Kim Richards is out of rehab and speaking out about her relapse and subsequent arrest following a drunken night at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

She cited many factors for her relapse – not speaking with her sister Kylie Richards, giving away her dog and dealing with her ex-husband Monty’s illness.

"I love sobriety," she told ET Online. “I've always loved sobriety, and relapsing was very hard for me. It was not easy. I have to say, don't take this wrong, but I really wanted to go to treatment because I needed a break from what I was going through at home."

She was arrested in April and checked into rehab for the fourth time thereafter. She said it was time much needed away to focus on herself.

“I dug deep into my past, things that happened to me as a child, good and bad, teenage years, relationships with all my loved ones, where they need to be mended, where they’re very powerful. I worked on me,” she explained.

As for Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, she revealed, "They have asked me to come back."
