In a preview for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14, Episode 10, airing on Tuesday, February 4, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky have a deeply emotional moment during a candid conversation, marking a pivotal moment in their ongoing separation.
What begins as a casual check-in about Mauricio Umansky’s new living situation quickly evolves into a heartfelt exchange, with Kyle Richards revealing the emotional toll of the current changes in her life.
“How’s the condo coming along?” Kyle asks, starting the conversation with light-hearted curiosity.
“It’s coming together… as much as it’s going to,” Mauricio replies with a chuckle. “I’ve got eggs in the fridge. Mostly, I live off canned soups—tomato, whatever I can find.”
“Canned soups?” Kyle says with a laugh, surprised by the simplicity of it.
“Yeah, that’s my life now,” he continues. “What’s it like for you at home with the girls?”
But as soon as the subject shifts from soups to life without Mauricio, Kyle’s emotions shift as well.
“It’s quiet sometimes,” she admits, her voice cracking. “I’m still in our home… but it’s just not the same. It feels like everyone was there, and now it’s just different.”
As tears start to well up in her eyes, Mauricio, sensing her vulnerability, steps in with a comforting hug, holding her close and gently kissing the top of her head.
“Sorry,” Kyle says quietly as they break apart, wiping her eyes.
“It’s OK,” Mauricio reassures her, offering a supportive smile.
During a Watch What Happens Live appearance in December 2024, Kyle opened up about why the couple hasn’t filed for divorce yet. “We’re still really good friends, and we get along well. It’s just that we’ve kind of gone our separate ways, and it hasn’t felt like the right time to address it legally,” she explained. “We’re still figuring things out, and when the moment comes, we’ll deal with it.”
She added that the topic remains difficult for both of them to broach. “Neither of us is excited to talk about it. We’ve just been really good friends through this whole thing, and that’s how it is right now,” Kyle shared.
