Kyle Richards escapes 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' in tears.
Throughout Tuesday's episode, the reality star broke the fourth wall and confessed to the hit Bravo series after her female co-stars put her in the hot seat.
“I can't do this anymore, I really can't,” an emotional Richards, 56, declared. “I'm trying to be in a great place in my life…I'm leaving.”
The Disaster Happened at St. John's Home in Bozoma With Dorit Kemsley, Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, Erica Jayne and Jennifer Tilly in Bozoma A day at home in St. John's.
The two women had been talking and at some point began berating Richards, who sent Dorit's estranged husband Paul “PK” Kemsley in May 2024, the day they publicly announced their separation after nine years of marriage. Several text messages.
Richards felt attacked and decided to read the text message aloud.
“I really like you and PK and your kids and all that. I do know that,” Richards told Dorit, 48, through tears. “I really feel like I did something wrong – sent a text message to PK. So, I said I'm going to learn this as soon as I can, that's all.”
Then she read the text again and it read: “I know you have a lot of friends. I am one of them if you need me. I will never repeat what you have already shared with me and will not repeat .I will continue to send memes and I will not ignore the laughing emoji.”
Some girls asked Richards why she told PK she would “never repeat something,” which the “Halloween” star tried to clarify.
“I'm not implying that it's anything to do with you,” Richards said to Dorit. “I’m sure that’s what you’re thinking. I’m not talking about this. I’m talking about this [the show]well, I can't say because we were filming and [in] manufacturing. ”
The camera then pans to the crew filming the intense scene.
“That's what I fucking said. And now I've made it happen,” Richards continued. “I don't really feel like I've done a thing wrong. I've always cherished you and your loved ones. Well, everyone, I'm done!”
When Dorit and Jayne adopted her, Richards left the conversation and began storming into the home.
“I've accomplished something! I'm not doing this anymore,” she told the two girls. “Everybody has bigger damn problems, but that's all they're damn concerned about.”
Richards, who wore a bathrobe for the spa day, called the whole scene “disgusting.”
“Day after day, is it really going to be like this? Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? Actually, I mean, look at all of us. Our ages and what are we doing?” she said. Said while wiping tears.
“To deal with stupidity like this every day. Honestly everyone has to be ashamed of themselves. Seriously. F–king is ridiculous. I can't keep doing this. I just can't do it.”
Dorit was eventually able to settle Richards down. During their one-on-one conversation, Richards doubled down on the fact that she mentioned manufacturing in her message to PK— no She would “never” tell Dorit what she heard from her estranged ex.
Still, Dorit wasn't entirely convinced by what Richards was promoting and continued to press her to understand the intent of her text's content.
“If you write the question as, 'You realize I would never share something,' that doesn't feel right,” Dorit admits.
“You say, ‘I would never say this on camera.’ You don’t say, ‘I would never repeat something. “In other words, what he shares with you, you would never share with me.”
While Richards and Dorit had been close friends before, they became even more distant after Dorit realized that Richards and PK were chatting frequently – even after their breakup.
Despite this, Richards has previously denied they sent lewd content and defended the “memes” he occasionally shares.
