When Kyle Richards freaked out at her older sister, Kim Richards, for her drinking problem on the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills last season, we thought their relationship might be over for good. Never before had the Bravo series reached such an emotional and raw level. That said, Kyle and Kim say they are now mending their rocky relationship.
“[It's] a day-by-day thing that we work on [because] what happened was extremely painful,” Kim, 46, told People at Bravo’s upfront presentation in Los Angeles. “It’s not going to cure itself over night and hopefully we will grow past all that happened and move forward and get stronger and stronger.”
Kyle, 42, says she’s come to an understanding of what sparked their nasty feud and knows she needs to watch for triggers, so it doesn’t happen in the future.
“When you lose your parents like we have, I turned to my sisters to parent me at times and I feel like at times I need to parent them,” Kyle said, adding, “But it’s not my job and I have to love her, step back and say, ‘I’m not your mom.’”
