Kyle Richards isn’t rushing her next relationship.
The “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star’s sister Kathy Hilton told People Tuesday that Richards has been “just taking her time” since splitting from Mauricio Umansky in 2023.
“We just wrapped [Season 14 of the Bravo show] a month ago, so she’s spending a lot of time with her girls,” Hilton, 65, explained, referencing her nieces.
Richards, 55, welcomed Alexia, 28, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16, with Umansky during their 27-year marriage — and is also the mother of Farrah, 36, with ex-husband Guraish Aldjufrie.
News broke last summer that the former couple had called it quits.
Hilton clarified that she hasn’t cut off contact with Umansky, 54, because they are “family” and she “want[s] it all to be nice.”
The fashion designer noted, “I have my nieces I love and adore, and I like everybody to get along.”
Richards also still “communicate[s]” with the real estate agent, who moved out of their marital home in May, according to her friend Teddi Mellencamp.
The 43-year-old, who is currently navigating her own divorce from Edwin Arroyave, claimed last month that the duo “get along.”
In July, however, Umansky made headlines for his new romance with model Nikita Kahn.
Photos of the pair kissing emerged nine months after Umansky “hurt” Richards for seemingly going on PDA-filled dates with his “Dancing With the Stars” partner Emma Slater.
Can’t get enough ‘Real Housewives’?
“That [was] very hard to see,” the “taken aback” Bravolebrity told “Watch What Happens Live” viewers in October 2023 after the Season 32 contestants were spotted holding hands.
Richards, for her part, has been romantically linked to country singer Morgan Wade — but has repeatedly labeled their bond platonic.
The alleged pals sent tongues wagging in August 2023 when Richards starred as the love interest in the performer’s “Fall in Love With Me” music video.
The pair have continued to hang out, with Richards most recently supporting Wade at the Minnesota Yacht Club Festival in July.
