From her tattoos to her missing wedding band, Kyle Richards has a lot to answer for on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

On Wednesday’s episode of the Bravo show, the actress, 54, met her friend and rumored love interest, Morgan Wade, at a tattoo parlor in Los Angeles.

As she deliberated on getting a tattoo of a planet and a cluster of stars, Kyle explained their unconventional friendship to the artist who was cleaning up the design that eventually went on her hip.

“Morgan and I are very close friends, we talk every day,” she told the cameras, before explaining to the artist that “people are really confused by our friendship” and the duo met after she “stalked her” on Instagram.

“Morgan is 100% herself. No excuses. No apologies. And there was something very freeing about that to me,” she continued in the confessional. “I’m someone who is always so worried about everything being so together and perfect that I honestly was just really taken by that.”

Lying on the table and prepped to receive her tattoo, Kyle asked Morgan to hold her hand. Despite Morgan’s reprimands about staying still as the artist worked, Kyle laughed as Morgan cracked jokes.

“Everyone’s always like, how are they friends?” Kyle said. “You’ve taught me that I can’t judge a book by the cover.”

The Halloween actress eventually arrived home to find her husband Mauricio Umansky sitting in his office over copies of his new book, The Deal Maker. Kyle shared that she had gotten a new piece of body art with a bit of hesitation after Mauricio, 53, warned her about adding more ink to her body.

“Honey, what are you doing?” he asked as Kyle assured him that the tattoo was small. She explained that she went with a hip placement so “not many” people would be able to see it.

When Mauricio asked if she had gotten his name tattooed, she said “no” and revealed the celestial bodies on her lower half.

“Who’s gonna see this?” she said to which he replied, “Well, I hope I get to see it… I mean, like, often.”

Kyle may not have Mauricio’s name permanently etched on her skin, but Morgan will forever hold a piece of the RHOBH star on her body.

While getting ready for her THC dinner with the housewives, Kyle revealed that she had tattooed the letter “K” on the country singer’s arm. “No one else can say they’ve been tattooed by Kyle Richards,” Morgan quipped on a table in a flashback.

Elsewhere in the episode, Kyle’s guests began arriving for dinner. Before the chef made his introductions about their cannabis-infused meal, Sutton Stracke pulled her aside to put their drama behind them.

The southern business woman, 52, rehashed the events at her home and explained her “aggressive” behavior. At the time of their fallout, Sutton revealed that her ex-husband, Christian, announced his continental move to London and demanded that she and their son James move with him.

Stressed out about the new developments in her personal life, Sutton shared that she lashed out on Kyle and assured her friend she wouldn’t be moving, but in fact would be receiving full custody of her son and increased child support payments.

“Why is it a problem if your money is getting increased?” asked Kyle, confused about Sutton’s issues.

Sutton accused her of not being “sympathetic” to her problems, which led to Kyle claiming she was “out of touch.”

“You’re not the friend that I know right now,” Sutton replied, as Crystal Minkoff entered the room to grab the ladies for dinner. Unable to see eye-to-eye, Sutton eventually left for the dining room as Kyle yelled after her, “If you have something you want to say just f—ing say it, Sutton.”

With tensions running high, everyone found their seat and Crystal asked the pair to air out their differences before dinner started.

Kyle accused Sutton for making “veiled threats” and asked her to elaborate on the problems she believed she had behind doors. When Sutton finally confronted Kyle about the details she was omitting about her life, the guests looked around the room in confusion until Garcelle Beauvais finally brought up the subject of her marriage.

“What’s up with the new [wedding] band?” she asked as Sutton chimed in, “You haven’t been wearing your wedding ring.”

When Garcelle asked if the new ring was a “makeup band” from Mauricio after he made a mistake in their marriage, Kyle revealed that she bought the piece of jewelry for herself.

“So what you’re saying is if my husband cheated on me?” she exclaimed and the room went silent. Taking a thoughtful chew, Sutton replied, “Did I say that?”

“We’ve had a hard time, I’ve not had a great year,” Kyle explained before noting how she’s previously shared her marriage had been going through a rough patch at the housewives’ spiritual retreat. “Is that not enough for you guys? Do you want more? Do you want my husband to have cheated and bought me that band?”

“Everyone’s saying what’s going on with you?” she fired back. “If I’m having a good time and I’m exercising and not drinking because guess what, even if I have two glasses of wine, the next day I feel down and depressed.”

She added, “I can’t afford to be depressed right now.”

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
