Kyle Richards' Stranglehold Is Killing The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

Through The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ fourteen seasons, there’s been one constant – Kyle Richards. As the only OG housewife, Kyle has gotten particularly familiar with how things run on the show. However, recently it's come to many viewers' attention that she has become so intertwined with production that she’s no longer just a cast member, she’s the one steering the ship. Kyle doesn’t follow the network's orders anymore — she makes the orders. She has this stranglehold over the series where she always seems to know the agenda ahead of time, and somehow manages to dodge the tough questions while everyone else gets dragged in the mud. If the network doesn't do something about this stranglehold, Kyle could end up killing the series.
