Kim Richards phenomenal' after rehab

17th January 2012

Kim Richards is feeing "phenomenal" after spending the past few weeks in a rehabilitation facility.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star attended the Weinstein Company Golden Globes after party and looked on great form.

The 47-year-old sought help after her increasingly bizarre behaviour left show executives giving her an ultimatum of getting help or being kicked off the show, it was reported.

But now the bubbly reality star says she is doing great and is enjoying her time back home.

"It's going really well," she told Life & Style magazine. "I'm feeling phenomenal."

Kim started treatment in December for alcohol abuse and other "serious issues".

But her sister Kyle Richards, who is also aunt to socialite Paris Hilton, says Kim is getting back on track.

"She's really strong right now, happy," Kyle shared. "She's looking forward to moving on in her life."

The mother-of-four is a former Disney actress, starring in several films in the 70s and 80s but faded into obscurity until her role in the hit reality show.

Kim visited rehab several times in the past and almost died of alcohol poisoning years ago.
