Production and crew
[edit]The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills was renewed for a ninth season in April 2018.[1] The season premiered on February 12, 2019.[2] Alex Baskin, Chris Cullen, Douglas Ross, Greg Stewart, Toni Gallagher, Dave Rupel and Andy Cohen are recognized as the series' executive producers; it is produced and distributed by Evolution Media.[3]
Cast
[edit]All six cast members from the previous season returned, along with Denise Richards joining the cast in a regular capacity.[4] Grammer returned once again as a friend of the housewives. Vanderpump last appeared in the final episode of the season.[5] On June 4, 2019, Vanderpump announced that she would not attend the ninth season reunion, stating: "The objective of the reunion is to reunite, right? And I have no inclination to reunite with the women who've been harassing me for 10 months now."[6] Following this, Variety announced that she would not return to the series.[7]
Synopsis
[edit]Much of the season's drama revolves around a dog named Lucy Lucy Apple Juice that Dorit Kemsley adopts from Lisa Vanderpump's foundation, Vanderpump Dogs. Dorit rehomes Lucy after the dog attacks her family, but the new owner was also unable to properly care for Lucy and ended up taking the dog to a kill shelter. The incident is brought up by two Vanderpump Dogs employees when Kyle Richards and Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave visit the foundation. Lisa Vanderpump's attempts to shut down the conversation on camera fail as the employees voice their annoyance that Dorit knew rehoming the animal was a contract violation and that Lucy was not the first dog she was unable to manage.[8]
When Lucy is brought up at dinner during a group vacation in the Bahamas, Lisa Rinna immediately calls the situation a set-up and chastises Lisa Vanderpump for allowing it to happen. Matters are further complicated when Teddi confesses that she did, in fact, conspire with the Vanderpump Dogs employees to create a scene for the show so they could embarrass Dorit. Teddi insists that Lisa Vanderpump was in on the scheme and that the employees acted as intermediaries on Lisa Vanderpump's behalf, but Lisa Vanderpump continues to maintain that she had no part of it.
When the story is leaked to Radar Online, the ladies unanimously believe that Lisa Vanderpump was behind it. Things reach a boiling point when Kyle tells Lisa Vanderpump that the group, herself included, believe Lisa Vanderpump orchestrated everything to punish Dorit for the dog fiasco without directly jeopardizing their friendship. Fed up with being called a liar and a master manipulator, Lisa Vanderpump subsequently kicks Kyle out of her house, ends their friendship over the issue, quits the show, and refuses to even attend the reunion.[9]
Denise Richards marries her fiancée Aaron Phyphers in a wedding planned in less than a week. Kyle Richards struggles with sending her daughter Sophia to college in Washington, D.C. as she begins to realise all her children are slowly leaving the home. Kyle deals with the fallout of losing her 12-year friendship with Lisa. Lisa Rinna hosts a dinner in honour of her mother Lois. The dinner quickly turns political when Camille comes talks about her support of Brett Kavanaugh following rape allegations during his Supreme Court of the United States confirmation bid. Kim Richards makes a small appearance at this dinner, being in the same restaurant at the same time.
Lisa Vanderpump celebrates the passing of House Bill 401. [10] The bill affirms United States urges countries, especially in Asia where the dog meat market is still established, to stop the slaughter and trade of dog and cat meat. Vanderpump hosts a birthday party and doesn't invite any of the ladies except Denise, who was under the impression they were meeting to speak quickly.
