Kyle Richards is speaking out against the latest slew of rumors suggesting she and her husband, Mauricio Umansky, are divorcing.
Following a series of social media reports claiming the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills couple had decided to end their marriage, Kyle attended the Elton John AIDS Foundation Oscars viewing party, where she reacted to the rumors, teased season 13, and insisted she and her castmates, despite their many feuds, are like “sisters.”
“I used to get so upset about these things. I don’t even care. I’m not losing any sleep over it,” Kyle confirmed of the false reports to Entertainment Tonight on March 12. “The analyzing of everything is so — we were just talking about that in the car. I’m seen out at the gym without a ring on, or the rumors about weight loss. I just — I can’t keep up anymore.”
“I don’t know if it’s getting used to it, or just I’ve been through so much I’ve thrown in the towel,” Kyle continued. “I don’t really know. All I know is my anxiety is better than it’s ever been, and I just — I just can’t stress about it anymore.”
According to Kyle, who is currently filming the new season, fans will see a shift in dynamics following the January exit of Lisa Rinna.
“We started out as six housewives originally, in seasons one and two, so right now, that doesn’t necessarily mean that what you see is what you get yet. So, stay tuned for that,” she teased. “But there are going to be some faces missing this season, obviously.”
With Lisa and Diana Jenkins out, the group has been able to form different relationships.
“It’s always interesting to see how the dynamics shift, as other people come and go, and it makes for an interesting show. And it’s interesting to watch now how people who didn’t get along, do, or the ones that did, now don’t,” Kyle revealed. “[It] just changes everything.”
Although Kyle has gone through a lot of intense moments with her castmates, she said that at the end of the day, they’re like family.
“They really all are like sisters to me,” Kyle insisted. “We have moments throughout, but we spend a lot of time together, and we all support each other in our businesses, all our ventures, and they really are a sisterhood. I would say all the housewives, but obviously my [RHOBH] girls — they mean a lot to me.”
“That’s why I think I get so upset when we do have arguments because I’m the type of person I’ll lose sleep over that, because I care about them,” she added.
In a separate interview with Access Online, Kyle admitted she had yet to meet baby Phoenix, the newborn son of her niece Paris Hilton.
“I have not met him yet. I’ve only seen pictures and he is beautiful,” said Kyle, later adding that she did get him a “classic” gift from Tiffany’s when asked if she had sent a gift.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 13 is currently in production and expected to premiere on Bravo sometime later this year.
