Kyle Richards has finally confirmed that her and her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky are no longer living together — 10 months after announcing their separation.
Weeks earlier, Us Weekly reported that Umansky, 53, had moved out of their marital home in Los Angeles and into a luxury condo in West Hollywood.
On Tuesday, Richards, 55, revealed on the B***h Bible podcast that he decided to pack his belongings and go while she was ‘out of town’ one weekend.
‘The day that he moved out was just strange because I came home and I’m like, ‘Everything’s so quiet.’ I was like, ‘Where is everybody?” the RHOBH star recalled.
But Richards — who is back to shooting her hit Bravo show — thinks it was the ‘smart thing’ for Umansky to do. ‘I didn’t want to be there to see that,’ she admitted.

She said that it was ‘weird’ learning that Umansky had bought his own place because it made their split ‘very real.’
‘I always knew when that day came it would feel strange, very real all of a sudden. And that’s exactly what happened. I’m a mom of four, I have a busy household,’ she explained.
Richards and Umansky were married for 27 years and welcomed three daughters — Alexia, 27, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16 — before announcing their separation last July.
She also shares daughter Farrah, 35, with her first husband Guraish Aldjufrie.
With a full house that includes six dogs, Richards grew accustomed to ‘having a lot of chaos’ under her roof.
So with Umansky finally out of the house and Alexia living on her own again, Richards said it’s been ‘strange’ for her.
‘Just like, “Wow, it’s gonna be like this sometimes,”‘ she said.

In the same interview, Richards provided some rare insight on the end of her marriage to Umansky and how she doesn’t see it as a failure.
She also revealed that they’ve been separated since January 2023 but waited until July to share it publicly.
‘I was very proud of my marriage and my family that we built,’ she told host Jackie Schimmel.
‘It was hard for me to finally get to a place where I could say, ‘This was a success, no matter what.”
Richards insisted that she’s on good terms with Umansky and that they ‘get along’ despite the split.
In February, she admitted that Umansky was still living with her in their San Fernando Valley family home, but confirmed that they do sleep in ‘different rooms’.
When asked if she thinks there’s a chance that she and Mauricio will get back together, Kyle replied: ‘I really don’t know what my future holds right now, to be honest, which is the weirdest part of all of this.’
Us Weekly reported earlier this month that Umansky had successfully purchased a luxury condo in a new development in WeHo – with a source claiming Matt Damon has an $8.6million unit in the same building.

A second source said: ‘Kyle and Mauricio have been living separately for the last few months and he’s been staying there.
‘They’ve both been traveling a lot recently, so it’s working out where they don’t stay under one roof.
They added Umansky ‘will visit their primary residence often’ when Richards is out of town.
Earlier this week, Richards was seen filming season 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills – after a source told DailyMail.com that she was being squeezed by Bravo to come clean about her rumored romance with country singer Morgan Wade, 29, if she wants to continue on the show.
Richards is the last remaining original member of the cast.
‘The producers feel that Kyle has said all she can say about her split from Mauricio and now it is time to tell the truth about her dating Morgan,’ the insider claimed.
‘Kyle has beat around the bush a ton on Morgan and it is getting old. It is time for her to finally admit that it is more than a friendship.’
