I'm betting that they are thick as thieves again, already. Kim is addicted to substances and Kyle is addicted to Kim. As much and as often as Kyle protests notwithstanding, I think she's addicted to the drahma. I am guessing Kyle was down there for everyone but Kim.

grisgris May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 I think we're talking about two separate books here. Lura is absolutely right about the price of HoH (Oppenheimer.) The going rate for paperback is $65 and up. http://www.amazon.com/House-Hilton-Jerry-Oppenheimer-ebook/dp/B000MAH7TU/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1432606780&sr=1-1&keywords=house+of+hilton Oddly, the hardback is considerably cheaper than the paperback. I read it and the Richards half of the book is mainly about Big Kathy and not very much at all about Paris (who serves as the "loss leader" to sell copies.) The Hilton half of the book is about Conrad Sr., but mostly about Nicky. It's a good soapy read, but I'm not sure how credible it is. 4 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1183663

Now, that's what I want to see on RHOBH, and that's what I expected to see when I first tuned in. Bling, bling, bling! The heck with the fighting, and bring on the goodies. I thought Monty was a gambler. Did he win that diamond playing poker, or did he have an occupation? I know nothing about him as far as background goes. He surely is missing being with the gang in Cabo. When do they get back? It doesn't surprise me that Kim made a beeline to Cannes.

Lura May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 It is virtually impossible to analyze any gemstone from a picture. It is even difficult to judge its value in person without a special magnifier. Only then can one tell whether the diamond is hiding a multitude of inclusions and other things that bring the value down. Even an experienced jeweler can tell you nothing from a picture except its approximate size (and even then, it's a guess). The qualities which determine a diamond's value (and the value of most gems) is in person, a judgment as to its brightness, its cut, its clarity, and other considerations. While it could be true that the diamond is far from perfect, it could also be perfect, but you'd never know either from a picture. The lighting in the picture and any camera problems can cause fuzziness and other abnormalities. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1184261

pawsodoom May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 So I ended up at urgent care on Sunday (mountain biking accident and my injury required stitches). The doctor finishes up and is going over my aftercare and I ask, "So what can I take for pain?" He tells me that I can take over-the-counter meds. In the spirit of Kim, I almost blurted out, "But I'm in 100% pain!!" I did restrain myself, however. I'm curious what Kathy's "emergency" was. The Richards sisters are certainly drama queens, aren't they? So, anybody think Kim is actually going to go to rehab now that "the wedding" is over?

Re the stone I figured the photography was off somehow, but I definitely thought it was a cheap ass looking chain to be hanging 10 carats from. suomi, glad I could clarify for you and others. As a trained gemologist specializing in diamonds, it's always best to examine a piece in person with a loupe (jeweler's magnifier), but one can clearly see things like inclusions if they are large enough and/or prevalent enough in a close up, which they are in that photo. That stone is so included to the naked eye (inclusions are natural imperfections that create a less-clear/crisp look to a diamond, and affect its clarity, one of the key aspects a stone is graded on to determine it's value), it is apparent that the clarity is off, which I find rather odd if Monty is this high roller.

quinn May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 The "provenance" of the diamond, accoding to House of Hilton was that Monty bought Kim an engagement ring, Big Kathy thought it was too small and Monty was ordered to get a bigger stone. It is believable to me that he got Kim a bigger stone but that it was not a great quality stone because if he could afford an engagement ring with a large, high quality stone, he would've gotten Kim that kind of ring in the first place. My take on Monty was that he probably got a decent inheritance, blew through it, although he may still get a stipend, and is an amiable guy who also gets by on the grace and favor of his rich friends. 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1185361

The bride has vowed she won't speak with her mom again. As for the sober coach ... we're told she couldn't control Kim and left Mexico immediately after the wedding. Our sources say Kim is still in Cabo and she's gone radio silent. The rehab facility gave her a pass to attend the wedding but gave her a deadline to return Monday, which she has not done.

The chain appears to be some random base metal the "silver" plate wore off of years ago. I've seen better quality silver for sale by random vendors on the beaches in Mexico. The setting looks like a generic pre-fab of rhodium plate over sterling. It's unfortunate they couldn't set aside a few dollars from all of their trips in the last year for a new chain.

I talked to my good friend who watches RHs with me but she doesnt get into blogs and forums talk besides what we talk about and what I have shared with her. She watches for gulity pleasure basically. Anyhow she brought something to my attention the other day when we talked Kyle being at the wedding. She asked, "What if Kim is a lesbian?" I know but hold on. But then she said, "Think about Whitney Houston and how her mom would had disowned for being a lesbian. Or how Meredith Baxter and Jodie Foster have all came out the closet over the last few hand full years and they are not that much older than Kim. Or that Kim has had 3 baby daddies but hasnt had a man since." It got me thinking. I mean Kim doesnt give lesbian vibes (even though her love for Brandi felt like overkill at times) but it's not uncommon for LGBT individuals to get into drugs and alcohol when their families disown them or know they are who they are. It was just a theory she threw out there. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1185799

I also can't believe that I've been so gullible, believing and hoping that Kim could knock this addiction on her own. At least, toward the end, I did say that I thought Kim had this planned. Kim will go for the booze or the pills at every opportunity. She is truly an addict. I can't say that I hold out any hope for her after this escapade. If what was written on TMZ is true, she has ruined everything! How could she ever, ever do this to Brooke? If that family aided and abetted her trip to Mexico, they deserve what they got.

Bronzedog May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 For whatever reason, Kim is truly a tortured soul, and this is not going to end well for any of them. 3 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1185965
BeachyMum May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 I am totally convinced that Kim is on prescription pain pills. I have an extremely close family member who was addicted for well over a decade and the anger and insulting outbursts seem so familiar. Kim also looks awful and on something at Brooke's wedding-shouldn't she look cleaner and more clear after a month in rehab? I feel awful for her children. 2 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1185969

Kim also looks awful and on something at Brooke's wedding-shouldn't she look cleaner and more clear after a month in rehab? I feel awful for her children. IMO, Kim was not in "rehab", she never detoxed, never went off any prescription meds she was using or on. She was photo'd out and about the day the Dr Phil episode of her aired and that would be far too soon for someone in serious rehab. She was either in some lax sober living facility relaxing until the wedding or at some friends Malibu home doing the same thing. I do not believe that a facility sent a "sober coach" with her to the wedding, IMO, that was Kathy's doing to keep peace, hence the SOS tweet when all hell broke loose with Kim at the wedding. JMO ETA, IMO, Alcohol has never been Kim's drug of choice, it is pills/powder/inhalants with a chaser of booze but the alcohol is the lesser/secondary addiction. For whatever reason, alcohol addiction is a lesser evil to that family than drug addiction is and that is why they use alcoholism as her illness publicly.

rehoboth May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 (edited) Oh Kim. Never change. http://www.tmz.com/2015/05/26/kim-richards-relapse-drugs-alcohol-wedding-mexico-brooke-rehab/ Who knows if it's true, but is anyone surprised? My first reaction is this article is not true and they had it written before the wedding. There is no sane person who has gone through what Kim has gone through and would not be on there very bestest behavior at such a public event. (I know, what's wrong with me?????) But this is Rehab Kim 4.0 so anything is possible. And it would explain the mysterious Kathy SOS where she wanted Kim, Kyle, Paris and Nicki to call her. Monty seems to be OK. Does anyone have a feel for how reliable TMZ has been throughout our Kim Crisis? I (gratefully) read all the links here and I remember that some of them had mistakes and some outright lies that regulars on this board could spot right away. Was TMZ pretty good in their details or one of the screw ups? So sad for her kids if it is true.

Avaleigh May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 TMZ has been pretty on the money wrt Kim. It doesn't surprise me at all that she probably made a fool of herself at the wedding. I can only think that she got attitude and felt defensive when some relative asked her if she was okay. That probably kicked it off and the next thing Brooke knows Kim is ranting to anyone who will listen about how so and so should worry about their own life and that she's just trying to enjoy her daughters wedding but other people are making it impossible for her. Ugh. I honestly think that a big part of Kim's love for Kingsley is that Kingsley can't judge Kim for taking drugs. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1186230

I never bought that crap she was spewing to Andy(2nd season reunion) that she was an alcoholic and that's why she went into rehab. No sober person comes out of "rehab" with prescriptions for Lexapro, Trazadone, Topamax and she must have been adding more to it with all that "pain" she is complaining about. IMO, she is a classic Doctor-Hopper/Doctor-Shopper. Very common out here, very sad 7 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1186297

There is no sane person who has gone through what Kim has gone through and would not be on there very bestest behavior at such a public event. On the contrary, I think a big event can be a trigger. Think of all the stresses: she probably thinks everyone's watching her, whispering about her, she knows she and her sobriety are in the spotlight, Kyle is there, Alexia and her stitched-up hand is there, there's an open bar and everyone is drinking and having fun, etc...

I (gratefully) read all the links here and I remember that some of them had mistakes and some outright lies that regulars on this board could spot right away. Was TMZ pretty good in their details or one of the screw ups? I think their track record is pretty good. Maybe not 100% accurate, but they've gotten a lot of things right. They were the first to break the story (of Kim's arrest), they got a lot of the police details right, and they also reported on the alleged trigger - Kim watching the reunion at Brooke's house in order to "blog" about it, which all of us laughed at since Kim never blogs, but Lo and behold she repeated that story on Dr. Phil, so... 9 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1186334

notnowimbusy May 26, 2015 Share May 26, 2015 Wonder who's still in Cabo w/Kim? And who's paying the bill? From Kathy's 911 text, you have to think something happened on Friday, somebody called Kathy (probably Brooke). Then Sat., she goes nuts. And according the TMZ she starts insulting Thayer's parents. Oh, I have to think this has got to have something to do with them paying for the wedding, and in reality have the right to ask Kim to either tone it down since this was "their" wedding (Kathy's one the first one), or leave (kind of like the Maitre'd at the Polo Lounge). Interesting that her son hasn't been heard from - so makes me curious if he's the one left to deal with Kim. What's next? Kim Richard arrested in Mexico for refusing to leave hotel? Rehab turns away Kim Richards for violating terms of agreement? Wasn't there something recently about her moving? So, if she doesn't go back to rehab - or if they refuse to have her there - where will she go??? Oh so many question, and no video ;-) Where were all those people and their phones!!!! Slackers ;) 10 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/825-kim-richards-no-escape-from-witch-mountain/page/82/#findComment-1186396
