Season 13 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills couldn’t have been Kyle Richards favorite to film. There is palpable tension between herself and husband Mauricio Umansky, triggered by Kyle’s recent penchant for tattoos.
She’s not owning up to anything directly, but dropping a lot of hints about putting herself first for once. Even if RHOBH fans didn’t have any updated information since filming wrapped, it would be a red flag for sure. The fact that they’ve confirmed their split post-filming makes little difference in the feeling that something is very wrong.
The fact that Kyle wasn’t transparent with her castmates, and the audience, may be a topic to answer for at the Season 13 reunion, which is due to film at the end of January 2024. At least, Erika Jayne seems to think so.
Erika predicts questions about Kyle’s transparency during filming
Erika speculated about the reunion atmosphere during an interview with Entertainment Tonight. When asked to pick which of her castmates “will have the most to answer for,” Tom Girardi’s ex answered, “Not me, and that, I am really happy about.”
The RHOBH star is referring to the previous reunion where questions about her legal issues were a hot topic.
But this time around, she thinks Kyle will certainly be under scrutiny for failing to be more transparent about what was going on at home. She’s spent over a decade in reality TV, surely Kyle knows how it’s done.
“I’m sure that Andy [Cohen] is going to press Kyle. I think Kyle is going to have a hard time again this year,” Erika explained.
The Halloween Ends star did choose to give an interview to Us Weekly in December 2023, during which she explained why she held back during filming.
“I didn’t feel like sharing it on camera quite yet,” Kyle said.
“I was honest with the [cast]. When they started grilling me, I was like, ‘Why are you acting like I haven’t been honest? I told you it’s the worst year we’ve ever had.’ Did they want me to take them inside my bedroom? I don’t know what they wanted me to do. I felt like people I considered my friends hurt me,” she continued.
Will Andy accept such answers at the reunion, or will he grill his RHOBH favorite further? Only time will tell.
