Kyle Richard blasts ‘inhumane’ ‘RHOBH’ co-stars for questioning Mauricio Umansky relationship woes
Kyle Richards slammed her “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars for consistently interrogating her over ongoing marital issues with estranged husband Mauricio Umansky.
“The way they came at me, it was not from a loving place or a friend that said, ‘Do you need someone? Are you OK? Is everything OK? Do you need anything?’” Richards said on Wednesday’s episode of Kelly Ripa’s podcast, “Let’s Talk Off Camera.”
She added, “It was unbelievable –– honestly it felt inhumane.”
The longtime “RHOBH” star explained that she first told the women about her and Umansky’s at the very beginning of the season, so she found their questioning afterwards to be “relentless.”
“You saw, I said, ‘I’m gonna tell the girls we were having issues,’ [and] they were relentless. They wanted to know every problem,” she continued.
Richards, 55, admitted that she “would have” confided in them if they had “come to me in an off-camera kind way,” but apparently they did not.
“They also knew the other things that had gone on in my life –– not just my marriage –– the other stuff I was dealing with, and I was like, ‘Can you not give me some grace?” she shared.
Richards didn’t elaborate on the other aspects of her life, but she mentioned elsewhere on the podcast that the women also knew that she was “still dealing with the loss” of her longtime best friend, Lorene Shea.
“I was like, ‘Guys, cut me a break,’” she recalled.
The mom of four explained that she “did not do one thing to hurt anybody” on the cast, but she was still being “treated like that.”
“Why was nobody there for me to lean on? Obviously some more than others,” she said while clarifying she didn’t mean all of her co-stars, and “Obviously we know who was driving the bus on that situation.”
Richards didn’t specify which of her castmates she was talking about, but she previously clashed with Sutton Stracke and Garcelle Beauvais when the two of them asked about her marriage on an explosive episode of “RHOBH.”
Stracke accused Richards of “not being honest,” while Beauvais wondered why Richards was not wearing her wedding ring and even asked if she replaced it with a “makeup” one.
“When your husband messes up and you get a gift. They buy you something to forget what they did,” Beauvais said on the episode aired in November 2023.
Richards got upset by Beauvais’ accusation and screamed, “So what you’re saying is that my husband is cheating on me?”
Shortly after the most recent season of “RHOBH” wrapped filming, Page Six confirmed that Richards and Umansky, 53, had separated after 27 years of marriage.
Both Richards and Umansky have kept quiet on what exactly led to their split, but Richards previously explained that there were issues between the two of them they never dealt with or accepted until recently.
Richards also shared that “there were things that happened” that made her lose her trust in Umansky, but she has not specified what those things were.
