Kim Richards is clearly enjoying the support of friends as she makes her way back to health after a tumultuous few months.
The former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, who is not returning for the upcoming season of the hit Bravo series, posted a pic on Instagram on Thursday that showed her catching up with former costars Brandi Glanville and Yolanda Foster.
"I had a great birthday lunch with my girls," Richards wrote. "Love you."
Glanville also shared a photo on Twitter of their happy reunion, captioning it, "Birthday lunch for my friend @KimRichards11 with the strong & Amazing @YolandaHFoster #real friends."

The former child star, who turned 51 on Saturday, Sept. 19, was admitted to the hospital last month by concerned family members after she was allegedly caught shoplifting at a Target in L.A.'s San Fernando Valley. She was accused of stealing more than 100 items from the store, worth a total of about $612.
The troubled sister of Kyle Richards was arrested for public intoxication, battery, and resisting arrest in April after getting into a drunken confrontation with police at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
She checked into rehab but left in July after one month in treatment. Her struggle with sobriety — and the rift it caused between the sisters — has been documented in past seasons of the reality show.
On Saturday, Kim reunited with her fellow reality star sibling and posted a photo on Instagram that showed them smiling as Kyle rested her hand on her big sister's shoulder.
"Spent some fun quality time with my sister," Kim captioned the pic. "Life is Good."
