Denise Richards begged Bravo producers to let her ditch the recent Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast trip to Italy. Her costars Teddi Mellencamp, Lisa Rinna, Kyle Richards, Dorit Kemsley and Erika Jayne jetted off to Rome this past November and the actress tagged along with them. However, Denise wasn't totally up for a vacation.

“Denise had multiple conversations where she pleaded with producers to stay behind, but they really wanted her there and it’s her job, so she went,” the source added of the 48-year-old. “She doesn’t seem to be enjoying doing the show as much this season and nobody would be surprised if it were to be her last."

The source continued, "She wants to be doing acting more and Housewives has opened other opportunities for her. She’s really not about the drama and seems to be disconnected from it at times. A lot of the cast is frustrated with her lack of participation still this season.”

The revelation comes hot off the heels of the news that Denise was absent from filming season 10. Rumors circulated last October that she has been missing from shooting the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills due to her crazy busy work schedule and being a mom.
