Inside The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion [Season 6]: Spoilers, Videos & Photos! #RHOBH
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills long awaited reunion kicks off tonight, with Part One of a Bravo three-parter getting the party started.
Viewers can expect the women to plead their cases and fight for the spotlight, as Andy Cohen directs the drama, while trying to keep his smug expression under control. The Munchausen chatter is sure to be rehashed, and Lisa Vanderpump will sit in the hot seat, as Lisa Rinna continues to shirk away from her role in the scandal.
Yolanda is expected to discuss her divorce from David Foster, and Eileen Davidson will probably continue to beat a season long issue, until fans beg for mercy. Rookies Erika and Kathryn will sit on the Bravo couches for the first time. Kathryn will deal with the Faye Resnick/OJ drama.
Where Kyle Richards will land on any given topic, is always a mystery–will she wrap the season as an unbudging fence straddler? Richards admits that facing key issues head on, was difficult. Kyle spilled to The Daily Dish, about the emotional experience.
“This season seems more complex than other seasons to me. There was definitely a divide. There was different groups that you feel, like a clear-cut [division of] these two, these two, these two. The truth is this season, I can honestly say, I really like all of the women,” Kyle said. “That doesn’t mean we have not had our moments, but I do like all of the women. Not everyone can say that and I can’t say that every season. There was just a lot of tears, there was yelling, there’s a walk off. When people start getting up and leaving then you know there’s a problem, you know it’s a crazy one.”
Not surprisingly, Kyle hopes to tackle the Lisa Vanderpump controversy, as well as the drama swirling around Yolanda Hadid, and her cryptic struggle with Lyme disease.
“For me, the Lisa Vanderpump drama was something I really wanted to be able to clear up,” she said. “I think there was a lot of people who misunderstood things and there was a lot of talk in the media about, ‘Oh the women are questioning if Yolanda Hadid had Lyme disease.’ I don’t know how things get so twisted out there, but nobody questioned that, nobody questioned whether Yolanda had Lyme disease or not. I think it was more reading into her exploring what could be contributing to it with all the different procedures she was doing.”
Erika shares about her close relationship with her young adult son, bonding which must have occurred before the age of three, and after his teenage years. She is proud of her police officer son, and claims that he is supportive of her career pastime. Erika gives the ladies a “pat the puss” lesson, as per Andy’s request, but appears uncomfortable, due to some inadvertent Girardi leakage.
Kim Richards will make a reunion appearance.
The drama that has consumed the show this season, revolves around who created and fed the Munchausen rumor, involving Yolanda Hadid. Yolanda’s cryptic battle with Lyme disease invited the chatter, but Lisa Rinna recently accused Lisa Vanderpump of being the mastermind of the on-camera cast gossip. Rinna was the one who uttered the “M” word, but now labels herself as simply a pawn in Lisa’s end-game, crafted to slander Yolanda.
In the just released clip, Rinna accuses Lisa of having polluted motives from the start. Rinna claims that during her birthday dinner, shown at the beginning of the season, her husband, Harry Hamlin, defended Yolanda, after Ken noted her peaked appearance. Yolanda later received criticism from fans, who accused her of dragging in makeup-free, for attention. Rinna drops the accusatory bomb, while Yolanda dabs away a few quasi-tears.
“Harry said ‘You know what, we need to support this woman whether she’s sick or not, and that’s that,'” Rinna claims, before dropping the bomb on LVP. “And you went, ‘There goes our f–king story line!'”
Rinna isn’t finished. She dramatically whips out phone records to prove that she and Lisa had scandalously chatted on the phone, more often than Lisa was admitting. GASP!! The hotheaded drama queen, hoping to prove her case, triggered the first walkout of the reunion, with Yolanda making a dramatic exit. Bravo should dock this loon’s reunion pay.
Be sure to see how the drama unfolds on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Part One TONIGHT, April 19 at 9 p.m.ET on Bravo.
