Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky allegedly dragged out their divorce to get their reality bag.
According to new reports, the estranged couple have no intention of repairing their marriage, which has reportedly reached the point of no return.
Are Kyle Richards & Mauricio Umansky Dragging Out Their Breakup?

People close to the situation surrounding Richards and Umansky’s crumbling marriage have claimed that the two may be prolonging their relationship issues for the sake of the reality show’s cameras.
Their extensive discussion about why they broke up shows evidence of them dragging things out without really delving into the core issues.
It also doesn’t help that the upcoming season of Umansky’s reality series, “Buying Beverly Hills,” will make the breakup a prominent storyline, as depicted in the Netflix trailer for the show’s second season.
Surprisingly, no one attacked or publicly called out the ex for prolonging the situation. As long as they are okay with it, they in their circle see leveraging their personal struggles for professional advancement as a strategic move.
In addition, the source points to TMZ that Richards and Umansky don’t need to rush the divorce process right away, given their ability to live in multiple homes if tensions rise.
Ultimately, the reality stars’ enduring bond, forged by years of shared experience and unwavering commitment to their children, is expected to ensure they remain in close contact.
Umansky Ready to Broadcast Marriage Problems

Umansky recently delved into viewers’ glimpses of her relationship rift in her upcoming show with TMZ.
As claimed by a real estate broker, the conversation recorded in the trailer for the second season of “Buying Beverly Hills” was not staged.
Instead, he revealed that cameras were scheduled to film the family in Aspen last summer, coinciding with the weekend when news of the split surfaced online.
The author of “The Dealmaker” further explained that his family chose not to hide their issues from the cameras and instead chose to be exposed on the show.
Kyle Richards Hits Out on Rumors of Creating a Breakup Story

Shortly before the update from Umansky, Richards defended herself against claims the breakup was fake. According to The Blast, the “Eaten Alive” actress expressed disbelief at the notion that she would fabricate a story about her failed marriage for ratings and publicity.
After questioning why anyone would create such a narrative to manipulate ratings and put their family through such turmoil, Richards dismissed the idea as ridiculous. As he told Alex Baskin:
“I’m going to pretend that I’m separated and torture my children so that people will follow? I mean, it’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever heard.”
Acknowledging her desire to remain relevant to her friends, family and career, Richards emphasized that actions involving divorce are boundaries she will not cross.
Why Did Umansky Miss Intimate Events Hosted By His Wife?

One act that seemed to prove to viewers that the couple’s breakup was real was that Umansky skipped a celebration of life that Richards organized for her close friend, Lorene Shea, who died by suicide in May 2022.
The broker’s absence became a topic of conversation when “RHOBH” co-star Sutton Stracke asked Richards about his whereabouts during a tour in the days following the event.
Richards explained, “He’s in Mexico City. First, he was in Aspen, then he flew to Mexico City on his friend’s plane.”
However, Stracke didn’t buy the mother of four’s explanation, especially since Richards said that Umansky would be on time for a charity event organized by Dorit Kemsley. He said:
“I do not accept the reasons Mo gave. Unless you’re in the hospital or dying in the ditch, you’ll be there for your wife and your wife’s best friend’s family.”
Later, Stracke shared more of his frustration, “Okay, Mauricio, you can come to the Homeless Not Teeth event, but you can’t come to the celebration of life event for your wife? That’s messed up.”
Spouse’s Divorce May Be Contentious For This Reason

It’s worth noting that one of the factors that potentially contributed to Umansky and Richards finalizing their divorce was the lack of a prenuptial agreement. Because of that, the decision to pursue legal action may ultimately result in a dispute over assets.
Umansky’s net worth is estimated at $100 million, primarily derived from nearly $5 billion in real estate sales accumulated during her marriage to the reality star.
Before venturing into real estate, the 53-year-old had a modest income in the fashion industry and even worked for Richards’ father, Rick Hilton, before setting up The Agency in 2011.
Her partner is no slouch either as she has amassed a comparable fortune from her television career on “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.”
Richards’ former “RHOBH” co-star, Camille Meyer, claimed that in Season 1, she earned $136,000 for the entire season, which equates to about $12,363.64 per episode for the season’s 11 episodes.
Rumors suggest that the socialite’s salary has nearly doubled since then, to a reported $270,000 for Season 12.
