Uncategorized

a Real housewives success story. Kyle Richards And Mauricio Umansky were married for over two decades before shocking fans with their divorce in 2023.

The Halloween star was previously married to Guraish Aljufrie from 1988 to 1992. Before calling it quits, the couple welcomed daughter Farrah in October 1988. ER alum met Umansky in 1994, and the couple exchanged vows two years later. Richards was four months pregnant with daughter Alexia when she and the Mexican native walked down the aisle.

The pair welcomed daughters Sophia and Portia in 2000 and 2008 respectively. Richards made her Bravo debut in 2010 when The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills premiered, and she was joined by sister Kim Richards. Their older sister, Kathy Hilton, appeared later. For more than 10 seasons, Kyle’s marriage was tested, but they remained steadfast.

“[The show] has definitely made them stronger, 100 percent, and they’re just the cutest, honestly,” Farrah told exclusive Us weekly on the ‘Getting Real With the Housewives’ podcast in August 2020. ‘They are such a great role model for couples, married couples, people in relationships because they really are a team. … The show makes me think they appreciate their time together even more because they’re both so busy and he runs a whole company and is one of the best cops in the country, and she has so many obligations.

Kyle’s eldest daughter added: “They try to spend a lot of time together and they really value their time together. I definitely think it made them stronger.”

Two months earlier, fellow Bravo star Jill Zarin told Us she became concerned about Kyle’s relationship after noticing how she was filming housewives straining her own love life. It’s not good for any relationship. … I think [Kyle and Mauricio] are a really great bunch,” the Real Housewives of New York City said alum in June 2020. “But I know that [my late husband] Bobby and I, after a few years, I felt it. I felt shaky. Not very shaky, but I felt a little shaky and I hope she gets out before anything happens to her and Mauricio.

Despite speculation about her romance, Kyle seemed confident that she and Umansky would make it. “I really think it’s important to let your partner grow, change and be themselves,” she shared exclusively Us in November 2019 when asked about the secret of her successful marriage. “It’s hard because people often get married and change and then grow apart. But if you step back and let that person grow, you can grow together.

However, in July 2023, Us confirmed that Kyle and Umansky had given up after 27 years of marriage.
