Kim Richards: No Escape from Witch Mountain

[Maharincess]

I don't see how any of that would change much for the family. Having a home and transportation won't stop Kim from drinking, taking drugs, or shoplifting. Nor will it solve the problem of waiting for the phone to ring to hear Kim's been arrested again, or worse.

Kim has had homes before, and it didn't do anything to prevent her from getting to her current state. She could move into the bedroom next door to Kathy, and she'd still be a drug addict and a drunk.

I agree, with free housing, free transportation and money put into her account, when does she hit bottom?

Maybe she needs to taste life on the streets and have her family cut her off in every way to finally hit her bottom.

I have a brother who became addicted to heroin when he was living in Germany. When he came home we tried and tried much like Kim's family to help him and he kept shitting all over our attempts to help, again much like Kim.

We were advised by educated trained professionals that paying his rent and stuff like that would be the worst thing we could do. He needed to face the consequences of his actions and choices and if that included living on the streets, so be it.

I don't think setting her up in a "cute condo" and paying her way to go wherever she wants is the answer.

Just my opinion.

Monty weighs in again.

 

http://www.people.com/article/kim-richards-ex-husband-monty-brinson-defends-her-instagram-rehab

 

 

""Her fans that have stayed with her through this roller coaster will see her very soon at what she's done best all her life since the age of 4."

 

I guess he's still talking about her TV offers.  Sure.

[Lura]

Oh, Monty!  Something about him makes me love him.  I think it's his unwavering support and his constant optimism.  Here he is, dying (we think), and he's spending his time defending Kim.  Sometimes, though, I think it's the drugs he's on -- pain pills, possibly mood elevators, anti-depressants (they're different), and who knows what else, that render him unable to see reality clearly.  One or the other, he's better than any PR firm for shining a good light on Kim.  He just won't give up, and for some reason, that's refreshing to me.  Have you ever heard of the Good News radio station?  All they give, all day long, is good news.  All we read about Kim is bad news, so I think of Monty as "Mr. Good News."  You expect that from him, and he delivers it.

 

Is Monty back in LA now?  Where is he staying?  He says he's in touch with Kim every day.  Where is she?  Last I knew, she was out on the streets, alone.

 

Keep going, Monty!  Keep going!  I think that defending Kim is helping to keep you alive, giving you a purpose for living.  Keep waxing poetic about all the joys and blessings in life.  If anyone knows what they are, it's you with your loving hashtags!

I think that Monty is just as drug addicted and delusional as Kim is. It's like he's living in an alternative universe where Kim is the movie star and he's basking in her glory. His constant admiration and sucking up to Kim and Kathy has just supported his lifestyle since he seems to have no source of income. If he's indeed dying of cancer, he's on some really hard core drugs to control his pain and cannot be in his right mind. Having been through this with several family members, I know that they're incapable of rational thought most of the time. You just have to go along with whatever they're thinking/believing at that moment in time. This whole thing is sickening and sad.

[Cosmic Muffin]

OT: Lura, and anyone else who would like good news, there is a news site called UpWorthy that reports on good news, heartwarming stories, etc. You might already be aware of it, but I only just discovered it recently. /OT

[Rahul]

Monty seems to be just as deluded as his ex-wife. Maybe it's the pills they're sharing.

[Lura]

It's interesting to me that more than one of us question Monty's health.  For someone who is supposedly nearing death, Monty certainly seems to be getting around.  On the other hand, I'm reminded of that picture with Kim's family, taken at Christmastime.  He looked like a skeleton because he'd lost so much weight.  Who knows?  With this family, you can believe almost anything.

[SwordQueen]

I think that Monty is just as drug addicted and delusional as Kim is. 

 

Agree.  I'm thinking that he's always been her biggest "fan" and enabler -- high, sober, or sick.  He's really not doing her any favors, either, by continuing to make excuses for her behavior, pandering to her ego, and sweeping her issues under the rug.  

 

 

 

Has anyone heard of the Hulu series "Hotwives of ___"?  I just started watching it and it's hilarious.  It's a Ho'wife parody show and their first season includes two BH-like characters; A British, Lisa-esque character, and a "Former child star, current ditzy addict" character, based on Kim.   "Showbiz is in my blood -- as is heroin."

[Maharincess]

The thing with addiction is that getting clean is the easiest part of recovery. It's staying clean that takes hard work. I don't see Kim ever putting in the work and effort needed for a long term, healthy recovery.

People think if you detox, the hard part is behind you but the hard part has just begun.

[notnowimbusy]

I don't give too much credibility to what Monty says.   Not necessarily the drugs talking, but more about desperately wanting Kim to be ok after he's gone.   It's obvious he reads things, and it's been speculated that she will go further downhill (if that's possible) when he dies.   He doesn't want to be blamed, even in death, for her complete collapse.   He doesn't see her, and I'm sure when he speaks with her everything is "fine", and he's buying into her delusions.   He said don't believe 90% of what you read.  Ok, what part isn't true?  Her drinking, self-medicating, shoplifting, arrest?

 

When my SIL was dying of cancer, she excused all of the horrible behavior of her grown son.   He was doing drugs, cheated on his wife and went off with a much younger woman who happened to be a meth addict.   Despite earning over $250K a year, he had no savings, and blew through all his money.  Yet, his mother was delusional about him, rationalizing all his actions, and denied his drug/alcohol use.   It somehow gave her comfort to think he was ok, and would be fine.

5150! Kim Richards Hospitalized After Desperate Family’s Bid To Save Her – Inside Her Rock Bottom

Posted on Aug 19, 2015 @ 15:20PM

 

There is finally hope for troubled former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards: RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that she is currently getting medical care after being subjected to a 5150 hold!

A close associate of Richards confirmed the news to Radar after multiple sources came forward to reveal that she was hospitalized on a 5150 hold last week. In California, physicians can impose an involuntary 72-hour confinement on someone who is assessed to be a danger to themselves or others. Radar previously reported Richards’ family was pushing for the move.

-snip-

Richards was released after three days following the 5150, but is now hospitalized at another facility in Southern California.

“Kim finally realized that she needed help and is truly committed to getting it,” said a source. “She voluntarily checked into an inpatient facility in Orange County. The family has been very supportive of this move.”

Another insider claimed, “They told her she had to do it or she was cut off from all of them financially. It is tough love.”

But now, sources close to Richards seem hopeful.

“Kim finally realized that she needed help and is truly committed to getting it,” said a source.  (from the Radar Online article)

 

Isn't this the 5th time this phrase has been trotted out since the spring?

 

And they (the Hiltons) threatened to cut her off financially if she didn't check herself into rehab this time.  So they are bribing her.  The French have a phrase - "the more things change, the more they remain the same."  Sounds about right.

 

I'm glad Monty thinks all is well.

[pawsodoom]

 

“Kim finally realized that she needed help and is truly committed to getting it,”

 

I'll believe when I see it. We've heard it all before.

[becauseIsaidso]

These continued, manipulative ploys to gain leniency from the court and sympathy from the public really piss me off. IF there were ANY sincerity at all in this latest foray into "help" (LOVE the use of such an ambiguous term), kim and whomever else is involved in her latest spin away from taking responsibility would just SHUT UP AND DO IT.

[AnnA]

This seems to be her method when she gets close to a court date. 

 

Wasn't her court date August 16th?

[notnowimbusy]

This was in the Daily News:

 

Troubled reality TV star Kim Richards is in a "program" after her shoplifting arrest at a Target store this month, her new lawyer said in court Thursday.

Lawyer Sara Caplan told a Los Angeles judge she had a signed retainer letter from the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast member and a letter "from the program she's staying in."

The judge approved her appointment without Richards present and set a new hearing for Sept. 11 so Caplan could review the police report and surveillance video and talk to her client.

"She's doing well," Caplan said of Richards outside court.

 

 

Hmmm in a program????

[LotusFlower]

As usual, she reports to a "program" to avoid a court appearance. Again. But of course she'll bolt from this latest rehab as soon as she can, and she'll eventually have to face the music. Plus, keep in mind that today's now-rescheduled hearing was for the shoplifting case. If memory serves, her Polo Lounge/drunken arrest hearing was rescheduled for the end of the month. And if I'm remembering it correctly, the judge said the last postponement would be the final one, so....another court date next week? Is Kim required to be there? Will she be in yet another "program?"

[AnnA]

I accidently stumbled on this and don't know if it's true or not but Perez Hilton just reported that Kim is NOT in another program.  He reported this tonight at 8:14 PM EST contradicting the earlier report he made today at 11:49 AM EST saying she was.  Huh?

[LotusFlower]

If she's not in a rehab program or hospital, then she lied to the court, and she (or her family) paid a facility to lie on her behalf. Who knows. It's all so tiresome.

[Giselle]

Why do I wish she would have pulled this shit in Thailand.

[Lura]

I'll believe that Kim honestly desires wellness when she stays in a program for six months and has no pending court date when she enters.  Until then, I'm wary of what's up her sleeve.  Actually, Kim has so many lawsuits against her that it's going to be a long time before she's free from all court dates.  Every time she does a dance, she uses the same moves, and her act is beginning to bore me.  I see posters on this board (including me) with hopeful messages, and the next time you read their thoughts, they're negative.  It's because we're hopeful, and then again our hopes are dashed.  If we think that we're sick of it, imagine how her family feels!  With this latest news, I have two things I'd like to say to Kim:  The first is GOOD LUCK, and the second one is PROVE ITI

[notnowimbusy]

Not shocked that she isn't in another rehab - mostly because she doesn't feel she has an issue with alcohol.  She just does not consider prescription drugs a problem.  Her "program" is probably a schedule of seeing a shrink, and going to AA meetings.  Weren't AA meeting a mandatory part of her plea deal for the Polo Lounge arrest?    I'm sure she dragged out the old "I took some meds that I had a bad reaction to, but I wasn't drinking".    Wasn't she seeing Dr. Sophy? Same guy Taylor Armstrong was seeing?

[thewhiteowl]

Kim is like a slo-mo trainwreck. While I don't really care what happens to her or what she's doing or even where the hell she is, I can't totally look away. lol Actually that's not true. I have more compassion for those victims of a trainwreck than I do for Kim, my compassion for her is burnt out.

[becauseIsaidso]

Sweet fvcking holy hell DAYAM.....what an analogically weirdly chardonnay driven insight I've just had!!!

 

Kimmie and Rehab....think about this in terms of Lucy, Charlie Brown and the football....

 

Lucy = kimmie

 

Charlie Brown = fans, viewers, public and suckers at large

 

Football = rehab

 

SNAP!

[Lura]

WOW, becauseisaidso!!!  Them's some wild imaginings!!!  I can't fathom where your  mind would go on Chablis!!! 

 

Here's another one for you:

 

Charlie Brown = Kim's family, RHOBH fans, general public

 

The Great Pumpkin =  Kim

 

(Neither Kim nor The Great Pumpkin ever shows up.  You just wait ..... and wait ..... and wait some more.)

Edited August 22, 2015 by thewhiteowl

[Lura]

Will somebody please straighten out this poor lost soul about Kim?  You see, I read that Kim is back in a "program."  Then, after that news was posted, several other people made comments that blamed Kim, as if she wasn't in any program or rehab place.  I added my little Charlie Brown story about Kim never showing up, but no sooner did I write it than I got the feeling she was NOT in rehab.

 

So, my questions are:  Is Kim in rehab?  Kathy Hilton tweeted that she is, somewhere in Orange County. If she's in rehab, why are posters knocking her for not being in rehab?  Finally, is a "program not rehab?  I thought that was another word frequently used for rhab.  What other program would there be?

 

Isn't her new lawyer the same one who represented Lindsay Lohan?

 

Many heartfelt thanks in advance to anyone who will take the time to help me out.

[zoeysmom]

I do not think Kim is in rehab or an in patient program.  I believe Monty's second ex-wife lives in Orange County-she may have taken refuge with her.

 

The reason Kim does not have to appear in court is her attorney is most likely appearing for her after Kim signed a document that allows her attorney to  represent her through sentencing it is called an Appearance, Stipulations and Waivers form.  So Kim could have easily checked in one day and gotten a letter from the facility saying she is a patient and checked out the next.  or it could be as simple as Kim lied to her attorney or had Monty write a heartfelt message with a lot of #bigheart,#misunderstood#big comeback#Oscar worthy performance.

[zulualpha]

Well,  there's this fun game called "Where's Kimmie?".  People (mostly women probably) gather on a message board and try to figure out where Kimmie has landed after her latest debacle.  Jail?  No, not this time.  Rehab?  Maybe but not according to Perez Hilton who's only slightly more credible than Kathy Hilton who's at best uninformed and at worst a big fat liar.  Her ex husband's second wife's place?  Sounds like a good possibility and we can only hope they cleared out all the liquor and prescription drugs first.  As far as what other program Kimmie would be involved in, how about operation CYA and DTR (don't take responsibiltiy) where Kimmie gets a lawyer to go to court for her so she can pretend she's not fried most of the time while she stays home and plans her next shoplifting trip.

Maybe with some planning Kim will graduate from the dollar bins at Target.  My husband was amazed she lifted 600 items.  That took a lot of concentration.

[Lura]

IIRC, it wasn't 600 items; it was $600 dollars' worth of items.  Also, her stash wasn't all from the dollar section.  She wandered into the regular store as well. 

 

Of all the things that Kim has pulled during her adult life, the shopping trip to Target is my favorite -- the only one I can really chuckle over.  I'd pay a steep price of admission to see a video of Kim loading up her baskets.  It's one of those things that is not funny, but it is.

 

I read, probably in one of those gossip sites, that Kim had a problem with shoplifting even when she was young.  It said that she would come home with something like a doll that she had taken, and the stores didn't prosecute because she was so young and famous, and it would have ruined her career.  When her mother found out, she made Kim return things, but it didn't cure Kim.  If this story was true, then Kim has had a lifelong problem with shoplifting.

If I could only remember where I read it, my info would be much more authentic.  I'll take a wild guess and say TMZ.   I swear that Kathy has her publicity people reading this thread.  They are now clarifying that Kim is in an in-patient hospital in Orange County. 

 

There are two sentences I think they should consider dropping from these releases before the public at large has one giant gag.  The first is: "Kim realizes that she needs help."  The other is: "Kim is committed to changing her life."

 

In a way, I feel sorry for this family ... just a little bit.  They have famous names, so they've had to iive out this sordid drama in the public eye.  I can't even imagine how embarrassing this has been for them.  Then, I think, "Well, they're the kind who get married on the grounds of Kensington Palace.  I guess they make their beds the way they want to, and this is the result." 

[NewDigs]

And they're also the kind who spawn vag-flashing airheads.

And I'm going to guess that Nicky's new in-laws cringed all the way to the Palace and continue to cringe today.

I'm not sure how capable any of the Hilton clan are of embarrassment.

I think I feel the worst for Kyle. I feel like I can see her expressions of pain. And hurt. And anger.

I feel for Kyle.  I think Nicki's new relatives have experienced mental illness as her husband's father committed suicide.   I think the family  was fortunate the Richards girl cousins all got together for Brooke's second wedding because things seem to be coming apart at the seams. One of the Hilton boys didn't make Nicki's wedding because he was under house arrest, Chad didn't make it, I don't think Whitney or Kimberly made it.    Things are not well.  I will be anxious to see if Kathy Hilton has more cameos this season.

 

If Kim sticks around for this hospitalization the good news is she will probably miss most of filming so there is no reason for her to return. YEAH!!!!

[phoenix780]

I feel like the court's time (and my tax dollars) are being wasted.  Same with Kim's, for that matter.  Maybe instead of saying she's in some mysterious program for a minute and delaying the court case...why not just have her donate a bunch of money to a rehab facility?  Not the fancy spa kind, but the kind regular non-celebrities could conceivably go to if they needed help.  

 

We're going in circles here, she's highly unlikely to face any meaningful punishment or, sadly, to legitimately be seeking help.  Why not take the opportunity to transfer some wealth from her family to the community?  That way there's at least some good to come out of it.

My sympathy and prayers go out to Kim's children.  99% of the compassion I felt for Kim evaporated when I heard how she spoke to her adult children backstage at the Dr. Phil show when she thought no one was listening.  So rude, so disrespectful of them as adults and human beings, so selfish, demanding and arrogant.  On RHoBH Kim's all "my kids, my kids!" and portraying herself as mother of the year.  So not true.  She's just awful and I hope to hell someone is counseling her children to stop interacting with her until she turns over a new leaf.   I hope Kyle stays strong as well and doesn't get sucked back into the black hole of neediness and destruction that is Kim's world.  Probably the dog attack on her child and lack of accountability or sympathy from Kim was the last straw for Kyle and Mauricio. 

[Lura]

I hope that Kim is under the care of a top psychiatrist who, in the future, will be able to dig down deep and find the kernel of truth that caused Kim to turn to drink and drugs.

Kim has sneeked into the Beverly Hills Hotel and taken up residence in the bathroom (last stall on the end) and the broom closet. She has to switch it up when they clean. When it's super quiet in the wee, wee hours of the morning she slips into mommy's personal booth and pretends.

I thank her fans who have believed in @kimrichards11 through her journey and you will not be let down.

I wouldn't do this for Kim but would also do it for my family and friends. And if I wanted to I could say a lot of things about others that I know for a fact but a lot of people would be hurt. I just believe in love, living your life as you wish as long as you don't hurt others. Photographs of others, that would ruin families, voice mails, paperwork. But since so many people trust in me as a gentleman I would ask them if I could say it first. Then people can judge their perfect lives. Also I will mentioned the name who has been selling and telling these false stories I have it on tape."

They might if she was not too jacked up on drugs/booze when she went in or if it is a dual facility that treats Psych problems as well or if they did it to settle her down and try to keep her from leaving. Kim may not be in rehab but in a Psych facility, ROL kept using the term "Treatment Facility" and not Rehab so they type of "Treatment" she was supposed to be getting is unclear.

Even if she's being treated for psychological issues, she's still a hardcore drug addict, so the rules against a family visit still apply. But it's all such bullshit. Why do so many folks believe these obviously fake stories on ROL? Kim hates rehab, never goes on her own, and has left early each and every time.

Maybe we'll find out something resembling the truth at her court appearance this week.

IMO, she was in some facility but not for treatment. She was there to give her lawyers a way to postpone her court hearing for shoplifting and now that she has it, she is out and about as always. The facility may not have known what Kim and her lawyers were up to though.

Ok now you're speaking my language. I think ROL totally made up the family visit bullshit, not only for the reasons already stated, but because they all seem angry at her and over the drama. But putting that aside, I agree that her court dates are playing a part here. I think she might have to show up for the one this week (re: the Polo Lounge drunken arrest), but even if not, it's the final hearing, so the hammer might come down.

Ok now you're speaking my language. I think ROL totally made up the family visit bullshit, not only for the reasons already stated, but because they all seem angry at her and over the drama. But putting that aside, I agree that her court dates are playing a part here. I think she might have to show up for the one this week (re: the Polo Lounge drunken arrest), but even if not, it's the final hearing, so the hammer might come down.

Her kids may have visited her so that the lawyers could say they were supporting her "Treatment", so I think it happened. This was all a play for time and to make the courts think/believe that she was serious about getting clean/sober, it is all a game to her and nothing more. I have to wonder if this court/prosecutor will call her out on the fact that she left rehab early and then went on another binge and was caught/arrested for shoplifting. At some point, the prosecutor in 1 of these cases needs to point out her game to the Judge and then they need to come down on her hard, as hard as they can legally.

Monty posted this on his IG, but took it down a little while later.  

 

And tomorrow be prepared to read my post," "I've found out a lot of stuff and I'm not afraid to say how I feel, the truth will started [sic] getting out about every situation in the last 5 years. I thank her fans who have believed in @kimrichards11 through her journey and you will not be let down. Isn't that what friends are for, I had to find out the truth first because I wouldn't want to lie and finally I know through some of this investigating work from another friends all the details and all the people who have been selling these false story's 5 percent truth rest lies. I wouldn't do this for Kim but would also do it for my family and friends. And if I wanted to I could say a lot of things about others that I know for a fact but a lot of people would be hurt. I just believe in love, living your life as you wish as long as you don't hurt others. Photographs of others, that would ruin families, voice mails, paperwork. But since so many people trust in me as a gentleman I would ask them if I could say it first. Then people can judge their perfect lives. Also I will mentioned the name who has been selling and telling these false stories I have it on tape."

Poor Brooke. That sounds very much like Monty's in a bad way, and Kim is getting him all wound up. "Then people can judge their perfect lives." is definitely a Kim Richards-backed-into-a-corner kind of threat. You'd think a girl like Brooke would have the world on a silver platter, but these are her parents, and some iteration of this drama has more or less been her life for who knows how long.
