The dazzling women holding diamonds in "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" return for season 9 premiering February 12^th. Returning housewives Erika Girardi, Dorit Kemsley, Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave, Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, and Lisa Vanderpump will be joined by a new housewife Denise Richards and Camille Grammer will also appear in episodes this season.

"The epitome of a working mom - perfectly blending her carefree California attitude with the glamour of a Hollywood actress - newcomer Denise uses her very-direct demeanor to carve out a place amongst the opinionated group, which she finds is both a blessing and a curse," say the Bravo press release.

There has been a lot of recent drama surrounding Lisa Vanderpump and the rest of the ladies, which we'll hopefully see play out. As Camille prepares for her wedding day, Vanderpump is noticeably absent at the nuptials in Hawaii.

According to Bravo, "This season, the stakes are higher than ever for each of the ladies, and while there is no shortage of laughs, they are forced to navigate a string of confrontations that could change the dynamic of the friends group forever. "

Season 9 of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" premieres Tuesday, February 12 at 9pm ET on Bravo.
