Kathy Hilton "Surprised" Andy Cohen with a Stunning Declaration About Kyle & Mauricio: "Really?" - lulu

   

The three-part reunion for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14 concluded on April 15, but not before giving host Andy Cohen at least one more shock for the road. Specifically, he was "so surprised" about what Kathy Hilton had to say on the much-discussed topic of Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky.

The estranged couple's separation and subsequent headlines were talked about in-depth throughout RHOBH Season 14 and the reunion, but perhaps the most jaw-dropping reveal of all came from Kathy.

During a tearful exchange between Andy and Kyle, the actress admitted that she felt "a loss" of the "great life" she had when her husband of 30 years and their daughters were all under one roof.

As Kyle dried her eyes, Andy turned to Kathy for her input, asking, "Kathy, do you want to see them reconcile?"

Kyle's sister immediately said, "Yes," leaving Andy visibly shocked. 

"You would? Really?" he asked as Kathy nodded to confirm.

After taking a moment to process her response, Andy said, "I'm so surprised to hear you say that."

Dabbing her eyes with a tissue, Kathy explained, "I don't like things to change." She added, "I just, for the kids... For me, I want everything staying the same."

In The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show video above, Kyle shared new details about Kathy's response to her and Mauricio's separation. 

“Kathy has been very supportive of me, but she’s also been oddly emotional about it,” Kyle shared. “She’s broken down crying to me about my separation. Many times, she struggles to talk about it, and I think, 'This is so interesting.'”

“She wants to see me happy and move on, of course," she continued. "But she’s also a little bit heartbroken that it came to this.”

In the same clip, Kathy noted Kyle and Mauricio “were a great couple" and they all "used to have so much fun” as a family. 

Still, Kathy remains in touch with Mauricio, and has “called to check on” him amid his separation from Kyle. 

Where do Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky stand today?

Kyle and Mauricio are legally separated, but not divorced, which the actress confirmed during the RHOBH Season 14 Reunion Part 3.

In an appearance on Watch What Happens Live in December 2024, Kyle said that she and Mau are "good friends" and still "get along really well," but do live "separate lives." During the reunion, she added that they "talk every day."

The unique relationship between the two played out on camera during RHOBH Season 14, which included Kyle opening up to Mauricio about living separately and processing him "living his best life" while she feels like she's still adjusting to hers.
