Season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has been nothing short of explosive, but it’s clear that Kyle Richards is no longer on the best terms with her costars. From text message drama with Dorit Kemsley to tensions with newcomer Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, Kyle is navigating a minefield of confrontations. In a recent Amazon Live session, Kyle opened up about how the ongoing drama is affecting her and even teased explosive revelations set for the reunion.
While RHOBH fans have been captivated by the constant drama, Kyle Richards has felt sidelined. She shared candidly, “I definitely felt ambushed this year,” referring to the way certain castmates have treated her. Her frustration with the cast’s treatment was evident, especially when it came to a situation involving Dorit. “I texted PK and Dorit when they announced their separation. No one mentions that I texted Dorit,” Kyle said, alluding to the omission of the full story. She also hinted that there’s more to come. “I have it on my phone and don’t think I won’t be sharing my receipts at the reunion,” she added, promising an intense showdown ahead.
The issue, Kyle Richards explained, was intentional misrepresentation. “It was just intentionally to try and make me look bad,” she lamented. Kyle Richards even revisited an episode where Dorit discussed how Kathy Hilton had supposedly reached out about the separation, but Kyle’s own message was conveniently left out. “I sent you the text. Once again, just intentionally to try and make me look bad. That’s why reality television is frustrating sometimes,” Kyle concluded, clearly fed up with the narrative being spun around her.
Kyle Richards also addressed her complicated relationship with Boz, the newest addition to the show. While their connection seemed promising at first, Kyle believes Boz’s swift alliance with Dorit created friction. “I really like Boz,” she said, but noted that Boz seemed to have a skewed perception of her. Kyle even recalled an attempt to clear the air, sharing, “I knocked on her door at Ocean Side and went in her room, and I said, ‘I just want you to know how happy I am that you’re a part of the show. I think you’re amazing.’”
But despite Kyle’s effort to make Boz feel welcome, she felt like her actions were misinterpreted. “I was the least welcoming? They’re coming for me, guys. I think I know why they’re coming for me, but I’ll let you come up with your own reasons.” It’s clear from Kyle’s tone that she’s feeling misunderstood and under attack.
In the midst of all the drama, Kyle reflected on the nature of the show, particularly how some of the issues—like the text to Dorit—felt trivial. “These women are like schoolgirls this year,” Kyle remarked, frustrated by the petty conflicts. “Why are you starting problems over something so dumb?” She also expressed how hurtful it was that, during such a challenging time in her life, her castmates lacked compassion. “They knew I was struggling so much at that time. I know we’re on a TV show, but gosh, be a little compassionate,” Kyle said.
And though Kyle’s future on the show has been questioned, she revealed a curious tidbit. Someone had told her she could become the longest-running Housewife if she stayed for season 15. “This is true, but do I really care?” she said, leaving fans to wonder what direction Kyle’s future with RHOBH might take.
One thing is for sure: Kyle has a lot to say. Whether it’s clearing her name regarding Jennifer Tilly’s supposed rift with the cast, defending Sutton Stracke and Garcelle Beauvais from accusations of stirring the pot, or calling out her costars for their behavior, Kyle’s voice is only getting louder.
With the reunion just around the corner, fans can expect plenty of fireworks. As Kyle herself put it, “It’s frustrating sometimes, but it’s also real.”
