It would appear to me that Kim is back living at Monty’s house. Maybe. If she is not in rehab, or sober living, she is definitely crashing at Monty’s house. Clearly, the two are a “thing” again. I can’t help but think what a terrible idea it is. Kim’s next relapse will be BAD when Monty passes, if it takes that long for her to relapse. And Monty seems completely delusional about everything in general and Nene Leakes level of delusional about Kim’s “career.” He talks about “her movie” which is a cameo appearance in Sharknado 3:Oh Hell No! on the SyFy channel. Plus all the other things she has lined up but can’t talk about. Um, like what? Is celebrity rehab coming back? I’d totally watch if Kim was on it. Seriously, what else could she do?
Click through to read Monty’s Instagram comments. You should probably be sitting down.
montybrinson Sitting in bed early in the morning, just thinking how wonderful yesterday was with @kimrichards11 the fireworks started early. What makes me laugh is people wondering are we or are we not. All I can say is I’m so proud of Kim and can’t wait till the premier of your movie this month and for the world to see how beautiful and great you are doing and committed you are for yourself in finding the happiness you deserve and staying on track with your life. I wish I could tell everyone all the things that you have lined up in your life to fulfill your happiness inside. Everyone loves a comeback and you will be seen in a positive light. Anybody who would ever meet you would see what I saw in you many years ago. There are so many people out there pulling for you and just remember you are loved by many. Always stay strong and don’t let people walk over you or take advantage of you anymore. Spread the love. I’m proud of you and blessed to know you. Your friend always Monty #family #rhobh #friends #love #heart #special. We are all in this together and you’re never alone and your family loves you so much
Then, he promises never to die and leave her. Because, delusional.
montybrinson @kimrichards11 just a reminder I’m doing great, I’m not going anywhere I was born to spread love and help anyone in need. That’s what makes me happiness inside. It’s not about but others that make me happy. I’m a fighter, so know I’ll always be there for you. Can’t get rid of me that easy lol
This will not end well. I feel really sorry for Kim. I really do.
This is so weird. He signed the first one “Your friend always Monty”, yet the photo & his comment about people wondering are they or aren’t they seems to insinuate that they are a couple. I feel sorry for Kim, too. I wonder who he is referring to when he says people take advantage of her. Kyle? I don’t see how anyone could take advantage of her. It seems that as an adult she has been taken care of by others more than she’s done the taking care of. Monty is pushing hard to make it seem like Kim is a hot commodity… it’s too late to create a story line for her on RHOBH. Too weird.
Ooh….maybe you’re onto something. Maybe a “rekindled romance” between Kim and a sick Monty is a ploy to tempt producers to take her back?
Yes of course that is it. Kim is either in sober living or should be, but of course, now that RHOBH has been filming for awhile, Monty and Kim are faking a romance in order to get on a show that has fired her and is already in production!
Jesus Christ on a cracker. Everything anyone says or does is now “for ratings” or “trying to get a contract even if they have been fired for MONTHS?

That was my first thought. She’s attempting to have a storyline other than her addictions in a last-ditch effort to win Bravo back. Hopefully it doesn’t work.
He’s not referring to anything specifically. He is rambling and delusional.
Hmm. I’m not sure that I see delusion in Monty’s posts so much as I see unconditional love and support, something that Kim probably has precious little of in her life. Combined with the fact that Monty isn’t long for this world, it’s no wonder that Kim is spending as much time with him as possible.
As far as “not going anywhere”, this is the attitude of someone who decided to fight his illness rather than to just lay down and die. Perhaps it’s part of the reason he has survived this long after his diagnosis.
That is exactly what I see too. I think he is a good man that wants to believe before he moves on that Kim will and is ok. He may be delusional but is a delusion that he needs to get through. I feel like he never got over her truly. After watching Vicki and her pain I just think go for it Monty whatever you need to do to be in peace than do it.
I think the problem is that for Kim, and many addicts, “unconditional love and support” is actually enabling. Yes, his “lets fight this” attitude is admirable to an extent, but saying that to someone as delusional and mentally sick as Kim? It isn’t realistic and it isn’t giving her the opportunity to mentally prepare for this (since she would be too fuzzy to see the writing on the wall).
Two things also stand out – she’s lined up “things” to make her happy?
Also, no one will be taking advantage of her? That just feeds into her victim mentality, and the accusations (both vague and more concrete) she flung at Kyle (when I think at the heart of it all – as her enabler since childhood, Kyle hit her own “rock bottom” when her daughter was hospitalized and finally put a stop to supporting Kim’s addiction. When enablers no longer enable, sometimes they get a tremendous amount of backlash from the addict and those still enabling).
This is very true. But this is unique in the fact that Monty has not much longer to live. I don’t think his thinking is clear or rational. It is not his job at this point to be Kim’s savior, he needs to worry about himself. It is all so sad.
I totally agree with you, sunday, but sometimes it’s easier to focus on someone else than on yourself (especially when your own stuff is so scary). >
Kim seems to have periods of sobriety between drunken stupors. I’d call that binge drinking rather then a relapse.
Just so everyone understands the disease, binge drinking is an alcoholic action. There are people who only drink on the weekends and they call themselves alcoholics. Any alcohol is bad for Kim, as she proved a month or so ago. It’s almost like she searches for ways to sabotage her sobriety.
You can be a binge drinker and remain sober for more then a week at a time. It’s what happens when you drink that’s the problem, not how often.
maybe at times she is a dry drunk??
Are people on this thread serious right now? Do people still not know what alcoholism actually entails? Do people think denial and “unconditional love” are helpful to an addict? Be worried for her, trust me. I’ve seen all sides of addiction and she has not had any significant period of solitude, meditation, true honesty or self awareness in her life thus far. Monty should be there for her, love her, but don’t be in denial or act like a cameo in a now popular D list movie series is some huge accomplishment. Getting serious about your sobriety for your children and your own well being is a huge accomplishment.
I’m an alcoholic with long term sobriety so I think I now something about addiction. Binge drinkers can be alcoholics and nobody said they couldn’t be so what’s your problem?
Oh. um disregard my last post. 🙁 #Cheers

Okay, whatever you say. I don’t feel like arguing with people about what THEY said. Read your own post, then go read up on alcoholism (or read your own pamphlet) & you’ll see how completely contradictory you sound.

I agree talking about her movie premiere when her cameo is showing on the Sci Fy channel is really sad and so delusional. I wonder if they wrote this together.
Here it is… Kim IDENTIFIED AS AN ALCOHOLIC. So ANY drinking at ANY time is an alcoholic action. You are not magically cured of alcoholism and then you can start drinking again & it be classified as a binge drinker. It’s not chlamydia.
and a bit deranged.
I don’t think Sequoia said that. And I don’t even think KIM said that. Except one time in a private reunion interview in an attempt to get back on TV. But clearly she didn’t believe it.

You’re a regular mama lion my dear. It’s truly touching. XOXO
Kim most certainly said she was an alcoholic, are you kidding me? And Sequoia said that binge drinking on the weekends is NOT a relapse. I don’t care if she claims she is an alcoholic, I was repeating what she was stating. Maybe I’ll go around and tell everyone I’m right because I’m an alcoholic and it will be fine because I identified as one. GTFOH.
That being said, I don’t binge drink on the weekends or ever because binge drinking is not fun. Drinking throughout the day and keeping a steady buzz is though. So does that make me a functioning alcoholic anyone? Alcoholism is a disease, I don’t identify with it even as a joke. Lush is a preferred word. Maybe I misread where Sequoias comment was directed but it certainly sounded as though she was saying Kim’s drinking on the weekends is merely binge drinking and not a relapse when it most certainly is. Seriously, Tamara I love you and your site but you can be so hot and cold with who you choose to side with. Like it’s ok for you to tell someone they are wrong or stupid, but no one else. You know what sequoia said and you know what she meant. Your defense of her is the very opposite of what you’ve said in multiple other posts.
Kay, If you haven’t noticed when it comes to the HWs I am hot and cold. Same for commenters. BTW, Sequoia is a HE, and a recovering alcoholic so I submit to his opinion on such matters. And I like you both a lot. And I think you have misinterpreted what he is saying.

He? I can’t tell genders. Oh and either way how do YOU know what I’m in a position to say or not say? Sounds like YOU are in no position to tell ME what I do and don’t know because everyone heard Kim talk about being an alcoholic multiple times. We’ve even had blog threads about it. I’m stunned with the hypocrisy right now.
And I”m a gay man…. You got that wrong too. Your batting 1000 toots.
Apparently I’m not the only one who didn’t comprehend your post, but thanks for the first insult to my intelligence. Let’s see how many you can make.
Who are you trying to kid. This can’t possibly be the first time your intelligence has been called into question. I’ll bet you’ve been hearing that all your life.
#2. And no, I actually have not. Since you have a broad spectrum of my life and intelligence you must be such an expert. Please stop, I found your comment about Kim drinking on the weekends but remaining sober for extended periods of time not being a relapse extremely alarming. That is all. Have a nice evening.
HE NEVER SAID THAT!

Also, your own reading comprehension should be called into question because obviously I was referring to this post and not my entire life. I’m not always right, I’m sometimes lazy which is why I’m not a Wake Forest University graduate as my entire family would prefer me to be, i don’t know everything, I grew up with 2 brothers so I was naturally called stupid or some crass variation most of my life. I don’t need a gay man behind a computer screen validating me, I just thought it was amusing that you’re going there.
Kay, I totally think you are misinterpreting things.

OMG your an idiot. A week sober is not sobriety. Kim is an alcoholic who has never had sobriety from my point of view. You’re ranting on about chlamydia and all sorts of other shit which makes little or no sense at all. I’m always amazed when people like you put their crazy right out there to amuse the rest of us.
My advice to you is this; The best way out of a hole you’ve dug is to stop digging.
Of course she’s with Monty. That’s where the really good drugs are. #Imnotdrinking.
Sorry does #RHBH attach to other house wives?
OH My God! Oh this can’t end well. I thought Monty was living in someone’s guest house after Kim gave up her rental.
Monty never lived with Kim. Kim would stay at Montys with him when he was in town.

Thank you for the correction.
When Monty uses #HWBH does that then place his twitter or instragram under the other tweets or instagrams of Housewives of Beverly Hills? I don’t belong to Twitter or Instagram
Thank you
I get the sense that Monty is Kim’s rock these days. If true, I hope that Monty’s needs are not being usurped by the needful black void that is Kim’s addiction and diminished mental health.
At this point, Kim is likely not trusting anyone else. TT’s right. She’s headed for a huge fall when Monty finally succumbs. I only hope that she has other support systems in place when that happens.
I hope Kim outlasts Monty but I’m scared something bad will happen to her sooner rather than later.
((no bad intention to Monty at all))
I know their daughter is an adult but I feel terrible for her. Her Dad is fighting an incurable illness and her Mom is sick too. Thank God she has a supportive husband.
As someone else stated, I don’t see where anyone has taken advantage of Kim. I have no clue who he is referring to.
This is going to be terrible! #fixitJesus
He’s her #1 enabler, following the script that poor little Kim is just used and abused and taken advantage of. Surprising she ever left him, he must have stepped out of line at some point.
When you think about it, their daughter has it so rough with her father dying and her mother spinning out of control and spiraling downward. Poor thing will have no parents. She needs to create her own family with her and her husband and his family. I really wish her well. Its funny as in ironic to fight about what an alcoholic is or isnt. I think there is differing opinions. And some peoples livers and such have more tolerance than others. But I would say that if alcohol is getting you in legal trouble and ruining your relationships and such , then its a problem. Thats my bar at least and KIm certainly meets it.
I think Kim is still not ready to get sober-I know, I know, it’s not a revelation. I’ve been sober a long time. Anyone in the early stages of soberiety knows that getting into a relationship is severely frowned upon-most of us can barely function and get outta bed the first year, let alone handle a relationship-they tell you not to even get a pet-just concentrate on yourself, start dealing with all the pain inside that you’ve desperately avoided thinking about all your life and go to meetings. I see someone who’s trying to avoid thinking about herself by hooking up with Monty. She’s setting herself up for failure and I bet everyone (family, friends) around her can see it. I felt empathy for her for a long time-until she made a fool of herself at her daughter’s wedding-then she lost me…
They are definitely at some place above the ocean in the top photo–which explains the warm clothes.
Monty is in remission. Kim got her 30 day chip. They just rescued a unicorn from the faerie land magical creatures rescue home in Malibu.
Okay okay, I am being cynical.
I’ll record Sharknado so I can fast forward to Kim’s entrance.
Is Brooke speaking to either of them?
Anything I have to say about this wouldn’t be nice at all. As TT has said before, this is not a place for spewing only hate. This story pisses me off more than anything. What we’ve got here is a terminally ill man, and a woman with a severe substance abuse problem lying, both to each other and the whole world too. Why the fuck does he put #rhobh in his posts about Kim? She’s not on the show anymore. Right?
At least Monty’s posts are more coherent now. His sentences are more complete than they were in the past. Maybe he’s using less of his pain medication? And it’s very sweet of him to want to protect her from all of her haters. If I write anymore it’s gonna get ugly. So I’ll stop. Now. Like right now…………..Aaaaaaaaargh!
To me, Monty looks very thin in the first picture. Also, are they at the “whatever facility” in Malibu? I see the ocean in the background. I’ve said all during the season that this is going to be a hard fall for Kim when Monty dies. Her addiction will tell her that it is reasonable to use to numb the pain. I have a really bad feeling that Kim may not survive if she really isn’t in some sort of therapy. Perhaps I do not give her enough credit, but I can totally envision the drama that will be Kim Richards when Monty passes. I feel sorry for Brooke.
Why is a grown man hash tagging? Ridiculous.
Not only does Monty have the good drugs, he will be her excuse to use.
Instead of being grateful for the marvelous life she was given, it will be poor Kim surviving all her tragedies.
Is he the only enabler she has left? He’s been her excuse in the past, and you’re right, calipatti, he’s perfect for an excuse to use. Anytime.
This is so sad. I am guessing she is alone. Monty is the only person left talking to her. He is trying to build up her self esteem and confidence. .I guess. Leaning on him will be like quicksand. I feel sorry for all of them
Where’s her BFF Brandi?
Lisa, I wonder if Brandi’s blaming her “friendship” with Kim, in part, for her dismissal. It certainly looked like a friendship of convenience. What can she hope to offer someone with Kim’s issues, other than to enable her self-pity and sense of martyrdom?
One good thing to happen for Kim, at least I hope, is that she recognized Brandi’s solicitations were as phony as her face.
Kim’s children felt that Brandi was a toxic influence on their mother. Maybe Kim agrees.
Sad, sad, SAD! For these two, it seems that living in denial is a comfy place that they prefer to spend a lot of their time in. If not ALL the time! Alcohol sucks! I have a brother who is a ‘functioning’ alcoholic and our relationship is broken until he gets sober. I feel for her kids, they must be mortified at her behavior at times. Especially the older daughter…I cant imagine my mother losing her marbles in alcohol at my wedding. She must have wanted to crawl under the cake table. Hope she gets IT together, I really do!
Yikes. This is strange and sad. As always, I wish them the best.
Youre never prepared for a loved ones death, i have only sympathy for Kim and since Kim makes Monty happy, im glad Kim is there.
*sigh
Sad! What a sad situation. Monty and Kim are both terminally ill as far as I’m concerned.
Clearly we can see that Monty is indeed taking whatever “pill” kim was on at the poker party, as Meghan would say, hashtag delusional hashtag insane. Can someone get an order to have her committed?
OMFG
About 80% of the time I see a strange couple and can’t figure out why they are together, it has something to do with access to drugs.
In this case, I don’t get what either sees in the other.
I do believe that Kim is used to having “relationships” for drugs and that this is what is going on here. I also believe that Monty has always had a “thing” for Kim. She was his “in” to a life he would never have known otherwise. He went from being the son of a humble grocer to flying around on the Hilton’s private jet. That can be an intoxicating experience.
They’ve both made their beds. Hopefully Brooke will have the tools to make better choices.
I dont believe anything is really going on. I really think this is Monty trying to help Kim drum up interest to get back on BH for next season. That is why he is always tagging the show. More importantly, I think he is trying to keep her motivated about projects coming up and excited to keep strong and stay the course.
This may sound horrible…but may he is worried that after he goes, Kim will quickly follow. So he wants her to be ‘busy’ and have projects ongoing to keep her ‘above water’.
If Monty is trying to get Kim back on the show, he really is an idiot. Going to drinking parties for a living is no place for a newly sober woman, AND the show is already filming. That ship has sailed.
Y’all need to understand that everyone people do on reality shows is not about storyline. If they weren’t fuckups in some way they would not be on the show.

Oops. I screwed up my name. Now in moderation hell.
If Monty still has access to pain patches, this is very dangerous for Kim.
Enabler. Period.
I think their relationship has been built on codependence. I think his drug of choice is gambling and why he lives on proceeds from his trust fund. They have to dole it out a little at a time.
I finally figured this cuckoo situation out! Kim hijacked his page, thus the change in grammar etc. also the #rhobh makes more sense if it’s Kim
Also, the pics are old, that’s why their dressed for winter in the summer. I don’t doubt she and Monty spent the 4th together but I am smelling bs.
Wow, StorebyStore, you would NOT score well on the LSAT. Your logical abilities are atrocious.

I thought other people had already posted on the reason for a sweater on the 4th here in sunny California. I’m near the coast about 20 miles south of Malibu. The fog bank started rolling in around 2 or so that day. As usual, we also got a strong afternoon breeze that day around the same time. A sweater in the afternoon isn’t unusual, even in July.
Monty appears thinner and frailer, so it sure seems like these are fairly new pics.
Oh my gah, Brooke needs to commit both of them. What the eff.
I want to know what he’s holding in his hand behind his back.
Monty deleted the kissing photograph.
Interesting…
