Kyle Richards ‘CHRISSY TEIGEN SHOULD BE A HOUSWIFE!’

Tears, tantrums and fights – Kyle Richards has been through it all during her nine seasons as a Beverly Hills housewife. But her fight with Lisa Vanderpump is easily one of the hardest things she’s had to film. Here, Kyle spills all to New Idea ...

Your fight with Lisa is a huge focus of this season. What was it like for you?

I was in a very difficult position. When I was asked by the women what I really thought [of Lisa], I found myself thinking, “Oh my God, if I don’t tell the truth because I’m protective of Lisa and my friendship, I’m going to look like a liar to these women and I just can’t do that.” I’m not a liar. So I had to be honest. That’s when it all went south.

Lisa looks to be caught out in her lie. Will she ever own up?

I mean, I don’t know. I really don’t. I’m not sure!

What about the reunion? Is she going to turn up?

I cannot even imagine. Nobody knows [if she will]. She hasn’t shown up for any filming …

You guys will all need security! We’ve had security at the reunions before, it’s so crazy!

This is the ninth season – surely there will be a 10th! They haven’t announced it but I would imagine so. Our ratings are very high!

Your 10th season trip should be to Australia! I always say that – I have a feeling we actually will [go to Australia]. I’ve never been and I really want to. And I know we have a lot of fans in Australia! Celebrities also love Real

Housewives. What’s been your best celeb encounter? A lot of these big celebrities are fans of the show because they don’t like to go out in public; it’s not fun for them. So they’re home, watching. Chrissy Teigen literally tweets about our show every day, she’s always watching. She’s so funny. So I love that Chrissy loves the show. She should be a Housewife! Oh my God, trust me, I’ve already said that. I would give anything for Chrissy Teigen to be a Beverly Hills Housewife! That would be the best!
