==Recurring Characters==

===Cedric Martinez===
<small>(Season 1 - present)</small>

Cedric Martinez is a former model, restauranteur and nightclub host, born in Paris, France. He worked for Lisa Vanderpump and Ken Todd for many years and became the "face" of their wildly popular London nightclub, Shadow Lounge. In the process Martinez lived as part of the Vanderpump-Todd "family" and eventually moved into their Beverly Hills mansion, while he helped to make Villa Blanca the celebrity hot spot it became. Cedric and Vanderpump had a mysterious falling out at the end of season one, after which Vanderpump embarked on a cryptic media campaign; including several odd interviews with Us Weekly alleging that, after knowing and working with Martinez for over ten years, she suddenly discovered he was "lazy," adding, "I will sue if he sells any stories about me," although Martinez vehemently denies ever threatening to do so. In Todd's own interview with Us Weekly, he alleges he was so fearful Cedric might become violent that he filed a police report; although the Beverly Hills Police Department says the report "does not exist." Preview clips indicate there will be even more major drama between Martinez and the Todd-Vanderpumps during season two and Star magazine has reported that Russell Armstrong was helping Martinez develop and sell his "tell all" memoir before Armstrong's suicide.

|ShortSummary= Kyle visits her psychic and discusses problems she's been having with Kim. At a lunch, Lisa questions Taylor about what Taylor said to Camille before the fight in New York City, but Taylor says she only has a problem with Kim. Lisa and Ken finally ask Cedric to move out of their house, but he is reluctant to leave. Russell throws Taylor a 39th birthday party where Taylor confronts Kim about New York, which spirals into an argument between a (somewhat drunk) Kim and the rest of the housewives. Camille does not attend Taylor's party because she is still recovering from the heartbreak of Kelsey's dumping her. After the fight, Kim attempts to leave the party, and Adrienne gives her advice on how to mend the relationship between Kim and Kyle. However, Kyle gets into the limo and an altercation ensues when Kim calls Kyle a liar, and then Kyle calls Kim "sick" and "an alcoholic," vowing to not support her any more.

In the process Martinez lived as part of the Vanderpump-Todd "family" and eventually moved into their Beverly Hills mansion, while he helped to make Villa Blanca the celebrity hot spot it became. Cedric and Vanderpump had a mysterious falling out at the end of season one, after which Vanderpump embarked on a cryptic media campaign; including several odd interviews with Us Weekly alleging that, after knowing and working with Martinez for over ten years, she suddenly discovered he was "lazy," adding, "I will sue if he sells any stories about me," although Martinez vehemently denies ever threatening to do so. In Todd's own interview with Us Weekly, he alleges he was so fearful Cedric might become violent that he filed a police report; although the Beverly Hills Police Department says the report "does not exist." Preview clips indicate there will be even more major drama between Martinez and the Todd-Vanderpumps during season two and Star magazine has reported that Russell Armstrong was helping Martinez develop and sell his "tell all" memoir before Armstrong's suicide.

The Beverly Hills bombshells are back for a second season of over the top glitz and glamour. In the first episode, the ladies attend a sumptuous dinner party at Adrienne’s home to celebrate Camille’s guest-starring role on a major sitcom. However, tensions arise and true feelings begin to show, revealing what could be a very big divide in the ladies' friendships. Taylor is flustered after a chance meeting with Cedric because she fears the wrath of Lisa. At Adrienne's dinner party (after Taylor opens up about her marriage counseling), Lisa's husband, Ken, verbally attacks Taylor, saying: "If I had to go see a (marriage) therapist...I would feel weak." Later, as Kyle comforts a distraught Taylor in the bathroom, Lisa barges in; interrupting and manipulating a sensitive moment.
2"Blame It on the Attitude"September 12, 20111.555[46]
After a very tough year and a very public divorce, Camille must say goodbye to her gorgeous Colorado home, so she invites the ladies to hit the slopes in style.

But after a day of laughter and fun, Taylor opens up to her friends about some very serious problems in her marriage.
3"Rocky Mountain Highs and Lows"September 19, 20111.709[47]
Adrienne’s family is forced to make some very serious decisions that could potentially move their NBA team to a rival city. She heads to Sacramento for what could be the team’s last home game ever and invites Kim along for the ride. However, Kim clearly seems to be under the influence, and the issue that has been on everyone’s mind since last year is finally addressed when Adrienne questions her sobriety.
4"Gossip Girls"September 26, 20111.878[48]
The tension is high not only for the ladies, but also for Adrienne’s NBA team. Adrienne, Paul and Kim attend the last game of the season – but the fans are not happy with the potential move and things get dangerous for the Maloof family. Meanwhile, back in Beverly Hills, Kyle throws a charity cocktail party to raise money for the Lollipop Theater Network. The focus, however, turns to an unexpected guest named Brandi, who is friends with Cedric which leads to an awkward and petty confrontation by Lisa who still, clearly, hasn't gotten over Cedric. Then, at a business meeting at Sur, Lisa belittles Ken by making fun of his dyed hair.
5"$25,000 Sunglasses?!"October 3, 20111.966[49]
Adrienne throws a lavish barbecue, Beverly Hills style. She invites her friend Brandi, and while Brandi and Camille seem to bond instantly over their very public and very ugly high-profile divorces, the other ladies are shocked by this newcomer’s numerous social faux pas. They begin to wonder what she’s doing on their turf and if she will fit into their social circle.
6"Let the Games Begin"October 10, 20111.912[50]
The ladies "innocent" game night spirals seriously out of control when a disheveled and shaky Kim suspiciously spends most of the night in the bathroom and includes Dana's desperate sucking up (to Kim and Kyle). The night ends with a jaw-dropping fight caused by Kim and Kyle's nasty attacks on self-described "slut" Brandi; who calmly calls out an obviously under-the-influence Kim. But the most shocking thing about this episode was "event planner" Dana's incredibly weak attempt at hosting an event. Awkward.
