Kyle Richards and Dorit Kemsley are currently in conflict due to trust issues and accusations regarding financial judgments and personal behavior.
Their friendship has deteriorated, particularly after Kemsley accused Richards of discussing her spending habits and mental state with others, leading to heated exchanges during the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” reunion.
When asked backstage at the RHOBH Season 15 reunion taping back in March, the ladies were each asked who they would go to for fashion advice from their cast. The answer was Rachel Zoe. “I mean, if I don’t choose Rachel, then I’m crazy,” Dorit shared.
Kyle mirrored that sentiment — and also shouted out the style of all the 90210 ladies. “I would go to Rachel Zoe for fashion advice. You know, everyone has their own style, though, which I like about this group. I like that not everybody is the same. I don’t think I can say one person’s style is so much better than the others. It’s all different. And that’s what makes everyone unique. And I love that. Imagine if everyone dressed like Rachel or everyone dressed like Sutton. How boring would that be? No,” she said. “You have to have all the different flavors.”
The topic of matcha was also brought up, and it turns out they share a similar go-to order for the beverage, which made a cameo this past season. Dorit noted that “there isn’t” a go-to order for her.
Kyle shared in her own interview, “I don’t like matcha… I’m not a matcha fan.”
While they certainly experienced emotional moments during the RHOBH Season 15 reunion, Kyle and Dorit have each expressed hope to one day be able to fix their friendship.
On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show, Kyle expressed optimism about the future of her and Dorit’s friendship, ahead of the Season 15 reunion. “I would hope that there’s been enough time that has passed that Dorit is in a better place, that she’s taken the time that she needs,” Kyle said. “And that she would be open to mending things and not come in guns blazing.”
As for her hopes for the Season 15 reunion, Dorit shared on the After Show, “I care about Kyle, I do. I have for a very long time. I hope I’m never, ever too jaded that I don’t want to move forward.”
In fact, she added pre-reunion, “I can get over my issues with everyone. … If we both share that feeling, I’m always gonna say, ‘Great.’ I love a ‘let’s get over it.'”
