Plot Synopsis

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS follows a group of the most affluent women in the country as they enjoy the lavish lifestyle of Beverly Hills. These women -- heiresses, entrepreneurs and child actresses -- are in the center of it all and they have the mansions, the cars, and the diamonds to prove it. The housewives are: Taylor Armstrong, who moved to Beverly Hills from Oklahoma in 2003, has a young daughter, Kennedy, and survived her ex-husband's suicide in August 2011; Adrienne Maloof, who is part of the Maloof family dynasty that runs an enterprise includes the Sacramento Kings, Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas, Sweeping Palms Entertainment, and Maloof Money Cup; Kim Richards, who is a former child Disney star who retired early to raise her family of four, but she is working on various business endeavors -- and she's Paris Hilton's aunt; Kyle Richards, Kim's sister, who is also a former child actress, has four daughters with her husband Mauricio Umansky, is an avid advocate for the fight against cancer, and has recently opened Kyle by Alene Too, a high-end boutique in Beverly Hills; Lisa VanderPump, who moved to the U.S. from London in 2005, where she and her husband owned 26 bars and restaurants, and has now opened two new restaurants (Villa Blanca; Sur) in Los Angeles while writing for Beverly Hills Lifestyle magazine and maintaining her line of skin-care products called "Epione"; Camille Grammer, a model, actress, dancer, and advocate, who was married to Kesley Grammer for 13 years with a daughter, Mason, and a son, Jude, and was a full-time cast member in the first two seasons, appearing in Season 3 as a "friend of the Housewives"; Brandi Glanville, a former high fashion runway and print model, who is a mother two young sons with ex-husband actor Eddie Cibrian and is an author, appearing in Season 2 as a "friend of the Housewives" while being elevated to full-time cast member in Season 3; and Yolanda H. Foster, the newest Housewife in Season 3, who was born and raised in Papendrecht, a small farmer's town in Holland, and moved to Los Angeles in 1994 with her former husband Mohamed Hadid but recently married music producer David Foster and is a mother to her three children and five stepdaughters -- all while running her own business, Hopelessly Romantic. RHoBH returned for its third season on Monday, November 5, 2012 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo.

Bravo presented the Season 4 premiere of REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS on Monday, November 4, 2013 at 8pm ET/PT, with a two-hour crossover event with VANDERPUMP RULES. In the season opener, Kyle hires Lisa's posh restaurant, SUR, to cater a cocktail party for the Chamber of Commerce at her home, as she celebrates Beverly Hills' centennial. Plus, Brandi, Yolanda, Kim, Kyle and Lisa welcome two new housewives: Carlton Gebbia and Joyce Giraud de Ohoven. Carlton is a straight-talking Brit who sounds like Lisa, at least to Beverly Hills residents, and has a mouth like Brandi. Carlton is married to business mogul David Gebbia, with whom she has three small children. Joyce is a former Miss Puerto Rico, an actress and model married to film Producer Michael Ohoven, and the founder of the "Queen of the Universe" pageant.

THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS returned for its fifth season on Tuesday, November 18, 2014 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo, as Yolanda Foster, Brandi Glanville, Kim Richards, Kyle Richards and Lisa Vanderpump are joined for Season 5 by new housewives and soap stars, Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson. After a sudden and secret departure from Puerto Rico at the end of last season, Lisa Vanderpump is still wary of her formerly close friends, but is beginning to reconnect with Yolanda and Kyle. She has no interest in making amends with Brandi, who is also struggling to move past her own hurt. The ladies all come face-to-face at Kyle's annual White Party and the over-the-top event is bigger and better than ever now that Mauricio's real estate agency is selling houses upwards of $50 million. The social event of the season brings original Beverly Hills housewives Adrienne Maloof, Camille Grammer and Taylor Armstrong back together. As unresolved issues come to the surface, Brandi is faced with making amends with both Lisa and Adrienne at the same event.

Season 6 of THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS premiered on Tuesday, December 1, 2015 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo, with Lisa Vanderpump, Kyle Richards, Yolanda Foster, Lisa Rinna and Eileen Davidson joined by new housewives Erika Girardi and Kathryn Edwards. A friend of Yolanda's, Erika Girardi is a blonde bombshell married to one of the highest-powered, top-earning lawyers in the United States, who happens to be 32 years her senior. Erika leads a rich paradox of a double life, overseeing a breathtaking estate by day and performing as an over-the-top, hit-making, sexy star named Erika Jayne by night. New housewife Kathryn Edwards knew Lisa Rinna twenty years ago when they were both starting to make waves in the LA scene. Now married without children to retired football player, Donnie Edwards who is nine years her junior, the pair leads an enviably stress-free life of fun and excitement, splitting their time between Brentwood and San Diego. This season, Yolanda's struggle with Lyme disease continues as she goes to extremes in search of a cure, which leads the other women to question her actions. Longtime friends, Lisa Vanderpump and Lisa Rinna, are also in the crossfire as gossip and secrets erupt into a deeply personal conflict between the two. New to the group, Kathryn tries to befriend Erika, but they quickly become embroiled in their own drama and sparks fly when they start speaking the truth. Kyle is just trying to keep her head above water while expanding her store, maintaining friendships with the women and dealing with unexpected personal matters. Reeling from the recent death of her father-in-law, Eileen seeks a much needed apology after questions and details about her marriage arise from another housewife. Whether driving Ferraris in Italy, staying at a glorious house in the Hamptons or receiving VIP treatment at the world's tallest building in Dubai, nothing will keep the Beverly Hills housewives from shedding tears and hurling accusations while still keeping up impeccable appearances.

The seventh season of THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS premiered on Tuesday, December 6, 2016 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo, as Erika Girardi, Lisa Vanderpump, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Eileen Davidson are joined by new housewife Dorit Kemsley and friend Eden Sassoon. Lisa Vanderpump's friend Dorit is the glamorous and charming wife of Paul 'PK' Kemsley, a wealthy English businessman turned high powered talent manager representing the likes of '80s icon Boy George and soccer superstar Pele. A mother of two young children, Dorit balances the demands of overseeing her husband's company while parenting alongside her many nannies. Eden Sassoon, a friend of Lisa Rinna and the daughter of late style icon Vidal Sassoon, is expanding her own salon and Pilates business in an effort to continue her father's legacy. Having overcome a battle with alcoholism, the free-spirited and outspoken Eden is committed to having fun and looking for love when she is not fulfilling her parenting duties as a single mother. This season, Lisa Vanderpump attempts to keep her head held high as she navigates challenging friendships with those whom she believes have treated her badly in the past. Erika Jayne's career continues to soar with a new music video and a headlining gig in Greece, while Erika Girardi takes an emotionally surprising trip to visit her mom in rural Georgia. Always on the move, Kyle steps into her new stilettos as a TV producer, expands her retail business to NYC, and is forced to fend off damaging words from a new acquaintance who tries to meddle in her very personal business. Eileen struggles with grief after the recent loss of her mother and questions her tumultuous relationship with Lisa Vanderpump. Meanwhile, Dorit finds herself embroiled in conflict with Erika when a simple question of social etiquette turns into an assault on one another's character. The newest housewife soon clashes with Lisa Rinna after an alleged joke spirals into a series of hurtful accusations that causes sparks to fly. And never one to silence her opinion, Lisa Rinna's famous lips get her into hot water when she questions a former housewife's behavior, ultimately reopening old wounds and causing a dramatic rift within the group. Whether boating along the coastline of Mexico or visiting one of the world's largest Buddhas in Hong Kong, nothing stops these housewives from speaking their minds, revealing their truths, and calling out each other's lies in the opulent world that is Beverly Hills.

Season 8 of THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS premiered on Tuesday, December 19, 2017 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo, as Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Lisa Vanderpump are joined by new housewife Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave and friend Camille Grammer for a season of lavish adventures, uncontrollable laugher and confrontations aplenty. Running her successful fitness and nutrition accountability business, newcomer Teddi moves through life with a strict ethos that she rarely strays from, even if this leads to differing opinions with some of the ladies. Friendly face Camille returns with a new outlook on life and is finally able to entertain the idea of remarrying, but when she struggles to get her "sexy" back, she turns to her friend Lisa Rinna for advice. This season, the ladies are busier than ever, juggling life at home and in the boardroom. In addition to wrapping production on her series "American Woman" and expanding her retail business, Kyle is at a crossroad when she has to decide whether to renovate or move out of the home where she's raised her daughters. Dorit gives herself just a couple months to re-launch her swimwear line, which proves to be a nearly impossible task. Erika pours herself into Erika Jayne's meteoric rise, back in the recording studio and opening up in shocking ways as she writes her autobiography. Meanwhile, Lisa Rinna is a focused "momager" to her two model daughters, who are poised to be the next "it" girls, but struggles to keep them grounded as they continue to travel the world and grow up very fast. Lisa Vanderpump is knee-deep in rescue dogs, as her new business, Vanderpump Dogs, continues to thrive, but will she be able to do it all once she also takes on editor of a magazine? From casual lunches to luxurious escapades, there's no doubt that living this large has its ups and downs, but these housewives have their famed zip code - and then some - in the palms of their hands.

RHOBH's ninth season premiered on Tuesday, February 12, 2019 at 9pm ET/PT on Bravo. Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Lisa Vanderpump are joined by new housewife Denise Richards and friend Camille Grammer for a jaw-dropping season sprinkled with exhilarating highs and shocking lows. The epitome of a working mom -- perfectly blending her carefree California attitude with the glamour of a Hollywood actress -- newcomer Denise uses her very-direct demeanor to carve out a place amongst the opinionated group, which she finds is both a blessing and a curse. This season, the stakes are higher than ever for each of the ladies, and while there is no shortage of laughs, they are forced to navigate a string of confrontations that could change the dynamic of the friends group forever. Following her brother's recent passing, Lisa Vanderpump puts all her energy into her family, work demands and maintaining a positive attitude. Kyle is settling into her new house after a well-publicized robbery and sending her daughter Sophia off to college, all while trying to determine the future of her Beverly Hills clothing store. Feeling like she's found her mojo, Dorit is expanding her swimwear line to include a lifestyle brand, but working against tight deadlines makes her realize she may have bitten off more than she can chew. Meanwhile, Erika takes the ultimate leap of faith - and financial risk -- when she embarks on an Erika Jayne National Tour, hoping her fans will show up to support her. As her business flourishes into a multi-million dollar empire, the always-on-the-go Teddi must adjust to the newfound pressures of running her company while simultaneously maintaining her supermom status. Lisa Rinna begins to wonder if acting still excites her, while coping with an empty household, as her husband is constantly traveling and her model daughters are getting ready to leave the nest. Camille is prepping for her wedding day and though she is more than ready to leave the past behind, moving forward might not be as easy as she had hoped.

Bravo premiered the tenth season of RHOBH on Wednesday, April 15, 2020 at 8pm ET/PT on Bravo. Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, and Denise Richards are joined by actress Garcelle Beauvais and a new friend of the housewives: socialite Sutton Stracke. As the ladies attempt to manage the challenges of work-life balance and continue to travel the globe in style, they are forced to navigate ever-changing dynamics within the group. While new friendships are formed and old bonds are strengthened, some relationships are left to crumble. Beverly Hills mainstay Kyle Richards finds herself busier than ever, juggling between time well-spent with her family and mounting work demands. Determined to dive back into her acting career and launch a new clothing line, she questions whether she can truly have it all. Now an empty-nester, Lisa Rinna must deal with unexpected circumstances around her daughters' independence while simultaneously supervising their modeling careers. Dorit Kemsley may have bitten off more than she can chew with a new house, an expanding swimwear line, and new business venture that finds her redesigning the interior of an existing restaurant. Meanwhile, Erika Girardi basks in the glory of her rising career when she tackles her biggest project yet: starring in a Broadway musical. Having cemented a place for herself among loyal dance club fans, Erika wonders whether they will follow her to a more mainstream gig. Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave is growing in more ways than one. Managing a booming business while being present for her family, the always-in-control accountability coach adjusts to yet another added pressure - that of being pregnant with baby number three. Denise Richards enjoys the best of both worlds after landing a dream job that allows her to spend quality time at home with her three daughters and new husband. When a familiar friend and a shocking rumor cause the women to question her, Denise is left to defend herself. A busy single mother who also happens to be an in-demand actress in Hollywood alongside her long-time friend Denise, Garcelle Beauvais quickly finds a place for herself amongst the ladies. Confident and unapologetic, she is not afraid to speak her mind even if it means ruffling a few diamonds along the way. Lisa's friend and socialite, Sutton Stracke, is newly-divorced and opening a high-end boutique in town. Though the ladies appreciate Sutton's unique style, her outspoken and quirky personality might be more than they can handle.

Season 11 of THE REAL HOUSEWIVES OF BEVERLY HILLS premiered on Wednesday, May 19, 2021 at 8pm ET/PT on Bravo, with Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, and Garcelle Beauvais all returning for a new season. Plus, resident southern socialite Sutton Stracke also returns -- now, as a newly minted housewife. They're joined by two newcomers: housewife Crystal Kung Minkoff and friend Kathy Hilton. The women are ecstatic to expand their social bubbles after months of isolation at home. This elation is short-lived, however, when Erika Girardi shocks the group with news that she is filing for divorce from her husband of 21 years and is suddenly entangled in a web of legal proceedings. Needing the support of her friends now more than ever, Erika instead finds herself fielding questions from the women who are at odds about whether they can stick up for her. Kyle Richards struggles with the realization that her daughters are growing up and her impending empty-nest status. In Kyle's mind, the pressure she feels to keep her family close now falls onto her oldest daughter Farrah to get married and have children of her own. Lisa Rinna takes advantage of being home with her husband Harry, but her biggest challenge seems to be finding quality time with her daughters, both now in serious -- and very buzzy -- relationships. When she is finally ready to release her long-awaited lip kit line, Rinna Beauty, Lisa worries that the timing may work against her with everyone wearing masks. Always looking to stay one step ahead of the game, Dorit Kemsley dives into new endeavors and takes on the task of designing a line of fashion-forward wedding dresses. The challenges of working from home take its toll, however, as her kids are home-schooling with a tutor and her husband PK is occupied with work of his own. Garcelle Beauvais realizes that having it all just might be possible, but she has zero down time. Never one to slow down, she splits her efforts between raising her teenage twins, doting on her grandson and searching for the man of her dreams, all while stepping into her dream job hosting a daytime talk show. Southern Belle Sutton Stracke looks forward to a fresh start in a new phase of her life, recently sending her daughter off to college and moving into a new home just down the street. With the new place in need of renovations, Sutton suddenly finds herself a tenant to some very familiar landlords. No stranger to Beverly Hills' most elite social circles, Crystal Kung Minkoff quickly finds her footing amongst the ladies. A strict and opinionated mother of two married to Hollywood heavyweight Rob Minkoff, Crystal works as hard as she plays and does not suffer fools gladly. Kyle's sister, the utterly fabulous Kathy Hilton, is by Crystal's side to help her navigate the group. Sharing a storied family history with Kyle, Kathy is the undisputed queen of the 90210 and -- much to the women's surprise -- a prankster at heart always looking for a laugh.

RHOBH returned for its twelfth season on Wednesday, May 11, 2022 at 8pm ET/PT on Bravo. Returning housewives Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, and Crystal Kung Minkoff are joined by housewife Diana Jenkins and friend Sheree Zampino, who are new to the season, but well-established in the glittering 90210. Resident socialite Kathy Hilton also returns as a friend. This season, the women attempt to balance their ever-evolving friendships with the demands of family life and growing business ventures, but a string of shocking events proves that living this large is more than meets the eye. In true Beverly Hills fashion, however, nothing can keep these ladies away from a good time. There is no shortage of laughs and libations, as they jet-set their way to luxury in Aspen and Punta Mita, Mexico. After intruders break into Dorit Kemsley's home in a traumatic and life-changing attack, she begins working through the healing process with help from her friends. All but one, that is, whose lack of sympathy leaves ripple effects amongst the group. Sutton Stracke is finally settled into her dream home and ready to play hostess extraordinaire. While she hopes that swiping right will lead to the perfect man, conflicts with the group make her want to swipe left on some of the ladies. Erika Jayne is looking for a fresh start, despite ongoing legal pressures and rumors aplenty in the press following her divorce. When her friends grow concerned that she has gone too far in her quest to move forward, tensions boil over. Lisa Rinna's world is rocked as she loses a beloved member of her family. Attempting to cope with her new normal, she struggles to keep her emotions in check and her friends are on the receiving end. Reaping the rewards of her hard work, Garcelle Beauvais buys a beach house to enjoy with family and friends. Still, she realizes that long hours dedicated to her talk show and writing her memoir are taking a toll on her relationship with her teenage boys. Having found her footing with the group, Crystal Kung Minkoff takes a more honest approach to expressing her feelings to the ladies. Honesty might not always be the policy, however, and she quickly realizes that the secrets she has held onto may cost her some hard-earned friendships. Much like her friend Crystal, Diana Jenkins is a formidable match for anyone who attempts to cross her. A Bosnian war refugee who married into an astonishing banking fortune, she is no stranger to Beverly Hills' most elite circles. Following a traumatic miscarriage, Diana is focused on having another baby to complete her family. Kyle Richards is thrilled at the promise of grandchildren when her oldest daughter finally gets engaged. Just as everything seems to be falling into place, lingering family drama intrudes on her happiness. On cloud nine following her daughter's lavish wedding, Kathy Hilton reconnects with the ladies. This elation is short-lived, however, when simmering resentments with her sister surface. One of Garcelle's best girlfriends and ex-wife to a prominent Hollywood actor, Sheree Zampino knows the inner workings of this larger-than-life town. Never the wallflower and unafraid to speak her mind, she quickly forms strong opinions about her new friends.

Season 13 of RHOBH premiered on Wednesday, October 25, 2023 at 8pm ET/PT on Bravo. Housewives Garcelle Beauvais, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Crystal Kung Minkoff, Kyle Richards, and Sutton Stracke return, and they are joined by new housewife Annemarie Wiley, a friend of Kyle's and a force unto herself who doesn't suffer fools gladly. In the aftermath of last season's turbulent ending, the women find themselves attempting to navigate their fractured friend group. When Dorit enlists a spiritual guru to help them find their way back, the ladies confront their issues head on and begin to mend hurt feelings. Grappling with the demands of family life and growing businesses, however, they quickly realize all might not be what it seems in the picturesque 90210. Kyle Richards is a diamond under pressure, struggling to cope amid her most challenging year yet. With her 27-year marriage in turmoil and her relationship with her sister in limbo, Kyle reaches her breaking point after the tabloids - and those closest to her -- question her budding friendship with a well-known country singer. Determined to reclaim the self-confidence she lost during her marriage, Southern socialite Sutton Stracke takes her professional life by the reins. Needing a bit of guidance in the romance department, however, she turns to one of Beverly Hills' top dating coaches to get to the bottom of her one-date woes. When Sutton takes Kyle to task over setbacks in their friendship, tensions among the group take a turn for the worse. A focused Erika Jayne eyes a career comeback, and she works to rebuild her life despite ongoing legal battles brought on by her now estranged ex-husband. Things are finally looking up when Erika lands herself a hard-earned Las Vegas residency, but bubbling self-doubt due to a four-year performance hiatus has her questioning whether she can pull it off. Garcelle Beauvais has cracked the code to success in Hollywood, starring in a film that she also executive produces for the first time. When one of her teenage boys unexpectedly confronts her over her parenting style, however, Garcelle finds herself in uncharted territory. Wondering if she's doing it all wrong, she attempts to change her approach with both her sons. Dorit Kemsley continues to deal with PTSD caused by her home invasion, which proves especially difficult after she's robbed again. On top of this, she and PK attempt to work their way back from an issue that almost cost them their marriage. Crystal Kung Minkoff has found her voice within the group, holding her own after one of the women questions what she stands for. She soon finds she can't win them all, however, when her need for control gets the best of her and threatens her relationship with her brother. Introduced to the group through her friend and neighbor, Kyle Richards, newcomer Annemarie Wiley is a force to be reckoned with. A certified registered nurse anesthetist who thrives under pressure and knows her facts, she's not afraid to call out the women when they speak out of turn. Going head-to-head with Sutton and Crystal over a few questionable comments, she quickly finds her footing with the ladies. The ladies jet-set their way to Spain, Ojai and Las Vegas, not letting anything get in the way of their good time. Friends and familiar faces -- Denise Richards, Camille Grammar, Cynthia Bailey and Larsa Pippen -- also occasionally join in on the fun.

Host Andy Cohen joins Garcelle Beauvais, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Crystal Kung Minkoff, Kyle Richards, Sutton Stracke and newcomer Annemarie Wiley as they revisit an emotional Season 13 that saw thrilling highs and unexpected lows. The reunion concludes with a surprise appearance from familiar face Kathy Hilton, whose presence draws mixed reactions from the ladies. Kyle recounts their difficult road to reconciliation and what it took to work through past wounds with her sister.

Two weeks earlier (Wednesday, February 28, 2024), in Part 1, friendly face Kathy Hilton made a surprise appearance. In the midst of shocking headlines and hurt feelings, the diamonds of Beverly Hills come face-to-face for a tense reunion. Kyle addresses Erika's past comment about wanting Andy to "eviscerate" her on the couch. Dorit confronts Kyle about an ominous text message she received and the current state of their "close" friendship. Garcelle challenges Dorit and attempts to burst her bubble in order to get through to her. Annemarie swallows her pride when she apologizes to Sutton, but Crystal proves to be her most difficult patient yet.

The previous week (Wednesday, March 6, 2024) at 8pm ET/PT, Bravo premiered Part 2 of the three-part Season 13 RHOBH Reunion. The reunion continued as Sutton and Kyle's issues came to a head, jeopardizing their friendship like never before. The moment the conversation turned to Sutton's finances post-divorce, Annemarie offered her opinion on the situation. When Dorit addressed rumors about her marriage and revealed details on her latest robbery to the women, Garcelle found herself in the hot seat for her questionable comments. As Erika celebrated her victorious comeback, she realized that Crystal wasn't so quick to let go of her past.
