Kathy Hilton used to be a fan of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" but during a recent interview with "Access Hollywood" at her home in Los Angeles, she admitted that she quit watching the Bravo reality series after an ugly scene between her two sisters, Kyle Richards and Kim Richards, on season one.
“I don’t watch the show… I did up until [Kim and Kyle's] big fight, and then that was it,” Kathy explained, via Just Jared.

After Kathy was asked how many times she's been asked to become a part of the "Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast, she admitted she's been approached "many" times.
"I've been on several, a few times, but we went back and forth this 11th season many, many times. It was touch and go for about three months," she explained.
Kathy then said that when it came down to making a final decision, she ultimately came to the conclusion that a role on the show would mean more time with her sister.

“Finally I thought, ‘You know this is a great opportunity to spend time with Kyle.'I’m sure that most of those who watch the show know that we’ve had a rough road for many years. So we had started to spend more time together and I was just really excited to be able to be with her and I'm really happy I did it," Kathy explained.
Although Kim does not appear on the 11th season of the show, Kathy did consult with her before accepting her role for the season.
"Actually she was the first person that I called," Kathy revealed.

"She said, 'Yes, I think you should do it. Just don't lose your temper.' Kim, yeah, she said, 'I think this would be a great experience. It would be great for you and Kyle to spend that time together,'" Kathy recalled.
While Kathy wouldn't say whether or not she lost her temper during production, she did say that she's not so sure she and her three sisters will ever be seen on the show at the same time.
"I don't know. I could see the three of us working together. I don't know what show it would be," she said.
