Kyle Richards has no regrets when it comes to her "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" season nine confrontation with Lisa Vanderpump.
Over a year after Lisa's husband, Ken Todd, infamously booted Kyle from their stunning mansion, thus ending the ladies' friendship, Kyle appeared on "Watch What Happens Live," where she was questioned about the intense moment between herself and her former friend.
"Kyle, do you regret going to Vanderpump's house to confront her about the Radar Online drama since you were ultimately kicked out?" Andy wondered on the episode.

"No. I feel bad about the result but I felt it was the right thing to do because, like Teddi just said, otherwise she would have just seen it on the episode," Kyle explained, according to a clip of the "Watch What Happens Live" episode shared by The Cheat Sheet.
Kyle went on to say that when it came to her former relationship with Lisa, she believed it was important to pull her into the loop about what their co-stars had accused her of.

"I felt it was right to go and tell her what was going on," Kyle explained.
As fans of "The Real Houswives of Beverly Hills" will recall, allegations claiming Lisa leaked a negative story about Dorit Kemsley erupted during season nine and continued to be a hot topic throughout the season.
Although Lisa denied the claims against her on a number of occasions, the majority of her co-stars didn't seem to believe she was innocent and ultimately, she called it quits with the series last summer.

In November of last year, months after Lisa quit her full-time position on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," she revealed the reason behind her decision to People magazine.
“I had a great time on Housewives,” Lisa said at the time. “But to have negativity during a time in my life when I needed to try to be positive … I decided it was over.”
Lisa then admitted that due to the unexpected death of her brother, she wasn't emotionally equipped to deal with the drama of the show.

“I’ve been in a position where the whole cast has been against me before,” Lisa continued. “But this time, our foundation was taking a bashing from the women, and it didn’t deserve it. And suddenly, to start dealing with them all screaming and shouting at me on that first trip [to the Bahamas], I thought, ‘What the hell am I doing?’ And that was really it.”
To see more of Kyle and her co-stars, don't miss new episodes of the 10th season of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" on Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. on Bravo.
