Kyle Richards Hints To Kim Richards Return In Season 7 & “Interesting” Shift #RHOBH
Filming for the seventh season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has kicked off — and the first scoop on what’s new for Bravo’s 90210 has been spilled.
E! caught up with veteran Bravolebs, Lisa Vanderpump and Kyle Richards, at the DailyMail.com Summer White Party at Pump, where Kyle spilled a little tea about the upcoming season.
“Each season, someone new seems to come in and shake things up a bit, so we do have a little shift this season and it’s interesting,” Kyle teased.
Will the shift be a positive one? Kyle commented that it’s much too early to tell.
“Well, it’s new. You never know,” she said. “In the beginning, it’s always great, and then later, you’re like, ‘Oh my god, this is a nightmare!’”
Bravo has kept mum about what fresh faces will be joining the franchise, to fill the spots vacated by Yolanda Hadid, and Kathryn Edwards. Kyle hinted that a familiar presence might be making a comeback — her sister, Kim Richards.
“I think she is [returning,]” Kyle said. “I can’t confirm that, but I would like to see her back and I know a lot of people would.”
Kyle believes that staying active on the show is healthy for her older sis, as Kim struggles to maintain her sobriety.
“It gives her purpose and accountability and somewhere to be every day,” Kyle added. “I feel like it was a good thing for my sister.”
Kim appeared briefly on Season 6 — after her substance abuse issues triggered her full-time status to be drastically cut back, after five full seasons on Bravo.
Lisa Vanderpump almost walked away from the reality gig, after an especially brutal sixth season. Bravo promised to highlight her life passions — namely the fight for animal rights and her work with the LGBTQ community, in an intense effort to win back the fan favorite. Vanderpump gave a lukewarm thumbs-up, to her outlook on a new season.
“It’s OK, but there were wounds to heal,” Lisa said.
Fans are behind Vanderpump — but will the return of Kim Richards drag the cast (including the always outspoken Lisa Rinna) backwards into old drama? Would you like to see Kim return?
