The Five Biggest Shocks In Kyle Richards And Mauricio Umansky's 2025 Separation Update: Not Divorced, New Relationships, And A Cancelled Show
The ongoing saga of Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky has dominated reality television headlines for over two years, and as of late 2025, the situation remains a complex web of separation, new relationships, and professional fallout. Despite announcing their separation in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage, the couple is still legally married, with no divorce papers filed, maintaining an "amicable" status that continues to baffle fans of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills (RHOBH).
This December 2025 update brings several major, fresh developments, including Kyle's public confirmation of a post-separation romance that ended due to "gossip," the surprising cancellation of Mauricio's Netflix series, Buying Beverly Hills, and the confirmed relationship status of both parties.

The Amicable Split: Why Kyle and Mauricio Are Still Not Divorced in 2025
The most persistent question surrounding the couple is their legal status. Despite the intense media scrutiny and the emotional distance, as of December 2025, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky are legally separated but have not filed for divorce.
The "Amicable, Loving" Arrangement
At BravoCon 2025, Kyle provided a crucial update, describing their separation as "amicable, loving," suggesting a functional, albeit unconventional, arrangement. This status allows them to co-parent their daughters—Farrah, Alexia, Sophia, and Portia—and navigate their shared professional and financial lives without the finality of a divorce decree.
The couple has publicly stated that they still live under the same roof, or at least maintain a very close co-existence, which is a major source of fan curiosity. Kyle has mentioned having an "impromptu conversation" with Mauricio about their future, indicating that the final decision regarding divorce is still an open, evolving discussion, not a settled one.
The Impact on Their Daughters
Kyle has acknowledged the deep emotional toll the separation has taken on their children. She revealed that their daughters "struggle" with the public nature of the breakup and the constant speculation. Managing the separation while starring on two different reality shows—RHOBH and Buying Beverly Hills—has made privacy virtually impossible for the family.
The Dating Life & The Morgan Wade Speculation
One of the biggest bombshells of their separation has been the highly publicized speculation about Kyle's relationship with country singer Morgan Wade. While Kyle initially maintained that they were just close friends, updates from late 2025 confirm a shift in her personal life.
Kyle's Confirmed Romance and The "Gossip" Fallout
In a December 2025 episode of RHOBH, Kyle confirmed that she had been in a romantic relationship since separating from Mauricio. She later revealed that this romance, which she has not explicitly named but is widely believed to be with Morgan Wade, ended due to the intense "gossip" and public pressure. This admission finally defined her relationship status, moving her from "separated" to "dating" and back again, all while still married to Mauricio.
This period of her life has been marked by a major shift in identity, including a physical transformation (sobriety, fitness) and a new, edgy style, which she attributes to her close friendship with Wade. The relationship, whether a "one-off" as suggested by castmate Erika Jayne, or a deeper connection, has become a central storyline for RHOBH.
Mauricio's Confirmed Status
Mauricio Umansky has also been linked to new partners since the separation. In November 2025, he confirmed his own relationship status publicly, although he has been more reserved about sharing details compared to the intense speculation surrounding Kyle. His decision to be more open about his personal life is a significant departure from his previous on-screen persona, which focused primarily on his business, The Agency.
Business and Reality TV Fallout: The End of 'Buying Beverly Hills'
The separation drama has had a direct impact on the couple's professional endeavors, most notably in the realm of reality television. The family's dual presence on Bravo and Netflix created a unique, overlapping narrative that has now been partially severed.
The Surprising Cancellation of 'Buying Beverly Hills'
In a major development in late 2025, Netflix announced that Mauricio Umansky's reality series, Buying Beverly Hills, would not be renewed for a third season. The show, which followed Mauricio and his daughters Alexia and Sophia at his real estate firm, The Agency, reportedly failed to meet renewal thresholds after two seasons. The cancellation is a significant blow to The Agency's public profile, which had leveraged the show as a massive marketing tool.
The Agency's 2025 Outlook
Despite the TV cancellation, The Agency, which Mauricio co-founded, continues its global expansion efforts. In 2025, Mauricio discussed the company’s resilience, noting that they were still opening dozens of offices a year despite a challenging real estate market. The financial success of the firm remains a key entity in the couple's overall wealth, and the question of how this $57 billion enterprise will be divided, if they eventually divorce, adds another layer of complexity to their separation.
RHOBH: The Main Stage
With Buying Beverly Hills off the air, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills remains the primary platform for the separation narrative. The show is expected to continue documenting the fallout, the co-parenting challenges, and the ongoing attempts by Kyle and Mauricio to redefine their relationship outside of the traditional marriage structure. Fans are eagerly watching to see if the "amicable" status can hold, or if the mounting pressure will finally push one of them to file the long-awaited divorce papers.
