The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards had a conversation with estranged husband Mauricio Umansky about her sister Kathy Hilton’s comments on their marriage.
During a Monday, November 27, interview with Today, Hilton, 64, was asked if she thinks Richards 54, and Umansky, 53, will reconcile over their issues.
“There’s no way Kyle would’ve gone this far unless she really thought about it,” Hilton replied.
Richards reacted to her sister’s remarks while speaking with Extra special correspondent and former costar Teddi Mellencamp on Tuesday, November 28th.
“When she said that, I was like, ‘Oh, my gosh, that’s just going to start a whole thing too,’ and actually I texted [Mauricio],” Richards shared. “I’m like, ‘I know you’re going to see this,’ and he’s like, ‘I just saw. I’m not even looking at these things anymore. I’m not going to do any deep dives.’”
Richards claimed that while it is ‘upsetting’ to see her personal life be in the headlines, she does not think her sister was trying to cause any trouble.
Mellencamp, 42, agreed there was not anything ‘malicious’ about the situation.

Richards and Hilton did not see eye to eye during season 12 of RHOBH, which aired las tyear.
Things came to an explosive ending when Lisa Rinna claimed that Hilton said she wanted to ‘destroy Kyle and her family” in an offscreen conversation.
Despite all of this, Richards told Mellencamp on Tuesday that Hilton and her other sister Kim, have been there as she navigates this journey.
“Here’s the thing, the truth is, my sisters have been very supportive by offering their support, texting me, calling me, but I haven’t shared with my sisters anything about really what’s going on in my marriage, to be honest,” she said. “I tend to keep to myself when I’m going through a difficult time.”
What’s Trending confirmed that Richards and Umansky had split after 27 years of marriage. Shortly after, the two confirmed they had the “most challenging” year of their relationship via a joint Instagram statement.

“We get along, we don’t argue, so it was actually nice,” Richards told Mellencamp of spending the holiday with Umansky. “We had our friends over, a couple friends, and our girls were there. … I never expected to be in this position in a million years, you know that — and obviously it’s not ideal — but I feel proud of the way we are navigating through this difficult time.”
