Fans Continue Discussing Kyle Richards & Mauricio Umansky’s Separation
Some fans also used the conversation to revisit ongoing speculation surrounding Richards’ separation from Mauricio Umansky, including theories about why the couple has still not filed for divorce nearly two years after announcing their split.
The former couple publicly confirmed their separation in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage, but both have repeatedly said they remain close and continue focusing on their family.
Online speculation surrounding the status of their relationship has remained intense ever since, especially as both Richards and Umansky have discussed the separation publicly on multiple occasions.
Kyle Richards Previously Opened Up About the Emotional Toll
In recent months, Richards has become increasingly candid about how emotionally difficult the separation has been.
During a podcast episode, Richards admitted that the situation has been hard to navigate publicly.
“There has been more talk about that as of recently … the longer things go on like this, it seems harder, you know, to think about how do you come back from this.”
She continued, “I think both of us, if we just hard to accept or acknowledge because this is such a big part of our identities, you know, being married so long. But we’ve kept it so normal with our family.”
Richards also noted that neither she nor Umansky had officially filed for divorce.
“We haven’t done any paperwork,” she explained, noting that they are still trying to figure it out.
While questions about both her personal life and the future of RHOBH continue to swirl online, Richards’ latest response appears to make one thing clear: the show is apparently not on pause.
