She has yet to confirm a relationship, although it's been teased that she will address her relationship status on part three of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 reunion on March 13.
"She's really annoying to me right now. I like her. I like her as an individual.
"But that whole thing is just, it's annoying to me," Kelly, 48, told The U.S. Sun exclusively while attending Gurus Magazine's Pre-Oscars Celebrity Gifting Retreat on March 8.
The RHOC alum continued: "It's like she's doing it for the cameras and I find it atrocious really because her kids and her daughters, it's very hurtful to them."
Kyle has only admitted that she would date a woman while conversing with her castmates and recently confessed she was "curious" about kissing a woman.
Kelly remarked: "Just come out and say it! Don't lead everybody on thinking that you are a lesbian."
When asked if Kyle might be hesitant to speak the truth, The Rick & Kelly Show host insisted, "No, I don't think she really cares what people think of her because she's been on TV her whole life.
"She knows the ins and outs and what it entails, and I think that she is just annoying, that's all - her and Dorit [Kemsley].
"It's like for the cameras. Like, it's contrived."
HEADED FOR DIVORCE?
News first broke in July 2023 that Kyle and Mauricio, 53, were separating after 27 years of marriage.
Kyle Richards finally confirms marriage to Mauricio collapsed after she ‘lost trust’ in him and drops hint he ‘cheated’
From what the reality stars said, they are working on their issues and have only talked about separating not divorce.
"I don't see them getting divorced because I think there's too much money at stake," Kelly told The U.S. Sun while taking in the sunshine on the rooftop of The Godfrey Hotel Hollywood.
"Go have your separate lives, but you don't want to divide everything."
Although RHOBH will not have any new episodes, Bravo fans will get to see more of Kyle and Mauricio's relationship on the second season of Buying Beverly Hills, which premieres on Netflix on March 22.
RETURNING TO REALITY
On the top of Mauricio's upcoming show, Kelly's husband, Rick Leventhal said to The U.S. Sun that he and his wife were going to do a TV show about homes, but the deal didn't go through.
"I think Kelly has a reputation for being outrageous sometimes and doesn't hold back and some people are nervous about that," Rick explained.
"But we have a great group of fans now that are following the stuff we're doing and it's really exciting."
Noting, "a [reality] TV show might be in our future," Rick revealed he's "finalizing a contract" for an hour news show in prime time starting in May.
TEASING RHONJ
In a turn of events, the Fox News alum brought up he's friends with Luis "Louie" Ruelas, Teresa Giudice's husband, and that he'll be reunited with him in Los Angeles in the beginning of April.
Louie is launching a creator platform and celebrating with a grand opening party.
Rick insisted that the RHONJ star and her husband are not having financial problems and that "everything is fine" between the couple, despite the season 14 teaser hinting at it.
"I saw the trailer and I actually talked to Louie about it.
"To me, it's just they need drama to get people to watch, so I think they try to drum things up, they try to stir things up."
He continued: "But, basically [Louie] said everything's fine. They're doing great."
"She makes a lot of money, so does he. Good for them," Kelly added.
At the Gurus Magazine event hosted by founder Derek Warburton, Kelly joined the likes of Sutton Stracke, Camille Grammer and Phaedra Parks who stopped in during the two day affair.
Sponsored by Saints and Sinners hair care, guests enjoyed gourmet candies from Cocoa and Candy, checked out stylish workwear from Mrs Momma Bear and stunning gowns by Tadashi Shoji, while tasting El Cristiano Tequila and cocktails from Amber Walker Events.
