Adrienne Maloof was an original cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills since season 1 but left abruptly in season 3 after a huge secret was revealed about her family. Next to Lisa Vanderpump, Adrienne had one of the most opulent lives out of all the RHOBH stars. Along with her brothers, she owned the Palms Casino Resort in Las Vegas. During her time in RHOBH, she treated her other castmates to events like basketball games and concerts, where they experienced the utmost VIP treatment.

While there was plenty of fighting going on in RHOBH, Adrienne was usually the peacemaker of the group. However, in RHOBH season 3, Adrienne ruffled fellow castmate Brandi Glanville’s feathers when she inserted herself into a private conversation Brandi was having with Kim Richards. Adrienne caught Kim wiping a tear away and pointed it out across the table. Brandi felt bad that Kim was put on the spot and told Adrienne,“Shut the f**** up.”
