The marriage of Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky is teetering on the brink. It’s like they’re hanging on by a thread, really. The couple, who’ve been together for over three decades, seem to be on completely different wavelengths. This is especially evident when they talk about their couple’s therapy sessions.
E! News gave us a sneak peek at the Feb. 14 episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. Funny enough, it’s Valentine’s Day. In the preview, Kyle says, “We’ve been so good about talking in these sessions.” Mauricio’s response? “Well, it becomes fun.”
Fun? That’s the word Mauricio chooses to describe therapy. Kyle, star of Halloween Ends, is left scratching her head. “I—I wouldn’t say ‘fun.’ It’s feels good. But, I mean, I wasn’t exactly cracking up during those sessions. I’m not sure ‘fun’ is the right word here.”
Mauricio, the real estate tycoon, is just as baffling to Kyle. He nonchalantly agrees, “Sure, love that adjective.” But Mauricio insists that therapy is doing wonders for their rocky marriage. At the same time, he admits that he and Kyle are drifting apart.
He tells his 55-year-old wife, “We’ve gone through a tough few months, tough year, whatever you want to call it.” He continues, “We’ve been married for 27 years, we’ve never had so much going on in our lives. It’s become hard, right? It’s become really hard.”
