Kathy Hilton was quite active on Instagram on Tuesday night ahead of the second part of the three-part Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion.

As her ongoing feud with Lisa Rinna and the horrible things Lisa claims she said about her sister, Kyle Richards, continue to be at the forefront of the drama of the show, Kathy reacted to several comments from viewers on social media, who responded to a post that asked, “Do you believe the accusations against Kathy Hilton?”

On September 22, the Behind the Velvet Rope With David Yontef podcast shared a description of an episode of their show on their Instagram page.

Weeks later, in the comments section of the Behind the Velvet Rope With David Yontef podcast’s post, Kathy reacted to the opinions of numerous RHOBH viewers.

“You have to ask yourself this: Why didn’t Lisa call 911 or Harry Hamlin if she was so afraid that she locked herself in her room?” one person asked. “Texting [Erika Jayne] and commenting on Kathy’s behavior when Rinna is not qualified is wrong on so many levels. Rinna better be careful what words she uses to describe people, especially people with a lot of money, because last time I checked Rinna wasn’t listed as ‘Dr.’ Lisa Rinna!”

“They had a plan!” Kathy replied. “Why text [Erika]??? If she was scared call 911 … or worried about me call my sister. Not call [Erika] to gossip!”

Then, another commenter suggested that if Lisa was texting Erika, she had an opportunity to “record this meltdown.”

“VERY GOOD POINT,” a second fan responded. “Knowing Rinna if it was happening in front of her she would record it and expose it as proof instead of texting Erika, also why Erika of all people? If she’s so concerned about Kyle and their close friendship, why wouldn’t she immediately call/text Kyle so that it could be documented as some sort of proof? It makes absolutely no sense.”

And Kathy agreed, writing, “Or call my sister??? Very shady.” The initial commenter then responded, “Exactly.”

Also on Instagram, Kathy responded to a number of other people who took her side.

“Kathy could have had a meltdown. Who cares, it’s not like Rinna never had one too,” someone noted. “I don’t think Kathy broke a glass and threatened anyone, like Rinna did. Please Rinna is suffering from PTSD because of Kathy?? That’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard…”

Meanwhile, in a comment of her own, Kathy responded with a series of laughing emojis.

Another person suspected what Kyle voiced on the finale, saying, “Rinna is helping Erika deflect… Kathy gave them something and they blew it up.” And Kathy applauded the comment.

Continuing on, Kathy reacted to a message from a viewer who felt that she may have grown tired of Lisa and Erika’s dismissive attitude.

“So [many] had said some mean stuff about Kyle … For [Rinna] and Erika to take advantage of this moment to deflect and do [little] damage control is very… [sigh] smh roll my eyes lol,” they stated.

Kathy even offered a response to someone who asked if there was an online petition they could sign to have Lisa fired from RHOBH.

“So over Lisa Rinna. Is there a petition to get her off the show lol. She’s just always REACHING. Hands off [Kathy Hilton]!!!!!!!! We love [you] Kathy lol,” they stated.

Another comment Kathy seemed to appreciate read, “I don’t believe Kathy said what Rinna said she did. I don’t believe it was that bad. I think Rinna needed a storyline to deflect from Erika’s hideous meltdown the night before.”

Kathy was also forced to defend herself.

“Bravo is afraid of getting sued by the Hiltons. They are a nasty group of people. Do some Hilton research. Kathy Hilton is nasty!” a critic declared.

“I don’t think so,” Kathy replied.
