There were more than the regular amount of tense moments during the The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion show that filmed last week, when Kyle Richards had a meltdown over talk of her sister, Kim’s drug use.
Kim was not there to defend herself as she was undergoing treatment for drug and alcohol addiction, as she was forced to do by Bravo executives, as RadarOnline.com was first to report.

However, Kyle was more than willing to defend her older sister, and the result was explosive drama in its purest form.
During the reunion, the ladies hashed out the controversies from the second season that encompassed Russell Armstrong's tragic suicide and fallout from Eddie Cibrian's ex-wife, Brandi Glanville, calling Kim a "meth addict."

"Once Andy [Cohen] brought up the fact Kim was absent because she was in rehab, Brandi immediately rolled her eyes. Things quickly escalated from there and Kim's sister, and fellow housewife, Kyle jumped once again to her sister's defense,” a show insider tells RadarOnline.com. “Brandi was basically telling everyone, ‘see, I told you so, I wasn't wrong, and I shouldn't have to apologize for pointing out that Kim is a junkie'. There was no love lost between Brandi and Kim this season, and Kyle was relieved that her sister, wasn't exposed to Brandi's venom.
"Brandi was out of control," the source continues. "She was swearing at the other women and being obnoxious."

Kim, who is Paris Hilton's aunt, is currently seeking outpatient treatment, and according to the source: "[She] is hoping she doesn't have to come back for season three. Kim has had enough of the antics of the show and all of the drama. Kyle would definitely come back for a third season though.”

Kicking Kim when she is in rehab isn't cool. Although Brandi was correct about Kim's issues. But I think Kim would be better off out of that environment and I hope she gets well. She seems like a nice lady with a big problem.

Kyle is an immature, bottom-heavy twat! I wouldn't wipe my ass with a page from a book she "wrote". The woman condones cheating and lying and from what she's shown this season, she's a fan of bullying. She's a vile little PIG!!

Kyle, just say it. Your sister is an addict. This is typical behavior of an addict. They will hurt their friends and family and not care or realize. Their disease runs their life, their addiction always takes priority. Addicts attract addicts.

You're absolutely correct. She has every right to be saddened & angry about it but constantly jumping to Kim's defense certainly doesn't make things any better. It only enables her further; making Kim think she has an ally in her addiction!!
