Former 'Hello Larry' star Kim Richards (Ruthie Adler) Enters Rehab! - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Kim Richards has entered a rehabilitation clinic.

The star's rehab stint was announced on Thursday night's season finale, which featured a fight between an inebriated Richards and her sister Kyle at castmate Taylor Armstrong's birthday party.

According to the show, Richards's family checked her into an unnamed centre after the incident, in which she threatened her sister by saying: "Watch your step."

Kyle later wrote about the fight on the show's official blog.

"My heart was broken and I suffered an incredible amount of anxiety and panic attacks. Next to losing my mother, this was the most difficult time of my life," she posted.

I hope Kim finds the help she needs in rehab and is willing to accept that help.

They always leave out Paris Hiltons' aunt and played Prudence on the 1960's forgotten sitcom "Nanny And The Professor" which should be out on DVD and I don't mean downloadable off amazon.

God bless and keep Kim as she seeks help. I hope she'll be OK. I've always liked her and Kyle.

I think its too bad she got involved in the Real Hollywood Housewives. It probably didn't do anything for emotional health.

Agh...Kim was one of my early crushes, too (along with Kristy McNichol, Kathy Coleman and Jodie Foster, for those interested).

I sure hope things work out for her. She still looks great, hopefully sometime soon she'll FEEL great, too.

I lost all respect for Kyle Richards after this whole debacle. I'd always liked her before.

I thought Kim would have enough sense to stay out of the Real Housewives BS!!!

Kim Richards was the only sister I was familiar with as far as being a child actor. Did Kyle and Kathy ever act?

Kathy (Richards) Hilton, the mother of Paris, and sister of Kyle and Kim, must be the one with the sense. Having a daughter making a fool of herself on reality television and high-profile social events for the past decade, and now her 2 sisters involved with Real Housewives, Kathy's the one who has stayed clear of all this nonsense!

As far as Kim goes, I still see that sweet young girl from the Disney movies, Little House on the Prairie, Nanny & the Professor and Hello! Larry, in her eyes. I hope for the best for her in her addition recovery.

Kyle recurred on Little House on the Prairie as Alicia Sanderson, an orphan girl, who along with her two brothers, was adopted by Mr. Edwards and his new wife. Kathy did mainly episodic work in shows like Family Affair, Happy Days, Bewitched, and The Rockford Files. Kathy was one of the two finalists up for the role of Jan Brady for The Brady Bunch Variety Hour - and ultimately lost the part to Geri Reischl. Anyway, Kathy shortly gave up her acting career to marry Rick Hilton and bear four children - among them, Paris.

Here are the three Richards sisters taken in 2009:

I thought the girl on LHOTP was Kim. Wow, Kim and Kyle looked very much alike as young girls.

catlover79 · 02-21-2011, 12:58 PM

Kim DID make one guest appearance on LHOP in its first season in the episode "Town Party-Country Party". A few years down the road, she would play Cooter's long lost daughter in an episode of Dukes of Hazzard.
