Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

She will probably come up with a way to blame somebody.

I'm waiting to hear her explain the battery on a police officer charges with "it was just a little kick"

After watching the last finale episode, I think that Kyle is much smarter and more manipulative than Kim. She's also condescending and selfish but she hides it under a thin veneer of logic and calm demeanor. Kim knows this and is frustrated because she can't fight fire with fire; she's not as good at it as Kyle so she just gets angry.

I'm willing to bet that everyone is right that Kyle financially bailed Kim out in exchange for her share of the house. Kyle took advantage of the situation to benefit herself. When the time came to choose keep the house for Kim's mental health or sell it to buy a desert mansion, Kyle ditched her sister and went for the mansion. Although Kyle had every right to sell the house, was she right to do it? Their relationship will never be healed because Kim will always feel used and betrayed by Kyle. The dog bite situation is just another manifestation of the same problem. She emotionally "needs" that dog. Because of Kyle's actions Kim, once again, can't have what she "needs." Did Kyle need to Instagram that photo? No. This all could have been taken care of without so much scrutiny on Kim if Kyle had kept it under wraps. It's a sad situation all around.

Edited to add: I'm not criticizing Kyle's reaction to the dog bite. Only her decision to blast it on social media.

Or maybe Kyle is just tired of putting up with a freaking, druggie/alcoholic/multiple addict/mentally ill person. She deserves a medal in my opinion.

I feel sorry for kim's family. she has shown that when she's angry she lashes out at people, making horrendous accusations that when pressed to show proof of she is completely unable. be it 'rumors' about harry hamlin, 'the truth' about the dog bite, or the circumstances about the sale of the palm springs house-when she's asked to back up her accusations she makes up excuses about why she won't (kyle offered on camera to show the 2 cancelled checks she wrote to kathy and kim for the purchase of their shares of their mom's home-kim immediately waffled and tried to change the subject).

as for the dog-I don't care how much kim emotionally needs it-her niece is not the first victim, there are reportedly at least 4 others one of whom is suing kim and bravo's production company-and the photos of her multiple bites are horrific. the trainer has said the dog is aggressive and kim's not capable of controlling it, so if it takes an instagram photo to get some public agency to step up and pull that dog out of kim's home since she apparently puts her needs above other's safety-I say 'good for you kyle'.

If Kim can't have the dog that she "needs" it is because Kim wasn't able to properly train or control the dog. It's not because of anyone else.

Kyle also shouldn't need to hang onto a home because of Kim. She paid Kim her share, but then she should hang onto the home because of Kim's issues? How is that fair to Kyle and her family?

Kim's go to behavior is to make accusations and when asked to tell the full story, back away and refuse to talk about it. That implies she isn't being honest about what she is saying.

Nobody said Kyle should hang on the the Palm Springs house. I said it was a jerky move to bring Kim to the new house when there were problems between them and the whole point of going to Palm Springs was to work out those problems.

Post 2240 says Kyle ditched Kim and implies Kyle was not right to sell the house because she should have kept it for Kim's mental health.

I'm not sure how you came to all of those conclusions. We don't have enough information about the house. Like others have said its Kim's M.O. To bring something up and then not want to talk about it. As far as the dog....I don't care how much she emotionally "needs" the dog. He bit Kyles daughter. Period. Kim is the dog owner and needs to tske responsibility for it. She takes ZERO accountability for anything. She has an excuse for everything. She expects Kyle to defend her when the other ladies are talking about her sobriety but yet says NOTHING when that peice of trash Brandi says disgusting things about Kyle.

I honestly don't see Kyle to be that manipulative. I see someone who is fed up with her sister's drunken antics.

 

[Allison]

It is interesting that Kim is already being sued because of the dog. I wonder if he is really with a trainer?

 

[Nohal]

Wonder why Kim was at such a public place obviously drinking. Did she think no one would know who she was?

 

[Allison]

Any speculation on who will and won't be back next year?

Kyle does know how to manipulate situations.
She might very well be sick of dealing with Kim . Can't blame her, alcoholics will suck the life from you.
She isn't honest about that though. She's on TV and in the tabloids crying about how mean Kim is. It seems that privately she's had enough.
Kyle's been in the tabloids since the reunion crying about how hurt she is that Kim said she's happy with how things are between the two of them. That's not what Kim said though. She said she was currently in a good place even though their relationship was not good. Kyle said the same thing. Kyle's the one that first said she loves Kim but doesn't like her. When Kim agreed, Kyle looked all hurt.

Double post

If this whole thing turns out to publicly show Kim is drinking again, I don't think she will be back.

Yes because if it's in a tabloid it MUST be true!

It's quotes directly from Kyle.
Maybe I shouldn't have used tabloids. Entertainment news outlets?

I agree - I don't think she was sober most of the season. I feel bad but how she can go on and on about being "comfortable" with her sobriety (or whatever she said) and then have this happen.

My guess is that the dog was put down - or it should be if he has bitten 4 people. That's a disaster waiting to happen.

That would be my guess too. Why would he be with a trainer over 5 months after the incident?

 

[anniemae]

I got the feeling the dog was not with a trainer. She hesitated, looked around kind of panicked, then said, "yeah" when Andy pressed and said, "so Kingsley is at a trainer right now?"

Alcoholics don't care who sees them once they start drinking.

As for Kyle, I think she's had to mother Kim her entire life even through she's like 5 years younger. Kim obviously has mental health issues as well as addiction ones. I like Kyle and the fact is everyone on reality tv is manipulative in some way. It's how they got there in the first place. But, I do think Kyle is trying to help Kim, but Kim doesn't want help. She's still in denial about her entire life. Kim's dog needs to be put down. It's an aggressive animal and she won't do anything about it.

The fact is, these reality shows are not for people who can't handle criticism. Everyone on the show has a financial reason for being on. In Kim's case it's to promote herself for other roles and earn some money. The others have their own businesses/investments they want to promote. For those that act, it's more face time on tv and for those who have other businesses such as Lisa V, it's to promote them. No matter how many hours of these shows we watch, we will never really know these people and those that judge solely on the show and tabloids are missing huge chunks of reality.

I just read that Kim is refusing rehab and wants a Sober Living companion to move in with her.
