During Season 10 of RHOBH, Kim Richards encouraged Brandi to share a confession with their former co-stars – her alleged affair with Denise Richards.

In August of 2021, Brandi shared an update on their friendship. She said that she and Kim weren’t speaking after an explosive “hot tub fight,” per People magazine.

The outlet notes that during a November 2020 edition of her Unfiltered podcast, the former model revealed she was on the outs with Richards. At the time, she gave the reason of a rumor spreading online that Kim and Brandi had a threesome with former co-star Carlton Gebbia.

Why Brandi couldn’t deal with Kim Richards any longer

Did the two mend fences with the new year? Not according to Brandi. She was a guest on the Two T’s in a Pod podcast. The podcast is hosted by two former Real Housewives stars – Teddi Mellencamp (RHOBH,) and Tamra Judge (RHOC.)

Brandi confessed to the hosts that her friendship with Kim Richards “kind of fell off” in the last few years. Despite the previous dust-ups, she claimed that “nothing major happened” to end their friendship.

Surprisingly, Brandi revealed that she talks to Kim’s sister, Kyle, more than to Kim.

Furthermore, the former model thought Kim was too dependent on her.

“During COVID, I had to take care of my own mental health. And I couldn’t babysit other adults,” – Brandi Glanville, Two T’s in a Pod podcast.

Heavy reports that Brandi didn’t feel the friendship was “reciprocated” by Kim. She added, “I got to the point where if she wasn’t going to reach out, I wasn’t going to either, you know?”

The outlet notes that Kim Richards has been leading a more private life and hasn’t commented on where her friendship with Brandi stands.

The Bravo host invited many current and former Real Housewives to the celebration of his impending baby boy’s arrival via surrogacy. However, Brandi Glanville didn’t make the guest list.

She did admit to being “bummed” not to get an invite, but claims she understood. She joked, “If he invited every ex housewife ever they would have had to rent out the bitcoin center!”
