Throughout her time on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Kyle Richards has found herself in the middle of a lot of drama. But this season, the drama is a little different because it looks like the tables have turned and Kyle Richards is the focus of a lot of the backlash instead of orchestrating it against her cast members the way she's used to.
So, is it any surprise that Kyle Richards revealed that she hasn't been watching the latest episodes of RHOBH?
Kyle Richards says she feels like she was "ambushed" on RHOBH
On her January 21 Amazon Live stream, Kyle Richards opened up about the fact that she doesn't think watching the most recent episodes of RHOBH is good for her anxiety and said that she felt like she had been "ambushed" by her co-stars while filming the current season.
"It’s not good for my anxiety. And it’s been really frustrating and hard to watch when I felt like every time I went into the group, I was ambushed," Kyle Richards revealed on the live stream.
Much of the focus of the current season of RHOBH has been focused on Dorit Kemsley's separation from her husband, PK, and the most recent episodes have been centered on the fact that Kyle Richards was texting PK behind Dorit's back. This caused some major drama with the cast because Dorit and Kyle haven't been on speaking terms, so Dorit felt like it was hurtful of Kyle to befriend her estranged husband.
About her friendship problems with Dorit, Kyle said on the live stream, "I started feeling like even people who I thought were my friends, I had to question."
She went on to say that she had been feeling "depressed" during filming season 14 of RHOBH and acknowledged that she should have stepped back and skipped this season.
Kyle is the only RHOBH diamond holder that has been on the show since the very first season without taking any seasons off, but she acknowledged in her live stream that this should've been an exception and said, "I was honestly depressed at that time. I wasn’t used to being depressed, and I probably should’ve taken the season off, to be honest, but I didn’t."
After the most recent episode featured Kyle leaving a party after showing off her texts with PK -- which showed the two of them talking a lot more than Kyle had originally let on when she told Dorit the two of them were just sharing memes -- and Kyle talked about the fact that she was expecting to feel supported by her friends and didn't.
"I honestly was at a breaking point, and that was it. When you’re going through a lot in your life, you go and you hang out with your friends to feel better," Kyle Richards said on the live stream and acknowledged that her circumstance is different because of the cameras following her life and capturing moments like her trying to spend time with friends to clear her head.
Despite this, she went on to say, "I still thought I would feel supported in some way and I was just hurt."
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs on Bravo every Tuesday at 8 p.m. ET.
