Bravoholics, hold on tight because Kim Richards might be making her triumphant return to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills!
The 57-year-old diamond alum teased her potential comeback to the 90210 franchise on Thursday, revealing Andy Cohen personally called her to make the request.
Taking to Instagram Live, Kim revealed that Cohen asked her point-blank if she was interested in joining her sisters Kyle Richards and Kathy Hilton on RHOBH in the near future. The cast has already started filming Season 12 and the drama hasn't stopped.
"I did have a phone call. Andy Cohen called me last week," Kim told her followers. "He said, 'You know, a lot of people have been asking for me to come back and he said he thought, 'I'll go right to the source.' So he did."
She continued but failed to give her answer to his question.
"I do love Andy a lot. He's great. It was time for him to put his baby to bed so he cut the phone call short," she said, "but we definitely had it!"
Interestingly enough, RadarOnline.com caught up with Kim in September, and she told us a whole different story.
On the red carpet at The Abbey's Christmas in September event, the ex-RHOBH star made it clear — if she was asked to come back to the popular franchise, she'd say "no."
Showing up to the event in plaid to match her older sister Kathy, Kim stopped to chat with RadarOnline.com and dropped the bombshell.
When asked if she'd ever consider making a return to the show, she didn't hesitate before replying, "Probably not," as Kathy looked on in approval of that decision.
Before there was a Kyle/Kathy sister duo on the show, there was Kyle/Kim.
Kim was an OG, joining RHOBH with Kyle during season one. She was a full-time cast member for five seasons, but she was struggling with her sobriety on and off-camera.
Fans cheered her on but witnessed her relationship with Kyle deteriorate in front of Bravo cameras.
Kim went from full-time to just a friend on the reality series during seasons 6 and 7. After going MIA for season 8, she made cameos in 9 and 10.
