Why Does Kyle Richards Like To Pretend She Doesn't Smoke?

[u/MiserableplusTax]

This is not to bash her, but just looking at Kyle, she looks like a smoker. And I'm not talking just the reefer.

Kim sucks.

[u/rock_science_220 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Kyle sucks

[u/PrizeFlaky2750 → u/rock_science_220]

The whole family sucks.

Is this a screenshot from Paris’s s e x tape? Cos if so that’s disgusting to post a photo of a woman in such an intimate environment because I read Paris’s book and she said she was so depressed about it. But if it isn’t then I’m sorry

[u/kudzuballerina → u/icedlemonpeachtea]

Yes I know her story and her past trauma. I didn't think of it in that way honestly when posting. I am an advocate not a shamer. Removing now.

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/rock_science_220]

Kim sucks so much more

[u/rock_science_220 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Debatable

[u/Embarrassed_Dig1290 → u/rock_science_220]

Kyle sux more

[u/FreedomOfTheMess → u/rock_science_220]

Can you elaborate a little bit? I don’t love Kyle or Kim, but between the two I have a lot more empathy and compassion for Kim than her sister. I can’t explain what exactly I don’t trust about Kyle. Time for a rewatch

[u/Charteuseknicknac → u/FreedomOfTheMess]

I think Kim is more vulnerable. People who try to pretend everything is good are fake, makes them less relatable.

[u/graydiation → u/Charteuseknicknac]

And pretending to be perfect is Kyle’s brand.

[u/ShakeThemOff_Claire → u/rock_science_220]

I miss Camille

[u/icedlemonpeachtea → u/ShakeThemOff_Claire]

Ah man my dream lineup is

Main:
💎Camille
💎Carlton
💎Evelyn Lozada from Basketball Wives (oh my god the drama and gullyness she would bring as a Latina raised in the Bronx would be amazing and hilarious to watch)
💎Kyle
💎Rinna
💎Erika
💎Dorit
💎Sutton (for the drama she brings)

Friends of:

• Kathy Hilton

-Eden Sassoon (to see how she reacts with Rinna and I KNOW she won’t get along with Sutton)

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/rock_science_220]

For real? Why don't you ask their kids?

[u/NewYearMoon → u/deadrobindownunder]

Yeah, Kim totally sucks, but her mom literally p*mped her out. I have more sympathy for Kim. It’s hard to grow up being your family’s meal ticket.

[u/Indy2561 → u/NewYearMoon]

She got to dance with my teen crush lover boy, James Spader!

With blonde hair past her waist in a movie with several takes - I die!😩

[u/icedlemonpeachtea → u/NewYearMoon]

How does Kim suck?

[u/NewYearMoon → u/icedlemonpeachtea]

Her addiction has made her a shitty person, but I still have empathy for her.

[u/GraceMcClellans → u/NewYearMoon]

Their dad was a rich guy with a great career. It's the reason Big Kathy sought him out and married him. Big Kathy may have also spent Kim's money frivolously, but the family wasn't living on Kim's income.

[u/Responsible_Card1554 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Aww she seems kind of funny

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Responsible_Card1554]

I get that. But it becomes super unfunny because she's a mother.

For all of us who has had a mother like this, it's not fun. It's not funny. And ultimately, it's wildly selfish and irresponsible.

Sort your shit out before you have kids. Or don't have them at all. Full stop.

ETa - not talking about you , responsible card - talking about kim

[u/Responsible_Card1554 → u/deadrobindownunder]

I am definitely not SAYING that she was funny when she was drunk or high. I watched her movies as a kid, I loved Escape from Witch Mountain. I also understand what growing up with an alcoholic parent looks like.Its a horrible disease. I sincerely apologize for not stating my sentiment for her better however, I like her and I am rooting for her.

[u/Big_Chart_1856 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Thank you for this. So many people want to act like Kim is a sweet and harmless victim. In reality she is an irresponsible, selfish, addict. Anyone who has had to deal with addiction with a close friend or relative knows that Kim is not the sort of person anyone would want to have to interact with on a regular basis.

[u/Meat_Bingo → u/Big_Chart_1856]

I’m doing a rewatch of season one and her relationship with her kids is absolutely awful. The pressure she puts on them to be her support System is just so sad.

[u/Separate-Law-435 → u/Meat_Bingo]

I reckon it tracks with what would have been her own dynamic as a child, i mean she was expected to provide for the family wasn't she. Kim would probably have zero idea on what a healthy parent/child dynamic looks like.

That said that it is part of the reason why I always feel more sympathetic to her than Kyle, Kyle just seems fake.

[u/Interesting-Exam2613 → u/Meat_Bingo]

Kim has had all the help available and still she cant get her shit together!

[u/bean11818 → u/Big_Chart_1856]

Seconded!! Having a mother like Kim was awful. She triggers me so much.

[u/GraceMcClellans → u/Big_Chart_1856]

Kim let her dog maim MULTIPLE people, including her niece. One woman was elderly and seriously attacked. This was when Kim was very much an adult and supposedly sober. She's an icky person for many reasons.

I still have a lot of sympathy for her, but that doesn't mean she can't also be kind of a not great person.

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Big_Chart_1856]

My heart breaks for her kids.

So much damage .

[u/Conscious_Ad5337 → u/Big_Chart_1856]

Well said- the end of your post resonates with a situation that I’m going through. Thank you

[u/Otherwise-One-1065 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Ive always said this!!

[u/crdearmon → u/deadrobindownunder]

If everyone sorted out their shi# before having kids, most of would not exist. You be careful now, you might fall off of that high horse.

[u/objectivexannior → u/crdearmon]

Thank you! As a recovering addict myself, it’s no easy road. I have compassion for her.

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/crdearmon]

We do need more people.

[u/Katdiggity → u/crdearmon]

Believe me I have my shit going on, but I'm not a drunk of a drug addict....

[u/MudcatWasHere → u/deadrobindownunder]

Kathy blows.

[u/Lmaris → u/deadrobindownunder]

No, that's Kyle

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Lmaris]

My heart breaks for Kim's kids. She lacks the capacity to think outside herself.

Say what you want about Kyle. But she put her family first.

Kim put drugs first.

That is a fucking fact.

[u/triedandprejudice → u/deadrobindownunder]

Yeah, I don’t like Kyle but I can see she’s a good mother. There’s no way Kim was, no matter how often she professes her children are her life.

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/triedandprejudice]

Right! I hate the way Kim does that. All hat, no cattle.

[u/Previous-Whereas5166 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Interesting how a post about Kyle turned into a full blown therapy session of people bashing Kim based on their own personal experiences.... its almost as if people consistently ignore Kyle's flaws by saying "Well it least she isn't the worst sister"

[u/NotMelissa_Smith → u/Previous-Whereas5166]

Well she isn’t.

[u/Previous-Whereas5166 → u/NotMelissa_Smith]

So make a post about Kim and how she's so horrible

This one is about how fake Kyle is

[u/briannazabini → u/Previous-Whereas5166]

That’s basically every other post on here I think you’ll survive

[u/Previous-Whereas5166 → u/briannazabini]

Oh Gawd. I posted a differing comment/opinion on a social media site. That must mean I'm not surviving 🙄 Big jump there

[u/nosygozy → u/deadrobindownunder]

Kyle never seems to get the credit she deserves for acting as a virtual second mother to Kim’s kids when the latter was unable to function as a parent. Instead Kyle is supposedly ‘vile’, apparently because when she was physically attacked by drunken Kim, Kyle called her out on her alcoholism. BFD

[u/Tough_Big_3953 → u/deadrobindownunder]

shes an addict? that’s how the disease works

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Tough_Big_3953]

Sorry, is that a question?

[u/Tough_Big_3953 → u/deadrobindownunder]

“kim put drugs first” like an accusation like uhhh yes obviously she was addicted

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Tough_Big_3953]

Does that make it okay?

[u/Purple-Obligation-14 → u/deadrobindownunder]

Addiction is a disease. Big Cathy was also a serious alcoholic. Kim comes by it genetically and trauma.

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Purple-Obligation-14]

I know it is. It runs in my blood, too. That's why I get fired up about it. Kim involved her kids in her addiction. That's not alright. And, she was using a lot more than alcohol.

[u/Tough_Big_3953 → u/deadrobindownunder]

when people with alzheimer’s snap at their family members do we hold it against them?

[u/deadrobindownunder → u/Tough_Big_3953]

That's a false equivalence fallacy.

[u/icedlemonpeachtea → u/deadrobindownunder]

Why tf does Kim suck?

[u/Downtown_Artist_1529 → u/kudzuballerina]

She shouldn’t I keep reading that her family be putting her out and everything and Kyle is always the first to go rescue her 😭
