“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” cast members aren’t having the best end to 2014.
Yolanda Foster was reportedly hospitalized due to her ongoing battle with Lyme disease while her RHOBH co-star Kim Richards was recently sued because of an incident involving her dog Kingsley.
Although her family made sure to visit her in the hospital, friends and family are still reportedly “very concerned” for Yolanda, according to RadarOnline.
“This is a very, very serious, disease and Yolanda has been such a trooper dealing with it,” a source for the entertainment website stated.
The insider added, “All Yolanda wanted was to be home for Christmas, which has happened. The problem with Yolanda’s diagnosis of Lyme disease was that it was so advanced by the time she was finally diagnosed.”
Yolanda has not only been getting the support of her daughters, Gigi and Bella, but also the love of her husband, David Foster. He’s reportedly “been so supportive during the most recent setback.”
“Yolanda worries so much about him, you would never know she was the one battling the illness from just talking to her on the phone,” stated the source.
Fellow RHOBH cast member Kim Richards has been going through her own struggles after a former family friend filed a lawsuit in a Los Angeles federal court against the former child star, according to the media outlet All Things RH.
“Kim was lying on the bed talking, and all of the sudden out of nowhere, the dog starts biting me,” family friend Kay Rozario told NY Daily News.
Rozario added, “I’m trying to pull back, but the dog has hold of me with its teeth. I fell backwards onto floor with blood spurting everywhere. There was blood all over the place. It was terrifying, just terrifying. Thank God I was leaning on the bed with both arms in front of me or the dog would have gotten my throat and face.”
Kim Richards has reportedly spoken on the incident and has stated that the allegations are “not true.”
“[Rozario] walked into my bedroom the next morning reaching across Kingsley towards me and Kingsley went after her. She was fully aware that I had a dog before she came to town and saw him upon her arrival,” explained Kim.
Kyle Richards’ sister also reportedly claimed that Rozario has sold stories about her in the past.
“It’s unfortunate how people can go against decades of friendship when something like this happens,” stated Kim.
