Kyle Richards is shutting down those steamy reconciliation whispers with her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky. The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star set the record straight on Watch What Happens Live, calling out a fabricated New Year's Eve sighting in Aspen. While divorce papers remain unsigned, the pair have been hashing out next steps.
Oh, honey, the tea is piping hot but Kyle Richards is here to cool it down! Back in July 2023, the RHOBH icon and Mauricio Umansky called it quits after 27 years of marriage—or at least announced their split, since they'd been separated for a bit already, per People Magazine. Fast-forward to February, and Kyle spilled on what went wrong: "Every situation, every marriage is different. For us, it had nothing to do with the show." She called Mau a "great husband" and "great dad," but admitted her jet-setting life didn't help matters. 😏
Lately, tongues have been wagging about the exes getting cozy—rumors of them "canoodling" in Aspen on New Year's Eve had everyone buzzing. But on the January 29 episode of Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live, Kyle wasn't having it. "It honestly was…someone just made that story up," she said flatly. Eyes emoji for the shade!
As for the D-word? Dorit Kemsley speculated on the latest RHOBH episode that Kyle's holding off on filing in hopes of rekindling the flame. Kyle updated Andy: "We have had conversations that we had not had during this season since then. We still haven’t filed, but we’ve had conversations since then about what it’s going to look like and all of that." It's messy, alright—Mau even had a girlfriend at one point, and Kyle tried dating too. On the December 11 RHOBH episode, she got real: "Since separating from Mau, I was in a very vulnerable place in my life and I fell hard for this person." But alas, "All the speculation and the gossip and the talking is what ultimately ended it." Facepalm.
Divorce is a beast, and with no papers filed yet, who knows? So, darlings, is this amicable split heading for a plot twist, or just more Hollywood drama? Spill your thoughts!
