Kyle Richards has stopped caring what people think about her.

The 55-year-old reality star called time on her marriage to Mauricio Umansky after more than 25 years together but after getting two new butterflies inked onto her chest, she has decided to only do what "feels really good" to her.

She told UsWeekly: "After I got it, I said to the tattoo artist, ‘I can’t believe I did that. That was really brave of me'. I don’t care what anybody thinks anymore. I’m going to do what I want. It feels really good!"

The 'Halloween Ends' star - who has Alexia, 28, Sophie, 24, and 16-year-old Portia with Mauricio as well as Farrah, 36, with her first husband Guraish Aldjufrie - is the only remaining original cast member on 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' and admitted that she is a "very different person" now from when the show began in 2010.

She said: "I’m a very different person than I was 14 years ago. I was raised not to talk about or share certain things, so I came into the show with that mentality. It took me a long time to get to this place, but it’s been therapeutic. I’m sharing more than I would’ve felt comfortable [with] a year or two years ago."

"It was such a different time. I had a Blackberry back then — that’s how you know the show is old! We’d be doing an interview, and they’d say, 'How much did this cost?' and 'How much did you spend on this party?' [That] was so weird for me."

But Kyle also admitted that she was hesitant to sign onto the Bravo series in the first place because of how she had initially been an actress, not a personality.

She said: "I didn’t want to do it because I’m an actress. But it kept coming up, and Portia was little, so I was like, 'I can just hang out with my kids, and they can follow me around.' I was very naive."
