Kyle Richards is offering an update on her relationships with her ex-husband, Guraish Aldjufrie, and her estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky. The “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star opened up about her past and present during a recent podcast appearance, while also giving Bravo fans a glimpse into her ongoing friendship with Morgan Wade.
Richards spoke candidly about her family dynamics and current situation during the March 30 episode of “The Bossticks,” reflecting on how her relationships have evolved over time.
Kyle Richards Reflects on Marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie
Richards revisited her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie while discussing their daughter, Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie. The couple married when Richards was young and later divorced, but they have remained on good terms.
“Even though obviously her dad was successful, had a lot of money, and then I married Mauricio, she had amazing dads by the way, to be clear. Two amazing dads,” Richards said on the podcast.
Richards explained that despite Aldjufrie’s financial stability, her early years with Mauricio Umansky were more modest.
“But when Mau and I first got married, we didn’t have any money, that was very much ingrained in her, and we would tell her, one day we’re going to have a house, but we have enough cushions in the bank,” she said.
Richards has previously discussed meeting Aldjufrie at a Tina Turner concert when she was 19 and later realizing she was not ready for marriage.
“I struggled with the married part. Now I’ve got the wife part down, but that’s hard to be a wife at that age,” Richards said in a past interview. “Eventually I couldn’t do it and I left, and I felt guilty for so long. I felt so bad. I was just too young to be married. We’re still friends and he’s still friends with my husband.”
The RHOBH OG Updates Fans on Mauricio Umansky Separation
Richards also addressed her current relationship with Umansky, confirming they remain separated but not legally divorced.
“Every separation is different,” Richards said. “Every divorce is different. Every relationship is different. And, you know, this is just working for us so far.”
She added, “I say so far because obviously we’re not going to stay in this gray area.”
Richards and Umansky share three daughters and were married for 27 years before announcing their separation in October 2023.
The reality star indicated that their current arrangement continues to work as they navigate the next steps.
Kyle Richards Continues ‘Friendship’ With Morgan Wade
The RHOBH star also offered a look at her ongoing friendship with country singer Wade through recent social media interactions.
Wade shared a video on Instagram showing her pretending to pass out to test her dog’s reaction. Richards responded in the comments.
“Chop cannot be bothered,” Richards wrote.
Wade replied, “Never ever.”
In another post, Wade shared a photo wearing a light therapy mask while relaxing with her dog. Richards again commented.
“Chop has already moved on to stem cell replacement therapy,” she wrote.
Richards has also supported Wade’s music. After Wade posted a clip of an unreleased song, Richards reacted in the comments with three raised-hand emojis, which Wade echoed.
New episodes of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” air Thursday nights on Bravo.
