Kyle Richards addresses Mauricio Umansky's active dating life
Kyle wasn't exactly in the dark, though. When the Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen host brought up the much-discussed photos of Mauricio kissing a mystery woman in a Greek airport, she said that she "didn't know he was seeing anybody" at the time, but had "assumed" that was the case.
The reason? "Before he moved out and got his own place, I used to see all his messages," Kyle revealed of her ex, joking that her "day job" is detective. "And I do know... every f–king crumb."
However, the RHOBH OG insisted that she's since "stopped looking" and clarified that she and Mauricio were already separated when she saw the private, presumably romantic messages in question.
How Kyle Richards reacted to Mauricio Umansky's public romances
Seeing photos of Mauricio in public with other women across the globe didn't make Kyle "feel angry" or "jealous at all," though. "It was very jarring at first because, to me, in my mind, like, that's my husband all these years. How weird to see him with another woman at all," she admitted. "I just feel like I'm looking at somebody else, honestly."
When Jennifer Tilly asked if Mauricio said anything to her about the photos, Kyle shared that he apologized — and had to answer to their daughters as well.
"[He] felt horrible and, you know, he got a tongue-lashing from the four other Kyles," she said, before expressing her desire to also date. "I mean, I'm not going to be like him, out there skiing on the slopes with people and whatever, but, like, I want to move on in that aspect, too. And I will be very soon."
Why Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky broke up
Still, Kyle added that they actually both "have regrets" for "allowing" their 30-year marriage to crumble, before opening up about what went wrong between her and Mauricio.
She cited "money, traveling, fame, his business, The Agency, growing, [and] the attention he was getting with all that" as factors that contributed to their split.
"Women are snakes," Kyle said. "They see a man who was a good husband and a good father, and he has money, and... they're like, 'Oh, I want that,' and [throw] themselves at him. And we got married very young, and he never got to go out and do his thing. And I think that, you know, really contributed to the downfall of our marriage."
Photos and videos of her estranged husband out partying (including with Paul "PK" Kemsley and Summer House's Kyle Cooke in Miami) also serve as "little reminders" of what led to their separation. "It makes me think that's one of the reasons we're not together, actually," Kyle elaborated. "I don't like to go out and party like that... When we were in our twenties it was great — thirties, too — but now, I'm like, I don’t want to do that. Let our daughters go."
Has Kyle Richards or Mauricio Umansky filed for divorce?
Regardless, Kyle and Mauricio are still on good terms today. When Andy asked the status of their separation and if either of them had filed for divorce at the Season 14 reunion, Kyle replied, "No, we're literally just the same," adding, "We're close. We talk all the time."
