Kim Richards News: Returning To 'RHOBH' Full Time Or Fired? [VIDEO]
Kim Richards returned to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills last month for a guest-starring appearance, but when it comes to a full-time return for the series' potentially upcoming seventh season, that has yet to be confirmed.
That said, a source recently claimed Kim was hoping Bravo would bring her back.
“Kim made a triumphant return to film the reunion and everyone was very happy to see her,” a source told Radar Online last month. “Her sister Kyle was very emotional and so happy to see Kim received with such an outpouring of love. Kim said she was sober and had been going to AA meetings.”
“It was clear that Kim was using this as the opportunity to make the case for her return next season. She kept saying how good it was to be back and how much she missed everyone,” the source said.
Kim was said to be healthy during the reunion filming, but when it came to Lisa Rinna, things did get heated briefly. According to the source, Kim “lit into Lisa Rinna about comments she had made in the past…and took exception to statements made that Lisa was scared of Kim. It was clear that Kim was hoping to get a reaction from Lisa, but Lisa took the high road and refused to let Kim get the reaction she was clearly hoping for. Lisa apologized to Kim for any pain she caused her, which was the last thing she was expecting."
“Kim just wants to be offered a formal contract to come back because she needs a paycheck. There are bills to pay!” the source added.
A short time later, another Radar Online source claimed both Kim and her sister, Kyle, were in jeopardy of getting the axe, along with new housewife Kathryn Edwards, as Bravo prepares to assemble the possible season eight cast.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season six is currently airing on Tuesdays at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
