Kim Richards has reportedly been receiving treatment for her substance abuse issues at a new rehab facility for the past few days.

The 50-year-old The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star entered rehab again less than two weeks after exiting a Malibu treatment facility to attend her daughter Brooke Brinson's wedding in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, E! News reported.
"She's doing ok, a lot better than she had been," a source told E! News.
It remains unclear what the Bravo reality star had been doing in the days leading up to this new rehab attempt.
Richards had been staying at a different treatment center following her April arrest in which she had made a drunken scene at the Beverly Hilton Hotel and was later charged with one count of public intoxication; one count of resisting, obstructing, delaying a peace officer or EMT; and one count of battery upon a peace office.

"Kim went to rehab finally because she got arrested, she humiliated her kids and she wants to avoid jail," a source told People at the time of Richards' initial rehab stint for which she had volunteered.
Richards' close friend and co-star Brandi Glanville recently said on her podcast she last saw Richards at the Brinson wedding and "she was in a good place."
"I don't want anything bad to happen to her because she's got a really good heart at the end of the day," Glanville reportedly added.
Richards, who also tried rehab for alcoholism back in December 2011, is scheduled to be arraigned for the April incident on June 11 at the Los Angeles Courthouse.
The fifth season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills just wrapped in late April.
