Kyle Richards Expresses Desire to Mend Friendship With Dorit Kemsley

At the launch event for The Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th in New York City on August 4, Kyle Richards said she wants to repair her friendship with Dorit Kemsley if she returns to RHOBH.

Richards' comment follows years of tension between the pair, which escalated during Season 13 when Dorit accused Kyle of prioritizing other friendships. The dispute continued into Season 14 after Richards revealed she had remained in contact with PK Kemsley, Dorit's estranged husband. Following the release of Richards' memoir, Unburdened, in June, the two had brief communication before ceasing to speak again.

Despite their strained relationship, Richards emphasized her genuine investment in restoring their bond, stating "It's sad to me because, you know, I did care about her, and I do care about her and her family. I just feel like we're both going through so much and that we would have been much better off leaning on each other."
