Real Housewives of Beverly Hills OG, Kyle Richards, must be clutching her pearls right about now, or diamonds, I should say.
According to a shocking new report, Kyle’s days on RHOBH may be numbered as sources say she no longer brings any original storylines, and producers are favoring her sisters, Kim Richards and Kathy Hilton’s, antics over their youngest sibling’s.
The source tells Life&Style Magazine, in their latest print issue, that a “major shakeup” is on the horizon for the franchise dishing, “Just because Kyle is the last remaining original cast member doesn’t mean she’s safe from the chopping block.”
“She’s always attacking the other ladies instead of coming up with her interesting storylines of her own, and it hasn’t gone unnoticed by Bravo producers or fans,” the source continues.
The outlet also reported that producers are potentially looking to promote Kathy to a full-time position as well as bring back OG Kim.
The source added, “[Kim’s] a hit with the fans, and Andy Cohen loves her too.” Adding “[Andy’s] already offered Kim a huge paycheck to return.”
There could be some truth to these rumors. As we’ve previously reported, Kyle has recently talked about leaving the RHOBH franchise at some point and the difficulty of filming with her sisters. A statement she quickly backtracked on saying the internet “ran with it” and that she’s made no such decision yet.
Also, Kim has stated that she has had phone calls with Andy in the past talking about her potential return.
“I did have a phone call. Andy Cohen called me uh, last week. So maybe that could be one of our discussions. He said, you know, a lot of people have been asking for me to come back, and he said he thought, ‘I’ll go right to the source.’, Kim previously said in a snippet of an interview shared by All About the Real Housewives on Instagram
As for Kathy, the waters are still a little murky. It took quite some time for her to even return to RHOBH for a second season in a “friend of” role, allegedly over salary demands. How much more money would Bravo be willing to cough up for Kathy’s possible full-time position.
