“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” newbie Annemarie Wiley is sounding off on Denise Richards’ eyebrow-raising — and “very sloppy” — return to the reality show.
“It was a little bit awkward to be around, honestly,” Wiley, 40, says on Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast. “And it was a little bit uncomfortable to see it after the fact.”
Richards, 52, has made multiple cameos on Season 13 of the Bravo hit.
During a weed-filled dinner at “RHOBH” OG Kyle Richards’ house, she came for Erika Jayne — but was unable to provide a clear reason why she was upset with the “Pretty Mess” singer, 52 — amid erratic behavior that fans branded a “hot f—king mess.”
She even wore her fuzzy pink jacket upside down, as noted by astute fashionista Dorit Kemsley.
Denise later insisted in an interview with “Real Housewives of New York City” star-turned-podcast host Bethenny Frankel that she only had one drink before filming, claiming that her state of disarray was the result of mixing alcohol and cold medicine — but no marijuana.

“Denise had a few other things kind of going on at the dinner perhaps,” Wiley opines. “I don’t know.”
The Project Transition co-founder — who shares four children with her husband, former NFL pro Marcellus Wiley — believes that Denise came in with a plan to ignite Jayne’s fiery side.
“It was very clear that when Denise came in, she had an agenda. She was there for one reason and one reason only and that was to get something out of Erika,” she says. “What she wanted out of Erika, I feel like is still not actually even clear.”
Episodes later, Denise appeared at Crystal Kung Minkoff’s “Taco Tuesday” party. There, she had better success explaining her beef with Jayne.
She was still upset over a four-year-old fight with the Las Vegas performer, during which the latter suggested that her then-underage daughters knew what a threesome was.
No resolution was found and the night ended with an explosive confrontation anchored by Jayne asking who was more profitable on OnlyFans: Denise or her 19-year-old daughter, Sami Sheen, whom she shares with ex-husband Charlie Sheen.
Both women joined the platform, used primarily by sex workers, in 2022.
Wiley was not present for the exchange as she was on vacation in Hawaii at the time, but feels Jayne “ended that discussion” after watching the scene.
“You don’t want to mess with an activated Erika Jayne and Denise should know that … Denise, I don’t know why she kept trying. Erika gave it to her because she asked for it,” she says.
“And although I don’t love that they were talking about Denise’s daughter, but that’s what the original story was about — and that was long before me. She just kept pushing and Erika didn’t even want to talk about it.”
When asked whether she believes Denise began feuding with Jayne to reclaim her diamond, Wiley notes that the actress — who maintained a full-time position on “Beverly Hills” Seasons 9 and 10 — should’ve been more tactful had that been her goal.
“I mean, if that’s what she’s after, then I feel like that’s a very sloppy way of doing it,” she remarks.
“She made a really big impact, but it just wasn’t the classiest of ways to do it. So I feel like if that’s what she was after, I don’t know.”
“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. ET on Bravo.
