When a rat unexpectedly climbed onto Kyle Richards’ parked car, she found herself in a moment of panic. Richards shared the incident on social media site Instagram, finding humor in the situation.
In a video posted Monday night, Richards explained that she had stopped for coffee and was checking emails when she noticed the furry rodent perched by her rearview mirror. The rat stared at her intensely, leaving Richards baffled and alarmed. She captured the surreal encounter on her phone, asking for help from a passerby who unfortunately couldn’t hear her pleas.
Kyle Richards’ video did not resolve the crisis, but in the comments, she revealed that the rat eventually left after about five minutes, allowing her to regain her composure. She humorously described her initial fear of moving her car or putting her legs down due to the rat’s presence.
In response to the video, celebrities like Chrissy Teigen and Paulina Porizkova found the rat adorable, expressing how they would have been tempted to pet it. Meanwhile, Richards had been busy filming “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” alongside other cast members, at Sutton Stracke’s Surrealism Ball over the weekend.
Kyle Richards is the only original member of “RHOBH” remaining from the show’s debut in 2010, with other initial castmates having moved on. One of her Instagram followers jokingly suggested that if the rat were a cast member, its tagline would be: “I’m not the richest mouse in Beverly Hills, but I am the luckiest.”
