Kyle Richards admits she’s STILL living with ex Mauricio Umansky SEVEN months after they split – as she opens up about their tumultuous break-up and uncertain future… but stays tight-lipped on rumored lover Morgan Wade

Kyle Richards has admitted that her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky is still living with her in their San Fernando Valley family home, seven months after it was revealed that they had separated – but confirmed that they do sleep in ‘different rooms’.

The 55-year-old Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star claimed that she and Mauricio, 53, still ‘love each other very much’ and have no idea what the ‘future holds right now’ for their marriage amid rumors that she is in a romantic relationship with 29-year-old singer Morgan Wade.

Appearing on Wednesday’s episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna, the reality TV alum did not hold back when talking about her personal life and her husband of 28 years and joked that it felt like she was ‘in a therapist office’.

‘The current status is we live under the same roof. It feels so funny to talk about this,’ Kyle said, before adding: ‘We live under the same roof in different rooms. We are fortunate enough that we have other homes. He comes and goes, and when we are all there, it’s sort of like… if he is there for dinner, great!’

Speaking about how their separation came about last year, Kyle told hosts Hoda Kotb and Jenna Bush Hager: ‘I think there were certain things that were there and then we had kind of been putting it on the back burner for a long time.’

Referring to their family life, she continued: ‘You’re pregnant and you are breastfeeding and then it was working and juggling the kids and you kind of forget about it, you know, and it resurfaces again. And I think it just kind of came to a breaking point.

‘I had gone through a lot. I lost my best friend. I think that does change you and makes you look at things differently,’ she said, referring to her friend Lorene Shea – who died by suicide in May 2022.

‘I think that had a big part in it, definitely. But just… you know… what you are willing to accept and not accept. It’s hard because it’s not like there was one big thing, we love each other very much and have a lot of respect for each other and that makes it harder to make a decision like that.’

Kyle and Mauricio’s separation features in season 13 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, but she admitted that when the cameras first started rolling last year, even their children didn’t know about the split.

‘It was really hard to shoot this season because when the cameras went up, we had not even shared this with our daughters. I have a job to share my life and to be honest, and I always have been, and he wasn’t really ready to share that.

‘That was very challenging for me to kind of balance that. Then I thought, “This is pretty apparent so I am going to have to put this out there that things are not great right now.”‘

When asked if she thinks there’s a chance that she and Mauricio will get back together, Kylie replied: ‘I really don’t know what my future holds right now, to be honest, which is the weirdest part of all of this.

‘I have always had so much stability my entire life, and I don’t really know where my future is… you know, next week,’ she added, before admitting that she find’s fan’s comments ‘very difficult’.

‘Even people who mean well, they are like, “what are you doing?” But you don’t live in our home, you don’t know what’s going on. You think I wanted to be in this position after being married all this time? I mean, my dream was to be married forever and grow old with this person. I didn’t want to be in this position, trust me. So it is hard being out in the public eye.

‘People say, “you were my inspiration”, and I get that I’m ruining their fantasy. I even had close friends who were upset about it at first, so I understand that. But there’s also so many sweet messages and people saying, “I admire your strength and you are inspiring to me”.’

Despite still living with Mauricio, Kyle has been linked to singer Morgan for several months now and those dating rumors hit an all-time high last year in August after she joined Morgan in her music video for her single Fall In Love With Me, which featured the two women pining for each other and climaxed with a passionate kiss between them.

Earlier this month, Morgan opened up about how she and Kyle were getting along after it was rumored they were having problems after the singer deleted photos of the TV star from her Instagram page.

‘I am not fighting with @kylerichards18,’ Morgan said in a caption alongside a snap in which she posed alongside Kyle at her recent concert at the Country Music Hall of Fame.

In the picture, the duo had their arms around each other, flashing megawatt smiles, showing no indication of tension brewing between them – and Kyle decided to share it on her Instagram Stories.

Last month, Kyle told Page Six that the reason Morgan had removed the majority of her posts was part of preparations to promote music she’s set to release.

‘It’s very common for artists to do that,’ Kyle said. ‘That didn’t mean anything.’

In December last year, Kyle told DailyMail.com exclusively that she can sympathize with confusion over the current status of her relationship with Mauricio, as she revealed they have a ‘peaceful’ existence at home with their daughters, and even enjoy occasional movie nights.

‘We are good friends and we love each other, so we are very fortunate in that aspect,’ she said. ‘I think that’s why people are confused and sometimes question if it is even true that we’re separated.

‘I even have a hard time believing that we are as well, so I can understand. But we’re lucky in a sense, we don’t argue, and we can have a peaceful environment in our home and all give each other that space.’
