Kyle Richards may have said she's not talking about Morgan Wade on this season of RHOBH, but that doesn't mean the rest of the cast has to go along with it.
Notably, there have been multiple times during this season that Garcelle Beauvais has tried to get Kyle Richards to open up about her personal life and explain what's going on with her and her country star friend, but the RHOBH OG has been resistant to it every time.
Now, Kyle Richards has called out her Real Housewives of Beverly Hills co-star for being different in "private conversations" than she is on camera because of Garcelle Beauvais' questions about Kyle Richards' relationship with Morgan Wade.
Like so much of the drama in the Real Housewives world, this all started at a cast dinner.
This time, the RHOBH cast was at a cast dinner in St. Lucia when Garcelle Beauvais asked Kyle Richards why she expects the whole cast to "tiptoe" around her "situation" with Morgan Wade. According to Garcelle Beauvais, her friendship with Morgan Wade has been very public, so it makes no sense for Kyle Richards to suddenly insist that she's not brought up on the show and refuses to talk about what's going on with her.
This issue is complicated because on one hand, Kyle Richards' explanation for not wanting to bring Morgan Wade up on The Real Houswives of Beverly Hills this season makes sense: she signed up to be a reality TV star, but the country singer didn't. So, it's not fair to talk about her on a show that she never asked to be brought up on.
At the same time, it's not as though Kyle Richards has a history of respecting her co-stars' boundaries and avoiding things that they don't want to have brought up on camera. Most notably, in season 10, Kyle Richards was one of the main people trying to force Denise Richards to talk about whether or not she had an affair with Brandi Glanville and would completely ignore any boundaries that Denise Richards tried to put up about the conversation.
In response to this double standard, Kyle Richards said on an episode of Watch What Happens Live that people should have learned from her behavior toward Denise. When asked about it, she used that season 10 behavior as a reason that Garcelle shouldn't have told her to "be a lesbian" while encouraging her to be more open about herself with the public.

Still, Kyle Richards wants her co-stars to respect her boundary this time and on the RHOBH After Show, she accused Garcelle Beauvais of behaving differently in private versus on-camera when it comes to talking about Morgan Wade.
"When Garcelle and I have spoken in private, she's been totally understanding of my position that I'm in in discussing this. In front of the other ladies, though, she wants to bring it up and bring it to the table. It just doesn't match our private conversations," Kyle Richards said on the After Show about the St. Lucia dinner conversation.
Meanwhile, Garcelle Beauvais doesn't agree that this is the way it went. According to her, people "are not dumb" and can see what's going on, so Kyle Richards' refusal to just open up about her personal life doesn't make any sense.
On the After Show, she explained her perspective and said, "Even if she said to me, 'I don't want to talk about it right now,' and then later pulled me aside and said, 'This is why I don't want to talk about it in the group,' I would have understood."
Considering Kyle Richards has barely opened up about the reason for her split from Mauricio Umansky despite it being a major storyline on RHOBH, it doesn't seem like we're going to get any answers about her and Morgan Wade. But Garcelle Beauvais is doing her best to get them anyway.
