Crystal Kung-Minkoff appears to consider Lisa Rinna was behind the leaked details about Kathy Hilton‘s alleged meltdown in Aspen, which occurred off-camera amid manufacturing on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 12.
During a few current interviews, Crystal, 40, doubled down on her cosmetic surgery diss aimed toward co-star Dorit Kemsley, 47, suspected Lisa shared behind-the-scenes particulars about Kathy’s supposed “psychotic break” with the press, and admitted season 13 was “totally different” with out Lisa, who introduced her departure in January.
“I’m going to be just really honest. It was very different, and I didn’t know Rinna’s impact on me until she was not there,” Crystal admitted on the November 17 episode of Scheanigans, by way of Just Jared. “That being said, I mean, I think Rinna’s been obviously an incredible housewife. I mean, well, I used to watch it. She was iconic to me.”
Looking again on the claims Lisa made in opposition to Kathy, 64, together with her supposed risk to “destroy” sister Kyle Richards, 54, and her household, Crystal advised that Lisa was behind the leaks about Kathy as no storylines have been being leaked to the press anymore following Lisa’s exit.
“That being said, like with the whole leaking of the press and stuff, I think it’s pretty obvious, because there’s no press being leaked about our season now,” Crystal stated, signaling to Lisa’s absence from RHOBH season 13. “Again, it was my second year and I still felt like a novice to the whole thing, so I’m like, well maybe this is how this show works. Maybe this is how toxic it is. Maybe this is what people do.”
According to Crystal, she didn’t perceive why Lisa, or anybody else, would leak data to the press forward of the season’s premiere.
“I was like, why do they do that? Don’t they want the show to play out? I just didn’t understand it, but now, it’s far more clear to me because there’s nothing out [about this season]. But why? I’ll never know,” she famous.
Also throughout the podcast, host Scheana Shay, 38, requested Crystal if she agreed with Kathy naming Lisa as “the biggest bully in Hollywood.”
“I wouldn’t. But I don’t know everyone in Hollywood,” Crystal replied. “I would say like, maybe on the show. I can pretty much say that, but in Hollywood, I don’t know. [There’s] a lot of people in Hollywood. I think there’s a lot of mean people in Hollywood.”
Meanwhile, throughout one other interview, Crystal was requested concerning the shade she threw at Dorit.
As RHOBH followers will recall, Crystal advised Dorit hadn’t “seen a real body part in 10 years” after Dorit stated she didn’t count on to listen to Crystal declare that her nipples are “perfect” throughout a racy recreation amid their women’ journey to Las Vegas.
“I think it’s funny. I stand by it,” Crystal informed Us Weekly on November 8. “I loved it. I think it’s hysterical. Dorit’s the one person who’s always saying, ‘Come on Crystal, I know you’re shady. Go for it.’ I don’t think she wanted it at her expense.”
Prior to Crystal’s diss, Dorit was shaded by former castmate Lisa Vanderpump, 63, who advised in 2021 that she didn’t acknowledge her at an occasion in Los Angeles as a result of work she had executed.
“Ignore her? I just didn’t recognize her lol,” Vanderpump wrote on X, Twitter at the moment, together with a side-by-side picture of Dorit in highschool and now.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs on Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
