Kyle Richards Slams 'Mean' Lisa Vanderpump Over 'Fat' Tweet
"Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" star Kyle Richards blasted her costar Lisa Vanderpump via Twitter recently over a tweet ridiculing her weight.
The mother of four, 44, had a falling out with the "Vanderpump Rules" star, 53, during season three and tensions from their unresolved feud are still lingering in season four.
Viewers have watched the former friends continuously clash this season and their feud reached new heights on Monday when one of Vanderpump's fans called out fellow "Housewife," Brandi Glanville. The fan slammed Glanville for gossiping about Vanderpump and also took a jab at Richards.

"Talking s--- about @LisaVanderpump when she's not there is really sucky @BrandiGlanville, especially to fat Kyle. #BadFriend #RHOBH," the fan tweeted.
Vanderpump, who reportedly feels targeted by Glanville and Richards this season, retweeted the post to her 700,000 followers.
"I don't normally retweet...however everybody else is so here we go...," Vanderpump said of her decision to retweet the post.
Richards, who has openly struggled with her weight in previous seasons, understandably took offense to Vanderpump's retweet.
"Thanks 4 the RT calling me fat. #mean," Richards wrote.
"Thanks for your p--- taking..#evenworse," Vanderpump countered.
Richards admittedly underwent liposuction in 2012 and a nose job in 2006, which she claims boosted her confidence and increased her self-esteem. She revealed her struggle to lose weight after having four children.
"After having four kids, no matter what exercise I did, the love handles wouldn't go away. The surgery made me feel better!" Richards told Life & Style magazine.
In July 2012, a source detailed Richards' liposuction surgery revealing that she underwent the procedure, also known as "fat modeling," where body fat is removed from specific parts of the body using a suction method for an instant path to weight loss.
"Kyle went and had full body lipo. The doctor sculpted and toned her perfectly and she was completely thrilled with the results. It wasn't a dramatic difference, but the overall change is amazing. She looks and feels better than she ever has," a source previously told RadarOnline.com.
"She only lost about 15-20 pounds in total, but it was all from the right places, the trouble spots that she couldn't get rid of through exercise or diet alone," the source added.
Richards' decision to undergo liposuction surgery was reportedly in part influenced by her allegedly feeling self-conscious alongside her Bravo TV co-stars. The boutique store owner is now said to be more confident than ever.
"She finally feels she can hold her own against her cast members and it has done wonders for her self-esteem," the source added.
