Kyle Richards is unsure if she will return to “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” for season 15.
During an April 8 Amazon Livestream Q & A with fans, the veteran RHOBH cast member was asked when filming for the 15th season of the Bravo reality show will begin and if she has plans to return to the series.
Unclear, across the board,” Richards replied.
Richards admitted that she didn’t watch all of the season 14 episodes and was in the dark during some parts of the reunion taping. “I really had to tune out this season,” she shared. “A few times, they were talking about things, and I didn’t even know what they were talking about. So I guess I missed some big insults about me. I was like, “Oops I wish I could defend myself, but I don’t even know what they said.’”
“I find myself that ignorance is bliss in times like this, and I just have to disconnect when I’m not shooting,” she added.
Last year, the 14th season of ‘The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” began filming in May at a Surrealism ball held at Sutton Stracke’s house. Bravo has not yet confirmed the return of RHOBH for season 15.

Richards is the only RHOBH cast member who has appeared in every season of the show since its debut in 2010. In the past, she has said that she always struggles with the decision to return to the show at the end of each season.
In a January 2025 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, the RHOBH star revealed that her decision is always based on where she is “at” in her life when filming picks back up. Richards admitted that she was intrigued by the idea of hitting the season 15 milestone.
“I always say I never know because it depends on my personal life emotionally — if I can handle it, what my lifestyle is at the time,” Richards told the outlet of her usual return process. “One day, that day will come where I’ll say, ’OK, enough.’ I saw something that said, ‘If Kyle does another season, 15 seasons, she’ll be the longest-running Housewife in franchise history.’ There’s kind of a part of me that wants to have that!”
“And then I’m like, “For what, Kyle?! For what!” she added.
In an April 2025 interview with Parade, Richards said she would make her decision on returning for season 15 in the same way she usually does. “As more time goes on, I did not think I’d be here,” she admitted of RHOBH. “I remember thinking, year five, I’d be out. Here I am going on year 15, so of course, that day will come. It just depends on how I’m feeling at the time and if I can handle it anymore.”
One RHOBH Star Already Announced Her Departure From the Show
The RHOBH cast will already look very different next season. On March 25, longtime co-star Garcelle Beauvais posted an Instagram video to announce her decision to depart the show after five seasons. The mom of three explained that she wanted to focus on her sons and upcoming acting and producing projects that she has in development.
While Beauvais didn’t cite show drama as a reason for her exit, and even teased that Bravo gave her an open invitation to make future cameos, there have been rumors that there was drama after the season 14 reunion taping.
During a March 25 appearance on “Watch What Happens Live,” RHOBH star Erika Jayne said of Beauvais, “She did not take the cast photo with us. So that that a clear indication that ‘I am leaving.’”
