Kyle Richards' estranged husband Mauricio Umansky may have been the one who was caught kissing someone new in paparazzi photos, but it didn't take long for the chatter to turn back to Kyle once she was spotted backstage at Morgan Wade's concert a few days later.
As a result, tabloids started speculating that The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member was using Morgan to make Mauricio "jealous." She sounded off on the accusation during Season 14, Episode 14 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show.
"I have no interest in retaliating, and Mau doesn't even get jealous so it doesn't really matter," Kyle said.
What's more, the primary reason she was at Morgan's concerts is because she had a planned "appearance." Regardless, "I had gone to lots of different shows [before]," Kyle added. "It had nothing to do with that. He would never care or be jealous of that, ever."
She made a similar clarification on RHOBH, telling Dorit Kemsley, "Let's be honest, the whole joke of it all is he doesn't even get jealous anyway. If I'm going to make him jealous, it would be a lot more than the way I was in those photos."
The RHOBH cast weighs in on Kyle's appearance at Morgan Wade's concert amid Mauricio's paparazzi photos
After Kyle denied the notion that she was trying to make Mauricio jealous, her RHOBH castmates weighed in on the matter. Dorit, for her part, said, "When I first saw the picture of Kyle side-stage at Morgan's concert, my first thought was it could be interpreted in so many ways; that Mau was splashed all over and Kyle wanted to show publicly that she's doing fine, she's fine, she's good, she looks great."
"I wouldn't blame her," Bozoma Saint John chimed in. "I feel like it's a tit for tat — 'Okay, let's keep going.' See, now that's some honesty for you! I would be the one."
Sutton Stracke had a theory of her own, noting, "I said to Kyle, it seems to me that you and Mau use the paparazzi to fight. Like, that's their way of communication."
As for Kyle's thoughts on all the speculation, she concluded, "At this point, nothing surprises me. So, I'm not annoyed, I'm not shocked, I'm just like, 'I see you.'"
