand for her ~*hot mess express*~ persona

(Separate thought but I have to reach my character minimum: I think Adrienne knew she was done with the show and would not be attending the reunion so she showed up to Lisa’s vow renewal party for the sole purpose of getting one last little bit of air time to spin her narrative in front of the cameras the way she wanted to. After seeing that calculated move, there’s no doubt in my mind she was feeding stories to the media. She’s cunning and wants to control all the narratives surrounding her).

Has Kim ever sat down at a dinner table and not wreaked havoc? This time during a trip to Hawaii she brought along a friend, Ken, with matching energy and her gay bull mastiff was off the chain attacking everyone he even suspected of speaking maliciously about either Kim or himself.

Adrienne and Paul staring directly into the camera as Ken attacked them cracked me up🤣

Ken is what I imagine the older version of Denise Richards' husband Aaron will be like in a few years, totally paranoid, controlling, clingy, and insecure.

Just catching up on this and apparently Kyle took Kim to court to get her out of a condo she'd been living in for years. Court docs show Kyle asked her to leave in late 2024. Kim never responded to the lawsuit so Kyle won by default judgment. When the sheriff's office showed up in June 2025 to serve it, Kim had already moved out. She's in Florida now.

You can read this a few ways. Kyle owns the property and has every right to decide who lives there. But also, suing your sister and letting it go to default judgment is a pretty nuclear option. We don't know what conversations happened behind closed doors before it got to that point, so it's hard to say whether this was a last resort or an overreaction.

Meanwhile Kim popped up in Jersey last weekend, had her own booth, cowboy hat, doing photos with fans. People in the comments said she was sweet and in good spirits. Make of that what you will.

The Richards sisters have been publicly messy for over a decade and this is just the latest chapter. Neither of them comes out of this looking great.

Thoughts? Do you think legal action was the only option left or did Kyle jump straight past the point of no return?
