The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Garcelle Beauvais is calling out costar Kyle Richards.
Kyle, 56, recently described Garcelle as an “a–hole” on the RHOBH After Show after Garcelle, 58, appeared to encourage her to come out as a lesbian during a pep talk on the Tuesday, January 14, episode of the Bravo reality show. (Kyle’s friendship with singer Morgan Wade has been a hot topic of speculation over the past two seasons.)
During a group visit to Chuck E. Cheese with Kyle, Erika Jayne, 53, and Sutton Stracke, also 53, on last week’s episode, Garcelle told Kyle, “Be whoever you want to be. If you want to be a lesbian, be a lesbian,” while offering Kyle advice amid her separation from husband Mauricio Umansky.
Speaking to TMZ on Tuesday, January 21, Garcelle said she was surprised by Kyle’s strong reaction because “I wasn’t saying it to be malicious,” adding that her remark wasn’t necessarily to prompt discussion about Kyle’s sexuality but “more about, we’re powerful women, we can be whatever we want to be.”
Charles Sykes/Bravo The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was more dramatic than usual — thanks to Kyle Richards. “I’m gonna say something and then I’m leaving. I don’t know how this all went so wrong,” Kyle, 56, told her RHOBH castmates during the Tuesday, January 21 episode. “I can’t do this anymore. I really can’t. […]
“It wasn’t a dig. It was to inspire her to do whatever she wants to do,” the Black Girl Missing actress continued.
Garcelle added of Kyle’s reaction, “It’s so funny because we laughed about it afterward, so for her to say that was pretty shady.”
For her part, Kyle said she was thrown by Garcelle’s choice of words. “What was really going through my head was, ‘You’re being an a–hole right now.’ Don’t try to act like oopsie-daisies. You know exactly what you’re doing,” Kyle told Erika on the RHOBH After Show.
“I was thinking, ‘If you’re thinking you’re going to get a reaction from me, or I’m going to be offended, I’m not,’” Kyle added. “It’s nothing I haven’t seen in tabloids and things.”
Garcelle also addressed her remarks during the After Show while talking to Sutton and Jennifer Tilly, reiterating that she was trying to encourage Kyle to live her life without worrying about other people’s opinions. “We’re allowed to be who we are at this age,” she said. “You don’t have to worry so much about what other people think of us.”
On the After Show, Kyle also claimed that Garcelle didn’t apologize for the remark. “She just said, ‘I can’t believe I said that,’” Kyle told Erika. “I was just like, ‘Yeah.’”
