They may be known as The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills

…  but not to Ken Todd.

To Ken Todd, the long-time husband of veteran reality star Lisa Vanderpump, they should really be known as The Real Backstabbers Who Totally Suck of Beverly Hills.

On the occasion of his very own birthday this past Sunday, Todd took to Twitter and absolutely blasted each and every one of his wife’s co-stars.

Or former co-stars, we should now write, considering Vanderpump left the Bravo franchise this month after nine memorable seasons.

"Yes, it’s my birthday and normally positive things happen on this day! So I would like to get some things off my chest," Ken opened his viral rant, continuing as follows:

"It’s a year next month that all the negativity against my wife started. I know I am not the most eloquent writer — I see and speak in simple terms.

"This year, there has been a huge amount of nastiness that has pushed my wife to the brink. When, at a time in her life like this, she needed her friends!"

The past several months really have been challenging for Vanderpump.

Her brother, Mark, died from a drug overdose last spring — and, while grieving personally, Lisa has since butted heads with several of her castmates, including Kyle Richards, Lisa Rinna, Teddi Mellencamp and Erika Jayne.

Perhaps most notably, Vanderpump was at the center of PuppyGate, an actual scandal in which Dorit Kemsley adopted a pet from Vanderpump Dogs… alleged that it nipped at her kids… and then returned it to a shelter, instead of two Lisa’s aforementioned organization.

From there, Vanderpump was accused of leaking a story about Kemsley’s dog to the press, an act she has since denied.

She even took a lie detector on air to prove her innocence.

Added Todd in his diatribe yesterday:

"What really irks me is the hypocrisy of this whole matter.

"The very PUBLIC issues — lawsuits, over 50 million dollars of them, loans in default, rehab, business misdoings, bankruptcies — have all been swept under the carpet.

"Lifestyles paid for with other people’s money, I call bullsh-t!"

Todd did not cite any Bravo personalities by name in his message.

However, the only time anyone’s financial matters were brought up during shooting was on the second-to-last episode of this season, where Camille Grammer accused Kemsley and her husband of owing a friend of hers $1 million.

Grammer also wondered how Kemsley could afford all of her expensive cars and clothes given her alleged knowledge that PK is bankrupt.

Again, Todd does not mention this incident in particular.

But he does touch on PuppyGate, specifically to how Lisa and her team helped pass House Resolution 401, which calls for an end to the dog and cat meat industry.

"It disgusts me that the very fact that a resolution passed through Congress, in an attempt to save thousands of dogs worldwide, was brushed aside — years of our work was ignored as all the focus was on just one dog (that is now in a happy home, not biting, pecking or whatever you choose to call it).

"I am not asking for anything now, not even 5 grand owed to our dog charity. But I am asking for this hatred to stop! I didn’t want my wife to go to the reunion as it has been bullying.

"Yes, I used that word, bullying, because that is what this nonstop attack has been."

The $5,000 Ken mentions here is the fee Vanderpump Dogs charges people whose adopted puppies end up anywhere other than at their rescue center.

It was a fee Vanderpump and Todd initially waived when they found out Dorit’s puppy, Lucy Lucy Apple Juice, ended up at what they claim was a high-kill shelter in Orange County as part of PuppyGate.

"It sickened me to see my wife in tears and I am proud of her even doing the Angel Food when she has been so down," Ken added in regard to LVP’s weekend appearance at a Project Angel Food charity event.

He then went into the allegation Grammer made during the season and then accused Kyle Richards of saying off camera — that Vanderpump has "bad breath."

Seriously, dude went deep in this rant.

"To now attack her personal hygiene disgusts me, I could put it out here that my wife’s breath is as sweet as she is, as I am the one who kisses her daily I should know," Ken wrote.

"I am so angry as it is a vile lie…like so many other things that have been said about her.

"Attacking our [kids’] businesses, Vanderpump Rosé, which we have all worked hard on is just mean spirited! It’s in some of the best restaurants in the world."

In conclusion?

"Their pettiness says everything. There are so many things WE could’ve said but haven’t…

‘So it’s not just Goodbye Kyle that I want to say…it’s goodbye to all of the vicious nastiness…there I feel much better now. Happy birthday to me."
