Denise Richards Confirms Return to ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ (EXCLUSIVE)
K.J. Yossman Three years after Denise Richards walked away from “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” amid a storm of gossip and drama, the actor has confirmed to Variety she is returning to the franchise in a guest capacity. “I have filmed some episodes,” Richards told Variety in Cannes, where the actor was in town to promote her latest drama series, “Paper Empire,” at Canneseries. “And it’s been fun. And you know, I’m a big fan of the show, so it was fun to go back and film a lot of stuff with them.” Richards claimed her return to the reality show was so unplanned that even Bravo’s production team had no idea she’d be at a screening hosted by Real Housewife Garcelle Beauvais. “This all just happened recently on the spur of the moment,” Richards said. “I was at her screening as a friend — like a real friend — I didn’t tell anyone I was gonna be there. Production didn’t know. I just showed up, like, for real life, as a real friend in real life.”
