Kyle Richards revealed that her husband, Mauricio Umansky, moved out of their Los Angeles home nine months after their split and into a West Hollywood bachelor pad. Richards admitted on the “Bitch Bible” podcast that it felt weird when Umansky bought his own place after 28 years of marriage. She is a mother of four and is used to having a chaotic household with her daughters and six dogs. The day Umansky moved out was quiet and strange for Richards, who was out of town at the time, and she acknowledged that it was the smart thing to do.
Umansky chose to move into a luxury condo, possibly in the same building as Matt Damon, around the same time their daughter, Alexia, also moved out to her own place after living with them for a few years. The change in dynamics at home was odd for Richards, who described it as a significant adjustment. Despite the split, Richards emphasized that she views their marriage as an accomplishment rather than a failure, and it took her some time to reach that realization. She expressed pride in the family they built together and their successful marriage.
Even though Richards and Umansky no longer reside together, she stated that they still get along well. The couple confirmed their split in July 2023, but Richards disclosed that they were separated as early as January of that year. She recently dropped Umansky from her last name on social media but still retains “wife” in her bio, indicating her ongoing attachment to the title. Richards seems to have fully embraced her surname, as evidenced by the monogram necklace she received for Mother’s Day with the initials KER (Kyle Egan Richards).
Richards reflected on the momentous change in her life and acknowledged the quietness and stillness in her home after Umansky’s departure. She painted a picture of going home to an empty and silent house, missing the noise and chaos that her daughters and pets would bring. The transition to living separately from her husband and having her daughter move out added to the sense of strangeness and newness in her life. Despite the challenges and adjustments, Richards expressed gratitude for the success of their marriage and the family they built together.
Throughout the changes and emotions surrounding the split, Richards maintained a positive outlook on the situation and remained grateful for the experiences and memories they shared as a family. She admitted that reaching a point where she could see their marriage as an accomplishment was a journey and required a shift in perspective. Richards’ openness about the difficulties of adjusting to a new way of life while maintaining a strong connection with her ex-husband and children provided insight into the complexities of managing personal relationships in the public eye. Ultimately, Richards’ story is one of resilience, growth, and embracing change amidst the inevitable challenges of life.
