Kathy Hilton + Crystal Kung Minkoff Join RHOBH Season 11!
Now that Denise Richards announced her departure from an extremely drama-filled season 10, a new space was left open for a new Beverly Hills housewife.
It appears that the slot has been filled with Kyle Richards sister, Kathy Hilton. Read on for more about new cast members Kathy Hilton + Crystal Kung Minkoff…
CelebnReality247.com reports that Kathy Hilton is officially joining “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” but she won’t be holding a diamond.
Instead, Paris and Nicky Hilton’s mom will be cast as “a friend of the show,” according to reports.
Kathy Hilton and Bravo finalized the deal last week Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, paving the way for her to make regular appearances. She will not be saddled with the responsibilities of a full-time cast member, such as attending the reunion shows.
Hilton, the sister of current reality star Kyle Richards and former star Kim Richards, has appeared briefly on “RHOBH” several times before.
Speculation about Kathy’s potential involvement in the show is nothing new. In fact, last year rumors circulated that she could become a full-time member of the show.
Kyle said on “Watch What Happens Live” as rumors surfaced:
I would be happy if my sister joined. I’ve had one sister on, why not have another sister on.
Richards added that Kathy is “one of the funniest people there is.”
Kyle said:
She’s a practical joker and she’s very, very funny…so I think she’d be an amazing Housewife actually.
Kathy’s news sparks a busy week for the 90210 franchise. On Oct. 26, it was announced that Crystal Kung Minkoff, the founder of Real Coco and wife of filmmaker Rob Minkoff, was joining the cast of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
