Kyle Richards Apologizes for 'Housewives' Brawl with Sister Kim

Bravo's recent season finale episode of 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' wrapped up with a shocking scene: Kyle Richards and her intoxicated sister Kim (both former child actors, and aunts to
Paris Hilton) tore into each other verbally, and just about came to blows inside their limo.
For days, fans of the typically frothy show have been buzzing about the dark episode. Did Kyle (pictured here, wearing pink) really call her sis "insane," "sick," a "liar" and "demented"? Did co-star Adrienne Maloof barely prevent a physical assault?
Now, Kyle is sorry for the blowup with Kim, who has since entered rehab. On her Bravo
blog, Kyle writes candidly about that night, and her bond with her sister.
"The events that transpired that evening were quite unfortunate and should never have occurred on, or off, camera," Kyle says in a statement released to Bravo. "We both said and did things that we regret. My sister and I love each other very much."
On her blog, Kyle says, "You may be thinking, 'You have a funny way of showing it.' And you're not wrong. However, our arguments were never about what was happening at
that moment. My mom used to say, 'They're crying about the apples, but it's really the oranges,' and that's exactly what was happening here."
"After this horrible argument between Kim and I, we didn't speak for a long time. My heart was broken and I suffered an incredible amount of anxiety and panic attacks. Next to losing my mother, this was the most difficult time of my life."
In her blog post, Kyle never indicates whether she's reconciled yet with Kim in person -- although she seems to speak for both when she says, "We want to move forward and put this behind us."
She continues, "It feels so strange to even refer to it as an 'episode.' This is my life. This is Kim's life. I wish we were just characters on television, but this is all too real. That night never should have happened. It was incredibly difficult to go through in the first place and it's even more difficult to watch and relive it."
The Richards sisters will likely relive, or at least address, the controversy on the series' reunion special, hosted by Andy Cohen, airing on Bravo this Thursday, Jan. 27 (9PM EST).

They both and that program represent,the worst of America.
White trash with money.I love this , So does My boyfriend .he is almost 11year older than me .i met him via agegapsin gles.c'om a nice place for seeking age le ss love.which gives you a chance to make your life better and open opportunities for you to meet the attractive young girls and treat you like a king. Maybe you wanna check it out or tell your friends.. Just love it
These so-called housewives could use some sobering up. They certainly do not set any kind of respectable example for society. I suggest my book, SOS Safely Obtaining Sobriety by George Legacy. Surely most of these undignified housewives have a problem. Anyone can use my book to break the cycle of alcohol abuse and dependency. Just search under SOS Safely Obtaining Sobriety The Alcohol Recovery Aid by George Legacy. It works!
Kathy, Paris's mom, is Kyle & Kim's sister. Caught me off guard too when I watched the graduation episode. Kim was the girl in Escape from Witch Mountain back in the 70's. Child stars, explains a lot. Sad. I hope Kim gets the help she needs to get better-her kids need their mom.
Well, since they are older, now we know where Paris gets all of her trashy genes. Poor girl can't help herself. It runs in the Family.
Kim is the only one on the show that isn't plastic and fake.

Not plastic or fake...yup...just a drunk
Well shes a little plastic.. her boobs are fake.. BUT shes the nicest one on the show and i think her sister kyle is a bully. They need to work on themselves and get over the BS. Life is short and they need to find the happiness.
Obviously you haven't watched very closely.
SHE IS A DRUNK SO WHO IS SHE? SAD SAD I HOPE SHE CAN WORK THINGS OUT IN REHAB. SHE SEEMS TO HAVE GREAT CHILDREN. HER SISTER IS OK BUT AM SURE THEY HAVE BEEN THROUGH A LOT TOGETHER..SHE IS A DRUNK AND NEEDS TO GET SOBER..
I noticed since day 1 that KIM is not all there and now everything makes sense, (ALCOHOL) She looks worn out and its very sad. Her sister Kyle is probably one of my favorites on that show because she says it like it is and doesnt put on an act like Camille does. She is a total phoney. Taylor should never have brought that up at her party, but obviously BRAVO told her to stir up trouble and it happened. Kyle should never have let everyone gang up on her sister, including herself, but she did. They have lots behind the scenes that is going on and it seems it has just built up and Kyle finally blew up with this scenerio. Very sad to see two sisters fighting on national tv. We all have dirty laundry in our families. No family is perfect. I hope that they figure it out and work something out.
She should have thought before she opened her big mouth, but I guess it would have not been good for the show unless fights between sisters happen. She thinks she is all that, but she is a skank.

Kyle is extremely controlling and has an anger issue. Maybe she needs to go to rehab to learn how to be a decent person.

Her real problem is that she is jealous of Kim. Kim was more popular and in more movies that Kyle was, and to be honest, most people don't even remember Kyle Richards! We all remember Kim and the many movies she has been in, but her sister, isn't even a distant memory. She has a beautiful family and a fine husband so she needs to stop being so hard on her sister. And telling everyone that Kim is an alcoholic is something that should have never been said. The devastation Kim must have felt at that moment, is enough to last a life time. If I were Kim, it would be a very, very, very long time before I spoke to Kyle, let alone be in the same place as she. With a sister like that, who needs enemies?
How was Kim "clearly intoxicated"? Kim was fine at that party until Taylor dragged her into the same stupid drama about the fight in NYC. The other women, with the exception of Adrienne, totally ganged up on her at Taylor's party. Adrienne and Kim are the only ones I like on that show anymore.

I HAVE ONLY GLANCED AT THE SHOW FOR SHORT PERIODS,,BUT THE ONLY ONE THAT SEEMS DOWN TO EARTH AND KINDA NORMAL IS KYLE..BUT I ONLY WATCHED IT IN VERY SHORT PERIODS,,WHAT DO I KNOW????
Because that fat lipped Taylor is a s-h-i-t stirrer...She started the mess between Kyle and Camille...And she continued to stir it up everytime she could flap her fake fat lips around...She does it because she is one very unhappy wife with a husband who while he is there in human form he basically ignores her needs and wishes...He is the one husband who is not fullfilling his wifes needs as that ditz of a pyshic said about Kyle during that dinner party at Camilles...That boozehound of a psyhic's antenna was pointed at the wrong direction and out of alignment on that one.
kim was not " clearly intoxicated"; these women are trash, kim and adrienne are the only deccent ones. I guess lisa's ok, but she failed miserably that night, she should have done more to help. with friends like these, kim doesn't need any enemies.

I agree, I didn't think she was intoxicated but speaking the truth, I like kim alot on this show she seems very real as the others are very high maintenance, with the exception of Adrienne also, I think she is great too....Kyle is constantly blowing everything out of proportion....all the time...
DOESN'T ANYONE LISTEN TO WHAT IS GOING ON. KYLE AND HER HUSBAND HAVE BEEN PUTTING HER UP IN THE HOUSE SHE WAS IN AND TAKING CARE OF HER. SHE IS JUST ANGRY BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T HAVE THE BIG HOUSE ANYMORE. SHE EXPECTS EVERYONE TO TAKE CARE OF HER.
