Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Paris Hilton’s mother Kathy Hilton has been cast in season 11 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
US broadcaster Bravo confirmed that Kathy will join the reality show as a “friend of the housewives”, meaning she will make recurring appearances throughout the series.
Kathy will join her younger sister, original Housewife Kyle Richards, on the show. Their sister Kim has also appeared in previous seasons.
“She's not just a Friend Of — she's family! Please welcome @kathyhilton to #RHOBH,” Bravo announced on Instagram.
Kathy’s complicated relationship with Kyle has provided a source of drama on the show in previous seasons.
Kathy and Kim both objected to their sister telling what they called a “fictionalised” version of their childhood, in the short-lived drama series American Woman. The show starred Alicia Silverstone as a version of the Richards sisters' mum.
All three siblings now appear to be on better terms.
The new season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills will also star new fulltime Housewife, actor and food entrepreneur Crystal Kung Minkoff, who will replace Denise Richards.
Paris Hilton recently released her own TV project, a YouTube documentary exploring her public persona as one of the ultimate “It Girls”.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is available to watch on NOWTV in the UK, and Bravo in the US.
