As the cast ventured into the trip organized by Kathy Hilton, it became evident that Kyle and Dorit had not had a chance to mend their fractured friendship since their explosive argument at Sutton Stracke’s season premiere event. For months, the two have been embroiled in accusations of betrayal and unfriendliness, with each claiming the other had failed to uphold the standards of a true friend. These long-standing grievances surfaced repeatedly during their time together, intensifying the drama.

After a day filled with laughter and sunshine, the entire cast gathered for dinner, where Kyle decided it was time to address the growing tension directly. “I need to have a conversation. I don’t want there to be awkwardness,” she declared, setting the stage for what would become a pivotal moment in their ongoing conflict.

“It feels like we barely got started, and I believe it’s crucial to address the elephant in the room,” Dorit responded, acknowledging the situation. “Everyone knows there are issues between you and me. At Sutton’s event, we had a very heated conversation, and then you stormed off.” This candid admission highlighted the ongoing tension that had become a hallmark of their interactions.

In a confessional moment, Dorit expressed her willingness to be vulnerable, stating she was ready to lay everything out for Kyle. She shared, “Until now, I don’t think she’s even cared, let alone understood the depth of my hurt and pain.” This reflection underscored the emotional stakes involved in their fractured friendship.

As the conversation deepened, Dorit confronted Richards directly, saying, “I heard what you were upset about and why you thought it was okay to publicly state that I exaggerated our friendship.” Kyle’s justification for her remarks revolved around her feelings about Dorit’s treatment of her, with a particular focus on an awkward moment from BravoCon that she believed warranted her feelings of betrayal.

“You said you were really, really hurt. I thought, I have to come and see it,” Dorit recalled regarding the BravoCon incident, where Kemsley was asked to rank the Richards sisters during a Watch What Happens Live taping. Instead of providing a straightforward answer, she made a dismissive comment, while Kyle had expected her to place her at the top of the list.

“I showed it to Erika, I showed it to Kathy. Erika was shocked by it,” Dorit recounted. “I think she thought it was going to be a lot worse. It’s very clearly meant to be a joke.” This indication of miscommunication illustrated the complexities of their relationships and the misunderstandings that often arise in their social circle.

Kyle defended her stance, asserting that the incident was just one of “many pieces to the puzzle” of why she had an issue with Dorit. She referenced another BravoCon moment when an audience member asked her a rude question about her former co-star and friend, Teddi Mellencamp-Arroyave, which was another point of contention between the two.

“I was offended when that man said that thing about Teddi… you’re Teddi’s friend; you wouldn’t say anything because it isn’t the popular thing to say,” Richards accused Dorit. “You’re too worried about what people are going to think.” This accusation highlighted the ongoing struggle between friendship loyalty and public perception.

Dorit, however, quickly countered Kyle’s argument, pushing back against the narrative that Kyle was trying to create.

“Kyle, I’m not you. That is you; it’s always been you,” Kemsley retorted fiercely. “I don’t give a flying F what anyone’s opinion is. I didn’t want to speak up or draw any more attention to that man and the comment he made.” This bold declaration emphasized Dorit’s stance on authenticity over public approval.

Kyle then articulated what she perceived as the final straw, revealing that Dorit had exposed one of Kyle’s personal text messages during last season’s reunion. In that message, Richards expressed her hope that Kemsley wouldn’t bring up their off-camera issues during the reunion; however, Dorit interpreted those messages as an attempt by Kyle to “silence” and “manipulate” her, showcasing the depth of their misunderstandings.

“I have never nor would I ever share something you ever confided in me,” Dorit asserted firmly after Kyle brought up the text message, while Richards insisted she didn’t believe Kemsley was “that person.” This exchange highlighted the trust issues that had developed between them over time.

“You’ve spent the past few months ensuring every talk show and radio show and everything you do, you’re making sure you’re painting me as that girl,” Kemsley fired back. “And it’s the most hurt you’ve ever been in 13 years by a friend in your entire world.” This emotional accusation showcased the weight of their friendship’s collapse and the impact of public perception on personal relationships.

Frustrated, Kyle urged Dorit to stop exaggerating, snapping, “God gave you two ears and one mouth for a reason; can you let me talk?” This remark encapsulated the growing tension and the struggle for both women to be heard and understood in their conversation.

However, it was Kemsley who managed to deliver the episode’s final line before the screen faded to a “To Be Continued…” slate, exclaiming, “It’s time for you to f–king hear.” This powerful statement marked a significant moment in their ongoing conflict, leaving viewers eager for the next installment.

The intense battle continues next week, as RHOBH airs every Tuesday on Bravo.
