Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards is lifting the lid on what her separation from Mauricio Umansky has really been like in an extensive new interview.
The longtime reality star, 55, announced her separation in July 2023, and has not yet filed any official divorce papers.
This summer, Umansky was spotted sharing a passionate kiss at an airport in Greece with 33-year-old actress Nikita Kahn.
Now, however, Richards admits that she’s ‘not sure’ what the future holds for the two of them, who were married for 27 years before announcing their split.
‘I don’t know what the future holds right now with Mauricio and me,’ Richards shared in a new interview with Us Weekly.

‘We love each other. So that part is easy. What’s not easy is figuring out what’s next. We’re not divorced; he doesn’t live here, but we’re still figuring things out,’ she continued.
‘On the show, people felt they were owed answers and thought I was withholding stuff — but I’m figuring it out myself.’
During last season of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the star revealed that the two were having trouble in their marriage, but refused to share exactly what led to the breakup.
And, when she was asked about it on last season’s reunion special, Richards vaguely said that her husband did something that made her ‘lose trust,’ but ultimately said that it was ‘nobody’s f***ing business.’
However, interestingly enough, she told Us Weekly that she doesn’t consider herself single, and revealed that her estranged husband will be involved in the upcoming season, which is set to premiere on Bravo this Fall.
‘Mau shot with me quite a bit,’ Richards told the outlet.
‘He’ll come over for dinner and it’s like nothing has changed, yet everything has changed,’ she shared.
‘The best way I can put it is that we’re family. It’s easy for us to get along because we never fought. That was not an issue in our marriage; there’s so much love there.’

She also admitted that at the beginning of last season, he wasn’t ‘prepared to share anything,’ which she can admit ‘came off strange.’
But once she started talking about what was really going on, it became easier for her in front of the cameras, Richards explained.
In May, Richards confirmed publicly that Mauricio had moved out of their home in Encino, California and into a West Hollywood bachelor pad.
She confessed that this change was very challenging at times, especially when it came to filming.
‘Shooting scenes after he moved out was very difficult,’ Richards said to Us Weekly.
‘We were catching up in front of the cameras, so emotions were raw. He would check on me, and I was just a mess sometimes,’ she added.

The former boutique owner’s interview comes at the same time her best friend and former Real Housewives star Teddi Mellencamp told People that Richards is doing ‘amazing,’ and that no one knows what the future holds for their relationship.
‘I think that shows the love that’s there throughout their family and their life and the kind of people that they are because that’s not common,’ Mellencamp divulged.
‘And, you know, no one knows what the future holds.’
