NEW YORK - Much speculation encircled Real Housewives of Beverly Hills and previous child-actress Kim Richards this television season.

On the show, it was clear Ms. Richards was struggling with issues in her life. Her erratic behavior caused her fellow cast members to accuse her of using crystal meth on screen. Kim Richards, as well as her sister Kyle Richards, both vehemently denied those allegations on camera. What they didn't initially reveal, however, was the true substance she struggled with: alcohol.

On the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Reunion Show, Kim Richards sat down one-on-one and revealed that she is an alcoholic and that, back in December 2011, she sought rehab for it.

“We're so happy that Ms. Richards received rehab for her alcoholism,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center . “She found the strength and courage to not only admit to herself, but to the entire world, that she has a problem with alcohol. With her determination, support from her family and her fellow cast members she, like others in recovery, can continue the path of sobriety. Although it's not an easy journey, it's one of the most rewarding that an individual will pursue.”
