A report from People.com claims that The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards had separated from her husband, Mauricio Umansky. The duo has appeared on the popular Bravo series for several years. They have also become one of the franchise’s most iconic couples ever featured. So, news of their divorce surprised most of the show’s viewers, who have grown fond of the famous pair.
The couple may have come through a lot together, but their marriage has recently been the subject of divorce rumors. In the PEOPLE magazine report, an insider close to the couple confirmed they had gone their separate ways. The source said:
“Kyle and Mauricio have been separated for a while now but still live under the same roof. They remain amicable as they figure out what’s next for them and their family.”
The recent divorce news comes just a few months after Mauricio had to play down rumors of a rift in his marriage. The rumors started after Kyle appeared without her wedding ring. In his rebuttal, Mauricio insisted that the two were not getting divorced. He then noted they would address the divorce rumors in the upcoming season of RHOBH.

Just like her husband did back in April, Kyle quickly moved to debunk the recent divorce news barely a few hours after the media outlet reported it. Taking to her Instagram story, the reality TV star shared a personal message to her fans in which she completely denied the reports that she had separated from her husband.
The rebuttal appeared to be a joint message from the couple, and they labeled the media reports as “untrue.” While they admitted that the past year had been one of the most challenging in their marriage, they emphasized that they were still very much in love and working through their issues privately.
The couple concluded the message by thanking fans for their love and support. However, they pleaded with all concerned to desist from “creating false stories” to “fit a further salacious narrative.”
Kyle and Mauricio Have Been Married for 27 Years
Despite the statement, many fans are still worried about the status of the duo’s marriage. While the joint message from the couple vehemently denies the divorce rumors, their allusion to having one of the most challenging years in their marriage has pushed many to believe that all may not be well with the celebrity couple.
The couple have been married for 27 years and have managed to build a successful brand together. Kyle and Mauricio began dating in 1994 after meeting at a nightclub. At the time, Real Housewives star Kyle had already divorced her first husband, Guraish Aldjufrie. The ex-couples share a daughter Farrah Brittany, 34.
Real Housewives stars Kyle and Mauricio got engaged that same year and tied the knot in January 1996. The two share three daughters — Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15. In 2010, Kyle’s family got introduced to the public when she was announced as an original cast member of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. She has continued to be a mainstay on the show, and viewers have become fond of her and her family.
