Kyle Richards admitted she would date a woman during Wednesday’s new episode of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.

Following months of rumors regarding the nature of her relationship with Morgan Wade, 28, who she insists is nothing more than a close friend, Kyle, 54, confirmed to her castmates, including Crystal Kung-Minkoff, 40, and Dorit Kemsley, 47, that she is not opposed to engaging in a romantic relationship with another woman.

“Would you ever date a woman?” Kyle asked during a sit-down with her co-stars, causing Dorit to nearly spit out her drink.

But Crystal turned the tables on Kyle, asking her, “Would you?”

“Yeah,” Kyle replied.

In other Kyle Richards news, the mother of four took to her Instagram Story on Wednesday, where she shared a photo of herself from the gym in which she was seen standing to the side in a mirror selfie.

“2024 let’s go!” she proclaimed as she showed off her arm muscles in a black tank top, navy blue pants, and a black hat.

As RHOBH fans may have seen, Kyle rang in the new year in Aspen with her family, including estranged husband Mauricio Umansky, 53, who had previously been seen spending time with a number of other women, including influencer Alexandria Wolfe, 31, Brazilian singer Anitta, and YouTube personality LeLe Pons, 27.

After landing in Colorado in December, around the time that Kyle traveled to Mexico for a getaway with friend Faye Resnick, 66, Mauricio enjoyed a dinner date with Alexandria before hitting the ski slopes with Anitta and LeLe, who caused a stir as they stripped down to towels on the snow-covered mountain.

While Mauricio sparked romance rumors with his outings with the other ladies, he reunited with Kyle ahead of New Year’s Eve for a shopping trip with their daughters, including Farrah Aldjufrie, 35, Alexia Umansky, 27, Sophia Umansky, 23, and Portia Umansky, 15.

Addressing her split from Mauricio at the end of last month, Kyle admitted to feeling as if they had let down fans and spoke of the challenges she faced amid season 13.

“People were upset when they heard [Mauricio and I] were having problems. I felt like we let people down,” Kyle told Us Weekly. “Some were saying [our marriage] was a farce the whole time. But there were also sweet and supportive messages.”

“It was difficult shooting the season because I was going through stuff in my marriage, but our daughters didn’t know, and I didn’t feel like sharing it on camera quite yet,” she continued. “But I was honest with the [cast]. When they started grilling me, I was like, ‘Why are you acting like I haven’t been honest? I told you it’s the worst year we’ve ever had.’

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 airs Wednesdays at 8/7c on Bravo.
