Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky have no prenup.
Amid the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars’ months-long separation, a new report has revealed that Kyle, 54, and Mauricio’s estimated $100 million fortune would be up for grabs if they were to ultimately split — as Kyle appeared on a special BravoCon episode of Watch What Happens Live, where she explained her red carpet “divorce” comment.
“I misspoke on the carpet today. Two times I had to correct someone when they said ‘divorce.’ I said, ‘separated’ and then I went and said it, and then it went everywhere,” Kyle shared, via Entertainment Tonight. “So that was my bad.”
According to Kyle, she and Mauricio are “still amicable” despite the many photos that have surfaced of Mauricio, 53, and his Dancing With the Stars partner, Emma Slater, 34.
“I still consider my marriage with Mauricio a success,” Kyle clarified. “We’re still a love story, and I love him very much.”
Following the appearance, Kyle spoke with Entertainment Tonight, further confirming her love for her spouse.
“All I know is we love each other. We still live under the same roof and we both want the best for each other,” she insisted. “I am so happy that it is amicable right now and I hope it stays that way.” She noted that she and Mauricio are, “Just taking it a day at a time and putting our family first.”
While Kyle initially hid her and Mauricio’s marriage problems from the RHOBH cameras, she revealed that she did so only out of hope that they’d be able to work things out among themselves.
“I didn’t know how to navigate it in my own life, let alone with the cameras. So I think there is a lot of confusion in the beginning, like what is really going on?” Kyle admitted. “People want to create a whole drama and all that — but clearly I was going through a hard time. I seem a little angry, upset, which I was.”

Although fans will have to wait and see what exactly led up to Kyle and Mauricio’s separation, a report on Tuesday confirmed that they are not yet talking to divorce lawyers.
On November 7, TMZ revealed that while Kyle and Mauricio have not met with anyone regarding potential legal steps to end their marriage, they do not have a prenuptial in place nor are they working on mending their marriage.
The report also stated that their estimated net worth is $100 million.
As RHOBH fans may know, Mauricio was struggling in the fashion industry when he and Kyle tied the knot in 1996. But now, decades later, he’s riding high on the horse with his global real estate firm, The Agency.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
