Kim Richards Alcoholic,kim richards, lisa vanderpump, real housewives of beverly hills, adrienne maloof, housewives of beverly hills :The teaser trailer for the upcoming Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion features Andy Cohen asking former child-star Kim Richards point-blank about a rumor that briefly circled around the internet a few months: “Do you have a drinking problem?”
It’s hard to make-up what really happened because of the editing, but it appears that this question followed Lisa Vanderpump saying “I think there are issues that need to be confronted, that haven’t really.” Andy asks “What are those?” and Lisa replies “Maybe you should ask Kim.” Again, this could be editing, but it looks like once Andy asks about the drinking problem, Kim bursts into tears.
On the episode of Real Housewives of Beverly Hills that aired January 20, 2011, Kyle Richards accused Kim of being an alcoholic after a night of emotional boozing at Taylor Armstrong’s 39th birthday party. “You are a liar, and sick, and alcoholic. You are an alcoholic. That’s right. I said it and everybody knows.”
At then end of the episode, we got this update: “Kim’s family checked her into rehab . . . A week later, she checked herself out. She is taking her life one day at a time.One rumor even suggested that Kyle had Kim check into rehab recently. If this is the case, then admit your problems and get some help Lima Bean! You deserve to be happy!
Kim’s charmed life as a child actress hasn’t been all roses. She complains on the show of not being socialized as a child because of her work schedule, and as a young adult she had to endure the shocking tragedy of dealing with the murder of her fiance John Collett.
