According to Kathy, Kim is doing "great" in her treatment. “She’s doing really, really well. I’m very proud of her. She decided on her own to go.”

Well, that's a good sign!

This is Kim's second time in rehab since 2012. On April 15,  Kim was arrested after a drunken meltdown at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Since the incident, Kim has been formally charged with battery of a police officer, public intoxication, and resisting arrest.

The eldest of the  Richards sisters offered her opinion on the benefits of Kim being on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

“I think the show has been really great. I mean she’s a professional. She’s an actress. But this is real.

Kim needs to learn tools to cope when there is something that is upsetting. You have to learn to use the tools to not fall off the wagon.”

Many would presume the limelight has negatively impacted Kim's meandering sobriety, but maybe Kathy means the, ahem, financial stability RHOBH provides?

Kim and her other sister, Kyle, are currently not on speaking terms.

Regardless, it bodes well that Kathy, who normally avoids speaking to the press about her family, seems confident in her sister's recovery.

We're rooting for you, Kim!
