Kyle Richards enthusiastically cheers on estranged husband Mauricio Umansky in his DWTS debut amid their ongoing divorce

Kyle Richards enthusiastically supported her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky in his Dancing With the Stars debut on Tuesday night.

When the camera panned to the audience she show the real estate mogul’s, 53, family, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star was wildly cheering him on. 

The actress, 54, looked stylish in a long-sleeved burgundy blouse and she wore her long brunette hair down and loose around her shoulders.

The socialite was joined by two of the three daughters she shares with her ex, Alexia, 27, and Sophia, 23, as well as Farrah Brittany, 34, her daughter from her first marriage.

In a pre-taped interview, Mauricio, who is paired with dance pro Emma Slater, addressed his marriage, confessing: ‘We’ve had a rough year. I’m hoping Dancing With the Stars will help take my mind off it.’

On Monday, the socialite took part in an Amazon Live segment and talked about how excited she was for his chance at winning the Mirror Ball trophy.

‘I will be there cheering Mauricio on with my girls. I feel like he’s gonna do great,’ Richards told a fan. 

‘He’s very excited,’ the Bravolebrity continued. ‘He’s really, really enjoying that, so I will be there cheering him on for sure.’

She also posted a snap on Instagram on Monday of her husband of 27 years dressed in a grey and black sport coat with a black shirt and pants, posing next to Emma in her sexy silver dance costume.

‘Tonight!! @dancingwiththestars premiers with @mumansky18 & @theemmaslater [sic],’ she wrote in her caption, before informing her fans that they could vote up to 20 times for Mauricio if they wanted.

However, when it came time for the first elimination of the 32nd season of the dance competition, Mauricio and Emma’s jive dance was tied for last place with a score of 15/30.

Ultimately, it was Matt Walsh and Koko Iwasaki who were eliminated, sparing Mauricio for at least another week. 

By all accounts Kyle and Mauricio are having a pretty amicable divorce.
