Kyle Richards begged and pleaded to keep her job on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills — and it worked! A source close to production for Bravo's hit show tells RadarOnline.com exclusively that "as of right now, Kyle has not been asked to leave Real Housewives."
As RadarOnline.com reported, producers reevaluated her role when it was announced that she would be producing a new show on TV Land with sisters Kathy Hilton and Kim Richards. But the insider said they ultimately decided she could stay on the show that made her famous.
"If Kyle does decide to leave to focus on this new project full time, she will be leaving on her own accord," the source tells RadarOnline.com.
"Essentially, she will be quitting the show, rather than getting fired."
The 46-year-old was on the chopping block after the drama that ensued following Kim's recent arrest while intoxicated at the Beverly Hills Polo Lounge on April 16. But Kyle was quick to do damage control.
