Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley have been on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for years, and they are probably tired of sharing their drama. Both women spent a long time under Lisa Vanderpump's thumb. Navigating all of that drama definitely wasn't easy, and Lisa ended up jumping ship from the show. With a lingering friendship and alliance, Dorit and Kyle seem to avoid conflict whenever possible.
Dorit was put through the wringer during "Puppygate" in RHOBH season 9. She was dragged through the mud by Lisa for giving up a dog that she'd adopted from Lisa's organization, Vanderpump Dogs. The dog, unfortunately, ended up back at the pound, despite Dorit's intention to place it in a happy home. Lisa acted like she wasn't angry, but she played games all season long so she could make Dorit look bad. When Kyle came to Dorit's defense, Lisa wasn't having it. Kyle couldn't say that she completely believed that Lisa didn't leak a story slamming Dorit to Radar Online, and got kicked out of Lisa's house with an epic "Goodbye Kyle" from Ken Todd.
Since then, Dorit and Kyle have stood by each other. However, they've also gone out of their way to keep their issues out of the limelight. In RHOBH season 12, the first plotline was centered on Dorit's home invasion. The trauma was undoubtedly overwhelming, and while some fans claimed that she was acting, Dorit seemed genuinely horrified by the whole event. With that being said, putting such a life-altering event on camera means that Dorit has already shared a lot during season 12. When it comes to her personal drama, she may get a free pass later in the season, as she's already shared so much. Dorit may have decided to open up about the incident, so there would be less chance of getting pulled into other debacles later on.
Kyle may be wishing that she had a get-out-of-jail-free card now that her relationship issues with Kathy Hilton are about to be fully on display. When it came to returning for season 13, Kyle said that she wasn't sure. The actress turned housewife went back to her career roots with the success of Halloween Kills. It looks like Kathy is about to throw some serious shade at Kyle, and possibly earn a bad reputation with all of the RHOBH. Kyle admitted to E! News, "I always say, 'I don't know,' and each season I think, 'Well, maybe I can do one more. And sometimes I'm just like, 'How can I keep doing this?' Especially when I get really upset, like this last season when we ended."
After over a decade in front of Bravo cameras, Kyle may be ready to move on from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, or at least keep her sibling rivalries away from audiences. Dorit, however, seems like she can keep going for a few more seasons. The rising fashion icon would lose her platform if she left the show. Then again, if Kyle falls, Dorit could go down with her.
