Kyle Richards shed new light on the buzzed-about paparazzi photos of Mauricio Umansky and another woman in an airport.
Last year, Kyle Richards admitted that seeing paparazzi photos of Mauricio Umansky kissing another woman in an airport was "a little jarring," but the above preview of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 14, Episode 14 gives new insight into Kyle's real-time reaction.
In the sneak peek of the episode (set to air March 4), Kyle and Kathy Hilton discuss the headline-making paparazzi photos while driving around Los Angeles. When Kathy asks how Kyle is doing, she admits, "I think I'm a little bit shocked and still processing."
"Because, honestly, I was in the car driving with Jen. She felt bad to tell me, but she had to tell me. And I just honestly, it was like ... I don't even know," she continues. "She said she lost the feeling in her legs when she saw that."
During an interview, Kyle shares more. "I saw it like everyone else saw it, on TMZ," she says. "It's very strange to see. I was expecting just to maybe see him in person out and about at a restaurant. But this? No."
Back in the car, there's more to discuss. "I don't want him to feel guilty because he's allowed to do what he wants," Kyle tells Kathy. "But it's also like, why are you being irresponsible? I don't know. I have a lot of mixed feelings. I'm just processing it all."
On the Feb. 25 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show, Kyle further reflected on the paparazzi photos of Mauricio. "No, I wasn't crying about it like some of the rumors had said I was. [But] it's weird to see, of course it is," she admitted."
"I mean, I'm not the first person to get divorced — people get divorced — but last week was my 29th wedding anniversary," Kyle continued. "We're not together, but this is a lot of years that we spent together, so obviously seeing these photos is strange for me. I feel like I'm looking at someone else; someone that I don't know."
Who was Mauricio Umansky kissing at the airport?
When asked who the mystery woman was on RHOBH Season 14, Episode 13, Kyle said she had "no idea," adding, "but it’s all over the internet."
Headlines shown during the episode, however, stated that the woman is a Russian-born actress who is 20 years Kyle's junior.
Did Mauricio Umansky pay paparazzi to take his photo at the airport?
While Kyle insisted that Mauricio didn't know the photo was being taken, Erika Jayne warned her, “You can’t be naive."
Sutton Stracke agreed with Erika. "It wasn't an accidental paparazzi shot. It was a planned photo," she said, noting that she has previously been to the same airport when someone like Jennifer Aniston was there and she still didn't see any photographers.
