Kathy Hilton‘s time on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has come to an official end.
Radar Online reports that the fan favorite kathy hilton is officially NOT returning to RHOBH for season 13. Filming for season 13 of RHOBH wrapped last week with Kyle Richards’ epic and infamous white party.
We now learn that Kathy did NOT film any scenes for season 13 of RHOBH. Let’s dig into why Kathy decided to stay away from the Bravo cameras this year.
A source close to the RHOBH cast reveals:
“Kathy [Hilton] has been busy filming Paris In Love Season 2 and did not have the time to film both. She also doesn’t want to fight with Kyle [Richards] on camera.”
The insider notes:
“Kathy wanted to keep away from Kyle [Richards] and did not want to drag Kim [Richards] into their ongoing feud.”
Kyle and Kathy‘s sister Kim, who is an RHOBH OG, was spotted filming for several events during season 13 of RHOBH. Kim’s role on the show for season 13 is unknown. She may be simply popping up as a guest or may have a more substantial role as an official friend of the Housewives.
Despite Kathy Hilton not returning to RHOBH for season 13, she and Kyle are taking baby steps to one day reconciling. The two recently attended a bridal shower for Kim’s daughter, Whitney Davis, where they posed together for several group photos. This is progress considering the two have barely spoken since filming the RHOBH season 12 reunion in October of 2022.
The source said:
“Kathy did recently see Kyle a few weeks ago and kept things civil at a bridal shower for their niece [Kim Richard’s daughter] Whitney.”
The tension between Kyle and Kathy stems from the drama that took place during the season 12 cast trip to Aspen, CO. The drama, which mostly occurred off camera, seemed to start when Lisa Rinna decided to drink Kendall Jenner’s 818 Tequila over Casa Del Sol tequila, which the Hilton family are investors in. Kathy felt snubbed and got angry at Kyle for not defending her.
Later on that night, the ladies headed to the Caribou Club, where Kathy began to unravel, accoridng to reports. Rinna decided to take Kathy home when she had a huge meltdown. Claims about this meltdown were then leaked to the press, making Kathy look bad. She later apologized to Rinna for her behavior, but no one ever confirmed what really went down behind the scenes in Aspen.
Erika Jayne and Lisa Rinna refused to stop speaking about Kathy’s meltdown, which upset Kyle. Eventually, the drama was rehashed at the season 12 reunion. Kathy and Kyle’s sitdown ended in tears and with their relationship on rocky ground.
RHOBH is expected to return for season 13 in late 2023.
