Brooke Brinson’s Wedding Update: Kim Richards Is ‘Not Even Sure’ If She Relapsed In Mexico


Brooke Brinson’s mother, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kim Richards, may or may not have relapsed at her wedding in May.

One month prior to Brooke Brinson’s Mexico wedding ceremony with husband Thayer Weiderhorn, Richards was arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel and charged with public intoxication, resisting an officer, battery on an officer, and trespassing. A short time later, she appeared on Dr. Phil, where she admitted to relapsing months prior and agreed to get help for her addiction to alcohol. However, while she entered a treatment facility weeks after her arrest, she left early to attend the wedding of Brooke Brinson and failed to return by the agreed upon date. Right away, it was reported Richards had fallen off the wagon yet again.

During an interview with Entertainment Tonight via a July 23 report, Richards seemingly confirmed the news.

“I was super stressed out and I looked on the ground and there were, like, two little margaritas, and I think I drank one. I am not even sure.”

At the time of Brooke Brinson’s wedding, Richards had reached 30 days clean, but because she had been previously prescribed an anti-anxiety prescription drug, things quickly took a turn for the worse.

“They put me on a medication called Ativan. After 30 days, they were like, ‘You can’t go to your daughter’s wedding. You really shouldn’t.’ I’m like, ‘I am going to my daughter’s wedding.'”

According to Brooke Brinson’s mother, the mixture of Ativan and alcohol could be a “dangerous mix,” and because of that, many guests at the wedding, which was attended by the likes of Kathy, Paris, and Nicky Hilton, as well as Kyle Richards and her family, found her to be “belligerent” after the ceremony took place.

“That mixture of that much with Ativan… That’s what I probably drank.”

Brooke Brinson and her family have been through a lot with Richards, and while she’s likely to promise she will be clean from here on out, she simply cannot do so.

With over 30 days sober, Richards recently began attending Alcoholics Anonymous meetings in hopes of making her sobriety last.

“I walked in and I was like, ‘I’m Kim and I’m an alcoholic. And I’m a newcomer. I did it not to humiliate myself, but I did it with pride.”

As the Inquisitr previously reported, Brooke Brinson’s mother recently claimed Bravo had asked her back to The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for Season 6. But according to Radar Online, her claims had no truth.
