'RHOBH' Cast [SPOILER]: Kyle Richards Fired From Season 6 After Sister Kim Given the Axe?

With Kim Richard's getting the axe from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills earlier this week it seems that her departure might also spell the end for her sister, Kyle Richards. That's right, it looks like the trouble star, who has been dealing with her own personal issues including an arrest, relapse, and rehab stint, might have brought her sister down with her. While the show is getting ready to start production on Season 6, it is being rumored that neither one of the sisters will be making appearances on the new episodes.

The girls have been bringing the drama and ratings to the Bravo reality series since the beginning, but now it looks like RHOBH might have to continue on without any of the Richards gals.

According to Radar Online, while Kim's departure was announced earlier this week, it seems that producers of the series are using this as an opportunity to clean house, and Kyle is on the chopping block.

"Execs have been wanting to get rid of one, if not both, of the sisters for some time," an insider explained to the news site, and it looks like this would be the perfect time to give Kyle the boot, as she has lined up work on a TV Land series.

"It just makes sense," the insider continued.

E! News reported on Kim's departure from the show yesterday, saying that the starlet will not be featured as a full-time cast member on the series following her recent antics and hardships.

However, they do report that if Kim gets herself together she could be featured in cameos and guest spots. Word on the rest of the housewives cast has yet to be announced.
