Kyle Richards Makes a Surprising Declaration About Her Past "Issues" with Lisa Vanderpump

Kyle took to an Amazon Live stream on Wednesday, Oct. 22, where she was asked by a viewer to name "five nice things" about Lisa. But, she had no problem with this task, paying the Vanderpump Rules boss some very sweet compliments. "She's very funny," Kyle said. "She's very smart. She's beautiful. She is a very good businesswoman. And I bet she'd be a good grandmother."
She then proceeded to make a declaration about how she feels towards Lisa. "Listen, LVP and I have had our issues, and, obviously, you know, in doing a show like this, it doesn't always bring out the best in people," Kyle admitted. "So I think that, you know, if that weren't a part of it, I could maybe see things differently."
"But, of course, obviously I have my negative takeaways. But also there are many great, great qualities to Lisa Vanderpump, and attributes. Absolutely," she noted.
Kyle Richards opens up about whether she would reconcile with Lisa Vanderpump
Kyle took to Amazon Live in December 2024, where she admitted that becoming friends with Lisa again would be unlikely for her. Especially since Lisa has asked Kyle to apologize to her, which is something that she does not want to do. "LVP said that it would have to start with an apology and — by the way — no one's asking to, sorry," Kyle said. "So don't hold your breath. Happy holidays."

This declaration came on the heels of Kyle running into Lisa and her husband, Ken Todd, in October 2024. Kyle took to Amazon Live in November 2024, where she recounted their awkward in-person encounter.
"I did see her recently, actually," Kyle explained. "And I said 'Hi' and she was with Ken. That was not long ago, maybe a month or so, and she was actually friendly. Ken's always — he gives a kiss or whatever. She's a little colder, but it was [an] interesting encounter. Anyway, it was not bad. [It] did not go badly. I will say that."

Although that interaction did not go badly, Lisa was less than enthused when she learned that Kyle had been interested in buying a house across the street from her. While Kyle never went through with it and is staying in her Encino home, Lisa appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on May 1, where she opened up about just how close Kyle would have been to her.

"This house is 15-foot from me. She went there four times," Lisa told host, Andy Cohen. "This house used to be Channing Tatum's. I used to have a plan to dig a tunnel underneath the road to get to Channing Tatum. But, he sold it. And then Kyle, like, trying to buy it. Like, why would you go there four times? Like, why doesn't she ask to stay in my guest bedroom or something?"

Eamonn Walker’s Emotional Homecoming as Wallace Boden on Chicago Fire
After more than a year away from the blaze, Eamonn Walker is finally stepping back into the world of Chicago Fire — and for the man
behind Wallace Boden, it feels like coming home in the truest sense. Sitting down with reporters, Walker’s trademark calm and sincerity
colored every word as he reflected on the moment he walked back onto the Firehouse 51 set.
For over a decade, Walker’s portrayal of Boden anchored Chicago Fire with moral gravity and quiet strength. His exit in Season 12 was written as a victory — Boden’s promotion to Deputy Commissioner — but for both the cast and the actor, it was also a heartfelt goodbye. When the time came to leave, Walker admits, it felt unfinished. “You can never really leave something that’s been part of your life for that long,” he said. “Boden lives inside me.”
Returning after that emotional farewell, Walker described being overwhelmed by the warmth of the reunion. “I walked onto the lot and the entire cast and crew just stopped. There was this round of applause, this feeling that I was walking back into a family that never forgot me,” he recalled. “It hit me — I hadn’t realized how much I’d missed that energy, that heartbeat.”
The actor also expressed deep gratitude toward fans who have flooded social media with messages under the hashtag #BodenBack. “I’ve read so many of the comments,” he smiled. “To feel that kind of love after all these years — it’s humbling. It reminds me why this show matters.”
As for whether this return is a brief visit or the start of a new chapter, Walker remains coy. “If they write it, I’ll always come back,” he said with a grin. “Because Chicago Fire isn’t just a job — it’s family. And like Boden says, once you’re part of 51, you carry it with you.”
After more than a decade of leading with heart and honor, Eamonn Walker’s return isn’t just a television comeback — it’s a rekindling of the flame that keeps Chicago Fire burning.
