Kyle Richards admits she was 'in a romantic relationship' but 'gossip' ended it

Kyle Richards has confessed that she "was seeing someone who I cared about very much" after calling it quits with Mauricio Umansky.

During the latest episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the 56-year-old actress admitted to her castmate Erika Jayne that she was in a relationship, but "gossip" ended it.

"I was in a relationship. I was at a very vulnerable place in my life. And I fell hard for this person," said Kyle.

She further said, "You know, if I'm in love with somebody, I want to share that. I don't care. I'm an open person like that. But that doesn't mean that the person I'm with feels the same way."

“Listen, I’ve always told everybody to be honest, and I’m an honest person. I’m not a liar,” continued the reality star. 

“But I don’t know what people want from me. I am single now, okay? I was seeing someone who I cared about very much," added Kyle.

For those unversed, Kyle parted ways with Mauricio in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage. The couple share three daughters - Alexia, 29, Sophia, 25, and Portia, 21.

Kyle is also a mother of daughter Farrah, 37, whom she welcomed with her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie.
