In a candid conversation where she praised Kyle Richards, Kathy Hilton, and Bozoma “Boz” Saint John, the 41-year-old star of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills didn’t hold back. Frances, who has been responding to Rihanna’s request for her return in the show’s upcoming 16th season, was asked to sum up her fellow cast members in a single word.
When it came to Kyle Richards, Frances described her as “good,” elaborating to Extra TV that Kyle is “a good person at the end of the day, honestly.”
Frances was equally complimentary of Kathy Hilton, calling her “great” and referring to her as a “show mom” and a “wonderful human.” She also highlighted Boz’s strength, expressing admiration for her resilience.
Amanda then said “great” about Kathy, describing her as a “show mom” and “wonderful human,” and gushed over Boz’s strength.
“Strong. Strong f*cking woman,” she said of Boz.
Meanwhile, after revealing things with Erika were “complicated,” Amanda said she was “disappointed” by Rachel, and added that Dorit needs God to “help her.”
As for Sutton, Amanda didn’t have just one word.
“I have, you were nice to me at the reunion, and I got home and opened Instagram and saw you saying something not nice to me in an interview. Like, I don’t know,” she admitted.
As for her interaction with Rihanna, Amanda leaked a DM in which the singer had demanded she not quit.
“No, no, NOPE!!! No quitting!!! You’re gonna have your redemption I promise you!! We need more of you,” Rihanna had written.
Then, in response, Amanda added, “Wait… If Rihanna says I have to do a second season, then do I have to do a second season? Ummm… if The Queen says?!”
As RHOBH fans may have seen, Amanda confirmed to Extra TV earlier this week that she hadn’t been “formally asked back yet.”
“I think there’s a good chance they’re going to, but then I have to decide, ‘Do I want to do that again?’ You’ve gotta understand, it’s like three months of filming, but then it’s like six months of interviews, and then the show starts coming out and it’s media. I was cast this time last year — that means it did take one year of my life,” Amanda reasoned. “It did take a full year, and it was a lot of the year. And I was still obviously running my business, doing my thing, but during the filming chunk of the year, it actually takes up a lot of psychological space doing the show.”
“I wasn’t having, like, creative business ideas. I wasn’t thinking about the next launch. I wasn’t in the space to create and do what I think I’m here to do, you know? The show took a lot,” she added. “But then again, you have all these new people reading my book, checking out my courses, and that feels very meaningful.”
