During the final part of the RHOBH season 13 reunion, Kyle Richards made it clear that she’s not sharing the “real reason” for her split from husband, Mauricio Umansky.
“It’s nobody’s f—king business,” Kyle Richards told Andy Cohen on the Wednesday, March 13, episode of RHOBH. Kyle’s statement closed the door on questions surrounding her separation as Andy noted that fans have felt she has been skirting around the details behind her and Mauricio’s split.
“With any marriage, there’s issues that you have. They come up. You get busy, you’ve got kids,” Kyle explained. “Some of the issues never went away, they were never worked on. Something, like I said in my interview, happened where I did lose my trust.”
She continued: “I care about my family first and I tried. I really did try. So then, when I couldn’t, the kind of things — I don’t want to say putting up with — just became more apparent to me, I guess. I guess I couldn’t do that anymore, and I finally had a breaking point.”
The RHOBH OG admitted that she initially thought the separation would be “a temporary thing.”
She added, “Anybody knows I did not want to be in this position.”
While Kyle and Mauricio are still living together amid their separation, the longtime RHOBH star admitted on Wednesday’s episode that “he would” be the one to move out of their Encino mansion.
“It’s hard for us to say [divorce], I think,” she added. “I mean, if he’s looking for a place to move out, I haven’t really seen progress. We get along well, but like friends.”
Andy also brought up the ongoing infidelity rumors that have plagued the RHOBH couple for well over a decade.
“Did those rumors over the years cause you to chip away at your trust for him?” Andy asked to which Kyle replied, “Yes, and they made me feel insecure.”
She added: “[Mauricio] would say, ‘We can’t care. We know the truth.’ Of course, there’s always that little voice in my head, what if this is true. People would say these things all the time.”
In September 2023, Kyle and Mauricio confirmed their separation after months of speculation. The two admitted that they are “free” to date other people.
The ex-RHOBH couple wed in 1996. They share daughters Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15. Mauricio is also stepfather to Kyle’s daughter Farrah Aldjufrie, 34, from her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie.
