Kathy Hilton and Garcelle Beauvais are reminding fans that true friendship doesn’t fade when the cameras stop rolling.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-stars reunited on Friday, August 22, for a stylish luncheon at Hollywood’s legendary Chateau Marmont, and it was all in support of a luxe new venture: Covet By Christos, a fashion-forward platform by Dukes of Melrose star Christos Garkinos.
“Sharing laughs and lunch with my favorites,” Kathy captioned a photo carousel from the event, featuring her and Garcelle looking radiant as ever. Garcelle, just as touched, replied in the comments, “So happy we got to catch up.”
Garcelle also shared glimpses of her colorful luncheon outfit and the intimate gathering on her Instagram. Posing alongside Kathy, Christos, and Real Housewives of Miami stars Alexia Nepola and Marysol Patton, she wrote, “Ladies who lunch supporting [Covet By Christos].”
The reunion felt especially meaningful considering Garcelle’s departure from RHOBH just five months prior. Having joined the cast in Season 10 (2020), Garcelle announced her exit on the same day as the Season 14 finale in an emotional online video.
“I have some news: I’ve decided to leave Beverly Hills,” she told fans. “It’s been a wild ride — I mean, some amazing things have happened, and some hard things have also happened — but it’s been a ride nevertheless.”
After leaving the show, Garcelle notably unfollowed most of her Season 14 castmates on Instagram, including her longtime best friend Sutton Stracke. However, Kathy Hilton and fellow Housewives friend Jennifer Tilly remained among the few Beverly Hills ladies she continued to follow, highlighting their close bond.
The gathering also drew warm reactions from fellow attendees. Alexia Nepola commented, “Always love to see you and connect. Keep on shining.” Meanwhile, Marysol Patton chimed in, “I love a boozy girls gathering.”
