Kyle Richards Breaks Down In Tears In 'RHOBH' Preview After Texting Her Co-Star's Husband

Kyle Richards broke down in tears during an upcoming episode of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and a new preview captured the dramatic moment that led to the reality star walking out of filming.

Richards didn't film for a week after walking out of a spa day at Bozoma Saint John's home following an argument with the other ladies.

During an episode titled "A Perfect Storm Out," Kyle Richards broke down in tears before she briefly quit filming the reality show.

Richards and her co-star, Dorit Kemsley, argued during last week's episode titled "What the Chuck?"

The women were fighting over Richard's texting Kemsley's estranged husband, P.K. The 56-year-old reality star claimed the texts were only "memes and jokes."

"My friendship with PK is memes and jokes," claimed Richards. "You know, he doesn't share anything about your relationship or anything that's going on. We don't talk like that. It's literally, like memes and jokes and things like that, and that's it."

"It's not even that Kyle's been communicating with PK since our separation," said Kemsley. "The point is that you're texting my husband when you and I are not talking, when you and I are not good. It's just not okay."

Things quickly escalated, and after saying she would no longer text P.K., Richards yelled, "What more do you f-cking want from me?" Kemsley screamed back, "I want you to stop f-cking raising your voice to me!"

Richards later read the text message she sent to P.K. out loud during lunch with Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, and Erika Jayne.

The ladies were having lunch at Chuck E. Cheese, and Richards was upset her character was being questioned.

“I know you have a lot of friends but I am one and here when you need me," said Richards in the text. "I’ve never repeated anything you’ve shared with me and never would. Will keep sending memes and won’t forget the laughing emojis.”

"The fact that she's trying to make it seem like I'm [doing] anything inappropriate is gross. And I'm not going to get to a point in my life where I am having to pull out my phone and sh-t, because I'm an adult, and that's a f-cking joke."

After Richards read the text to P.K. out loud, her co-stars noted in their confessionals that the texts between Richards and P.K. weren't just memes.

During a spa day at Sant John's, Richards is confronted about her texts to P.K., per Bravo.

"I want to say something then I'm leaving," said Richards in tears. "I don't know how this all went so wrong... I can't do this anymore. I can't do this anymore. I really can't."

"I'm trying to be in a good place in my life, " she added. "I love you and PK and your kids, and you know that, I know that you know that. I've been made to feel like I did something wrong, you know, sending a text PK, so I said, I'm gonna read this once, and that is it."

"He makes a joke in April," she continued. "The next text is not till the day you guys got separated. I said, 'I know you have a lot of friends, I'm also one. If you need me, I've never repeated anything you've shared with me and wouldn't.' Meaning, I don't mean about regarding you. I think that's what you're taking it as. I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about this."

Richards then gestured to the production crew, noting that she wouldn't share details with production.

After Richards stormed out of the spa day, Beauvais is shown in the confessional breaking down the text message Richards read out loud.

"I don't get what her talking to PK has to do with production," said Beauvais. "So if you're having a private conversation with someone and you want to say, 'I will never share what we talked about with production,' you would write 'with production' — and she didn't do that."

"Either way, it doesn't look good," added Beauvais. "Because obviously, that means it was more than memes and jokes. Because if it's memes and jokes, share 'em! Production likes to laugh too."

In last week's episode, Richards brought up Kemsley being too "touchy-feely" with her estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky.

She showed Boz footage from 2022 where Kemsley kissed Umansky on his shoulder as he hugged P.K., per PEOPLE.

"Let me show you something funny," said Richards. "It was a stupid rumor, but I'm just gonna show you. There's a whole rumor started because they're like, 'Dorit is way too touchy-feely with Mau.'"

"There was a whole rumor about how Dorit has a thing for Mau, and it was all over the internet. She had to go and defend it and this and that. So don't even get me freaking started about sending stupid memes, okay?"
