Kyle Richards had to be calmed down by her sister Kathy Hilton after her estranged husband Mauricio Umansky was seen kissing another woman.
Mauricio, 54, was spotted at the airport in Mykonos, Greece last week passionately locking lips with the 33-year-old Ukraine-born actress Nikita Kahn.
He and Kyle separated a year ago, and Kyle, 55, has since denied rumors that she is conducting a lesbian romance with country singer Morgan Wade.
Now Kathy, 65 – who is the mother of Paris Hilton – has candidly revealed how her sister reacted to Mauricio’s public display of affection.
‘I think it was a hard pill to swallow seeing it. So what I’m trying to do is just kind of calm her down a little bit,’ Kathy explained to Page Six.

Kyle told Mauricio he can do ‘what he wants to do’ and therefore ‘knew’ that she was ‘eventually going to see something,’ Kathy claimed.
However Kyle allegedly still felt wounded when she saw the airport pictures, in which Nikita ‘ran up and kissed him’ in public.
Nikita, who was born in Ukraine but lives in America, has acted alongside Alec Baldwin in the upcoming serial killer drama Crescent City.
In recent years, Kathy and Kyle carried on a fiery feud on The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills, but they have since repaired their relationship.
Kathy has publicly stated that she believes Kyle contemplated divorce for years before finally deciding to separate from Mauricio.
‘Kyle didn’t decide this in three months.… I bet she had been thinking [about this] for the last three or four years. I shouldn’t say that…but I did,’ said Kathy on an episode of The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills that aired this March.
In the wake of the separation, Mauricio ignited dating rumors with his Dancing With The Stars pro partner Emma Slater, 35 – but the sighting with Nikita marks the first time he has been seen romantically with a new woman.
The Buying Beverly Hills star smiled at his mystery companion as she enthusiastically greeted him during his European break.

Kyle and Mauricio separated in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage but continued to live together until last month when they confirmed that he had moved out.
The pair share three daughters Alexia, 27, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16, with Kyle also mom to daughter Farrah, 35, whose father is her first husband Guraish Aldjufrie.
Kyle recently addressed rumors of a potential romance confirmation with country music star Wade.
She debunked a blind item that claimed she and Morgan were planning to go public with their relationship on a magazine cover.
During an Amazon Live session, Kyle said, ‘That is not true. That blind item is not about me,’ adding, ‘Gotta be about somebody else! So, I wonder who it is. Now you have me curious.’
The blind item hinted at a younger country singer planning to unveil a romance with an older woman on a prestigious magazine cover, a speculation many tied to the reality star.
The original rumor was emailed to DeuxMoi and read: ‘Country music singer is set to premiere their relationship in a very public way. The loved-up pair shot a highly coveted magazine cover which will drop shortly and be a shock to many.’

The email that sent it in read ‘[email protected],’ causing many fans to link it back to Kyle and Morgan.
The pair’s friendship has made headlines since Kyle announced her separation from husband Mauricio following 27 years of marriage.
The Kyle and Morgan romance rumors hit an all-time high in August after Kyle joined Morgan in her music video for her single Fall In Love With Me, which featured the two women pining for each other and climaxed with a passionate kiss between them.
Last month, Kyle told Page Six that the reason Morgan had removed the majority of her posts was part of preparations to promote music she’s set to release.
‘It’s very common for artists to do that,’ Kyle said. ‘That didn’t mean anything.’

In December last year, Kyle told DailyMail.com exclusively that she can sympathize with confusion over the current status of her relationship with Mauricio, as she revealed they have a ‘peaceful’ existence at home with their daughters, and even enjoy occasional movie nights.
‘We are good friends and we love each other, so we are very fortunate in that aspect,’ she said. ‘I think that’s why people are confused and sometimes question if it is even true that we’re separated.
‘I even have a hard time believing that we are as well, so I can understand. But we’re lucky in a sense, we don’t argue, and we can have a peaceful environment in our home and all give each other that space.’
