Kyle Richards’ weight loss recently got tongues wagging about the method she employed to lose weight. Amid Kyle Richards’ ozempic claims, the actress retorted that she didn’t employ the artificial methods fans accused her of using. Find out the full story below.
Kyle Richards Shuts Down Ozempic Claims
Fans first noticed Kyle Richards’ weight loss at the People’s Choice Awards in December 2022. This came after she revealed she decided on “no carbs, no sugar, no alcohol” in an October 2022 interview with Review Journal.
However, when followers accused her of using Ozempic, the Type 2 diabetes medication popular for weight loss, Kyle shut them down. Recently, the socialite needed to respond to the rumors off-camera after they came up again.
Kyle responded to one user under a January 5 snap on Instagram of herself and her girlfriends after a workout, “I am NOT on ozempic.” In a second response, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star said, “Never have been.”
However, the speculations didn’t stop there. Under a second post on Instagram by Page Six on January 16, people again raised the Ozempic question.

“I’m honest about what I do,” the 54-year-old continued. “But if giving plastic surgery the credit makes you feel better then pop off sister,” she responded with a kissing-face emoji.
Ozempic Helped Remi Bader
Although Kyle Richards denies using the diabetes treatment pen, other celebrities, including influencer Remi Bader, have used it. The latter recently opened up about how using Ozempic to treat her type 2 diabetes affected her overall health. The TikTok influencer said it was novel and newly approved at the time, so she was “scared” to try it.
“They said I need this. And I had a lot of mixed feelings,” she said on the January 12 episode of the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast. Remi explained that it controlled her cravings, and she wasn’t feeling hungry for long.
The TikToker decided to stop using it to avoid getting addicted to it. However, the minute she went off the drug, it caused a cycle of “bad binging.” Remi explained that when she saw a doctor, he admitted that her excessive binging was due to the drug. “So, then I kind of blamed Ozempic,” she concluded.
E! News also reached out to a rep for Novo Nordisk, who said Ozempic is “not approved for chronic weight management.” The brand’s statement said it’s intended to treat type 2 diabetes, improve blood sugar and reduce the risk of major cardiovascular events for adults with the condition.
Abusing a drug when one does not even need it is dangerous. It is good that RHOBH star Kyle Richards‘ weight loss is not from Ozempic or excessive plastic surgery. Hopefully, this will encourage others to put it in the discipline they need to achieve their weight loss goals.
