Kyle Richards recently revealed that she and Mauricio Umansky have decided to take a break from couples therapy amidst their ongoing marital issues. The couple, who star in the 'Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,' shared that they haven't been in therapy for a while but emphasized that they get along well and are good friends.
While the exact timing of their decision to halt therapy remains unclear, sources previously indicated that they were attending counseling separately to create some 'space' between them. Despite rumors of divorce, insiders have maintained that Richards, 55, and Umansky, 53, are not heading towards a split.
In July, it was confirmed that the real estate broker and the actress had separated after 27 years of marriage. The couple acknowledged that they had faced significant challenges in their relationship over the past year.
Richards has chosen not to disclose the specific reasons behind their separation, citing that it is a private matter. However, she did mention during a reunion episode of 'RHOBH' that a loss of trust played a significant role in their decision to part ways.
Despite their separation, Richards and Umansky have continued to co-parent their daughters and maintain a united front during family vacations and holidays. The couple shares three daughters, Alexia, Sophia, and Portia, while Richards also has a daughter, Farrah, from a previous marriage.
As their marital issues remain unresolved, there have been reports of Umansky considering moving out of their shared home. The separation agreement allows both parties to date other people as they navigate this new chapter in their lives.
Rumors have circulated about Richards possibly dating her close friend, country star Morgan Wade, although she has clarified that they are just friends. Umansky, on the other hand, has been seen with mystery women and was recently linked to his 'Dancing With the Stars' co-star Emma Slater, although they denied any romantic involvement.
