When Kim Richards slid into her bathtub on April 25, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum was no doubt expecting a peaceful soak. That's not what she got. As she documented in her Instagram Stories, Kim had an unexpected intruder in her bathing experience, and it was enough to give anyone a little jolt. 

How to Watch

"So as I was enjoying my beautiful bath this morning.. a little friend decided to join me," Kim shared with her followers. "I am not afraid of lizards!! but that little guy was NOT there when I got in.. & I prefer to [bathe] alone!!! Lol So as you can imagine I was quite startled."

The tale gets more creepy-crawly from there: 

"While I was relaxing and looked over only to see [the lizard] swimming in my [tub] with me," she shared. "He must have come thru the jets of my jacuzzi?? Either way, I did let out quite a scream and flew out of my bath." Is anyone else feeling some vicarious shivers? 

Luckily, this story has a happy, peaceful ending for both human and reptile alike. "I regrouped, scooped him up and now he is in my garden," Kim shared. But she didn't sign off without adding a friendly reminder for the scaly creature. "Please stay there my little friend!!!"
