Kim Richards has relapsed after years of sobriety and had to be placed on a psychiatric hold as a result, TMZ reported Friday.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” alum, 60, reportedly got into a dispute with sister Kyle Richards at the latter’s home in Los Angeles earlier this week.
Police were called to the “RHOBH” star’s property to remove the troubled reality star, per the outlet.
Kim had reportedly been given permission to live at the house Kyle owns, but was then rescinded those privileges after family shut her out due to her issues.
When the former child star returned to Kyle’s house Wednesday, authorities were reportedly informed that Kim was not allowed there as relatives cut her off in hopes of helping her get sober again.
In a separate incident in early September, Kim was staying at a Hilton hotel in Los Angeles and reportedly began acting “incoherent” while there.
Police were reportedly called and when Kim allegedly refused to leave the hotel, she was placed on a 5150 hold and taken away via ambulance, per TMZ.
It appears that the incident at Kyle’s residence took place after Kim was released from the hold.
The former Bravo star, who was a full-time cast member on “RHOBH” from Seasons 1 to 5, very publicly dealt with substance abuse issues, as even Kyle outed her as an “alcoholic” in the first season.
However, Kim appeared to turn a corner with Andy Cohen revealing that even Bravo stepped up to pay for the former’s 2011 rehab stay.
“When it was clear that it was a real problem, we wanted to be responsible and we didn’t want to put her in a situation where anything could be exacerbated,” the “Watch What Happens Live” host, 56, shared in the “Diamonds and Rosé” book.
“We considered her family and wanted to work with her to get her better. Bravo paid for her rehab.”
In 2019, Kyle, 55, credited Bravo with saving her older sister’s life, saying on “The Jenny McCarthy Show,” “If anything, being on the show made her accountable and she says that as well.
“She says that it saved her life because you know, there’s nowhere to hide and everyone knows — now anywhere she goes, people know who she is. She can’t get away with anything! So it actually helped her!”
Kim has not been a full-time cast member on “RHOBH” for many years, but she has made several guest appearances in recent seasons.
It’s unclear when exactly Kim allegedly fell of the wagon.
Last June, Kim, Kyle and their eldest sister, Kathy Hilton, were all seen having fun, signing karaoke together for Kim’s daughter Whitney Davis’ wedding weekend.
