Last week, the extended finale of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills revealed that Kyle Richards told Erika Jayne that she was glad everyone saw Kathy Hilton's meltdown. Kyle and Kathy's sisterly squabbles are a major trending topic in pop culture at the moment. However, they are also old news on RHOBH. From greenlighting American Woman to getting disinvited from Nicky Hilton's wedding, Kyle's feud with Kathy and the Hilton's goes way back. With a long history of conflict comes a long history of making amends. At this point in the feud, Kyle's determined to put everything aside.
It's not surprising that Kyle would revel on some level in the world seeing Kathy's less-than-perfect side, especially after Kathy's outstanding popularity in her debut season on RHOBH. Her popularity has not waned amid Aspen-Gate, thanks to Kathy's PR team. Her public image is staying strong, from the conga line at BravoCon to endless Twitter chatter supporting her. However, the extended episode was a potential threat to the peace. In the clip, Erika said, "When all of this was going down, Kyle said to me, I'm glad that people are seeing this so" before Kyle cut in, "that was between us, by the way, Erica, thanks." Kathy, who's also feuding with Lisa Rinna, might be madder than Kyle after claiming she defended Erika last year. Erika, like a deer in headlights, said she did not know that but got the memo now.
Erika Didn't Affect Kathy & Kyle's The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Feud
This wasn't the first time someone brought a one-on-one conversation to the group, and they got mad. Erika knows more than anyone how frustrating it can be when a cast member tries to out personal business. Erika was distraught last year when Garcelle Beauvais revealed that Tom Girardi still regularly calls Erika. Hopefully, Erika's blunder will give her more empathy for Garcelle in RHOBH season 13. Erika was probably somewhat tipsy when she revealed Kyle's comment about Kathy, as she truly seemed caught off guard when Kyle called her out. If Erika and Garcelle, who were feuding, can find some common ground, so can Kathy, Kyle, and Erika.
However, the revelation didn't seem to do much damage. Kyle and Kathy were very friendly at BravoCon while keeping their distance from Lisa Rinna. It looks like the sisters' are making amends or, at the very least, presenting a unified front. Erika's comment also wasn't that wild, considering Kyle had already spoken extensively in her interviews, acknowledging that Kathy was acting out at the Caribou Club.
Time will tell if the unfiltered comment puts a rift between Kyle and Erika. The Fox Force Five has several internal political alliances. At the end of the day, Erika and Lisa are best friends, first and foremost, and are the most unfiltered and unapologetic from RHOBH. Erika's unfiltered nature was at the heart of the conflict, but hopefully, Kyle wasn't too mad.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
