Despite longstanding rumors, Kyle Richards is not in charge of who is on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
“I think [people] think that she has the power to get anyone off the show,” Dorit Kemsley claimed during the third and final part of the RHOBH season 15 reunion, which aired on Thursday, May 7.
This statement caused Kathy Hilton to laugh as Dorit, 49, told Andy Cohen that Erika Jayne “thinks” this way. Erika appeared confused at the statement.
“Do you know how many people we would have gotten rid of a long time ago?” Kyle chimed in, earning a laugh from the women. “Andy, you better watch your step.”
Kathy joked that her sister “owns Bravo,” unable to hide her laughter.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Kyle Richards is teasing major drama between her, Erika Jayne and Dorit Kemsley in season 15. Kyle, 56, shared on the Thursday, December 4, episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen that she and Erika, 53, are no longer speaking to Dorit, 49, following an argument during […]
As the conversation continued about Kyle’s involvement in the show, former RHOBH star Camille Grammer’s name came up during Thursday’s reunion.
“Didn’t Camille say that the reason why she was not on the show was because Kyle blackballed her?” Jennifer Tilly asked, laughing.
“Whoever did say that, it’s not true,” Kyle clarified. Dorit added, “I know that, trust me. If she had that power, I would not be here.”
Dorit was referring to the ongoing tension between her and Kyle that started in season 13. The former best friends have grown distant amid their splits from their respective spouses. (Kyle separated from Mauricio Umansky in July 2023, while Dorit and PK Kemsley separated in May 2024.)
Their issues came to a head during this most recent season with a blowout fight in Italy, which Erika was also involved in.
While some Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars have been a part of the Bravo hit since season 1 — looking at you, Kyle Richards — others have proved that diamonds aren’t forever. The sixth installment in the Real Housewives franchise was announced in March 2010 and aired its first season seven months later. At the […]
After Dorit left Kyle and Erika stranded in Italy in an April episode, the trio had words during a cast dinner. Kyle and Erika claimed the entire cast had an issue with Dorit’s lateness but wouldn’t tell her.
“Go down the line and you all speak up,” Erika prompted. “Don’t be cowardly lions.”
Rachel Zoe stood up for Dorit, who is “going through a f*** ton,” something Erika took issue with as she’s about to stand trial.
“My husband went to prison. The f*** are you talking about? I’m going to trial,” Erika told Dorit when asked what she’s been experiencing in her personal life. “Your kids and your divorce are like — let’s not do the pain thing. Like, where we do the pain Olympics.”
During Thursday’s reunion, Erika explained that her biggest issue with Dorit stemmed from an accusation made in Italy. Dorit alleged that Erika only picked a fight to save her fate on RHOBH.
“I was really sad,” Erika told Dorit during the reunion.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15 is now streaming on Peacock.
