Kim Richards has filmed a one-on-one interview with Dr Phil following her embarrassing drunken behavior and arrest last week at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Richards is set to open up about her struggle with alcoholism and the grounds for her arrest in an upcoming episode of the therapy show.

An early transcript from the interview obtained by E! News showed the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star talking about her arrest. "I was angry and frightened and I was scared," she said, adding that she had no one else to blame but herself for what transpired that night. "None of this would have happened if I didn't drink."

The 50-year-old was reportedly at the Polo Lounge inside the Beverly Hills Hotel late Thursday night last week when she caused a commotion after a bartender, who decided she has had enough to drink, refused to serve her more, Mirror learned from another source. Richards became very angry, locked herself in a bathroom and refused to come out.

The cops were then called in and later brought her to the police station, where she allegedly kicked an officer. She was arrested on a slew of charges namely trespassing, public intoxication, resisting an officer and battery on a police officer. She was later bailed out but is due to appear at the LAX Superior Court on June 10.

Kim’s RHOBH cast mates, including her sister Kyle Richards, have expressed their concern and support for her ever since her arrest. Meanwhile, a separate report by Mirror claimed that the bosses behind the Bravo reality show are considering booting her out of the show out fear of being held responsible if something happens to her while she was on the show.

Although a set of producers said it would be cruel of them to turn their back on Richards now that she was doing well with her sobriety, others claim that she “goes off the rails” when the cameras are off. No decision has been made as of the moment, as filming for the next season isn’t due to start up for another few months.

Richards, who is also Paris Hilton’s aunt, has always been open with her alcohol abuse problems, which even became a major storyline on the fifth season of RHOBH. She has admitted to checking into rehab at least three times now, the most recent being in 2011.

Richards’ interview with Dr. Phil is due to air on April 28. Many are hoping that it would give light to what the reality star is really going through and how she was going to deal with the repercussions from her arrest.
