There was no shortage of real-life drama and shockers on the second season of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills," and it seems the same will hold true for the upcoming, three-part reunion special.
The biggest jaw dropper in store for regular viewers of the 90210 action might just be one simple statement from embattled "Housewife" Kim Richards.
In a sneak peek for the episodes, a serious Richards can be seen telling host Andy Cohen, "I'm an alcoholic."
Warning: The video contains racy comments typical of "The Real Housewives," but perhaps not so typical of your workplace. Adjust the volume accordingly.
The sentiment isn't shocking — not to fans, who've watched Richards' troubling behavior on-screen, or to castmates, some of whom, including her sister Kyle, have said as much themselves. But the blunt statement marks a first for Richards, who's long denied the problem.
What a difference rehab makes.
As for that rehab experience, fellow "Housewife" Adrienne Maloof applauds Richards for taking action.
“It takes a lot of courage to do what she has done," she said. "It’s a step in the right direction."
