Kyle Richards sets record straight on separation from Mauricio Umansky
Kyle Richards is breaking her silence on her relationship with her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 55, answered some burning questions in a recent episode, one of them pointing to why she still hasn’t been to her ex’s new condo yet.
Richards began with her shock over Umansky, 54, buying new furniture as she told costar Erika Jayne that it ended up seeming like a more permanent situation instead.
“He said, you know, ‘I need to do this. I’m going to move out for six months, we’ll figure it out,’” she says of her ex. “So I was like, ‘we’ll take it from there,’ type of thing. Then all of a sudden, he was buying stuff. This feels like he went into that thinking this was…”
“Permanent,” Jayne cut in. “More than six months.”
Richards confirmed she still has “yet to go to his place,” after which the clip cuts to another scene from the latest episode of RHOBH, where she and her estranged husband are discussing his new home.
“I’m like thinking about you in this condo, with no dogs,” she told Umansky, who then cuts in, “You haven’t been there yet.”
Richards then playfully tells him he has “no responsibilities over there,” prompting Umansky to burst into laughter.
“He’s invited me a number of times actually, it just hasn’t worked out yet — not for any particular reason. I’ve been out of town for certain things or I’ve had plans.”
She continued, “And then the Jewish holidays just passed and he said can you come over and we’ll do the holidays at my house. I was like, ‘I have more space here. You’re going to have to have to rent tables.’ So I’ve still been hosting the Jewish holiday dinners with his family.”
She noted that he’s currently “still in the same condo” but “he comes to visit” their formerly shared home from time to time.
A source close to the pair told People Magazine at the time, “Kyle and Mauricio have been separated for a while now but are still living under the same roof. They remain amicable as they figure out what’s next for them and their family.”
The exes decided on separation after 27 years of marriage. They first met at a nightclub in 1994.
The exes share three daughters Alexia, 27, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16. Richards is also mom to daughter Farrah Brittany, 36, from her first marriage to ex Guraish Aldjufrie.
