For The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Kyle Richards, stars come and go in the 90210 (as her Season 15 tagline suggests) but then there have been a few friendships that, like diamonds, last forever.
The mom of four and RHOBH OG shared who from seasons past she still keeps in touch with during her interview with The Daily Dish at BravoCon 2025. She named alum Lisa Rinna as one of her buds, and cited Teddi Mellencamp as “one of my best friends.” But the list didn’t end there for Kyle. “I mean, Adrienne Maloof has invited me to her Halloween party, but I couldn’t go,” she recalled.
Kyle said she was also on good terms with Eileen Davidson, who held Housewife status for Seasons 5, 6, and 7, and later appeared here and there. “I love Eileen, but, you know, I don’t see her really,” Kyle explained. “The people I see the most, obviously Teddi, I see all the time. And Lisa Rinna.”
Read on to learn the latest about Kyle’s friends and their busy lives.
Where is Lisa Rinna now?
The soap opera actress and fashion icon Lisa Rinna is putting pen to paper with her upcoming memoir, You Better Believe I’m Gonna Talk About It, a title to match one of her famous one-liners from the series. In it, the mom of two will detail her career from Days of Our Lives to her eight seasons as a diamond holder, “but she’s also opening up about what it means to grow older in an industry obsessed with youth, the lessons she’s learned about reinvention, parenting a daughter with a chronic illness, keeping her well-documented marriage alive and healthy, and being forced to grieve in public after the loss of her mother and beloved Beverly Hills fan favorite, Lois,” per the book’s bio.
Fans can pre-order the book ahead of its Feb. 24 release, and they can catch up with Lisa and her husband, Harry Hamlin, on their shared podcast, Let’s Not Talk About The Husband.
What’s the latest in Adrienne Maloof’s life after RHOBH?
Adrienne, who remains on good terms with ex-husband Dr. Paul Nassif, is an empty nester now that 19-year-old twin sons, Colin and Christian Nassif, are enrolled at Southern Methodist University and the University of Southern California, respectively. Their eldest, 21-year-old Gavin Nassif, pursues filmmaking at San Diego State University.
Their being away, however, gives the dog mom ample opportunity to transform her Beverly Hills mansion for the holiday season, utilizing plaids and pine for a Ralph Lauren-inspired theme. As she teased on Instagram on Dec. 1, “Behind the scenes of bringing the holidays to life. From garlands to giant elves, every detail gets a little love.”
Where is Eileen Davidson today?
Eileen and her husband, Vincent Van Patten, celebrated 22 years of marriage earlier this year. Like Adrienne, Eileen became an empty-nester when seeing her son, Jesse Van Patten, headed off to California State University-Northridge.
The Emmy Award-winning soap star recently enjoyed “Thanksgiving weekend fun” with the family (which includes Vincent’s sons from a previous relationship), as seen on Instagram, and recently spent time in Hawaii.
Details on Kyle Richards and Teddi Mellencamp’s friendship today
Kyle and Teddi have kept incredibly close throughout Teddi’s battle with stage 4 cancer. Last month, Kyle — who urged Teddi to see a doctor before her initial 2022 melanoma diagnosis — told The Daily Dish that the two of them were “literally like family.”
“You know, and just going through what she’s gone through, [it] just brought us even closer,” Kyle said. “I mean, what I was going through first, and then what she was going through with her separation, and then having this curveball come at her, like, this was just really mind-blowing, you know, to think that someone that you’re so close to and love so much is going through something so scary.”
Recently, Kyle joined Teddi and Lisa Rinna along with returning Housewife Erika Jayne, bringing the band back together for a “Fox Force Five” reunion (minus Dorit Kemsley) and proving their cool-girl bond remains intact.
Check out where Kyle stands in her ongoing rift with RHOBH alum Lisa Vanderpump.
