'RHOBH' Yolanda Foster Leaving the Show as Battle Against Lyme Disease Intensifies

There has been a lot of news coming out about season six of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. So far it has been confirmed that Kim Richards has been fired and Brandi Glanville appears to have decided not to return. Kyle Richards apparently will return and Lisa Vanderpump shot down rumors that she was finished with reality television. There have been some conflicting stories regarding the future of Yolanda Foster with the reality series. While she has not been fired, it looks like she won't be returning to the show either. Fans know that Foster has been battling Lyme disease for the last few years and that her health took a serious turn for the worse last year.

According to Inquisitr, "In December of last year, as the fifth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills came to an end, Foster suffered a Lyme disease relapse, which left the RHOBH star unable to read, write and watch television. Months later, during filming on the season five reunion special, Foster was forced to make an early exit, as her Lyme disease had gotten in the way of her group participation. In her blog the following month, the RHOBH star said she likely shouldn't have been involved in filming the reunion at all." explaind a source.

We told you in the past that Foster's beloved husband, the legendary David Foster, had encouraged his wife to walk away from all of the catty drama that encircles RHOBH. He rightfully feared that eventually, the ladies would find a reason to turn on her just as they ultimately end up turning on everyone. While Foster has hated battling Lyme Disease, she has been incredibly grateful to be able to use a reality show to bring some attention to the debilitating illness.

Are you surprised to hear that Foster is not returning to the Bravo show? It's kind of sad that one of the few women with a real story to tell is now too sick to share it, isn't it? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
