Kim Richards: No Escape from Witch Mountain

[walnutqueen]

I'd hazard a guess that many medicine cabinets in BH bathrooms have some interesting pill bottles, too (hence Kim's predilection for bathrooms).   ;-)

[CookieBud]

On the TMZ live for May 28th, posted on that site, there is an update that Kim is reportedly back in the US but has not returned to rehab.  Here is the link.  http://www.tmz.com/videos/0_ulzf9pmz/    I believe the Kim story starts at about 23 minutes.

I still don't believe that she is truly missing and at least some of her family members  know where she is.  Why wouldn't they then contact the Mexican police?  Or hire detectives?  The Hiltons have the $$$$.  Clearly, they are not that worried or they would have confirmed she is truly missing in hopes that she could be found. 

 

I still think they quietly put her someplace to dry out and that this was the big emergency Kathy Hilton was tweeting about. Kim's behavior got back to her and she decided drastic action was needed.  That's why Kyle is back in Mexico, probably part of the "treatment."  And keep in mind that Kim did not attend the brunch the day after the wedding. I think she was gone by then. 

 

I think Kim will emerge sometime in the next week, and of course she'll be "cured"...just in time for her court date.

Kim is a narcissist she believes her services are always wanted back. Plus there hasnt been in firings yet. Around this time last year we knew Carlton and Joyce were done. I still believe Bravo has some intent to keep Kim even if it's just in a limited role like a friend.

 

 That would be something since Kim is no one's friend. Kim's name and face have been in the news more than any other off season, I'll be surprised and gratefully so, if she's not back. More than ever before people are curious about her and that's bank to Bravo.

[Lura]

How ridiculous is this?  That Kim has been lying low at Brandi's?  You know how Brandi would love the headlines proclaiming that she helped a friend during her hour of need.  I also thought how ironic it would be if Kim were holing up at the Beverly Hills Hotel (if the hotel would have her).  That does it for my guesses this early in the morning!

[Avaleigh]

I'm sure people know where Kim is but there's little doubt in my mind that she's in the midst of a full on bender. I don't think she really even gives a shit about her court date. She thinks one of her family members and her lawyer will take care of it for her. Kim always expects for everything to sort itself out because she's always had people doing that for her. 

 

She must have got her hands on some really terrific drugs while she was down there, yikes. I already feel sorry for Brooke's in-laws. Imagine them thinking about holidays and everything with Kim possibly being a part of the equation? She is a nightmare for anyone to have to deal with.

 

I'm just imagining Kim showing up for filming with a Mexican boyfriend in tow and we'll all be wondering whether or not he's her dealer like how we were with Ken. And because I'm apparently a terrible person, my mind is floating to the scene in Hawaii where Kyle and Mauricio share a loving kiss and so Kim and Ken 2.0 felt like they had to share one too and it was all embarrassing and everything. I can't help but picture Kim trying to do some weirdly competitive thing where she has a man that she feels can compare to Mauricio in terms of looks and then makes a BFD about them both being Mexican as though it matters. Then she'll move in with him only to move out as the season comes to a close. 

 

I will say this. I've never believed the rumors that Kyle has insisted that she and Kim are a package deal. That being said, isn't Andy/Bravo all about keeping on the wives who are easy to work with and have good relationships with production and the people behind the scenes. You'd think they'd have been tired of Kim and her shenanigans back in season two.

 

Regarding Taylor's comments--I thought it was interesting that she implied that Kim was actually worse in the first season. I knew she was bad there but I thought she came off the worst in the second season so I suspect there was probably some pretty gnarly shit in season one that ended up on the cutting room floor. 

[zoeysmom]

I am sure Kim Dr shops/hops but I also see her buying her pills from some dealer on the street as well. It is just as easy to get narcotics from street dealers as some Dr's, if not more so.

Or from your dying ex-husband.

[WireWrap]

Or from your dying ex-husband.

Or your mentally ill son and your mentally ill addict nephew. Kim is just hell bent on getting high and IMO, the drug itself does not matter, just the end result.

[tulip555]

I always seem to picture Kim drinking at Cabo, but according to witnesses, she wasn't.  It must, then, have been drugs she was on if I have this right.  I know that alcohol emboldens you (or it does me!), so she must have taken something else to have exploded like she did.  I still can't see Kim or anyone dressing down their daughter and the daughter's new in-laws who have PAID for the wedding!  What on earth was she on to have become that aggressive???  There's a whole lot I don't know about drugs and sniffing that stuff, mainly because I've never done them myself, but I shake my head every time someone mentions her behavior.  She must have an entire war chest! 

 

I'd think Kim's doctors would start to be very cautious about prescribing if they think about Michael Jackson.  If Kim OD'd on one of those medications, and died, the Hiltons might have a gigantic payday coming to them -- and someone else would lose their license to practice medicine!

In my own experience alcohol alone can make one VERY aggressive, but I suppose she had also taken her own mixture of substances

All that is missing from Kim's cocktails of doom are, the wool of bat, toe of frog and eye of newt. She seems to ingest everything else she can get.

[notnowimbusy]

It must have been bad if they are still keeping her in hiding, and especially because nobody has come out to say she's absolutely fine, and being specific about what she's doing and where she is.    Usually by now somebody comes out with a lame excuse, and the usual "she's doing great".

Yes, that's the sole thing that has me leaning toward that rumor. The only other thing I could conceive of is the family guilting Kyle into "help your sister!" as usual.

 

ETA: The timing of that nose job! That makes me think she added opiates to the cocktail long before Monty moved in.

[Lura]

missy jo, thanks for the reminder about the nose job.  That's something that WireWrap mentioned (above).  I remember at the time being concerned about the drugs Kim would be taking, but in the intervening years I'd forgotten all about it.  That would have been an obvious choice of a time when Kim started using/abusing again.

 

About that "rumor" of a package deal:  I'm the one who started it.  Well, I referred to an article I read, which was an interview with Kyle in a well-respected magazine, the name of which has escaped me.  It wasn't from a gossip site, where you read something and think it could be true or might not be true.  I took it seriously because it was a direct quote from Kyle and because of the magazine it was in, whatever that was.  Of course, there's no telling whether Kyle still has the same feelings now that she had then.  In fact, I wonder about that.  I'd sort of feel that her feelings have changed, wouldn't you?  I mean, after all the stuff that Kim has put her through, I'd think that Kyle would want to wash her hands of her sister, but I could be wrong.

 

Someone wrote recently that they thought Kyle was actually enjoying being "the responsible sister" and was getting mileage out of being the poor, put-on sister.  I'm beginning to think whoever wrote that was right.  It seems to me that Kyle goes back and forth on it.  It wouldn't be an easy situation to be in.

I think she went back to drugs in Paris. Remember how she was late to the cooking lesson then blamed Lisa/Ken for her being late? When they got back to BH, at Kyle's store's grand opening, she told Kyle that she had taken the wrong medicine with her, a med she had a "bad reaction" to but still took it the entire trip, despite seeing a Dr. there. IMO, she was high the entire trip and has not been clean/sober since then. JMO

If you ask me, I think Kyle and Kim set that whole scene doing what they do best = damage control!

Kyle had to protect Kim. And knowing from what happened in the limo they both figured production would show Kim high and not cover for her. So they decided to play the "Kim took the wrong pill" game.

Addicts know they drugs especially those addicts long as Kim. She felt great on that balcony being on those pills of hers. Kyle couldn't even have more disappointed pokerface.

[notnowimbusy]

I suspect everything is just fine.   Kim went off on Thayer's parents because she discovered her precious juicer was missing from her room.   When Brooke came to their defense, she exploded and said "you should have my back".   Kim stated emphatically that she would not leave Mexico until her juicer was returned.   She secretly suspects that Kyle has it now hidden at her "goddamn house" in PS.

I think part of Kim's last rehab after Season 2 was that Kim and Kyle were to wipe the slate clean, not go back and learn to trust.  Kyle knowing and suspecting things are two different things.  Kyle has Brandi breathing down her neck accusing her of wanting Kim to fail.  Kyle doesn't want to assume Kim is using  because Kim comes unglued and Brandi doesn't want to say anything because she wants Kim to think she is her friend.   So Kyle is damned if she says anything about Kim without personally witnessing her drink or otherwise intoxicated or she is covering it up.   I think that is why Kyle prefers-let Kim tell her own story but not to the point where she takes the fall with say someone like Brandi pointing fingers at her.

I think Kim must be on Satan's own bender for the rest of the Richards-Hilton clan to have gone radio silent instead of going on with their usual happy bullshit about how well Kim's doing, how hard she's working, and how proud they are of her.

I also have a suspicion someone got quietly disinvited from the Hilton-Rothschild soirée and is not taking it well at all. Why even bother trying when people are going to be so mean anyway?

I doubt this but Im sure Nicky's soon to be hubby family wont take any disrespect from her side of the family. Im pretty sure they are well aware of the nut jobs and addicts that are in her family. And if someone like Kim and Conrad (depending their legal matters) acts up they could get them escorted out. A family with as much money and power as them wont tolerate their bs. Not one.

BTW Im watching Intervention on Demand from the March 29th episode. There is a man on here who has a heroin addiction and guess what he used the same excuse as Kim in her Bravo blog that he too has the bronchitis but hes going through withdrawal.

Kim has NEVER been sober whether from alcohol, drugs, ... I don't understand why so many people continue to talk about her slipping and DRINKing. It has always been apparent that Kim uses more than alcohol.

Edited June 1, 2015 by BookElitist

[MissMel]

I may be projecting a bit here but, Kim's use is a great deflection. "Look at her, focus on her, that way you won't see me." Type of thing.

In that limo scene, Kim said something about "at least I don't drink all day" to Kyle.

Look, I got the sister rivalry down pat. When my sister was alive, nobody could love us more than we loved each other. But we didn't skip a beat to cut each other down, either. And I mean hateful at times. Flat out mean.

But if you were looking at her, you didn't see me. I get the feeling this might be happening in Kim's world. Maybe all the sisters are going off the rails right now. I don't know. But it sure is convenient to throw out the one screwing up spectacularly in order to not be looked at too close, yourself. It happens.

I have a sibling is an alcoholic.  I drink as well but responsibly.  Whenever I try to talk to the sibling about the problem, she always turns it around on me and says, "well let's talk about how worried everyone is about YOUR drinking!"  Which isn't true, but she's deflected the conversation.

 

And Kim looks high as hell in every single picture she takes.  I think she is one of those people who doesn't hold their booze very well.

It is also what a lot of addicts do best: deflect.  They think in their minds they have the world fooled. That is, until they fuck up and when someone tries to confront them on what they are doing, they have to sling mud their way in order to get the topic off of them. The thing with this kind of deflection, it only works if the person they are sling mud to, follows their lead. That is Kyle's downfall. Once Kim mentions something about something Kyle did or does, Kyle follows suit and then begins saying, "What do you mean me?" and then the topic is off Kim and on Kyle who begins to defend herself from Kim's accusations, then the topic turns to something else such as the Palms Springs house, and then it will go into Kyle not having Kim's back where Kyle will then rattle off a list of the times she has been there. It is almost brilliant how Kim uses deflection if it wasn't so devious and malicious. But again, it only works if the other person allows it to happen.

 

YoFo was brilliant when Brandi tried to deflect and bring up YoFo's daughter as being an alcoholic. YoFo didn't allow the conversation to go there and instead, kept on track with what she was talking about. That is how you shut down someone who is deflecting.

[BlackMamba]

Apparently Kim is back in LA from what ROL is reporting but not going to rehab.

If this has a lick of truth put her ass in jail. She has 9 days left before her court appearance and thinks the law wont touch her.

Makes wonder why Kyle went back to Mexico for a hot minute.

There comes a time in many addict/alcoholics life when the family just needs to step away from the addict and IMO, Kyle/Kathy and their families as well as Kim's kids, need to do that now with Kim. She needs to hit her rock bottom and then decide on her own to seek help. They can not force her to stay clean when she is hell bent on getting high/drunk so rehab at this point is useless because she does not want it nor does she believe she needs it. A dose of reality is exactly what she needs, be it through the courts (DUI) or loosing it all, reality will be the only thing to get through to her if anything does.

[zoeysmom]

I am going to take a wild guess here- the pick up letters have gone out and Kim has one and Brandi does not.  Kim's agent is most likely trying to have her ready and available for filming later this month.  Probably another White Party and more former RHOBH-please, please let there be Joyce, Adrienne, Camille even Dana if she is out of prison and no Brandi or Carlton.  I would like to see a big toothy JR at the party without Brandi.

 

Kim will most likely be doing quite a bit of recovery via out patient so she can work.  No one at Bravo cares if Kim is drunk or sober-drunk sells.  Sober is boring.

I think Kim doesn't give a shit. She doesn't have to. So why bother?

My sister used to say that to me, too. Nobody was worried about me and my drinking because we had her to focus on. I wasn't puking up blood or gathering up DUIs. I was the little sister that said her friends needed to leave because her big sister was most likely in trouble, that one night. And it was a night....

I got one phone call. She said "I don't know where I am". I said "look around. You are in jail. I just need to know which county. Are the walls dirty or clean?" "Dirty". "Good job. You didn't even make it across the county line."

She didn't hurt anyone or kill herself, either. My husband at the time, peeled off 5 $100 dollar bills and told me to go get my sister. If only it was that easy....

I had to call my parents, at 3AM, and tell them I couldn't get my sister out of lockup. My mom answered the phone. She quickly passed it over to my Dad. I asked him to unlock the door so I could crash on the couch. He did. And we met her 11AM court call. Shackled and all. Fun.

We sat in the parking lot and I asked him if he ever envisioned us here. "No, can't say that I have."

I have a hate on for Kim. She's still alive and that just burns my butt. Granted, I'm biased. But damn! The spotlight will come back around. It always does.

You really think so? I agree with you that Bravo doesn't care if Kim is sober or not, and this whole fake rehab ultimatum is ridiculous and non-sensical. But do you really think they'd ask her back after everything that's happened? What would her storylines be? I'm three days sober?! It's all Kyle's fault. I'm in 100% pain, but I'm on a journey...

I think if she ever returns, it'll be in a sort of cameo role. And that's down the line.

Kim sober is boring, but also another entire "broken record" season storyline of Kim "is she or isn't she drunk and/ or high" is just as boring, tedious,  and is turn the channel worthy.

[BlackMamba]

Zoey is right though. Bravo is looking for ratings and to cash in. They could care less. For years they and Kim have heard and read how boring she is and she needs to go. Now her addiction is a "storyline" that we cant stop talking about and even other blogs. Bravo pays attention to this so why get rid of her when shes the most talked about HW going? No shit shes an addict and dying but whos making that choice - her.

Ive only been here since March 1, and this thread particularly exploded around February when it was stuck at four pages the episodes now look damn near 5000 replies; threads in season 5 from episode 10 til the reunions been 600-1600 responses. Speaks volumes. RHOBH (along with NJ) are built on controversy, scandal and headlines.

Someone also brought up the White Party. When is Kyle's WP usually? Because lets be real when filming starts back Kyle will be back babysitting Kim's ass which was probably why she hopped herself on a plane to go get her. Please Bravo/Andy right now has a goldmine with their drama.

I don't know, I don't think Kim is going to do any in patient or out patient sobriety work. IMO, she doesn't think she needs it at all and will not follow through, which is par for the course with her. I also do not think Kim will be back but if she is, it will be on a very limited basis like as a guest at the annual White Party or some large gathering held by Kyle but nothing more. I also do not see Bravo paying her in a limited role either but they may use this step back for her as a tester move to see if she is missed and/or to see if she can stay clean/sober both on and off the camera. I really think (hope) that Bravo now realize that most viewers want her off the show and most feel she is a liability.   JMO

[Lura]

So, are we to believe that this has all been a ruse?  That Kim has never been missing?  That she's back home but not in rehab?  That the Richards (and Monty) have been playing a shell game?  Trying to make monkeys out of the press and the public?  If so, it was a big mistake to pull on the press.  They will hound her forever.  As for the public, it wasn't very smart, either.  If they're trying to establish more good will for Kim, this will only turn them away in numbers.  We were playing "Where is she?" and they took away our  fun.

 

My computer wouldn't find the story that someone linked us to, the one that told about Kim being home.  Is that the one that said she's not been in Mexico?

 

I think I've had it.  I think I'm genuinely fed up with Kim Richards and the other two Richards babes, who had to have been in on this.  It's because Kim isn't taking her life seriously, and neither are they.  It's all a game to them.  No wonder Paris and Conrad and Chad  have been in so much trouble.  Look at their mothers and their aunts!  Great role models, hmmm?  IMHO, Kim should be in jail/prison to keep her relatives away from her and should be given very few telephone privileges with them.  (And don't put her on cleaning duty where she has access to inhalants!)  Let her fight this addiction ALONE!  Give her no medication, and let her suffer until she's SCREAMING for the Betty Ford Clinic or any other good ones!  Let her feel the hell that the drugs have done to her body and her mind!!!  Then, see that she's admitted to a facility for a LONG time. 

 

I've been hoping that Kim would be well enough to return to RHOBH, for her sake, not for mine.  Not anymore!  She needs drugs just to get through her tapings and the viewing.  It's too much for her.  She should wait tables or do whatever she has to do to stay alive.  No makeup, no close-ups.  THAT'S REALITY!  She needs to know that she's NOT a star anymore.  She's an addict, and she'll always be an addict.  Kyle won't like this arrangement because she'll be in great need of a new storyline.  Too bad.  Maybe she'll stop enabling and covering up.  Kathy?  She'll find another "cause," such as, MAYBE, her children.

I don't know that Kyle, who was in Mexico with Mauricio last week probably looking for Kim, knew that she was back "home". I don't think she, Kim, is talking to her yet and I did believe her, Kyle, when she told TMZ that she had not spoken to Kim since the wedding. I also don't think Kathy knew exactly where she was either because I am sure Kathy is pissed she missed the wedding shower for Niki. IMO, Kim got back and either stayed with a "friend" or at some hotel without letting anyone know as a form of punishment to them. That would fit her MO, "Lets see how they react to me being gone" kind of deal. Had either Kathy or Kyle knew where she was, they would have done the standard tweet that "Kim is fine and doing well", and that did not happen. JMO

I think she will have a story arc apologizing. . . or trying to fake it to Lisar and Eileen.  She will have to come to terms with her malicious behavior. 

 

Then I think she will probably go through mourning the loss of Monty.  Even though she ditched out on him again for this past six weeks or so.

The White Party takes place in June. Mauricio's b-day is on June 25th.

See there. I expect fireworks.

[zoeysmom]

Just for filming purposes-the White Party is usually in late June-this year it may vary because of the really BIG wedding-July 10th in London at the Kensington Palace Orangery.   http://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-3103944/GIRL-TOWN-Hotel-heiress-Nicky-Hilton-marry-British-banking-scion-James-Rothschild-Kensington-Palace-Orangery.html

 

This is a perfect time to grab the rest of the husband and wives and have a nice early season vacation. 

 

I agree with the writer Nicki's shower was tacky.

Does that sound like Kim? Apologizing? It doesn't to me. If she can't even apologize to her own niece for her dog biting her, I think she's a lost cause. She created a scene at dinner in Amsterdam and threw out malicious innuendos about LisaR's husband, and still managed to force LisaR to apologize to her! I don't think I've seen Kim apologize for anything, ever.

As much as producers work with the cast on creating storylines, they can't turn someone into someone they're not. (Besides, Kim already had her "I'm sober" storyline, and we saw how well that went). She's just nasty and unrepentant. Andy talked about HW's in two ways - HW's you love to hate, and HW's you hate to hate. I think Kim is clearly in the hate to hate category at this point. That's what makes me think she's joining Brandi on the unemployment line.

[elainebenis]

Per her Instagram, Kyle's in Puerto Vallarta (north of PV in Punta Mita to be precise). Has there been any indication that Kim left Cabo for Vallarta?

 

I suspect not and that Kyle's just enjoying an extend vacation with her hubby and staying the hell away from Clusterfuck Kim. I hope so, anyway.

The problem with an apology arc for Kim - shes unapologetic! Shes going to be rehearsed and fake. Kim really doesnt have a big problem with Eileen, other than her pointing that finger in her face and calling her beast, she knows who gave a damn to give her flowers when she detoxing or excuse me suffering from bronchitis. Remember how non aggressive she was at the reunion with Eileen, she almost acted like an innocent child who was getting told off by her mother but in a respectful tone. Her biggest problem is and will be Lisa R. Because Lisa R will know and call her out if shes performing for the cameras. Lisa R wont have any problem calling bullshit in her confessionals if she suspect's fakeness. If Im these two and the rest I'll be on toes and tread lightly! Kim cant be trusted anymore with what comes out her mouth especially if shes never going to be sober.

Here are my predictions as far as returning cast:

Kim will be on an official Bravo hiatus to focus on her "recovery". (Never to return).

Brandi will not be asked to return but will just coinsidentally will just happen to show up where filming is going on. Bravo can either obsucure her face or let her film her asshole self free of charge.

Kyle and LisaV will be back since Kim and Brandi are gone.

LisaR and Eileen will return as well, as long as Kim & Brandi are gone

Camille will return as a friend and will film more.

Adrienne will do a cameo or two.

Taylor, no way, too messy.

[BlackMamba]

Based ZM's dates

White Party - end of the month or early in July.

Mauricio's bday - I expect he and Kyle will have some type of romantic get away. ( Wasnt the Spain trip his bday I forget.)

Nicky's wedding - I believe this will be the bonding trip. All the women will be invited. The Hiltons get their regular season guest appearance spot, flaunt the wedding and Bravo will film it with the permission of Kathy. Plus it'll be a tad of drama but more "apologizing" for behaviors and misunderstandings from this season.

This is what I have in my head.

Here are my predictions as far as returning cast:

Kyle and LisaV will be back since Kim and Brandi are gone.

LisaR and Eileen will return as well, as long as Kim & Brandi are gone

Oh, The Lisas and Eileen would had came back regardless of Kim and Brandi IMO. This is LA there are plenty of crackpots and addicts in that city who are well known that these people know that are worse than Kim and Brandi. It's not like Kim and Lisa V share scenes unless Kyle is present. They do not like each other and Lisa V keeps Brandi at armslength. Lisa R can put up with both Kim and Brandi because it gives her something to do in trying to save their souls and have a storyline. Eileen is the most normal of the group and there for banter and side jokes, unless she gets dragged into drama.

Plus money will always lead one back. I recall before S5 started filming Lisa V held up production because rumors swirled she wouldn't return after the rest came after her in S4. Andy took a flight all the way from NY to LA and groveled to her return along with a nice rumored salary increase of 500K. Plus I believe Bravo sent her to Mexico the night of game night, recognized shes never been to a game nights in the history of this show.

 I hope this is how it will be. Otherwise I will fast forward past Kim, Kim/Kyle, Kim/anyone scenes, whether she is drunk, sober, dead or alive, apologetic or in full bitch mode. I have had enough of her. If Brandy shows up I'll zip right past her too.

 

The reason I post here is in hope that Bravo would understand how fed up many of us are with Kim and fire her sorry butt.

[Lura]

IMO, Kim got back and either stayed with a "friend" or at some hotel without letting anyone know as a form of punishment to them.

 

That's what I thought, WireWrap.  I've been thinking that all along.  But when I read someone say that she wasn't in Mexico after all, I took that to mean that she'd been home all along.  That's why I started my post with a question.  As you said, and I agree, that seemed like Kim's MO.  It would be just like her to want everyone worried about her. 

 

In any case, she's presumably not in rehab, which IMHO is where she belongs.  As long as she fails to take her problem seriously, I'm done with her.  It seems like the utmost of hautiness, stubbornness and carelessness to go along like nothing ever happened, despite her meltdown in Mexico.  She is out to prove that she is right and that everyone else on earth is wrong!  That just doesn't wash with me.  IMO, she needs someone who's tougher than she is, and that person is a judge with good common sense and rock hard determination.  Since I'm not a law expert and don't know what restrictions there are for a judge's sentencing, I'll leave it there.

[BlackMamba]

It begins

Kim Richards has just lost 2 of the most important people in her life, because we've learned her sister Kyle and husband Mauricio Umansky have washed their hands of her ... ironically, to save her.

Sources connected with the family tell TMZ, Kim stayed in Mexico after her daughter's wedding and was perpetually wasted. We're told in the last few days, Kyle and Mauricio had a security guard fly down to Cabo and literally force Kim onto an airplane where she returned home to L.A.

Our sources say Kim has promised to re-enter rehab, but it's not flying with Kyle and Mauricio. We're told they feel they have done what they can do to save Kim, and the only thing left is tough love.

So, Kim is no longer their problem. If she ends up on the streets, then that's what has to happen. We're told things are so bad, Kyle and Mauricio feel Kim is actually in danger of dying. But they believe the only hope is for her to realize they will not be her safety net to constantly bail her out.

Very sad.

As Giselle said, this would be fine with me. And I also post my reaction here hoping Bravo pays attention to the various forums.

 

I am over the Kim Richards show, and I will not be watching another season of it.   IIRC, I read that Lisa R and Eileen Davidson are definitely back, and since Kyle and Lisa V went to the NBC thing, they're back too.  (No way is Andy letting Lisa V go).

 

That's 4 of 7 - with Yolands up in the air.   I think if Brandi had been asked back, she would have leaked it by now. To bring this back around to Kim, Bravo was probably watching and waiting, but the more time that passes with any type of resolution, the more I believe they would be inclined not to bring her back. It's too risky, especially since she blamed the show for her "relapse".  

 

Say they bring her back and something awful happens - they really can't claim they didn't know she was a risk, can they?   And if they bring her back, one can only imagine the stipulations and restrictions the legal team would put in her contract.  Bravo can always find another HW or 2 - why take the risk? Is she really worth it?

 

I also think they are probably looking around for a replacement for Yolanda (in case she decides not to return), so they probably have a nice little pool to choose from.

 

They could make Kim a "friend" (to whom I don't know) but they had enough trouble getting her to show up when she was a full time HW.
