Kyle Richards and Erika Jayne looked back at the infamous “Let’s not talk about the husband” scene of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season five during a recent interview.
Just over 10 years after the controversial episode, in which Kim Richards, 60, suggested she knew a shocking secret about Lisa Rinna‘s husband, Harry Hamlin, 73, which she never actually disclosed, Kyle, 56, and Erika, 53, sat down to rewatch the drama play out.
“Did you just say, ‘Let’s talk about the husband?’” Lisa, 61, asked in the season five moment, as seen in a clip from PEOPLE’s Reality Rewind.
“Let’s not talk about what you don’t want out,” Kim warned Lisa.
As the cast attempted to enjoy a group meal in Amsterdam, things became tense, with Eileen Davidson, 65, shaming Kim for her apparent threat.
“You’re a scary, viscous human being,” she told her castmate as Lisa continued to fight back.
“You know what? Let me tell you something. Don’t you ever touch … Don’t touch my husband,” she demanded as she made a jab at Kim.
“That was scary,” Erika admitted of the decade-old episode. “And then [Kim] just goes right back at her — when [Brandi Glanville]’s trying to be the voice of reason.”
“This is where … I mean, this is really … Glass was actually flying, shards of glass,” Kyle recalled, looking back at the moment in which she darted out the door as her co-stars fought.
“Everyone asks me why I ran,” she continued. “But I can tell you that since I’m a little girl, when something is scary to me, I run and hide. And to me in that moment, I was … the glass started flying, I was embarrassed in front of the people in the restaurant. I was embarrassed in front of the owners of the restaurant, and I don’t know what, I just, I literally just flew. And then my cape was just like flowing in the wind.”
“It was very cinematic,” Erika admitted.
According to Kyle, she “just wanted to get out of there.” And according to Erika, she could see how heated Lisa was getting.
“Knowing Lisa like we know Lisa, you can see she’s really angry,” she explained.
“That’s the thing: It was scary. Lisa really lost her temper there,” Kyle replied. “When she went in [with the jab], I was like, ‘Oh my gosh.’ … And then Kim, if you do that with her, she’s gonna go right in there too, and I just thought, knowing how my sister is too, I didn’t know what was gonna happen. I just needed to flee.”
“It just went to a whole new level,” Erika concluded.
Just months ago, in a clip shared by You Know Nat on Instagram, Kathy Griffin, 64, shed new light on the situation, claiming Harry revealed Kim’s supposed secret about him during a dinner between them and Lisa.
“He’s such like a quiet-spoken, intellectual guy, and he goes, ‘They said I f**ked a dog.’ And you guys, I lost it laughing. And I went, ‘What?’ I go, ‘That’s what you were gonna fight over? Somebody said Harry f**ked a dog?’ I just thought that was the funniest thing,” Kathy admitted. “Of all the rumors, how did even one person be like, ‘Hm, that is possible.’ I thought the rumor was just that he was having an affair with somebody, maybe an affair with someone on the show.”
