Crystal Kung Minkoff claimed Kyle Richards’ “game” on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is “intentionally misunderstanding” people to make them “look stupid.” Cynthia Bailey then reacted, revealing more details behind her own past drama with Kyle.
On an early season of Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip, Cynthia and Kyle had major tension. At the time, some fans took Kyle’s side, though Cynthia later shared that she was grieving the loss of her spot on Real Housewives of Atlanta during the trip.
On Humble Brag, Cynthia shared that she felt “very misunderstood” on RHUGT.
“But you know what, though? That’s exactly [what it was like] when I was filming with [Kyle],” said Crystal, Kyle’s former co-star on RHOBH. “It was like, ‘You’re intentionally misunderstanding me to make me look stupid.'”
“That’s her game. That is the way she does it,” Crystal added, via @housewivesfromahousewife on Instagram. “It’s brilliant.”
As for her own experience, Cynthia suggested that Kyle would act this way and then “10 minutes later” ask, “Are we good?”
“You’re like, no, b**ch,” said Crystal. “We’re not good.”
“We’re not good,” agreed Cynthia. “Like I’m still processing, and I’m pretty sure I’m still mad at you.”
Last month, Crystal called out how castmates in the new season are hazing newbie Amanda Frances over her ‘money manifestation’ business.
“[Amanda]’s an easy target,” said Crystal at the time on My Friend, My Soulmate, My Podcast. “She’s annoying. I don’t believe in her business. Honestly, I do think Amanda’s incredibly annoying. … We’ve established that, but … The way they’re questioning her and her business, like, ‘I don’t really get it,’ and it’s kind of like how they questioned me about my feelings. It’s a very gaslight-y thing to do.”
“It’s not a scam business. She’s very clear, like, ‘If you want me to tell you, you can financially prosper, give me 100 bucks.’ Dude, I would take 100 bucks!” she went on. “But they just are relentless, and I think that sucks. Also, it’s kind of boring for the show. It’s already been nine episodes. Enough already. You think she’s a scam artist. Say it and move on.”
