Kim Richards has been arrested and charged with trespass, resisting arrest, battery on a police officer and public drunk. I am running later for a doctor’s appointment so I am just going to throw up the E! report I was just emailed.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was arrested early Thursday morning at the Beverly Hills Hotel, E! News confirms.
According to officials, the Beverly Hills Police were called around 1:30 a.m. by security in response to a reported fight, where Richards was described as belligerent with slurred speech and wreaking of a strong odor of alcohol.
Per police, Richards was initially in the bathroom and refused to come out, but she was eventually brought to the Beverly Hills Police Station for booking. She is currently in the process of being released.
I have got to run out the door. Please update me in comments.
UPDATED! KIm was arrested at 2:04 am. She was officially booked at 9:12. Bail was set at $20,000. There were no fines set yet, that will happen when she goes to court. She was released at 10:45. Her next court date was set for 05/18/2015 at 08:30 a.m. She was in custody for nearly nine hours. All her charges were misdemeanors. $20K seems like a high bond for misdemeanor charges!
No mug shot has been released yet.
We all knew that was coming… it was just a matter of when!
Just sucks to be shown to be a lair for all to see. I think Kim is ridiculous but how embarrassing for her.
** LIAR **
Brain fart.
Wow, I have been off the computer for a few hours and as soon as I got on facebook, Kim Richards, arrested for drunken driving and assaulting an officer was trending. I came to tell T and there are already over 200 comments.
Not much new to add to these comments but I am not surprised that an addict relapsed..again. As long as she refuses to accept her disease she will continue to live a miserable life. I doubt that Brandi was with her because I’ve read that they are not close friends off camera. They were merely each other’s story-lines this season. I don’t like Kim but I have to hope that she gets help. Obviously she has become her disease and no one deserves that. I also hope that Bravo fires her for her sake, the sake of her family and for the viewers who have to watch this train wreck as it circles the drain. Watching an addict deteriorate is not entertainment in my opinion and I don’t plan on watching this show if she continues to be a part of it. On the upside, I get my “real” news on here so thanks again, Tamara for keeping all of us up to date. You don’t sensationalize and I appreciate that. As much as I disliked Kim’s behavior during the recent season this makes me feel sad.
I really hope her BFF forever Brandi is there to bail her out. Or St. Kathy, the only sister she values.
I heard from a friend who works at the BH hotel that she was there with BRANDI and some friends but they left when she went to the bathroom and the police were called.
Oh interesting. I thought she was probably partying with Brandi.
Brandi made a clean get away. How convenient.
Wow! So Brandi was there and probably drinking with her, I’m
guessing? And then Brandi ditches her while she is probably melting down in the bathroom.
That is very interesting… Brandi, the good friend who is so concerned about Kim, ya know.
I wonder if there will be photos? I imagine that if there are it will be shut down, and we will never see them. Unless someone with a phone took a video and is shopping around for the best offer. If Brandi was with her, I think this will be the final nail in Brandy’s Real Housewives coffin. I knew Kim was using something again, but to get drunk out in public like that. Buy a bottle and take it home, if you are trying to hide it. I know I have said this before – This will be Lindsay Lohan in 20 years. I hope she gets the help she needs or I’m afraid she’ll end up dead. Oh, I am actually feeling bad for her! Such a mess
So Brandi (allegedly…I seem to use that word a lot) ditched her. So much for that ‘ride or die’ bullshit.
WOW!
Interesting…Brandi has stated that she wasn’t there. hmmm
I don’t think she was. I believe she was there alone and bothering the other patrons.

events?????
Bullshit. Brandi was home celebrating her 8 year old son’s birthday.
As soon as the boys go to bed, Brandi goes out. But not to the Polo Lounge, she goes to the bar at HoJos in WeHo.

I’ll believe Brandi was there when I see it. On a scale of 1-10 I strongly dislike Brandi, but I seriously doubt she was there. I hope this is the end of the road for Kim on RHOBH, but maybe they will find a camera friendly rehab and make it a storyline.
Oh come on, Kia, there is so many stories. A pool boy?
Just my opinion but I don’t believe Kim and Brandi hang out that much outside of filming. Who knows? Their friendship is pretty odd. They have basically nothing in common except getting fucked up & hating people. Sounds exhausting.
Also how do these women drink like this? I am over 30 and if I drink too much I feel like hell for days! Oh but I actually take care of my children which is extremely hard with a hang over. Not worth it to me so I rarely drink.
Brandi says, “Kim who? I’ve got Unfiltered Urine to sell! Buy two one get one free!
Bwahahahahaha !
Brandi’s wine comes with tampons and Xanax.
TMZ just reported that she was “charged with trespass, resisting arrest, battery on a police officer and drunk in public.”
Too bad celebs get treated with kid gloves around hollywood/ beverly hills. Since she wasnt driving I doubt they gave her a breathalyzer or took her blood for bac. It may be another “mystery”
Oh, well, if she was 100% confirmed, no getting out of it drinking, then I’m sure it will be “the first drink I’ve had in three years”. Or Kyle forced her to drink.
Yeah, kid gloves, but $20,000 bail is a lot, isn’t it?
Oh, wait, “battery on a police officer” probably carries a high bail.
“She was issued a citation for a misdemeanor and later released.”
She was hiding in the bathroom! Priceless.
Kim definitely has an affinity for bathrooms.
Probably praying next to the trash can!
I think “drunk in public” pretty well takes care of that.
This won’t be Kim’s fault either, like nothing else ever is. She’ll claim she had a bad reaction to some medicine she took or that there was alcohol in some food sauce she ate.
Sounds like she went off the deep after the lawsuit..
Or, it’s all the ladies from RHOBH fault for bringing it up and causing her to fall off the wagon.
That’s what I’m expecting. It’s Kyle or Rinna’s fault for causing her stress at the reunion.
Exactly my thoughts. She will blame Kyle and Rinna because of all the stress of questioning her sobriety and the incident with Kingsley. And don’t forget taking care of Monty. No way will she admit she’s been using all along. Oh, and what does her bestie have to say now? I’m sure Brandi was well aware Kim was off the wagon.
Someone on twitter is already placing the blame on Kyle, LVP, Rinna, and Eileen.
Well, the girls did tell her to stop isolating herself…
Love your 1 liners. ツ
that reunion was filmed long ago; and it certainly looked like she was on
something then. surprised no one called her out then.
no one is that angry, rude, and screaming if not on something.
shame on bravo. but now they have a reason to not have her back.
you know if brandi was there she took off, so bravo would not see her.
hope someone was filming w/camera. or there is a camera in the
restaurant, to cover their butts, in case of suing.
Yea just like her “good friend” BRANDI used the excuse “she has to drink when she around all the RHOBH ladies” it’s all their fault she drinks!!!
Sure, right, that was it. If her sobriety was so strong, NO way would or could others merely talking about her bona-fide bizarre behavior after supposedly taking a pain med NOT prescribed to her, “make her drink.” I BEG the powers that be at RHOBH to please FIRE this horrible, lying & above all bitter woman. She is obviously still SO resentful & again, bitter, that it was her work as a child actress (a minor C list actress) that supported her family or so she claims. Take that issue up with your parents, live or dead; not your innocent sister, Kyle. Kim’s just a horrid, unredeemable “person.”
With all due respect, I don’t agree. She reeked of liquor because someone SPILLED their drink on her. Duh. And why the hell is she at the Polo Lounge in BH? Surely there are low key bars not on the 30 mile zone?
It really surprises me that she was out drinking in a bar alone. Doesn’t she live alone? Why not pick up a bottle and drink in the privacy of your own him if you are trying to hide your drinking? And if you MUST go to a bar, The Polo Lounge? Seriously? There is paparazzi there all the time? Are there no photos yet? I want to see the mugshot!
And thanks for keeping me updated. I’m finally home my back to back doctor visits went well and were uneventful. The right to the offices took about thirty minutes. The ride home OTOH took about an hour and 20 minutes. Rain. Rush hour. Blah.

Yeah I don’t understand what she was doing there either. It might explain why she was hiding in the bathroom though.
Maybe somewhere in her mind she knew she’d be seen, busted or called out by going to the bar. It was her way of seeking help? Or, maybe she’s an idiot.
Oh, yeah, Jess, we ALL know it wasn’t her fault!
I wonder if her excuse (2 herself) was the overwhelmingly negative reaction she received after the reunion aired. I’m sure she’ll place some blame on Kyle cause, “She didn’t have her back”. She loves to make Kyle feel guilty. From bloggers to people posting on blogs, it’s clear viewers are sick of her nasty behavior and no longer feel any sympathy towards her.
As a person in recovery, I think about how we often laugh in meetings at the lousy excuses we used to justify our drinking -” I hard a hard day, it’s raining, it’s sunny, someone stole my newspaper off the drive”….I don’t know if Kim is capable of the rigorous honesty needed to stay sober. It’s a tremendous amount of work and there’s no breaks-24/7 welcome to reality. Can the former Disney Star handle reality?
What was she doing at the Beverly Hills Hotel anyway? I wonder what the rest of the ladies are thinking now.
She was in the Polo lounge. You know brandi’s favorite bar.
Well then that confirms it! Brandi threw a drink in her face!
Yes, Brandi did state that she liked to go there to pick up men, in her book.
And which book is that?
Yes, and the entire drink landed in her mouth and happened to go down her throat. Happens all the time.
😉
They’re probably thinking that intervention wasn’t such a terrible idea after all.
I think Kim wanted to be out and about, maybe meet some men or just get her party on with Brandi and her crew. She gave into temptation to doing what ever Brandi does. Thats why everyone thought Brandi was the worst choice of friend for an alcoholic that trying to stay sober. It looks like theyre missing all the fun that drinking gave them. Kim may have been buzzed allready before she got there and decided to be onery and go there.
So at 1:30 a.m. , who is taking care of her beloved Monty? Or did she simply lock him in the laundry room with Kingsley?
That’s what I think. She was already drinking and became brave and decided to go out.
On another 3 letter website the last line says, “kim said she had only taken a pain pill but had not broken her sobriety.” Zomg
Nevermind. They have rewritten it to say, “earlier in the season kim took a pain pill..”
I bet someone spilled a drink on her!
Karma comes so fast these days.
Ive noticed that too lately. What may have taken years before seems to happen(karma ass kick) in only a few months or days even. Its like karma is on overnight delivery or something.
It’s, like, cosmic man. I’m from Southern California so I can talk like a valley girl/hippy. :0)
In all seriousness, for Kim’s health and safety, getting arrested was probably the very best thing for her. There’s no better wake up call than when karma pimp slaps you right across the face.
I herd this reported on the news here, I live in Los Angeles, when I stopped off at home in between my jobzzz around 1pm, (ha ha! like Phaedra). I immediately though: “I wonder what our Tamara has to say about this?”
So true. I’ve noticed that myself. With that in mind, I better behave myself.
Yes, Minky, I must thank you (and Phaedra) for being sure to mention you have multiple jobzzz. But you are slacking on mentioning it repeatedly in every conversation. We might forget. Phaedra would never let us forget, no no!
😉
Her mouth fell on a bottle of Monty’s pills and someone forced her to drink alcohol to keep her from chocking.
Lolol!
Lol best line ever except for TT of course
HaHaHa!!
Yes!
i wonder if her sober coach, Brandi, was with her.
☺
I wonder did Brandi post her bail lol
Yeah, that’s likely.
She probably hooked up with a bail bondsman, though. (Not to get Kim bailed out. Just because .. Brandi.)
Wow, excuse me while I laugh but did she just say at least arena probably had a record for battery? this is the fastest I have ever seen karma do its job.
Please excuse my typos. My phone is acting up.
but Least Arena is hysterical LOLOL!
Autocorrect can be a bitch with a diabolical sense of humor.
If only she’d get a little scratch nibble from a rabid dog.
You’re right – holy shit, that was fast! 2 days after the reunion airs – karma bites her in the ass!
LMAOOOOOOOOOO I agree! Karma must have been watching the third part of the Reunion a d decided to take Kim down a peg or two. Maybe Kim can just bla,e that darn Karma bitch! “She has always had it out for me! KARMA STOLE MY HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!1!!”
Good one, unholyspork. Karma stole my house!!!!! Hysterical!
Her niece and the family friend getting bit, her saying Lisa R has a record for batter, Kim not having any sympathy for Lisa R’s sister dying of addiction, calling Eileen a beast, and most of all treating her sister Kyle like shit for years for who has done her best to financially support and protect her image – all in all karma for sure came back hard.
Oh Coco and Sick Of! Karma was telling Kim: “Girl bye!”
Bwahahahaha! Fuckin house.
I was thinking the same exact thing about what she said about L Rinna
To quote Marion Barry, former Mayor of DC:
“Bitch set me up!”
LOLOLOLOL!
No you didn’t!
[email protected] sick of “reality” TV
She’s going to find a way to blame Kyle.
And the egg beater herself Lisa R. Season 6 will be hot mess.
That damn eggbeater Lisa & beast Eileen! ☺
Thank God! Now we can stop hearing about her 3 years sobriety! But knowing her she won’t count this slip up either. And she’ll manage to make everyone apologize to her including the cop! Hope they get rid of her!
After watching her all season, it’s clear she meant to say “my 3 days sober”.
She should meet Porsha. Porsha is also very good at being completely in the wrong, yet the others end up apologizing to her.
How?! How can she blame someone who wasn’t there?! I hope Brandi is very afraid now.
You already know.
Not possible. She’s totally sober you guys. Obviously.
It’s NOT a relapse in sobriety because she had a REASON for drinking the bottle of scotch. allegedly.
LOL!!!!! Best response.
Supposedly spent the evening drinking vodka tonics. Gotta drink those clear liquors ya know! Less calories 😉
And remember you have to see her intoxicated numerous times before you call her out on it. She didnt give the number but I bet its alot!
Damn, so many rules, I don’t think the cops or the court are even allowed to say she was drinking.
It is also being reported that she kicked a police officer while being taken into custody. Think about that for a minute. She kicked a cop.
Is that worse than Zsa Zsa Gabor slapping a cop? (Did I just date myself?)
I remember the Zsa Zsa slap as well, so we must be in the same age range. The Zsa Zsa slap was an older lady responding to a situation in a way ladies of a certain age and breeding would respond. “Don’t speak to me like that,” then *slap.* Kim must have been so completely out of her mind that she was being dragged out by the cops with her hands in handcuffs and she using her legs to fight them off.
I remember that too!
I remember that! Poor Zsa Zsa…
Zsa Zsa was a boss. This bitch is a Beverly Hillbilly. Kim’s a fucking idiot. I said it before and I’ll say it again. Entitled! Spoilt, fucking entitled farm animal. I don’t wish truly horrible things for her, but still. This probably should’ve happened a long time ago.
Please don’t compare the Gabors to the Richards. Sigh.
Zsa Zsa and the Richards sister are related.
Just sayin’
I’m with Minky and Victoria on this one.
No no no, the two don’t even exist in the same universe.
Kim asked LisaR if she had a record for battery… we don’t know about her you do.
Had she been black she’d be shot to death. Out of fear for the officers life.
Or Tazed, unfortunately…I hope, hope, hope that the events over the past year will cause a major reassessment of police behavior.
Can we not ruin this ?bittersweet? moment with real, pressing issues just yet? Please?
I think of Kyle asking last week that we be kind to her sister on social media. See, Brandi, that’s called love.
I have to admit Kyle impressed me with that one.
That’s it, Bravo needs to let her go, she is a mess. Do you think Bravo is sleezy enought to continue parading this very troubled woman? If they do, I am out totakky, same does for Teresa(the felon)
It’s Bravo, we’re talking about! Of course they will. Season (whatever it will be): ‘Kim, The Redemption’
We already had a Kim, The Redemption season. Or was it two?
They kept Taylor after the Russell tragedy. This is kid’s stuff in comparison. At least as far as Bravo is concerned.
Oh my, these forums are good for the soul. I have laughed all day at poster comments.
That just shut down the forum for me. I can go to bed with a smile on my face.
Yes, I believe Bravo is sleezy enough.
You really think Bravo is letting her go now?? HELL NO. This is what they love controversy. This will only make Kim’s hate for Kyle and LisaR rise for season 6.
So tired of Bravo protecting Kim.
During the reunion, Brandi’s conversation with Lisa R. was never mentioned except for the intervention comment that Brandi denied. In fact, its what was said before by Brandi that led Lisa R. to suggest an intervention. Remember she said that she’s wearing a patch which is very addictive, and that she’s in really bad shape, and very fragile to mention anything to her. We know what that means.
If it was mentioned during the reunion, it was edited out to protect Kim, and make Lisa R. look like a stirrer, or egg beater. This is very sad and makes me mad. That’s what happens when Kim wont talk about what’s really going on. Next will be Kingsley hurting someone else real soon.
Lisa actually said, “it’s NOT like we can do an intervention.”
I just hope that Kim isn’t on next year. It’s been rough enough watching Brandi abuse and bully people. Now with Kim doing the same thing to Kyle and Lisa Rinna, it’s getting very very old and harder to watch.
Kingsley actually is very well behaved. He’s just been struggling with his sobriety. (He’s an angry drunk.)
Mounting lawsuits may be the only thing that will make them think twice.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Kim sued Bravo…someone has to take the blame for her relapse…
Yes. This sound exactly like the kind of ass-hat move Kim would do.
I agree, but do you really think Bravo will let her go? My first thought was when will Andy be doing his special One on One episode letting her explain how Lisa Rinna “threw a glass of wine at her mouth” or how she took a pill of Kingsley’s for her “100% pain” that she was in. Christ on a bike, this woman!!!!
Andy’s probably doing cartwheels.
It wouldn’t surprise me if Bravo demanded she go to rehab and filmed it for a six week mini series.
She’d lie her way through that shit too.
Annnnnnnnnnd……
…….KIM HAS A STORYLINE FOR AT LEAST ONE MORE SEASON!
Darn.
Oh MY. You are on fire today.
So sad to see someone spiral down over and over again. I just hope Lisa Rinna and the rest of the cast have the good sense to not start tweeting “I told you so.” Not the time for that. Addiction sucks. Even sober, Kim’s not a nice person. This puts her back at square one. She’ll be checking into rehab soon I’m sure. Just hope she can get her act together.
On the bright side, the timing works well for next season…she can be out of rehab, truly sober and mending relationships.
And going to court with a clear head!
Right?
Are you trying to harsh my buzz? She can’t accept help, because the truth would probably tear her apart. And I’m sick of her acting!
You really think she’s gonna own it this time? I dont. This will be someone else’s fault and not a relapse in her eyes.
Eileen has already tweeted her “sympathies”. Um, yep.sure.
I wish none of them would tweet ANYTHING about her. Just go on “radio silence” just to see what happens. If you don’t feed the beast (by going on twitter, fb, instagram etc) that doesn’t give them anything to work with as far as inciting more gossip. I don’t agree with anything Kim does, and I do thinks she needs to go away. But she ain’t going anywhere, and Bravo don’t care enough about her to take her off, so the only thing that hasn’t been tried is totally ignoring her. Just a thought.
I agree eg, I wish they would all just be quiet, and like you said, don’t feed the beast. Let the girl go her own way, don’t acknowledge her, and be done with it.
Well I guess that is better than Rinna tweeting that “laugh. Laugh all damn day” or something similar.
Pura, that tweet of Lisa Rinna was out there earlier in the morning, way before the news about Kim broke. So nobody had any problems but Kim; now everybody has a problem with hate tweets and name calling. Smh
Then why did Rinna delete it? Her pattern is to delete tweets that she later feels ashamed of. Bingo!
Maybe because people don’t understand how Twitter works and that it was posted prior to the incident? And so people like you wouldn’t make something out of it that it wasn’t?

Come on, Puravida, so you are actually saying Rinna is psychic?
Thanks TT
That was reckless reporting from another site that she posted that right after rather then HOURS BEFORE. Of course now my comment is waiting moderation from that site because I called them out of their bullshit. Jesus..it’s a fucked up situation as is..no need to sensationalize it by throwing another cast mem. under the bus.
I actually thought this was a JOKE! I just finished watching the video montage of 36 clips Bravo put up of Kim dating back to season 1. It’s pretty clear she’s never been sober. Like every thing else she says – it was a BIG fat lie!
Agreed in regards to her never being sober. I have to go watch that.
Wow, they don’t waste any time, do they?
That explains why she looked like Kyle’s mother at the reunion. Seriously, Kim looked at least ten years old than Kyle. Hard living.
Yep, I thought that too.
Kim is somewhere blaming Kyle and Lisa R like no one’s business. She was never sober anyhow! For those that thought that – EggYolks!
I’m not surprised at all. Kim will blame Kyle for this.
This is what happens when you pick the wrong friends when you are in recovery. Brandi is the worse possible friend for someone who needs to stop using alcohol and drugs.
Come on, kat, this is 100% on Kim Richards. She knows the cold hard facts of sobriety: 90 meetings in 90 days, change your “places”, and change your “faces”. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.
Well, and actually BE sober. And tell the truth.
holy shitballs, that was fast as hell. she is a nasty one when threatened with exposure and she was totally lost her fucking mind. i cannot stand kyle, and have always felt badly for kim but she is whacked.
Yea but I don’t want to see it. Kim losing her mind is not entertaining. Neither is watching Kyle and Kim act out their pain and loathing on TV. I just wish they would quietly go away.
Watching Kim get angry is scary. It’s like a 5 year-old on a temper tantrum with PMS who’s also been tippin’ em’ back. No!
Bravo won’t let Kim loose unless she does something violent to a cast member. That is about the only thing that gets someone fired from the show. Porshe comes to mind, but even she was just benched, not kicked off the show for good. And, mommy/sister Kathie didn’t do much tough love with her own kids, so I doubt she’ll be frog marching Kim to Rehab.
I feel very sorry for Kim. She’s very, very sick and needs a lot of help. Someone suggested she’s more than just an addict/alcoholic; that she may be bipolar and have deeper issues and medicates herself because she’s so messed up inside.
Does anyone know if child actors have more emotional troubles because acting during the formative years prevents a person from being their true selves?
It shows on Kyle as well. She is out of touch with real feelings and overacts or overreacts because that’s quite possibly what she thinks is “normal.” Kyle is IMO histrionic in as many ways as Kim sometimes.
I sincerely hope she gets help and stays sober, even though I don’t like her.
Once an alcoholic, always an alcoholic and doing a reality show is not good for Kim. Some people are recovering alcoholic. When you come out of rehab they usually have you find an easy job, nothing stressful that’s going to push you over the edge. Kim doesn’t think she has a problem and you can’t get the help you need until you can admit that you have a problem. If she did, it might pop the veins on her Botox temples/forehead.
“I am not struggling with my sobriety…”
No…I’ve surrendered my sobriety. End of struggle.
Remember on Seinfeld, Jerry’s friend in recovery was scooping ice cream cones. One day a kid stresses him out and he went head first into the case. “Where’s the damn Rum Raisin?”:)
I love that scene! The ice cream guy is James Spader! Poor George and his melon head
the same james spader who is now RED on blacklist? unbelievable
I just rewound and listened again at high volume. She said Kyle didn’t give her any antibiotics for two days. I guess that’s what “happened” after she got home, and what Kim was “hiding” and threatening to reveal. Kim is so delusional….it’s hard to watch knowing what has happened.
And yes please to the blogs!!
Wow I don’t know how that post ended up here!
Katek – yes THAT James Spader. He was so cute back then!
Exactly. For her to say she wasn’t struggling and has never struggled with her sobriety showed she never was sober. A sober addict struggles. Some days, weeks and months are easier than others but it will always be a struggle until their last breath. You are always recovering, you are never recovered.
I think its easy money for former celebs compared to other gigs that dont pay near as well and demand more of them.Also probably feeds into their desire and missing of the fame they once had. Doesnt seem to be a shortage of them that want a reality show. Kim was a mess way before this show, so I dont think its the shows fault. The show may have actually kept her a bit more on her toes, with the exposure. Anyway ultimately its Kim who has to do what it takes to be healthy.
She kicks a police officer and is released with a citation. So happy justice was served.
I argued once with a police officer, when I was fighting with someone out on my own front yard who came up and started the fight. The cops were called and all I said was “well, what happened was….” and the officer said I had a smart look on my face. I got cuffed and taken to jail for about six hours before I was bailed out and then charged dropped.
Of course, a few years later twelve members of the police force were relieved of duty with charged of false arrest and drug dealing.
I can only imagine what they would have done to me, and I’m a white middle aged woman too, if I’d dared to kick them.
@Nancy ….
Some Officers today remind of the kids who got their milk money taken at school. Now they are getting even.
No! The police officer walked into her out stretched foot.. It’s his fault!
Sorry that post was for @Spencer.
Haha yes, and it was Kyle who sent him in her direction in the first place. Kyle’s fault.
I’m thinking this was a very major scene for The Polo Lounge to call the PD. Normally that is the last choice a well known bar would do. Most prefer to handle everything in house.
Camera’s inside/outside, anyone?
I was thinking there has to be security camera footage at a high-profile establishment like that hotel.
I so hope some security camera footage gets leaked!
She locked herself in the bathroom and the cops had to drag her out. How crazy is that, with all the RHOBH episodes where she was holed up in a bathroom?
That’s where addicts do their drugs when out.
I just watched a clip of Kim complaining about her underwear riding up. She was in the process of hiking her skirt & digging it out when Lisa V. gently shut the bathroom door to give her privacy. Needless to say Kim flipped “How dare you”! Kim’s so fucked up she doesn’t know who her true friends are / aren’t.
Bravo put up a 36 clip video montage of Kim’s crazy antics within the last 24 hours. I’m curious if it was put up before or after this latest news?! If before – what a strange coincidence! If after – it reiterates what someone wrote earlier on the Kingsley blog & Bravo’s clearly pissed for her dragging them into the lawsuit.
I thought about that as well. Going for the privacy of a bathroom every time she has problems seems like another way to deny the problem. She is a cowardly, mean, manulative little brat. I am out of sympathy for her.
She is another woman that kept marrying rich or had rich boyfriends. What did they see in her, none lasted, one was a criminal that was murdered.
@Addie2U – I believe that was me what wrote that comment. Hell hath no fury like a Bravo scorned. They have a reason behind every action over there. I’m not an insider, but just real good at putting 2 and 2 together. Those production folks and Andy are so dang conniving and so good at making it look like the last thing they’re doing is throwing shade, that we simply assume that it’s possible for a character to be completely awful one season, and totally sweet as pie the next. Uh uh, no.
I’m utterly convinced that Nene, Kim Richards, Brandi, Jill, Aviva and others were portrayed as horrid individuals not just because they probably are, but also because the Bravo staff is vengeful. The point of these shows is to express a very specific kind of misogyny. I almost wanna do a research paper about it.
Minky: isn’t it possible that women can be incredibly ugly and unsympathetic to each other, with no regard for one’s past struggles, family environment, previous losses (e.g., deaths of loved ones), divorces, betrayals etc.? Would you not agree that women, more often than men, treat other women like shit with little or no empathy or understanding? Case in point: many of these comments. Why is it Bravo’s fault for airing the worst in human nature if we, as women, CHOOSE to consume it ravenously, even when it depicts our gender at its worst?
Watching TV or a movie requires a suspension of disbelief. You realize on some level mentally that it’s mostly show. It’s a reality show, but there’s still a script, or at least a story line. That’s what’s so sad about people like Kim. It’s not funny because it’s real. We’re commenting on a SHOW that we know, recognize and consume as a show. If this happened to our friends, families, colleagues, we’d probably keep our filthy mouths shut.
Men are awful too. They crush each other in business and their social lives all the damn time. They gossip and talk shit and sabotage more than women and they’re better at it.
I was once having a chat with a gay male friend. I said to him: “you’re so lucky to be gay. because you’re a man and you date men, so you know how a man thinks and you don’t play games with one another.” He corrected me very quickly and said: “Oh hell no! Men play emotional and mental games several times much more than women. And more deep, weird games. And then, they play more games on top of those initial games, to cover up the fact that they were ever playing games in the first place.”
So, you see, a man’s life if all games. Football, baseball, basketball, golf, poker, etc. They’re much better at psyching out their opponents than women are. They know all about “mind over matter”. I don’t hate women. I hate stupidity, whether male or female in origin. When I watch the Wives I know I’m watching a show. I might as well be watching a cage fight. Every now and again I ask myself who’s putting on the show? And what game is he playing?
Agreed. No bar wants the police/EMS on the premises. It interferes with atmosphere and scares clientele away.
What purva said.
I think so too. I know sometimes there are injustices and cops dont allways behave well,but at this place I doubt they call the cops on a woman very easily or lightly.. if you were normal youd leave when they asked you to. I hope theres cameras to show what she was up to so theres no dispute. Must be witnesses too that would be interesting to talk to.
Someone brought out a cell phone they’re just waiting for the right price.
Did this happen the same night of the reunion? What’s with her commadeering bathrooms all the time?
No…early this am
I read this morning/Thursday 1:30 am. Though I’m sure Kim will blame Kyle for this as well.
Hahaha! It’s Kyle’s fault!
Why would she go somewhere and drink in public where someone could blab on her? She must have been already loaded when she got there. . .arriving in a chauffer-driven limo, of course. I’m sure she would never drink and drive.
I think the Polo Lounge is members only.
It’s open to everyone….
It’s not.

Sorry TT, Polo Lounge is not members only. Anyone can go.
I realize that. It was a commenter who thought it was private. It’s anything but and often covered with paparazzi. I’m shocked we haven’t seen any pictures yet.

I didn’t want to ruffle any feathers. But I have been to the BH Polo Lounge three times. And I wasn’t with any members. However, it was at least ten years ago, so I thought perhaps the rules have been changed?
why go somewhere public? you have to think like a narcissist. she can
do whatever she wants, to whoever she wants. and there are no
boundaries she will not cross. she took over the reunion, telling people
to shut up. asked Eileen did I apologize to you? Eileen says no; and
she turns and says I did, and then dismisses Eileen w/ a turn of her head.
she is not just an alcoholic, she has a mental illness as well, and is
truly dangerous to herself and others.
Why? Obviously, this bitter woman thinks SHE is above others blabbing on her and even if she acts crazier than 100 loons, and should an eye witness have video, she will still deny it. She will say who do you believe, me or your lying eyes? She is also a MEAN drunk. Kim had illegally take someone else’s pain medicine. Kim can act ANY bad way she wants to & should others dare to hold her accountable for her bad behavior, she totally FABRICATES A LIE to tell others about those holding her accountable, as she tried to do to Harry Hamlin. Some people, the addiction temporarily changes their personalities, but Kim, her addiction let’s the mean beast she is on the inside really come out, her addiction shows her true mean person self.
Remember Kyle saying to Kim “You want to have a honest conversation? Right here?” I thought she was talking about Kinsley, now however . . .
Right. Then Kim said in that truly scary voice. “What did I tell you? What did I tell you?” Like she was referring to a prior conversation of if Kyle brought up her drinking or using on camera she would attack Kyle.
Good observation
Holy shit! Well how’s that for timing? The reunion aired a mere three days ago.
I will be interested to see if we find out the results of a blood test. They will take a blood test, won’t they? To determine if there are drugs in her system as well? How does that work?
I know, huh? I wonder if she would be in trouble if they found drugs in her blood that were not prescribed to her?
She wasn’t driving, so I don’t think they would test her.
Can anyone really be surprised? She relapsed on the show, no matter what she says it was a relapse. And I am sure she will state it was Kyle’s fault for bringing up issues that she didn’t want to talk about, but really? Everyone knew about Kingsley and the house and how you and Kyle were on and off. Being on Bravo is not being in rehab, get off the show and into real rehab.
Read she kicked a cop at the police station.
ADMIN EDIT: PLEASE STOP POSTING WHAT YOU BELEIVE TO BE MEDICAL INFORMATION ON PEOPLE RELATED TO REALITY SHOW PARTICIPANTS. THESE PEOPLE DID NOT SIGN UP TO HAVE THEIR PERSONAL MEDICAL RECORDS POSTED ALL OVER THE INTERNET.
She never been recovering except when she’s in rehab. She picked Brandi as a friend because Brandi has the same problem. Denial!
Karma’s a bitch, and so is Kim. It’s really tough to pity someone who acts so vile, bitter and mean. I bet Lisa Rinna’s doing her happy dance.
It’s hard to be happy for an addict’s downfall, but as they always tell us co-dependents, they’ve got to hit rock bottom before anything will change, if then. I’d say, this is the closest she’s come to rock bottom . . . drunk and disorderly to the point of being removed by the police in handcuffs and then assault on a police officer. Definitely not cute or easy to explain, no matter what mother’s little helper you may have accidentally ingested following your vodka mouthwash.
LisaR tweeted that she had heard of the incident and it made her sad, she wishes the family well.
That was after her “laugh, laugh all day” tweet
Wasn’t that “laugh” tweet from Lisa R BEFORE news broke about Kim? Someone should verify the time line — doesn’t seem like Lisa…
Yes, because Lisa Rinna spends her days monitoring to see what Kim Richards is doing. She posts those sorts of “don’t worry, be happy” tweets all the time. Stop making such judgmental assumptions.

Her twitter feed says she deleted that comment after she heard the news so no one would mistake her intent.
Yeah, I’m sure Lisa Rinna – whose own sister and brothers-in-law died of alcohol/drug related complications – is dancing that a mentally ill alcoholic relapsed and was put in jail.
You’re a real winner.
Maybe the public humiliation will embarrass her to the point that this becomes her rock bottom. She really values keeping up appearances and this is a major humiliation. It might save her life.
I honestly believe the only reason she went to rehab last time was just to shut everyone up & I believe she’ll do the same thing this time. Kim’s deep in her addiction & needs at least a 90 days stay but with her daughter getting married / her ex dying / & Kingsley to take care of – she’ll only agree to 4, 5, 7, or 8 days!
Lmao!
A 30 day stay would be a joke. She’d barely be out of withdrawal. 90 days minimum would be needed but I don’t see her completing it unless it also has mental health pros addressing her other issues that are readily apparent.
Didn’t she only stay a week the last time? She is a repulsive, hateful woman. So jealous of her sister.
She doesn’t believe that her behavior is wrong. No, not even this latest episode w/ the police. She thinks she’s immune to stuff ordinary people go through. She’s special and one-of-a-kind.
This woman has access to money and resources that ordinary folk don’t. With her alimony, help from both sisters, and the Bravo paycheck she should be doing okay. If I only had the Bravo money I’d be livin’ life. Not Kim.
Kingsley has EATEN thousands of dollars worth of clothes, shoes and handbags. Shiiiiiiit!!! How careless can a person be. She’s most likely blaming the bar and/or the police, not her behavior or being drunk. I can’t feel sympathy for this woman. She makes no effort to even pretend to show humility.
I agree, if she had humility she would be in full blown recovery .
Yeah, she has access to the greatest recovery resources in the world, but she has to first choose to use them and even if she does, she has to want to quit is what it boils down to. Addiction doesn’t see rich or poor; it appears that other family members have addiction issues, so it is very likely hereditary, just like many people poor or rich. In some ways, having more money and less to do can be a bigger problem when it comes to controlling addiction.
Looks like things are falling about in Kim’s world now that Kathy is her minder. Maybe she needs to apologize to Kyle, and let Kyle look after her again.
Kathie wasn’t much help to Paris or Condead either, well except for sending the car to pick them up after bailing them out. It runs rampant in that family.
CONRAD ! Omg I hate my phone!
@Kate62 but I like “Condead” I think that’s cute! Lol
I thought you meant to type Condead. He’s been busted so many times already and the last one was really dangerous.
Does anyone know who was with her?
Not yet. I’m dying to know who she was fighting with, especially if it was bad enough for management to call BHPD!
Bartender cut her off ALLEGEDLY.
@ tigerlily
The bartender must have asked her if she had relapsed and she went berserk.
My guess was that the bartender cut her off and she went postal on him.
@Kate62 or the bartender might’ve said the magic word, wait for it…..INTERVENTION!!! (cue music from Law & Order)
Reality tv is not the place for Kim. I hope someone within her family can make her see that. I am so tired of watching this train wreck. I wondered for a half a second whether she would finally take some ownership and say she fucked up, but there’s no way. She will have an excuse and it will be some bullshit story THAT SHE BELIEVES and thinks we believe too.
@Dana lets face it, reality tv seems to be turning otherwise semi-sane people into idiots right before our eyes. They don’t seem to get that the constant camera intruding into all parts of their lives for a dollar isn’t such a good idea in the long run. Look at how many families that have been destroyed. Smh
@eg
They’re already on the road to destruction, Bravo just helps them to pick up the pace .
Reality TV is not the place for anyone. If you weren’t screwed up before Bravo, it’s guaranteed you will be after Bravo. Look at the pioneers of reality TV, the Loud family, and they were filmed by the classy network, PBS. Private life is meant to be private.
Anyone who signs a Bravotv contract to become famous walks into it with their eyes wide open.
no place is the place for kim; unless it is a straightjacket. sorry but she
is one nasty self-centered bitch.
If Kim wasn’t sucha bitch I would have some sympathy but I’m glad this has happened. Maybe she will finally get straight and sober but this is Kim. She lives life on the edge.
I kinda feel bad that I DON’T feel bad. She had it coming.
I agree Ginger.
That’s funny, but true. I didn’t quite know how to express it, but you nailed it.
Kind of a bad time to not be speaking to your sister! Karma is a fast bitch, yikes! But seriously, even with all of her nasty messy behavior this is still sad. Hopefully this is a case of Karma working full circle and something positive comes out of it, as in she gets the help she needs. Bravo also needs their own wake-up call and step in to help, be part of the solution or they will continue being part of the problem!
Do not pass go, do not collect $200, go directly to rehab!! Karma seems to be the theme for Kim today. Did she really think she could bully, attack and defame other people to shield herself and her sick secret. I have only one want for her, and that is for Bravo to fire her. Quit paying her a salary to portray herself on TV, a woman of her age needs to be taught a lesson, in the hardest way that it can be taught. TAKE AWAY THE REWARD FOR BEING A HORRIBLE PERSON!
Well you know what they say: Karma’s only a bitch if you are. So, Kim, her ya go.
It’s only a matter of time before she blames the show, the women, her sister, the Kingsley situation, and Monty’s cancer. Sad, but she won’t take ownership for what she does ever.
Well. I guess that’s the status of the sobriety she isnt struggling with.
According to ABC news she has a court appearance on May 10th. Can’t wait.
Normally I wouldn’t post this due to TTs rules, but she said to keep her updated here so…..Los Angeles Times writes that it was initially reported as a fight, but apparently Kim was alone and “bothering patrons.” She allowed herself to be escorted from the restaurant by security, then asked to use the restroom. Then she refused to come out. Once she was at the police station, she attempted to kick an officer in the groin, but missed and just kicked his leg. Holy batshit. So many questions. Like, what was she doing at the Polo Lounge drinking alone??
She was fighting with herself……. perfectly normal, healthy behavior….
there is no way she was alone. her friends probably stayed in the bar while her drunk ass was being thrown out. the cops just found her alone.
Why couldn’t
Ooops!
Why couldn’t Kim be there alone?
Bothering patrons? Lol. I hope some of them spill the beans.
I suppose it was only a matter of time. Guess BG was right to be concerned. I think all of the cast knew she was using. Maybe they had to sign NDAs or something.
@tootsie, BG was concerned? Brandi thought it was hypocritical of the ladies to even question Kim’s sobriety! It was infuriating listening to her comparing Kyle having space cake to if Kim had had some space cake. The idiot thought it was hypocritical for them to judge Kim but not themselves. That’s how concerned she was. BG did nothing but enable Kim.
I thought Brandi expressed concern over Kim’s situation during her conversation with Lisa Rinna. The one where she sort of made veiled comments re: the patch, implied that things were worse than people knew, etc. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not a Brandi fan, but I think she knew things were spiraling out of control.
I think you’re right, tootsie. Brandi was keeping a lid on it because she’s a great friend and all *sarcasm*
If they had to sign NDAs, do you think we’d have spent half the season and the entire reunion talking about Kim’s sobriety?
I don’t know why this season became all about Kim and her sobriety culminating in an arrest days after the reunion aired. But I do think many of the HWs knew she was drinking/using during the season.
This is the nonsense that Kyle has spent years preventing or cleaning up. I’m sure Kim’s sister Kathy dropped everything to spring Kim from the pokey. On the way home they can convince to each other that this is all Kyle’s fault.
Alcoholics don’t have relationships, they take hostages.
Truest words I’ve ever read.
You nailed it.
Weirdly deep. I never thought of it like that. Thank you.
There it is, so profoundly expressed. Thank you khintx. For those of you that have been fortunate in life to never have been exposed to an addict, these are the most important words you should remember. “They take hostages.” Addicts suck holes in their loved ones souls. They are simply a different and insidious form of terrorism.
Addicts totally suck the life out of you, until you FINALLY wise up and realize it’s one thing for them to jack their life up, but they have no right to jack up yours, all in the name of love. Sometimes, there’s just not enough love in the world. Sad, but true.
You need to copyright that phrase, never heard such a true description of alcoholism in my life.
khintx, you need to do what Reading Beads said, copyright this and print Tshirts. I’ll take one as soon as the ink is dry.
Spot on. If you don’t help you are not a great sister, if you help them then you don’t trust them to do it themselves. If you step back it’s abandonment, if you stay near, you’re hovering. Kyle was in a lose lose situation. Now it’s Kathy’s fight to lose.
@khintx, best comment!!! Please let us know when t-shirts are available!
That expression is used often in AA meetings. My mom said it often when she would tell her story. Sadly, it is the truth….but when really sober and clean it is said as an apology.
Yup. Also commonly heard in alanon and other family support groups. It’s a good one. Sometimes those dorky sayings really do help. Lol
Great words, khintx (my autocorret wants to call you “joints”!).
@tb: do you really think Kathy is just hanging around calling Kim 3-4 times a day? Kim is using that to get at Kyle, but you can bet she’s told Kathy the exact same thing before. Kim does not have a peachy relationship with Kathy all the time. She likely doesn’t most of the time. Kyle and Kathy have probably spent their entire lives looking after Kim, and Kathy’s the one Kim isn’t attacking now.
I don’t know if anyone has mentioned this, but I think Kathy is an enabler. She pretty much bails her kids out of everything, why not Kim, too?
There is a was to figure out the topic of the conversation without wandering in completely blind.

Well this is extremely sad to see. 🙁
yes. its heartbreaking. I know because I am a recovering alcoholic. It hurts to see this. It’s not entertaining.
Same here, sad, but not at all surprising. She had no semblance of a program in her life and was in denial to an extent that was mind boggling. I can’t stand her as a person, but as a fellow addict/alcoholic, I hope she gets the help she needs. I wouldn’t wish this disease on my worst enemy.
You’re right, it’s not entertaining, and this situation is very sad. Addicts often relapse. I think folks are commenting so much due to Kim’s blatant denial that she still struggles with her sobriety. She would benefit from an extended stay in inpatient rehab (at least 90 days), but I doubt that will happen due to the wedding, Monty, lawsuit, and Kingsley situation. I don’t think anyone truly wishes her ill, but the poor woman really does need help, and her behavior on the RHOBH did kind of set her up for negative comments. And congratulations to you and other recovering alcoholics and addicts. None of you should take these comments personally. Kim may have abstained for awhile, but she certainly didn’t exhibit behavior of an addict in recovery.
Exactly.
@Shay ~ I have no idea where this comment is gonna land, but your comment in parenthesis CRACKED ME UP! I agreed with the rest of it too!
I agree. If someone takes pleasure in this type of thing, it’s a reflection on one’s character.

Re: the naughty seat – more like a naughty area – SRO.
And I’ll be occupying the naughty seat right next to you, Tamara. I admit to having no sympathy or empathy for Kim Richards. She’s vile, and she’s paying for being vile. This is not a statement about others who struggle with alcohol or drug dependency. Strictly about the cunt satchel that is KR.
Hmmm, how many thousands are doing a happy dance right this minute!
Scoot over, because I’m going to need some room on the naughty seat too. I’m not exactly getting pleasure from it, but I’m glad that she showed true self and took out all the guesswork, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
I think it’s ridiculous to accuse any of us of enjoying watching an addict relapse. This addict hasn’t been sober and we are tired of being lied to, tired of watching her use, tired of having her dark life being used as entertainment, and tired of watching an unkind, vindictive, dog abusing asshole ruin our light show where we want to see rich people living fabulous lives with fabulous things that we want. Her life and personality is a nothing we want. Its what haunts our fellow commenters and brings us to a reality we are trying to escape from for an hour. (Now, move over. My ass isn’t tiny.)
I have lost 3 members of my family in a family of 6, brother, mother and father. Their addictions killed them so I take no pleasure in Kim “disease” . While I sympathize for anyone struggling with addiction and recovery, if one is truly in recovery. Kim is not in recovery, never has been! I have lived my whole life feeling exactly the way Kyle feels. I will never say I know how a person with addiction feels because I don’t know, but I can empathize with Kyle. An addict will never know the tears and pain that their loved ones feel when watching a family member slowly kill themselves. Kim refuses to accept any responsibility for her own disease, all she want to do is attack and deflect until everyone shuts down. Whatever is being said about her on the Internet is her own doing. We live in a transparent era now and when you put yourself out there for public consumption then expect to be eaten alive when you show your true colors in public or on TV. No sympathy here. Now people in the naughty place make room for me I’m on my way.
I’m going there too … we might need a naughty stadium.
It’s not pleasure; it’s vindication.
I wish for you all to experience unconditional love. Can’t give it to an addict or alcoholic in your life? Then don’t expect to receive it when you need it most. Now scoot the fuck over….
This is karma at its best and I need room in the naughty area as well. Did not watch the whole season but saw part 2 and 3 of the reunion. This is what schaedenfreude is all about. Others may not be willing to admit it, but this is Kim’s payback for her behavior towards others this season and to be charged with the very thing she accused Rinna of? Priceless!
Put me in too! Can we have pizza and beer delivered?
Bringing donuts to the naughty room.
Wow, my how people forget we can go back and read their earlier comments that were so stoked Kim got caught!
Oh, and ditto what Shay said. I want my hour filled with diamonds and rosè, not devil concerning scary calling Eileen a beast. If you’re gonna lie and be that fuckin mean about it, don’t do it on national TV. So much for isolating when she drinks…
BH Dubs- imagine if she would have behaved at the bar. We would all be none the wiser. Makes you think she probably has been to bars and gotten away with it, because even with her “fame” and antics at a pap heavy place there are no photos or videos.
Agreed, my jaw dropped and then immediately I felt sad for Kim. Her shitty behavior towards the other housewives shows she doesn’t feel culpable but this is going to be a hard climb for her. And she has only two outcomes; survive or die. I
Kim plays polo?
Let’s see, kick a cop (allegedly) Kim receives a CITATION. If I on the other hand kick a cop chances are I’d be on my way to glory.
Kim states she only took a pain pill, however the cops noted a strong smell of booze. My pain pills are generic and sometimes have a strong odor of pain pills. Kim’s sobriety is not in jeopardy, it left her a while back. She’s a drunk in extreme denial. Glad they released her so we’ll get another cup of tea filled with sugar, honey, ice, tea. Brandi is a good life coach, if only she had a life. This is such a mess.
Yeah, Grandmalou. So the cops felt no need to taser her or throw her to the ground like any other “commoner” who talks back, resists arrest, and most of all KICKS A COP!!! I guess Beverly Hills Karma is different.
You’re a shipwreck waiting to happen when Brandi Glanville is your lighthouse. (I left this on the P3 Reunion blog, but it seems much appropriate here). Kim’s ship done wrecked!
Holy shite!!!
A mean person can’t be trusted. I’ld rather trust a addict, ex-con than a mean person.
Kim is a very mean person. She will destroy everyone around her with a smile on her face.
This might sound simplistic to a few of you however a truly mean person has no deep feeling for anyone. They are ugly on the inside and take their pleasure from the pain of others. Check out when Kim smiles. Scary.
She is a scary, nasty woman.
I almost always agree with you, Cap.
But I don’t think Kim is probably a mean person when she is sober and actively practicing a program.
A lot of people (including Rinna) have said Kim was always very sweet and kind.
However when she is actively using (or on her way… Not doing the work it takes to stay sober), she is meaner than a snake. Super defensive and blaming everyone. Someone up higher really nailed it. An addict doesn’t have friends. They take hostages. That is brilliant!
I think we have caught glimpses of Kim sober and actively working hard at her sobriety. And she seemed very nice, silly and a bit self-deprecating to me.
I really and truly hope this will be the catalyst to her sobriety. For not only her sake, but her family’s as well. Kyle has said in many of her talking heads that when Kim is sober, she is wonderful and they have a great relationship.
Ugh! I feel bad for all involved.
@pip, maybe you are right. Alcohol and drugs do dull a persons emotions and feelings.
Messes with their sanity.
I’ve lived through a addict and a very mean man. Can’t help a mean person.
I’ll take the addict, maybe it’s b/c I understood it wasn’t personal.
I could be overly sensitive about the meanness also.
I agree with Calipatti. The reunion alone exposed her sick, vicious smile when she hurts someones feelings. Yeah, she has a substance abuse problem. That doesn’t mean she absolutely has to be a bitch to every body surrounding her. No.
It’s all cool, you guys. I just think many people who are addicts are often times very, very different when they are sober and in recovery. Almost unrecognizable, really.
But I dig Calipatti. And the rest of you. The reunion is replaying on Bravo right now and Kim definitely is behaving awful. No question about that.
Pip,
Baloney. Kim Richards is about as evil as they get. Her “sweet side”? That’s called manipulation. There has never been a time when I’ve seen or heard of her doing something selfless or kind. Watching what she’s done to her own sister is heartrending and the kind of self-entitlement it takes to encourage a pit bull to attack (oh yes, she knew the consequences of her non-actions) is sociopathic.
Watch her when she doesn’t think the cameras are directly on her. It’s very telling.
That bitch scares the living shit out of me. Mistaking “sweet” for “kind” is a big mistake in life. It’s the sticky sweet manipulative assholes that will destroy your world if you let them.
And using alcoholism as a manipulative excuse? Classic sociopathic behavior. She may be an alcoholic, but I don’t think so. I think she is a narcissistic, parasitic, sociopath who uses AA “catch phrases” to excuse her vile behaviors. This is not a person who WANTS recovery. This is a person who wants to force their nasty behaviors upon anyone and everyone around them.
It’s a power thing.
she’s most definitely an alcoholic AND she’s using her disease to manipulate others. She learned just enough in rehab to be dangerous and convince ppl (or think she is) that she’s soberwhen she ain’t. Although many alcoholics are nice people underneath the disease, not all are. It’s hard to tell if they haven’t done the work which I seriously doubt she has. I’ve seen many amazing transformations from people when they do the steps, but unfortunately not many people get through them.
That being said..she doesn’t deserve anyone’s sympathy until she does make an honest effort in her recovery. Until she does, she is just going to cause untold damage and pain to everyone in her vicinity. She has the resources and access to treatment that most don’t and she has the tools to get better at her disposal. She’s just choosing not to. The less ppl apologize and make excuses for her at this point, the better chance of her having a come to Jesus moment.
@Gillette
Yeah. Well wouldn’t be the first time I was wrong about someone. That’s for sure. I was trying to point out that perhaps Kim has some decency under that awful exterior that is her using personality… Since a lot of addicts do emerge from their horrible selves to surprisingly good people often times.
But you guys might be right- maybe there is no good underneath her bad.
@Pip, @Gilette & @satinbliss: You all make terrific and insightful observations. The point about Kim going to rehab just to learn the lingo is so true. It’s become a running joke on this site. Has she “worked” 3 years for her sobriety or has she NOT been struggling. Which is it Kim?!
I agree with you Calipatti!
I agree. I dont think her meaness is all from her addictions. I see her reveling in her meaness way too much, and still acting like that when shes not loaded. Shes devoid of empathy and compassion and very much a follower, with no moral compass guiding her what so ever. Not all alcoholics/addicts are good people inside, if only they wouldnt use. This is why some of us are not as sympathetic as we might normally be.
I like what Gillette said about people mistaking sweetness for kindness. That is so so true!!!! I think sweetness is the stock and trade of low lifes, to cover up who they really are and manipulate kind geniune types. One definatly has to be aware of the difference.
@calipatti that is not a smile. That is a maniacal grimace grin. With a side of glassy red eyes.
@eg … LOL, well said. Thank you everyone, I don’t have the confidence of belief I should have.
Soooo true. That woman is evil.
Gosh I hope Kim doesn’t keep up the “ive been sober for three years” talk. This arrest only sealed it shut shes never been sober, ever, so I hope she stops with the lies and finally goes to rehab and live a sober life. But she has to want it for her.
Great post. It is hard to feel empathy for someone who is as mean as Kim is. That car ride with Lisa R. was effing terrifying. I got the chills and I was in the comfort of my home. That’s when I KNEW, not thought, that Kim was batsh*t crazy.
Maybe she was blowing off steam after TT banished her to the window licker section.
Seriously though, this might be best thing for her if she sees it as the wake up call it really is. Let’s hope so!
your comment makes perfect sense !
It’s TT’s fault ! Tamara you think you are of no use, but look at the power you hold over people. You made Kim take to drinking because she ended up with cotton mouth from window licking. Bless her heart .
Oh, TT and Kyle are in.cahoots to take Kim down. And it was actually TT whole stole the damn house.
Gahh! You are RIGHT! She was the commenter late last night.
I pray that Kyle does NOT coming running to her defense or to bail her out, etc. etc. NO! The only person on earth that does not understand there are consequences to our actions in life is Kim Richards. There’s no better time than right now for her to have to sit her bony ass down in a jail cell, thaw out and start going through the process of becoming clean/sober – all on her own. No more babysitters. KYLE – LEAVE HER ON HER OWN. Monsters belong in a locked up room. Now which sister does everyone think Kim called for help? Kathy? Kyle?
I feel more sorry for poor Kingsley who is most probably locked up in Kim’s bedroom whilst she goes cavorting around to the bars. No wonder the dog acts the way it does.
Called a attorney? A bondsman?
Monty? Guessing her actual bail was not very high, if at all.
How embarrassing to walk out of a jail in her party cloths in the sunshine.
Walking out in your party clothes is the walk of shame… is it still called that when you’re walking out of jail?
I think it’s called that if you’re ever wearing yesterday’s clothes/makeup the next day.
Take the show out of the equation and we all have to realize that Kim is an addict and she must hit her rock bottom before she will truly get the help she so desperately needs. I pray for her that this will be her bottom. Bravo should NOT try to profit anymore from this woman’s pain.
I agree!
I hope she has become a large enough liability that even Bravo and Andy will say “enough” and get her the help she needs
See, she’s already sort of blaming Bravo for her dog mauling someone two or three times. The production company wouldn’t be named in the lawsuit otherwise. Someone/something gave Rosario the idea that Bravo had something to do with it. It wouldn’t surprise me at all if that happened to have been Kim. Yes, I think she’s deeply stupid. She always seems to pass the buck. Bravo somehow knows this, or at least suspects it. Hence, they’ve portrayed her in an unflattering light this past season and especially at the reunion. NOW, with the bar/police situation Bravo has more than enough ammo to be able to legitimately distance themselves from the dog lawsuit and to give Kim a pink slip. She’s fucked herself so thoroughly with this one that she’s won’t be able to recover for a loooong time.
Deep pockets. The prproduction company can be sued because they have much more cash than Kim. It is common in personal injury cases to sue any one and evryone even somewhat relevant to the case as long as they can structure a complaint in a proper way to ahow negligence even if it is ubserd until they get dimissed out of the law suit.
Bravo is not a defendant in the dog bite lawsuit.

Sorry, I meat the production company.
Sorry folks…. but it’s not up to Bravo, Kyle, Kathy “the wonderful sister”, BG or even her kids. It’s up to Mizz Kim. They can fire, dismiss, elude or ignore her but the only chance of Kim really gaining sobriety is when she chooses to do so. I do agree she should be off tv….in fact have prayed for it because I can’t stand seeing her. Her nasty, moronic, evil self is not due to her illness… imo that is who she truly is. When she is semi-sober her acting skills kick in and she presents herself as what she wants the world to see. When her senses(what little she has) are dulled she shows who she really is….. and as Maya Angelou said…. “when someone shows you who they truly are… believe them” World meet the real Kim
When has Bravo EVER had a problem profiting off one’s pain?
All I can think of is her Kid’s. Kim made it very clear that if any of them doubted her sobriety, their would be a problem. I wonder if any of this “Fun” night out, had anything to do with what EVERY ONE was privy to during Part 3 on Tuesday night? Just super curious…
I can only guess/imagine that it was pretty easy to keep her stories going with her Kid’s in regards to her and Kyle’s problems. Then to watch Tuesday night…ouch! That’s their Aunt also. These kid’s aren’t stupid.
BG’s tweet:
” @BrandiGlanville 4 hours ago
Wanted to say thank you to @KimRichards11 for donating to our school auction in the middle of all she has going on! so proud of her”
She would be. She’s probably saying mentally “glad it wasn’t me being dragged out for once .”
God, that almost nauseating.
*that’s* ugh…I hate it when I have to correct myself.
Proud of her!!!? Brandi would be proud. There are no words to describe this sort of evil.
She also tweeted twice that ‘Friends are there for you in the good times and the bad, especially the bad times.’ Done with a large font and lots of punctuation.
That was Brandi.

WTF
Kim’s first “hiccup” in Paris was explained away as a bad combo of meds. Lisa asked if Kim had taken a sleeping pill, and in Kim’s talking head she said “that would mean I relapsed”. She was crying and upset. This season when she takes someone else’s “pain pill” and is totally off her rocker…that is just a mistake. I can’t say I am surprised she is not sober, but I am surprised she did it so publicly.
Omg that’s RIGHT! I had forgotten about that. Interesting. I’ll have to go rewatch that season.
No need to watch the entire season / or episode – Bravo put up a series of 36 clips all re Kim dating back to S1.
How nice of them. Lol. Actually tried to check it out but that site is so horrible I had to leave after a few clicks. Don’t get why these big entities don’t understand that less is more with website design. Grr
Yes! They changed their website a while back and it is painful to navigate.
This is maybe the best thing that could happen to Kim. Now even Kathy can’t enable/turn a blind eye to Kim’s addiction issues. You have to hit rock bottom before you can truly begin to deal with your issues. Hopefully this is her rock bottom.
Absolutely agree with you Micheal, as a person in recovery for 13
years my first thought was that this could end up saving her life.
I kinda doubt Kathy was buying Kim’s bullshit. I also bet she’s had to deal with the same crap Kyle does. Kim just uses one against the other, SO classic. Manipulative. When she said how great Kathy was it was such a transparent dig at Kyle. Not saying Kathy isn’t great, just Kyle’s pretty damn good to Kim, too. And I don’t even like Kyle.
This is a good thing for her,she desperately needs help.
Well, this is embarrassing.
i ran into her in Feb on HW blvd. she was actually quite sweet and sober…but I find her behavior vile and now I only hope this is the kick in the teeth she needs to wake up. As for her release, it happens everywhere and I don’t see the huge difference. Look at Lohan, Spears, Sean Penn, et al….they do something idiotic and walk out a few hours later. It’s all about how fast you are processed and/or make bail. She’s 100 pounds soaking wet so the cops aren’t going to taz her or beat her with a club FFS. go to your local jail at midnight, the drunks without anyone to pick them up are still there 12 hours later. The rest are sobered up and released within hours. Shit 2 weeks ago my BF had to pick up a buddy who got dumped in a cab by a bartender and sent to the ER because he was blotto. Rehydrated and released to my BF in a couple of hours. Really not uncommon so I disagree she was given special treatment. Although I wish they had tossed her ass straight in the psych ward at Cedars….
Unfortunately, they closed Thalians two years ago.
She was in custody for nine hours. That’s a long time. Her height was listed at 5’2″ and weight was 100.

Well that will keep me on the straight and narrow. Anything to keep me off of a scale, not to mention the fear of having it published publicly.
Nancy, thanks — one of funniest comments so far! I almost spit out my coffee. I didn’t know either that you got weighed when booked. 🙂
My nightmare is when you lean forward to take the eye test at the dmv and it triggers the scale you were standing on. Man, my license already gets the side eye when I get carded, I don’t need a legal document with my actual weight. Its funny because males usually round their weight to the nearest 5lbs where women subtract an amount (10lbs) plus 2, so the odd number looks super accurate.
Sometimes I imagine that traffic cops sit around in their break room and laugh about the ridiculous weights that women put on their licenses. Maybe the winner of the most outlandish gets an extra doughnut!
Allegedly.
You don’t in many states your “weight” is on your drivers license. I think mine says I weigh 125. You never have to change it from when you were 16 in Georgia.

A lot of places have a mandatory time an intoxicated person must stay in jail. I live in Florida and the time you must stay is 8 hours. The logic behind it is this gives you the time needed to sober up. Makes sense to me, and this might be why kim was held for so long.
What if you met some hot guy and found out he used to work at a fair guessing weights? (I used to run past those guys yelling at the fair.)
Holy shit, Shay, where did that come from?! I’m dying thinking of a first date…
HIM: “Well, I’m a carnie and I guess weights for a living. See that plant over there? 1.75lbs. That man? 246. I can do metric, too!”
ME: “Oh, God, what do I weigh?”
HIM: “Oh, well I need to feel a little bit before I can tell you that..!”
ME: “WTF is wrong with my life?”
Poor thing, if the Poe Poe would have kept her locked up until 1:30am tomorrow, she could have had at least one day of sobriety under her belt…… One day in three years that is. Bless that mess…
OMG ha ha ha ha ha!
She was just doing research for a role, like any Oscar caliber actress. I heard they’re doing a remake of Down and Out in Beverly Hills.
@tootsie, you are “on” today!
Hi, always nice to see you.
Well, it appears she was continuing her research yesterday afternoon. Photographed getting into her car with clear liquid over ice in a clear glass in hand. It could have just been water, but why open yourself up to speculation?
Has Kim filmed her part in Sharknado 3 yet?
Well if nothing else, Kim has secured her spot on the show next season. Andy must me loving this, you can’t buy this type of publicity. Plus let’s face it, this is a Beverly Hills jail cell, It’s not like she was locked up in the Bronx. #RHOBHLivesMatter
Hahaha!
#RealHousewivesMatter
Good one, Stephen!
Oops-! Got your hashtag wrong. Yours was better
If Robert Downey Jr and Drew Barrymore (and other celebs) finally fight their way back from the drug/alcohol cycle after a long time Kim can too….IF she really wants to. Maybe she will have to loose damn near everything (and maybe almost everybody) and definitely get off tv.
This is sad. Kim get help. Like real professional help not living in denial and half ass recovery help. Stay off of TV. Be with your children. Let them stand by you while you really get help and stay sober this time.
Wow! Wonder what her kids are thinking now? Wasn’t that always her big reason for wanting everyone to stay silent about her sobriety? She effed up good this time, and there is NOBODY she can blame but herself. I do feel bad for her kids though because, just like Kyle, she has put them through the wringer, I would imagine.
DON’T TALK ABOUT MY KIDS!!!!!!
lol…oh, and don’t forget DON’T TALK ABOUT ME! Guess that one is all shot to hell now!
And don’t talk about Kingsley because he’s one of her children! *Tears welling up ….*
Or my unborn children!!!
[My eyes are glowing red.]
Even if she was sober I dont think she would change much.. Being a child actor, isolated from the real world and put on a pedestal as a “star” plus supporting her family.. I really dont think she even knows what normal behavior is, as a person.. Shes not very likable!
Aaaaand in other news… TT, did you see Reza, Jessica and GG are having a twitter fight? Please fill us in on that! Is it about Reza’s tweet over Mike’s reaction in episode 6? I wonder!
Ok, after reading that I had to run over and look. Geez…..Jessica needs to listen to Countess Luann’s song I guess!
LOL Jessica is acting totally cray! There’s no class there.
ALL KIDDING ASIDE. I truly believe that Kim ran into the bathroom to hide because she forgot filming was over and thought it was a safe place to go where the RHOBH camera crew wouldn’t be allowed to film her. Sad, but a possibility.
A rest room is also a very handy place to ditch your stash??
Good point, Lynn.
I never thought of that!! She may have flushed it.
I get that this is Beverly Hills but battery on a police officer is a FELONY. Thats why she was issued a high bond. I doubt she will be convicted of a felony but she was charged with one.
She was NOT charged with a felony. All charges were misdemeanors.

Actually battery on a police officer in CA is usually a misdemeanor (243 (b) (c) PC); if the battery results in an injury that required medical attention, then it becomes what’s called a wobbler which means the DA can charge it as either a misdemeanor or a felony. If she is found guilty (or pleads to) of battery on a PO, then the sentence is up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $2,000.
Should have added a caveat that I work in criminal law in CA which is why I know this 😉
Thank you for the correction. I used google and was just going by what it said. Does seem like a high bond for a public drunkness.
Who was with Cujo? I mean Kingsley, her child! Hmm child neglect!
He was knawing on his nanny.
Is there any confirmed tea about who she was drinking with or was she there alone??
Lots of rumors. Nothing confirmed.

Darn. My hubby is expecting an update. Real Housewives is one of his secret, guilty pleasures.
Meanwhile, Mike is ….
I can’t bring myself to say it.
…shitfaced?
Just a guess.
Brandi tweeted today: “Real friends are their in the good times, the bad times & especially the worst times. I am blessed with real friends & am a real friend myself.” ⊙.☉
.Sanctimonious hypocrite, never misses a chance to speak well about herself.
I’m sure she called the “good sister” to post her bail. She’s mad this went public because when it comes to her sobriety the question is always “what will my kids think? ” Maybe, just maybe, this may wake her up.
Not so sure which one is the “good sister.” I think a house landed on both of them.
When I told my daughter today about Kim, her second question was: “What did Kyle do to her face?! She looks pinched!”
I’m with the people in the naughty row, couldn’t have happened to a better person with the exception of BG maybe and I think BG was with her or knew she was drunk seeing as they’re butt budies on tv, Kim would have zero idea BG wasn’t more than her “Hollywood” friend IRL.
I can just see Andy in my head, smoking a joint as he gazes out his Manhattan window haze thinking to himself “am I the luckiest guy in the world or what?”.
IF you don’t know if something is true about someone’s mental health do not repeat it here.
If you do know something is true about someone’s mental health DON’T REPEAT IT HERE EITHER.
We will not be discussing the medical records of the offspring of reality show participants here unless they are storyline on the show. Which they are not.
And you assumptions were incorrect, BTW.
Please congratulate me! I am cunt satchel of the week!

@Yveline ~ You want Kim to commit suicide so she won’t be on your television screen? Your comment is so inhuman, I want to make sure I’m understanding you right, because I can’t comprehend how someone could even think like that.
sorry. I missed have missed that. Let me go delete. I’m amazed that no matter how I thin the herd, some people still don’t get where the line is.

OMGosh, I came straight here to tell you @ Kim. OMG!!! Now, I’ll have to go read the article. You are going to have to post a new thread. Karma just took a swift bite out of Kim Richards.
So, Kim was in jail during the very early hours of the morning. 9 hrs is a long time I wonder what the conversation was like in her holding cell? Unless BH jail has single suite accommodations for the rich and famous.
Gosh, can you imagine how lousy she felt (and probably looked) when she sobered up during that loooong nine hours? Surely she knew the shit was about to hit the fan and it was too late to stop it. What a terrible wake up call.
I’m watching the reunion…There was so much talking over one another that there was a lot I couldn’t quite make out. I finally understood one part – Kim declaring that the reason why Alexia developed such a serious infections was that Kyle didn’t give her daughters antibiotics for two days. I cannot imagine that even Kim and Brandi’s most die hard fans would ever believe that. Could they?
I thought that Kim said at the reunion that it got infected because Kyle didnt “clean it right”. Maybe I heard wrong.
On a happier note, I cant wait for TT to review the blogs this weekend.
Either way, it was Kyle’s fault! Ya know…
Luckily for Kim she has a lot of support and family who love her. This may be a blessing in disguise and force her to get the real help she needs. Fingers crossed.
To quote Brandi: “It’s called assault and battery, Bitch!”
Well, no surprise. Wonder if she’ll sue police for ruining her family- you know, that old chestnut she pulls out whenever anyone calls her out for being high/ drunk. So how much talking must Lisa R & Eileen be doing after this? Vindicated!
Season 4 she seemed happy, healthy, and in a good place. Should have left then on a high note (no pun intended).
lolololol…yeah, but it still sounded funny 🙂
I wonder if Andy’s going to mention her little indiscretion tonight?
WWHL has Suzanne Somers and she was a lifelong victim of alcohol abuse… so I dunno. Is this show really “live”?
A few years ago my brother in law had a severe bi polar related incident. He is a construction foreman and due to a hurricane was out of work for a while and had to pick between feeding his kids and his meds. He chose the kids. I’m not condoning his actions. He jumped in the back of a mans pick up truck at a stop light because he was hallucinating. The man rightly called the police. When the police jerked him out of the car he spit on one of their shoes. He was arrested. His mental illness pleas were thrown out. He was charged with felony assault on an officer. He got 12 months in jail served 6 and a very lg fine. I’m not gonna harp on the fact he is black and the officers and judge were white but let you judge for yourself if you think that along with the fact he lives in southern N.C. And is not rich. This was his 1st and only time he has ever been in trouble. He is a war veteran and college graduate and great husband and father who suffers a mental illness. I only bring this up because Kim’s wealth and fame will probably get her a stint in rehab and it’s allready been stated she’s only charged with a misdameaner and kicked an officer.
That’s horrible & so unfair that your brother-in-law had to deal with that. I know my husband (also Black) wouldn’t agree, but I try to be optimistic & say it happened possibly because he was a man, or those cops were just assholes! I hope he’s doing much better. My prayers & thoughts are with him.
My issue is not really with the color but the mental illness and not being able to afford high powered lawyers to get you off. Totally unfair system to the average person.
How do you lock yourself in a public bathroom?
the stalls lock and so do some public bathroom doors if it’s a single.
Holy crap! I’ve been away from my computer, just got on and came here first, seriously thought the headline was a joke until I read the article. Wow. Someone in the Polo Longue will spill the beans. Doubt we will ever get to see video from the hotel (I can dream and hope!). But, I would assume, BHPD are wearing body cams. Would love to see that footage plus the cam in the cruiser. I hope this is Kim’s rock bottom but I somehow doubt it. Stick me in the naughty section.
Like they did to Nick Nolte and Mel Gibson. I wonder what names she called the cops as she tried to kick him.
Lisa R can now add Psychic to her list of accomplishments of Mother, wife, actress, etc. She saw firsthand the level of crazy of Kim’s relapse on the ride to the poker party and tried to do whatever she could to keep anything bad from happening to her. Well BAD HAS HAPPENED. Right on the heels of the reunion, Kim gets arrested. WHAT WORKS ON A REALITY SHOW DOES NOT WORK IN REALITY. The cops don’t care that she didn’t want to deal with it and hid in the bathroom, they call that resisting. They don’t care that she says she’s not relapsed when there’s a strong odor of alcohol on her. They don’t care that she refuses to do the right thing, they handcuffed and arrested her. They don’t care that she threw an addict temper tantrum and kicked the officer, they charged her with it. She and Brandi did their best to hide Kim’s relapse with denial, deflection and out and out lies. In court they call that perjury and you pay for that. How can she deny it now? She’ll give it the good old BH addict try no doubt.
I’m deeply concerned about the patch Brandi let slip. Those pain patches are some pretty strong meds. I know cuz my hubby was very sick and had them and he insisted we had a litter of kittens in the garage. We don’t have cats or kittens for that matter! He even made me check on them! He could actually see and hear them! So… ya. IF if if Kim was using Monty’s pain patches, that would explain why she was so out of it.
If anything, a judge might order and demand clean UA’s… inpatient treatment, all sorts of stuff like that. And, maybe even an house arrest bracelet. Sure, it’s misdemeanors, but sentences on those can include jail time and harsh punishment. Judges are getting tired of the Hiltons, et al et ux et vir.
punkinseed, my son who had his leg amputated was put on those patches for pain. The patches are given to people in serious pain not for bronchitis or pneumonia or hernias, or broken ribs or any of the other foolish things Kim said was wrong. That is typical addict behavior…take whatever you can get your hands on at that time. We know she’s been arrested on an alcohol related issue but there could have also been drugs involved. She did make a pit stop in the bathroom. Kim and Brandi threw out that Lisa R could possibly be violent and Kim was frightened by Lisa’s texts. Who’s the violent one now? We shall have to wait and see what happens.
Ya. I wondered why anyone would opt for a patch like she did. Those are strong and like you said, for serious stuff like your son and my hubby needed them for, not stuff that codine is good for like bronchitis, etc.
I wonder if she was on them in Amster? I doubt it was a one time only thing for her.
I still don’t understand Lisa R’s texts.
Fentanyl patches are prescribed to those suffering from long-term moderate to severe chronic pain. Some people (doctors & pharmacists included) think they should only be prescribed to cancer patients but it’s not uncommon for Pain Management Docs to prescribe them to opioid tolerant patients.
After many, many years of taking different meds & countless combinations (including but certainly not limited to Percocet / Oxycontin / Methadone) the body builds up a tolerance & the meds lose any effectiveness. Fentanyl’s been a life saver. Though it doesn’t fully alleviate the pain, without it I would never be able to get out of bed.
Fentanyl is approximately 80 – 100 times more potent than morphine & approximately 15 – 20 times more potent than heroin. If Kim truly was on “the patch” as Brandi said – her problem is much more serious than alcohol → her tolerance is HUGE! If it wasn’t we would never be discussing her behavior at poker night (or any other time during the season) because she would’ve been passed out at home (or worse)!
Bottom line: Anyone abusing a patch that doesn’t have years of opioid tolerance = death!
Ya. I was against my hubby being on the Fentanyl patch because I was working and afraid to leave him alone. He was screaming in pain day and night though, so yes. they do the job. Kim has no biz on the patch. And Brandi didn’t let that slip out deliberately. You can tell she regretted saying it. Like a Freudian Slip is how I took it.
I think Kim is trying to use to outrun withdrawals and is losing it along the way. She may have been drinking to ease withdrawals. Well… who really knows. I just want her to get well.
I also want her to get well but if she is abusing “the patch” – in no way is alcohol going to touch her withdrawal symptoms. That would be like a heroin addict trying to drink their “sick” away → ain’t gonna happen! They would need to be gradually tapered down or placed on Methadone. I truly hope she’s not abusing this shit. As you know it’s nothing to be played with.
I had expected that the patch comment by Brandi would be discussed and shown during one of the 3 reunion episodes. Since we didn’t see it discussed, I wonder if it was brought up at all at the reunion.
I know, huh? I don’t remember if it was brought up at the reunion. It was hard to follow a lot of the conversations between the screeching Brandi and the rest talking over each other.
Very well put Hannah.
I am so glad that most people that comment here can see through the gas lighting that is Kim Richards. I am finding that people everywhere are scolding some for laughing at this asshat. Yes, I am laughing at her.
She laughed at Rinna while she was crying. She feels no compassion for others and only thinks of herself. I am not sure that being an addict is Kim’s biggest problem. I think she is a spoiled brat and an asshole. So, no. I do not feel bad for her. I feel bad for her family but her family knew this was coming. This family has kept this under wraps and they all know she has never truly embraced the steps as she should have. I think this sobriety story line was a put on to shush all of us into not being so hard on her. I think Brandi became the person she would vent to about all things “poor Kim” and Brandi bought into it because it served her purposes.
I am going to speculate about Sharknado 3. I think Brandi and Kim were not speaking in the time leading up to the reunion (Brandi admitted Kim was upset with her), I think they agreed to align (Brandi admitted that the cast wanted to cause a division between the two at the reunion, but when they saw Brandi connected Kim with her new Buddy Ian Zeiring as a favor to make nice. Sharknado was probably a hand out.
Brandi and Kim have called their costars Crazy, Violent, Manipulative, Hypocrites and have even tried get rumors going of addiction. This is the only time I have seen real vindication on these shows. There is always a promise of it, but it never really happens.
OOPs I meant..
…when they saw that Brandi and Kim aligned at the reunion.. the cast had to change plans. Brandi alluded to this. The Sharknado stuff is separate. I am having trouble getting my thoughts out lately.
Perhaps you’ve got chronic Lyme disease. Jk. I just got called an asshat on Twitter for saying the words karma Kim, can’t believe she still has defenders. Feel better
Lol Lisa. Maybe I need to do a cleanse.
I respect Tamara’s rule about nick names but I saw one somewhere today that Really had me in stitches! I’d love to share but I like staying out of trouble here lol.
Brandi’s blog is up and Damage Control is written all over it. She clearly fired her ghostwriter and her PR took over. Gotta sell the unfiltered piss water!
I’m still confused. The cast of RHOBH had to change plans at the reunion (like the cast did to Lisa VanderPump that time)?
Is Brandi or Kim in the cast of Sharknado3? I checked the cast and neither of them are listed in it. If I missed that on the reunion it’s probably because I was covering my ears from Brandi’s shrill voice. My ears are still ringing from her coloratura rants.
Kim has already filmed her cameo on Sharknado.

I just don’t get this. This is not her modus operandi. My relapses were always alone with the shades drawn and the bottles hidden and shoved to the bottom of the rubbish, and that is how I imagine Kim would fall off the wagon too. She has never been stumbling all over town like Lindsay Lohan or Brandi. Mind you, my shrink would not consider that Kim was ever sober when she is so clearly on Xanax since rehab. God I miss xanax
Perhaps she never got on the wagon?
Maybe she was on a bender and drank everything in her house before she was done for the night.
Just a couple ideas…
Agree @ blondsense. She is not out there. EXCEPT when she mixes DRUGS or has the xanax with alcohol. Look at the aggression she’s been having. Only when she’s lit. Sign. Can’t wait for the employee and other patron reports.
Word.
Maybe one of her kids was at home and she didn’t want them to see her drinking. Or maybe she didn’t want Monty to see her drinking. He is the father of one of her daughters after all, and Kim might be afraid that he’d tell his daughter that he was worried about Kim drinking again. She went by herself to the Bev Hills hotel and drank alone. Sad but predictable after the pill popping incident.
MOnty is not and has not been living with Kim. That was storyline.
Hey TT, are there any updates on Monty’s condition? Was looking, but couldn’t find anything past November of last year.
Well Lisa R did say she would eff her up! Jedi mind tricks lol!
Maybe that’s how she started but she got bolder and bolder and felt untouchable.
Did #1 sister Kathy bail her out and deal with the aftermath?
Does anybody know when Brooke’s Wedding #2 is scheduled? This might really put a hiccup in plans for a happy celebration…
Sorry if I’m the only one that missed this, but why is she getting married a second time?
We need to revisit the patch. Because most of us live our daily lives without exposure to this unique kind of drug use, we don’t know the signs. (Myself included-big time) it’s not meant for use on a 100 pound otherwise healthy person. Deeper into its use, the wackier she gets, even with slight doses. It’s not a recreational or commonly used method, so this aggression, mood, and deleriousness we have seen can be explained away. (Not really) She’s a really accomplished addict.
Experts needed for verification please.
KK, I was on a fentanyl patch one time. I think it was a 72 hr patch when I finally was sent home after my hysterectomy. I was miserable, mean beotch but that could be because I couldn’t pull myself up, etc and felt like ass from surgery.
I realise now, after reading these posts and googling, that this is what my dog had for chronic pain in his neck and back, and where they put the patch on his ribcage, except for a slight fuzz, the fur has never grown back.
Yes. I don’t know of ANY pain pill that would make you act like kim in the car with Rinna. That’s how someone on morphine IV drip OR a Fentanyl patch with no pain would act. See, when you’re in excruciating pain, pain meds/patches take away some pain and you react more normally. When you take meds your body doesn’t need, then you act high. End of story.
Thank you, I’ve been wondering why she has been so aggressive and hateful this season. She’s always been a mess but usually she’s a happy/goofy drunk. I figured it had to be that she changed substances to something that was causing that side effect.
I was on morphine drip on the hospital a few times. Once, I wasn’t in THAT much pain (impacted kidney stones stuck in my ureter and I was having surgery in the morning). It was my sisters bday and she and all our friends stopped by to see me in their clubbing clothes. I apparently said out loud all that I was thinking. They kept laughing. It made me say more (unusually) aggressive, mean things. They still talk about what an evil bitch lives secretly inside me.
I was on a morphine drip for the exact same thing, surgery in the AM, etc, and asked my parents to come visit. They arrived and I said they sounded like a “fucking herd of elephants stomping around.” I have never sworn at my parents except that day. (Even as an adult, I respect their feelings towards swearing, especially the “f word”. They know I have a sailor mouth elsewhere, but never directed at them!)
A guy I was just beginning to date visited and I screamed at him that if I didn’t want the hospital food, why the hell would I want his cheap-ass chocolates.
Etc.
I’m normally pretty nice.
@kkbella, Re: “the patch”, I’m NOT an expert anymore, but I work in pharmaceutical industry & have sold pain pills to doctors/hospitals in the past. Also, my dad (who was a doctor & barely took an aspirin) got fatal brain cancer & we had hospice at home. He chose to die of starvation/no water bc he knew it would allow him to die faster. He also knew it was going to be painful as fuck. (He WAS an expert) He said it would take 8 days & he was right on the mark. (Calculated by his weight, height, muscle mass, etc.) He had the fentanyl patch for this pain & once applied was in coma by day 3, died on day 8. Patches are used by dying & severe pain from legit surgeries/disease, i.e. Cancer. They are usually replaced every 36-72 hours depending on the strength/mg/dose. Addicts use them by licking them to injest highest amount of drug & immediate high which often results in fatal overdoses. Much bigger deal than popping pills. If KR has access to Monty’s stash of these; I doubt this incident is her rock bottom. Sadly. The mixing of alcohol, pills, patch (allegedly), makes me conclude she is “trash can junkie” — meaning she will injest just about anything without hesitation if it has potential to get her high. Even some heavy opiod type pain pills are simply put, synthetic heroin. Doubt misdimeanor is going to stop her. Sorry for long post was hoping to help explain the patch issue.
Fentanyl patches are typically prescribed to patients either in severe pain or hospice-type settings. Think long term cancer patients. They’ve actually been black boxed. They are very risky. I’ve admitted many patients that accidentally overdose on them. They’re typically a 36 hr long acting patch. So imagine a 70yr old applying the patch every 3 days but oh, what do you know? After a few doses, they’re sleepy and forgot when they last applied the patch. So they apply another one and overdose themselves. Happens a lot. Addicts love fentanyl patches btw. The minute it was mentioned on RHBH, I knew kim completely relapsed. Also- addicts have certain personalities and behaviors that I saw repeatedly by Kim on the show. I honestly don’t think she’s ever been totally clean.
Sorry meant 72 hr long acting
It’s not uncommon for a dr. to prescribe them to be applied every other day if the person has built a tolerance &/or has a lean body mass.
