She's baaack!

As E! News first told you, Camille Grammer will indeed be returning to the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills after it was previously announced she wouldn't be back as a regular castmember for season three. Earlier this month, Grammer was spotted shooting scenes for the show at castmate Kyle Richards' birthday party.

And now she tells us...

She'll definitely appear on the show next season!

"I will be a part of production again," Grammer, 43, said at the Race to Erase MS gala in L.A. "I guess it was something I couldn't let go of. I really enjoy being with the women and working with the producers. They're like my extended dysfunctional family."

And it sounds like there will be plenty of dysfunction during season three of the hit reality series. "There's definitely drama," Grammer laughed. "The girls are bringing it."

Meanwhile, Kelsey Grammer's ex-wife is getting pretty serious with her "Greek god" boyfriend Dimitri Charalambopoulos. "He's going to bring me to his family home in Greece," Grammer dished. "We were talking about two or three weeks. Travel the Greek islands together, meet his family and cousins."

Grammer wasn't the only Housewives star who hit the benefit event with a date. Kim Richards, 47, walked the carpet and posed for pictures arm-in-arm with home security businessman Keith Leedom.

"That is Keith," she smiled coyly. "He's my friend Keith." Leedom assured us that there's no hanky-panky going on between him and Richards. "There's nothing romantic, we're just friends," he said.

"I feel really, really good. I feel great," Richards, who sought treatment for addiction earlier this year, said. "I'm just really working on me every day. Honestly, I exercise and I work with my life coach. I'm enjoying my children. I'm really just enjoying life."

And does life still include the reality show? Richards wouldn't say. "What show?" she smiled. "What are you talking about?"
