Kyle Richards addressed the “legal letter” from her sister Kathy Hilton over Kyle’s American Woman TV show. The series (based on Kyle’s unique upbringing with their mother Kathleen) reportedly triggered another Kathy feud.
Last season on Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the sisters fell out after Kyle believed Lisa Rinna’s controversial allegation that Kathy had a meltdown in Aspen.
“The family stuff with my sisters always affects me really really intensely,” said a tearful Kyle in a sneak peek of next week’s episode, shared by @jaysrealityblog on Twitter.
“You know I had an issue with my oldest sister, Kathy,” she continued, alluding to their drama last season. “But what came out of that is we’re not speaking, again. But that’s been happening for 10 years.”
According to Kyle, their first “falling out” occurred when Mauricio launched his real estate agency (after leaving the firm of Kathy’s husband).
“I just felt like every time there was something that should be perceived of ‘That’s amazing, you know, I’m proud of you’ — there’s never any of that,” said the star, who claimed Kathy “got mad” when Kyle wrote her book because she thought it would be “something that it wasn’t.”
She also said “there was an issue” when Kyle opened her own store.
“And then when I sold [my scripted show] American Woman, I got like, you know, a legal letter,” she added, referring to a document written by Kathy’s attorney – informing Kyle that she would not use Kathy or her family in the series.

Though the sisters are now in a better place, Kyle’s comments may trigger another years-long feud. Will Kathy forgive the current season – which was filmed before they reconciled – or will history repeat itself?
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
