Kyle Richards’ Longtime Bestie Joins RHOBH Season 15?! Meet Christine Blackman!

According to a production insider, Christine Blackman, Kyle Richards’ decades-long bestie, is officially stepping into the diamond-drenched chaos of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 15. Now, before you clutch your pearls — no, it’s not confirmed whether she’s getting a full-time diamond or just that sneaky little “friend of” status… yet.

Producers are reportedly playing it smart — testing the waters, seeing how Christine fits in. But spoiler alert: so far, she’s delivering the goods.

💎 Here’s What We Know About Christine Blackman:

    •    She’s stunning, she’s successful, and she’s not new to the glam game.

    •    Christine is married to Hollywood heavyweight Steve Blackman, the executive producer/writer behind The Umbrella Academy, Private Practice, Bones, and Fargo. So yes, this girl has Hollywood credentials.

    •    She’s been Kyle’s ride-or-die for years — and we mean years. Their photo history runs deep. Think vintage glam, pre-Housewives red carpets, and real-deal friendship.

    •    She was spotted filming in Sedona, Arizona, this week during the cast trip — meaning she’s already in the mix of the Season 15 drama.

💎 Why This Is a Big Deal

Let’s face it — after the whole Morgan Wade storyline and the Mauricio mess, Kyle could use a little backup. And producers know that bringing in someone with genuine history and organic ties to the cast = ratings gold.

Christine isn’t some rando plucked from central casting — she’s got real money, a real marriage, and actual Beverly Hills clout. Plus? Rumor has it she’s not afraid to speak her mind.

Could she be the next queen bee? Or is she just there to prop Kyle up while the rest of the women come for her diamonds and her dignity? Only time (and editing) will tell.
