On Season 13, Episode 7 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Kyle, Kim, and Dorit Kemsley were on a hike when Kim shared that staying home amid the COVID-19 pandemic resulted in her exploring a new passion. 

"I really haven't left the house since lockdown," Kim said. "Fortunately for me, I started using that time to really work more on myself. Then, I started coloring on the walls."

As Kyle explained in an interview, "Kim went through a really hard time during the pandemic. She was one of those people that did not leave her home. So for me to see her painting and out and socializing with people, that makes me happy."

Kim was eager to show Kyle and Dorit her artwork, and Kyle was shocked by what she saw. "What the heck was that?" Kyle asked. "Kim, that's actually really good. Like, why do you know how to do this all of a sudden?"

Kim declared, "I really love doing it," and shared that she wanted to create some special art for Kathy Hilton's newborn grandson, who is now ten months old. "I said to Kathy, tell Paris [Hilton] if she wants anything on the walls for Phoenix, I am down to do that."

Although Kyle shared during the episode, which aired on December 6, that she had yet to meet Phoenix, she gave an exciting update at BravoCon 2023. "I ended up seeing the baby at my niece Whitney's wedding in Aspen when my entire family was there," she told a fan during an audience Q&A.

At BravoCon 2023, Kyle shared more details on her relationship with both of her sisters as she navigates her separation from Mauricio Umansky.

"Both of them have been very, very supportive," Kyle said. "It's rare to get everybody good at the same time. So, I'm just enjoying this moment." (Watch the video above to get more of Kathy's thoughts on Kyle's marriage.)

During a different panel, Kyle was asked how she would feel about the idea of Kim making her return to RHOBH. As she explained, "I think it would be interesting to see where [Kim] is at in her life now, and it would just be fun to have her back."
