Despite Kyle Richards<\/strong> <\/a>and husband Mauricio Umansky<\/strong><\/a> admitting they had the \u201cmost challenging\u201d year<\/a> of their nearly three-decade marriage, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills<\/em><\/a> star says she\u2019ll be there in the ballroom when he competes on season 32 of Dancing With the Stars<\/em><\/a> starting on Tuesday, September 26.<\/p>\n \u201cYes, I will be there cheering Mauricio on with my girls,\u201d Kyle, 54, confirmed during a Monday, September 24 Amazon Live session. She added, \u201cI feel like he\u2019s gonna do great. He\u2019s very excited. He\u2019s really, really enjoying that, so I will be there cheering him on for sure.\u201d The couple share three daughters \u2014 Alexia<\/strong>, 27, Sophia<\/strong>, 23, and Portia, 15, \u2014 who will be supporting their dad as he competes for the Mirrorball trophy. Mauricio also helped raise Kyle\u2019s daughter Farrah Aldjufrie<\/strong>, 35, from her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie<\/strong>.<\/p>\n Kyle and Mauricio had to shoot down reports on July 3 the pair had separated<\/a> after 27 years of marriage. Later that day, the duo released a statement that read, \u201cIn regards to the news that came out about us today\u2026 Any claims regarding us divorcing are untrue<\/a>.\u201d<\/p>\n They continued, \u201cHowever, yes, we have had a rough year. The most challenging one of our marriage. But we both love and respect each other tremendously. There has been no wrongdoing on anyone\u2019s part.\u201d<\/p>\n The split reports came after Mauricio had been largely absent from Kyle\u2019s Instagram page for months. She neglected to share a gushing post on their January 2023 wedding anniversary like she did in years past and in a Father\u2019s Day post in June, she simply wrote how she was \u201cgrateful that our girls have such an incredible Dad,\u201d without her usual references to their love for each other.<\/p>\n Since February 2022, Kyle has become very close friends<\/a> with country singer\u00a0Morgan Wade<\/strong><\/a>, who made numerous appearances on the\u00a0RHOBH<\/em>\u00a0star\u2019s social media. Fans began to speculate that the women were more than pals<\/a> with how close they\u2019d grown while Kyle\u2019s marriage to Mauricio suffered, as they went on numerous trips together, became workout pals and attended red carpets as each other\u2019s dates.<\/p>\n The Hollywood native has repeatedly said she and Morgan are simply best friends and not romantically involved. She\u2019s currently executive producing a documentary<\/a> about the \u201cWilder Days\u201d songstress and discussed how that was going during her Amazon Live, describing it as a \u201cfun girls trip.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cWe were in Paris shooting the documentary that you guys probably heard about online,\u201d Kyle said after she shared photos of Morgan during their experience in France. \u201cThere\u2019s just so many things out there online. I\u2019m like, \u2018Why do people just make things up, invent things about the trip?\u2019 They see that there\u2019s a camera there, and they completely ignore that there\u2019s a camera there and act like we were \u2026 I don\u2019t even know what. I\u2019m like, \u2018There were cameras there! Just get your act together.\u2019 But yes, it was a great shoot.\u201d<\/p>\n Kyle revealed in an August 30\u00a0Amazon Live<\/a> session that her situation with Mauricio \u201chas been very hard<\/a>\u201d because \u201cit\u2019s playing out with so many people having eyes on us and [with us] being in the public eye.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cObviously we care about each other a lot,\u201d she continued but said she wouldn\u2019t be sharing any more details about her relationship status with Mauricio\u00a0because it was \u201cjust too much to deal with right now.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
