It seems that Kim Richards is taking responsibility for her actions.

We reported nearly two weeks ago that the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was arrested at the Beverly Hills Hotel’s Polo Lounge due to public intoxication. Additionally, the former child actor was charged with resisting arrest and assault after she kicked one of the police officers at the station.

Now, according to TMZ, Richards has checked herself into rehab.

Sources claim the star checked herself into rehab earlier today in Malibu to seek treatment for relapsing on her long, hard fight towards sobriety.

The rehabilitation center is a live-in facility in Malibu, and according to TMZ the place Richards chose specializes in substance abuse, and that she made the decision to enter treatment following a discussion with her four children, who we previously reported were very disappointed by their Mother’s arrest.

Could Kim be seeking treatment due to pressure from production at Bravo?

As far as the length of stay for Ms. Richards, we are uncertain. The report alleges that the long-time, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member will remain at the facility for “as long as it takes.”

Do you think Kim made the right decision?
