‘RHOBH’ Star Kim Richards Gets New Role On Primetime Television Show

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards became famous for her various roles in movies as a child, so many were wondering when she would be returning to the world of acting. It is no secret that Richards has battled her own demons with alcoholism and pill addiction, but she has now gotten clean, and she is determined to stay sober. And Kim says that her role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has helped her stay away from alcohol.

Now Kim Richards is returning to the small screen. This week, it was revealed that Richards had actually been filming a guest appearance on the hit show Revenge. Apparently, Kim will appear on the show on the January 25 episode of the show.

According to a new Hollywood Life report, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards will only appear as a guest on the show, and despite reports, she will not be playing herself. Instead, Richards will get into character for this new role.

Many have speculated who Kim Richards will be portraying on the show, since she won’t be playing herself. In fact, Richards will be playing a woman named Stephanie who is a member of the Southhampton Beach Club. It sounds like Kim will be one fancy lady.

“Kim will not play herself as some might expect, but ‘Stephanie, a society lady and friend of Victoria’s, who is a member of Nolan’s Southampton Beach Club,'” reveals a report about her upcoming guest appearance.

Even though some people only know Kim Richards for her role on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she has actually been acting since she was just a little child. And it sounds like Richards is ready to get back into it now that one of her daughters is married.

Kim’s daughter, Brooke, recently got married during an episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills to her long-time boyfriend. Richards decided to have the weeding sooner because of Brooke’s father’s ailing health.

But it is good that Kim Richards is returning to work. Even though she is filming The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she isn’t necessarily getting the support she is seeking to stay sober. According to the Inquisitr, Kyle Richards recently brought Kim along for a wine tasting. It may not have been Kim’s choice for a fun day out.

What do you think of Kim Richards’ return to scripted television?
