Denise Richards teases 'RHOBH' return with stunning video as fans and one costar celebrate

Is she returning to Bravo? Sure looks like it!

It appears that Denise Richards is definitely headed back to where she belongs: . After several months of rumors and chatter, the actress, 54, dropped a very heavy, very sultry hint that she's returning to the beloved Bravo reality series. 

In an Instagram video posted on Friday, the star struts down the carpeted hallway of what appears to be a hotel as Diamond Dondada's hip-hop track "She's Back" plays. The former teen model looks absolutely sensational in bootcut jeans, oversized blazer and a cleavage-enhancing rose-pink top as she tousles her hair, tugs at her belt and gives a flirty look-back as she catwalks closer into view.

"Walking into meeting the fab 3…" reads the caption. Followers immediately seized upon that "Fab 3" breadcrumb, with most reaching the same conclusion: that the trio in question are current RHOBH stars Garcelle Beauvais, Sutton Stracke, and Crystal Kung Minkoff, who have  banded together on the show. Seemingly confirming Denise's return, Sutton weighed in via the comments, noting "You know how to do this."

"Omg I have chills. We need you back queen. Hold others accountable," wrote one fan. Added another: "motherrr. Lisa Rinna could never." Soap actress Lisa Rinna, for those unfamiliar with , was a longtime star of the Bravo smash — and a longtime friend of Denise's until an intense feud tore them apart. In fact, Denise left the show in 2020 after two seasons as a result of the battle, in which Lisa and others accused Denise of cheating on her husband Aaron Phypers with another veteran, Brandi Glanville. Denise adamantly denied the rumor, and later refused to film with Lisa.

But, following Lisa's own exit from following season 12 last year, there's been increasing speculation that Denise — as well as other former stars, including Camille Grammer — might return in some capacity for season 13.

In the past few weeks, several stars of the show have begun to confirm the good news on the record. Sutton, 51, told Page Six that Denise and Camille joined her, Garcelle and Erika Jayne at costar Kyle Richards' L.A. home for a "weed dinner." She clarified: "not all of us partook and some of us did other things that were weed-involved." 

In addition to sharing the screen on RHOBH, Denise and Garcelle, both veteran Hollywood actresses for decades, are particularly close, and Garcelle fiercely defended Denise against the allegations.

The premiere date for season 13 of has not yet been announced.
