We Have an Update on the RHOBH Fox Force Five’s Friendship Status
Find out where Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, and Lisa Rinna stand today.
Friendships are often put to the test on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, Dorit Kemsley, Lisa Rinna, and Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave formed tight-knit bonds with one another during their time on the show together.
Several years after the ladies, who have referred to themselves as the “Fox Force Five,” first became close, we have an update on where they stand today.
The Current Status of the Fox Force Five
Four of the five ladies in the aforementioned Fox Force Five group have birthdays within just a few weeks of one another in July: Teddi’s was on the 1st, Erika’s was on the 10th, Lisa’s was on the 11th, and Dorit will celebrate hers on the 14th.
In honor of Lisa’s birthday on July 11, a few of the Fox Force Five ladies took to Instagram to pay tribute. Kyle shared an Instagram Story featuring an image of the group to wish the other four ladies happy birthdays.
“Happy Birthday [Lisa,] [Erika, and] almost birthday to [Dorit] And belated to [Teddi],” she wrote in the text on her post, tagging the ladies and adding a “Cancer Season” icon. Teddi reposted the image to her Stories and added a series of five pink heart emojis at the bottom.
Erika also commemorated the occasion by calling Lisa the Louise to her Thelma (referencing the 1991 drama Thelma & Louise).
“Happy birthday Louise!!!” she wrote in the caption of her post. “You are a true friend and one of the strongest people I’ve ever known. I look forward to making more memories together.”
Dorit called Lisa “the queen of all things” in her post. “From rosé in France to tequila in Mexico and Harry’s bolognese in between I’ve loved all of it with you!” she wrote. “So many memories, so many laughs, and so many more still to come! Love you loads!”
How the Fox Force Five Nickname Got Started
In a clip from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 11 After Show, Kyle opened up to her sister Kathy Hilton about how the group ended up going by the Pulp Fiction–inspired Fox Force Five name.
“Oh my god. I hate that name,” Kyle told her sister, which you can see for yourself in the clip above. “Lisa Rinna, like, put that on a photo once, and it kind of stuck. I don’t even know what it means. Someone told me that they think it’s from Pulp Fiction or something.”
