Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky started the new year falling back on familiar territory.
The duo â who are currently separated â looked âvery obviously togetherâ at Kate Hudson and Cade Hudsonâs starry New Yearâs Eve party in Aspen, Colo., an eyewitness exclusively tells Page Six.
âThey were really enjoying one anotherâs company. They had their arms around one another and were very touchy and warm with one another all night,â our source says.
âThey were very obviously together and wanting to spend the party by one anotherâs side. If you didnât know they had split up, you would presume they were still happily married.â
The pair put on the apparently romantic display in front of a star-studded bash, with guests including Goldie Hawn, Kurt Russell, Kim Kardashian, Brooks Nader and her sisters, Bella Hadid, Evan Ross, Anya Taylor-Joy, Elon Musk, Lewis Hamilton, Rachel Zoe, Shawn White and more.
Reps for Richards, 56, and Umansky, 55, did not immediately respond to Page Sixâs requests for comment.
As we previously reported, the two had reunited in Aspen on Dec. 24 with their four daughters â Farrah, 37, Alexia, 29, Sophia, 25, and Portia, 17 â the eldest of whom Richards welcomed with her first husband, Guraish Aldjufrie.
During the family trip, Sophia posted a sweet video of her parents enjoying a movie night together, prompting thousands of comments from fans hoping they get back together.
âMy parents watching their little movie and eating their little popcorn on the floor like little kids,â she wrote atop the TikTok.
Richards and Umanskyâs flirtations come shortly after he was photographed cozying up to 34-year-old âFBoy Islandâ alum Celisa âCJâ Franco, which resulted in an awkward family Thanksgiving.
âThat [story] was released during Thanksgiving dinner, which kinda sucked,â Umansky exclusively told Page Six on Dec. 3.
âSo weâre all having Thanksgiving dinner, and Sophiaâs like, âDad, what the fâk is this?â Iâm like, âWhat are you talking about?ââ
Despite how intimate the photos look, luxury real estate broker insisted that he and Franco are just pals.
âCJâs my friend. Itâs just that simple,â he said. âThe photos look more cozy or more whatever than what the reality is. Like, weâre friends.â
Franco isnât the first much-younger woman the Agency founder has been linked to since he and Richards confirmed their separation in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage.
His first public love interest post-split came the following July with actress Nikita Kahn, 35.
By December 2024, he had already moved onto his next romantic fling and was spotted kissing model Klaudia K, 33.
Meanwhile, on the Dec. 11 episode of âThe Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,â Richards confirmed that she was in a relationship after their separation but clarified that she is âsingle now.â
Notably, the exes have yet to file for divorce despite their other involvements.
Richards and Umansky have remained close and even continued living together for nine months after they ended their romantic relationship.
