Monty passed away after a long battle with cancer in late January. He and Kim had one child together, daughter Brooke Brinson. While their marriage was short, Kim and Monty remained good and close friends throughout the years. On Season 5 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Monty was shown walking Brooke down the aisle at her wedding and dancing with Kim. When Kim’s addiction issues became headlines in the media after she was arrested twice and went to rehab multiple times over the summer of 2015, Monty regularly defended Kim via his Instagram page. He routinely said that she was better and was going to prove everyone wrong.
While Kim Richards isn’t now a starring housewife on Real Housewives, her sobriety and addiction issues, as well as her strained relationship with Kyle Richards, have continued to be a central story line on the current season. On Tuesday night’s episode, during a group brunch at Kathryn Edwards’ San Diego home, Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson tried to fill Kathryn, who has just joined the show, on what happened in the past with Kim. Lisa R. called her past drama with Kim “vicious” and “vile.”
“It was some vicious, vile stuff that went on.”
Kyle tried to cut Lisa R. off.
“This is really uncomfortable for me. I don’t like the ‘vicious’ and ‘vile’ and ‘problems’ — I don’t want to hear that about her.”
Kyle ended up leaving the table and talking to Lisa Vanderpump elsewhere. Kyle told Lisa V. that she and Kim, after months of no contact, were texting one another on the road to reconciliation.
Back at the table, Lisa R. used the word “scary” in reference to her Season 5 fights with Kim. Kathryn, who has never met Kim, said that Lisa R. was being a tad melodramatic by calling Kim “scary.” Eileen, wondering why Kathryn was being so defensive over Kim, asked her what her story was. Kathryn revealed that she’s very sensitive about addiction issues and talking about people who battle it because her own father battled addiction and committed suicide when she was 13-years-old. The other women consoled Kathryn as she broke down in tears and said that they now understood where she was coming from.
In her blog post recapping the episode, Kathryn Edwards reiterated that she got protective over Kim.
“Maybe I hang on words too much and give my two cents when it isn’t solicited, but when it comes to certain things, I can’t help it. I get protective, and even though I don’t know Kim Richards, I felt like I had to stand up for her in what was a dark time in her life. Who would choose to carry the weight of addiction?”
Yet Lisa R. remains unconvinced when it comes to Kim’s true nature. In her interview, Lisa R. went so far as calling Kim a “lunatic” and “rabid dog.”
“Kim Richards is an addict, she’s a f—ing lunatic. She comes at you like a dog, like a rabid dog.”
In her blog post, Lisa R. explained that she wasn’t calling Kim “scary” but saying that there were some very scary moments for several of them last season.
“When I said the word ‘scary,’ I meant that there were some very scary moments for quite a few of us last year because there were.”
As previously reported by The Inquisitr, Lisa R. claimed during her recent Watch What Happens Live appearance that a good friend of Kim’s recently reached out to her to thank her for bringing to light Kim’s addiction issues and forcing people to talk about it.
