The feud between sisters and The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars Kim and Kyle Richards has been brewing for years. The sisters have had their ups and downs, but they never seem to be able to fully reconcile. Here’s a complete history of the events that have caused the ever-widening rift between Kim and Kyle.
November 2014
The sisters’ feud began all the way back in 2014, when Kim’s beloved pit bull, Kingsley, bit Kyle’s 18-year-old daughter, Alexia.
“Alexia has been away from college for months and hasn’t seen Kingsley in a long time,” Kim explained in a statement, adding that Kingsley was in a bedroom that was “off limits” to Alexia. “Kingsley is used to the home being full of children and since the kids have gone away, the house has become quiet,” Kim continued. “While the two have been very close and friendly in the past, the dog has become very protective of me in the meantime. When guests are over Kingsley stays in my bedroom and has been given access to a special fenced-in area in my backyard. Anyone entering the house is made aware that the dog should not be bothered.”
Two days after the bite, Alexia was hospitalized due to the wound on her hand.

On an episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, while Kyle is still upset over Kim’s dog biting her daughter, Kim throws fuel on the flame by blaming the attack on Alexia.
During the episode, Kim said it was Alexia’s sudden movements that startled the dog and provoked him to attack. According to a source, Kim’s refusal to take any responsibility for the incident “makes Kyle absolutely nuts. Kyle gets understandably very upset after Kim suggests that the dog bite was Alexia’s fault.”

November 2015
As Kim endured legal problems and rehab stints, she kept largely out of the limelight. And months after news that their feud was only intensifying, Kyle revealed that she and Kim were actually in a better place.
Later in the interview, however, she seemed to backpedal a little.
“It’s very difficult. We will be OK, then the show reruns and we’re like ‘Oh my gosh.’ It kinda brings things up again, honestly,” she said. “It’s just not that but… we have a very difficult relationship and we will probably always be a work in progress. Always. Honestly. I don’t know if it is every going to be just like when we were little, saying ‘Woo hoo let’s have ice cream together.'”
She also blamed The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills for causing their feud, saying, “[It’s] very difficult [to watch the fights]. You want to pretend it didn’t happen. You want to forget about it. Then you’re going ‘God that was really awful. That was horrible. It was mean, it was scary.'”
December 2015
Was there an end in sight?
In an interview with OK magazine, Kyle revealed that she and Kim were healing their relationship.
“It’s doing much better, which I’m very grateful for,” she said. “We’re actually doing well now.”
She continued, “It was just a lot of damage and it’s going to take quite some time before it’s completely healed. But I think that we’re probably always going to have a rocky relationship and are going to have good times and bad times. It will always be a work in progress. But we love each other — we just don’t always get along.”
January 2016
Just weeks after Kyle said she and Kim were in a better place, Kim and their other sister, Kathy Hilton, both snubbed Kyle by skipping her birthday party.
“Kim was invited to the dinner but Kathy wasn’t,” an insider explained. “Things continue to be very tense. Kathy didn’t even call Kyle to wish her a happy birthday!”
Kim did wish Kyle a happy birthday on Instagram, but her absence at Kyle’s party was still noticeable.

February 2016
Just as things seemed to be looking up for the Richards sisters, Kyle gave Kim another huge slap in the face: She skipped Monty Brinson’s memorial and funeral.
According to sources, Kyle was invited to the events, but her husband was not, so she declined her invitation. Reportedly, the entire family was present… except Kyle.
