Built to Last? See RHOBH’s Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky Relationship and Marriage Timeline

1994

Kyle and Mauricio met at West Hollywood hotspot Bar One. They were 23 and 24 years old, respectively. She was engaged to CBS news anchor Michael Tuck at the time, but the attraction was so strong. Kyle and her fiancé soon split, and Mauricio proposed later the same year at a restaurant in Santa Monica.

“I took her to Shutters on a date, and I gave her a bouquet of flowers. And it was a very pretty, romantic evening and inside the flowers I had [a ring box that looked like a rosebud],” Mauricio told The Knot in 2021. “So, I gave her the flowers hoping she would see the fake flower or box. Of course, she didn’t because it was such a good box. So, I had to tell her, ‘Honey, smell the flowers, like, do they all smell the same?’”

Kyle eventually discovered the ring and Mauricio dropped to one knee as he asked her to marry him.

“I was just so happy and excited—it was a dream for me,” the RHOBH star explained. “The moment we started dating, I just felt like he was the one.“

1996

the couple tied the knot on January 20. “The wedding was originally going to be, I believe, in April, and then we moved it up to January so my dress would still fit because I was pregnant,” she told The Knot. Kyle’s daughter, Farrah, from her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie was part of the ceremony. Mauricio told the outlet, “I also got insight into the way that she was as a mom and how good of a mom she was. And that gave me insight into the future and what it would look like.”

The pair welcomed their first child, daughter Alexia, on June 18, 1996. They would go on to have two more daughters, Sophia, born on January 18, 2000, and Portia, who arrived on March 1, 2008.

2010

Kyle became one of the original members of RHOBH, which also featured Mauricio and their family. She’s the only OG cast member still with the Bravo hit.

2011

Tycoon in the making! High-end real estate broker Mauricio left his position at prestigious Hilton and Hyland to start his own global boutique real estate firm, The Agency.

2021

Kyle and Mauricio celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. The reality star gushed about how he still made her heart flutter in a touching Instagram post.

“Our family is our greatest accomplishment,” she wrote. “I still get happy when I hear your car pull in the driveway and still get sad if we have to spend a night apart. How is that even possible?? May we continue to grow, learn, explore, experience & create incredible memories side by side. I love you forever.”

June 2023

Rumors began to swirl that there was trouble in Kyle and Mauricio’s marriage. She didn’t post her usual loving wedding anniversary post in January and had spent a good amount of time with country singer Morgan Wade during the past year. In a June Instagram post titled “Life lately,” she shared a selfie with Morgan at the gym and another featuring the women on vacation in Aspen, Colorado. Mauricio was not featured in any of the photos.

Kyle posted a rather dry Father’s Day tribute unlike her loving ones in years past, writing, “So grateful that our girls have such an incredible Dad.”

July 2023

After denying they were divorcing, Kyle celebrated one year of sobriety on July 16. “Alcohol made me feel depressed the next day no matter how fun the night before was. And honestly, life is going to throw us some difficult days. I certainly don’t need to be adding any extra ones to that list,” she wrote in an Instagram post.

September 2023

While entering a Dancing With the Stars rehearsal on September 29, Mauricio said he had “no doubt” Kyle “has not slept or cheated with” Morgan. He continued, “They are really great friends, they are filming stuff together,” referring to the documentary Kyle is producing about Morgan’s life, adding, “They’re doing things together. They are not in a relationship.”

Kyle’s relationship with the country artist appears to be an upcoming plot point in season 13 of RHOBH. The “Wilder Days” singer appeared in the trailer that dropped on October 3, where Morgan said reality star “stalked” her when asked how the ladies met. Kyle was then seen tattooing a large black “K” on Morgan’s arm while costar Dorit Kemsley alarmingly asked, “You put the first letter of your name on her body? What is going on Kyle?”

In the following scene, a smiling Mauricio told his wife in a joking voice, “I’m just glad it’s you out there having an affair,” while Kyle responded, “For once it’s me,” as his face appeared to drop. The couple was then seen sitting with their three daughters and having a serious family meeting as Kyle explained, “We’re a strong family and we always will be … always will be, nothing can change that,” as all three girls burst into tears and Mauricio looked down at the floor, seeming heartbroken.
