One of the most prominent names in Hollywood, Richards took the world by storm by her gorgeous looks and brilliant acting in the mid-90s and early 2000s.

The movie received positive reviews from critics as well as audiences and Richards was praised for her acting.
Since 2015, she was an integral part of the reality TV series ‘Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ and once again, rose to fame after a lean period. However, the actress left the show in 2020 after several reports indicated that Bravo TV did not give her the money she asked for.
