Kyle Richards fled the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” set in tears.
During Tuesday’s episode, the reality star broke the fourth wall and acknowledged the hit Bravo series after her female co-stars put her in the hot seat.
“I can’t do this anymore, I really can’t,” an emotional Richards, 56, declared. “I’m trying to be in a good place in my life … I’m f–king leaving.”
The debacle went down during a spa day at Bozoma Saint John’s house with Dorit Kemsley, Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, Erika Jayne and Jennifer Tilly.
The ladies were conversing and at one point began berating Richards about a text message she sent to Dorit’s estranged husband, Paul “PK” Kemsley, on the day they publicly announced their separation in May 2024 after nine years of marriage.
Feeling like she was being attacked, Richards made the decision to read the text message out loud.
“I love you and PK and your kids, and you know that. I know that you know that,” Richards told Dorit, 48, through tears. “I’ve been made to feel like I did something wrong — sending a text to PK. So, I said I’m gonna read this once and that is it.”
She then read back the text, which stated, “I know you have a lot of friends. I am also one, if you need me. I’ve never repeated anything you have shared with me and wouldn’t. I will keep sending memes, and I won’t forget the laughing emojis.”
Some of the women questioned Richards on why she told PK she “never repeated anything,” which the “Halloween” star attempted to clarify.
“I don’t mean about regarding you,” Richards said to Dorit. “I think that’s what you’re taking it as. I’m not talking about that. I’m talking about this [the show], OK, which I can’t say because we’re filming and [in] production.”
Cameras then panned over to some of the crew members filming the heated scene.
“That is all I f–king said. Now I am done,” Richards continued. “I’m not going to be made to feel like I’ve done something wrong. I’ve loved you and your family. F–k everybody, I’m done with this s–t!”
Richards left the conversation and began storming through the house as Dorit and Jayne followed her.
“I’m done! I’m not doing this anymore,” she told the two women. “Everybody has bigger f–king problems, and yet this is all they can f–king focus on.”
Richards –– who was appropriately dressed in a bathrobe for the spa day –– called the entire situation “disgusting.”
“Every day to be made to feel like this? Are you kidding? Are you kidding me? I mean, literally, look at all of us. Our age and what we’re doing?” she said while wiping away tears.
“To be confronted like this every day about this stupidity. Everybody, honestly, should be ashamed of themselves. Seriously. F–king ridiculous. I cannot keep doing this. I really can’t.”
Dorit was eventually able to calm down Richards. During their one-on-one conversation, Richards doubled down on the fact that she was referencing production in her message to PK — not that she would “never” tell Dorit anything she had heard from her estranged ex.
However, Dorit still wasn’t totally buying what Richards was selling and continued prodding her about the intentions of her text.
“When you write things like, ‘You know I’d never share anything,’ you know that doesn’t feel right,” Dorit admitted.
“You would say, ‘I’d never say it on camera.’ You wouldn’t say, ‘I’d never repeat anything.’ In other words, what he shares with you, you would never share with me.”
While Richards and Dorit were previously close friends, they’ve grown further apart after Dorit learned that Richards and PK would occasionally chat –– even after their split.
However, Richards has previously denied that they were sending anything salacious and defended herself for sharing the occasional “meme.”
“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo and is available to stream the next day on Peacock.
