Kathy Hilton is denying rumours Kyle Richards is planning on leaving RHOBH after Season 12, according to a new interview.

Rumours have been running rampant in recent weeks that Kyle is planning on exiting The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after Season 12 wraps but if Kathy is to be believed, it’s all just conjecture.

“I think she does [tend to question her future on the show],” Kathy told E! News in an exclusive interview over the weekend. “She works so hard, and you finally sometimes go, ‘Well, maybe this is it.’ But I think she’ll be back.”



This season, Kyle has faced fan backlash for playing mediator and for an embarrassing preview clip released by Bravo that showed her and Dorit Kemsley laughing about Erika Jayne swearing at Garcelle Beauvais’ minor son in an earlier episode. After Instagram got a hold of the clip, Kyle was forced to release multiple apologies and statements and has remained pretty quiet ever since.

In addition to all of the social media drama, Kyle and Kathy are expected to be embroiled in a family feud as the later episodes air, with the RHOBH Season 12 trailer teasing Kathy on the outs with quite a few of the women.

Fans seem to also be questioning Kyle’s position on the show with the exits of multiple OGs in recent years but with ratings for RHOBH as high as they are, we don’t see Bravo making too many changes to the cast ahead of Season 13.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays on Bravo.
