“She’s doing really well,” Kathy stated in an interview with Entertainment Tonight on December 6, addressing Kim’s current state.

When asked about the possibility of Kim making a return to RHOBH, Kathy acknowledged that fans frequently express their desire for Kim’s comeback.

“She’s doing really well,” Kathy confirmed of Kim during a December 6 interview with Entertainment Tonight.

Then, after the interviewer mentioned that fans have been hoping to see Kim return to RHOBH, Kathy admitted to seeing such hopes “all the time.”

“[But] I don’t think it’s for her,” she noted, agreeing that the invasiveness of the cameras is too much for her younger sibling. “And she’s a very talented actress, too, so it’s … I don’t know. I don’t think she really is interested.”

For now, Kathy is happy to have her other sister, Kyle Richards, 56, on the show, along with a few new cast members on season 15.

“It’s so much fun. We have three new girls. Rachel is like family, so, and then the two new girls, Natalie and Amanda, they’re wonderful,” she gushed.

As for Amanda, Kathy mentioned that it wasn’t exactly smooth sailing between them — at least at first.

“In the beginning, with Amanda, I was a little like, hm, but then, I really, really like her,” she shared.

Also during the interview, Kathy deemed herself “Mrs. Claus” as she spoke of the magic that takes place at her Bel Air mansion at Christmastime.

“It’s magical. We’re still decorating. We’ve been decorating for a couple of months,” she admitted.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 15 airs Thursdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
