Meanwhile, Lisa Vanderpump, Brandi Glanville, Adrienne Maloof, Yolanda Hadid, Kim, and Kyle head across the Atlantic for a glamorous girls’ trip filled with shopping, sightseeing, fashion, and — because this is Beverly Hills — plenty of unresolved drama. We’re recapping the Kim and Kyle vs. Taylor confrontation, Taylor’s decision to stay home, the Housewives’ arrival in Paris, and the beginning of what promises to be a very dramatic European getaway. Follow the podcast, leave a five-star review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify, and tell us: Would you have gone to Paris with this group knowing the drama you were leaving behind at home?
