What The Heck Is Going On With The Men Of "The Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills" Season 13 Right Now?
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hillsare coming back to Bravo for season *13* next week, and it has the potential to be the most dramatic yet. With everything surrounding Kyle and Mauricio, Lisa Rinna's dramatic exit, and Erica vs. Denise...I don't even know what to expect! While we all anticipate the likely raucous return of these Real Housewivesfaves, here's everything to know about this season!
These Beverly Hills babes are back, and they brought some bombshells with them for the season 13 premiere!
First thing's first, as briefly mentioned in the sneak peak, this episode confirmed that Lisa Rinna quit and wasn't fired from Real Housewives. Rinna's been through a lot for the past decade on the show, and my guess is her Cancer heart just couldn't take it anymore. We'll miss her kooky catch phrases and extravagant wigs!
Next to note is that Sutton's getting a hefty check for her spousal support — $300,000 a month, to be exact. On top of other assets she got in the split, Sutton even got to keep her AMEX points, noting, "Hey! She earned those fair and square!" As a points girly, I support.
And now on to the elephant in every Real Housewives room these days — Kyle and Mauricio. While not much was revealed about the nature of their relationship and subsequent split on the show at first, it was pretty telling that Mauricio didn't even know how many tattoos his wife has. After the first episode aired, Kyle chatted with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live to elaborate on the nature of her relationship as of now. She noted that the two still cohabitate, but they each stay in separate rooms. Kyle also intimated that she doesn't know the details about Mauricio and Emma Slater, but that it really hurt her to see them holding hands. I can't imagine hearing about all their great chemistry on the show helped that much...Oof.
Now, Kyle's not holding back when it comes to sharing her unhappiness in this less than harmonious marriage. Throughout the season, she's hinted at struggles from Mauricio's many work obligations to her desire to focus more on her needs. The last two weeks, though, Kyle seemed more direct about her feelings.
In episode 15, Kyle explained that she and Mauricio don't fight, but they also don't communicate very well. She said, “If there’s no effort made or put into us, we’re not gonna end up together. We’ll never survive this.” This theme continued in the penultimate episode, where Kyle explained that she doesn't feel heard by her husband. She explained, “I’m not gonna stay in a situation that I'm not happy in. The things that I wouldn’t want my daughters to accept, I’m not going to accept for myself.” And after watching the sneak peak, it seems like she and Mauricio are making tough calls and finally bringing their girls into the fold. Fingers crossed this sweet family can make it work, whatever that looks like!
While Kyle and Mo have been the prevailing partnership in the narrative this season, I'd be remiss not to mention what I've noticed with Dorit and PK. All season long, it's seemed like PK didn't particularly understand the ins and outs of Dorit's severe PTSD, often showing frustration with how it arises in social settings. It's definitely normal for couples to work through trauma differently, but PK's frustration felt rooted in other issues. Not to mention, he planned an anniversary night that was...uh...a little off earlier in the season. In the latest season, the straw that broke the camels back TO ME was when PK seemed to insinuate that he doesn't need to celebrate Mother's Day for Dorit because she's "not his mom." Um????
I have a feeling the season finale is gonna be dramatic this year — and that's saying a LOT given last year's Kathy of it all.
Are Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky still together?

No, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky are separated. This comes after increased suspicions surrounding Kyle's friendship with country singer, Morgan Wade. Not only did she appear as a love interest in Morgan's latest music video, but Morgan also got Kyle's initial tattooed on her body.
Mauricio was recently spotted out and about with his Dancing With The Starspartner, Emma Slater. She is recently divorced, and Mauricio is seemingly back on the market these days. Kyle's not too happy about this, per her interview on Watch What Happens Live, and we hate to see her hurting.
While we don't know the nature of the split (and the friendship in question), we think we'll find out more during The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 13. And ultimately, we hope the Umansky family is taking care of themselves amid the heightened speculations.
Are Dorit and PK still married?

Everything we officially know about Dorit and PK is that they're still married. However, according to a recent blind item — AKA an anonymously submitted tip to the media — The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is set to see another separation, and it's apparently not who you expect, according to this TikTok from Stephanie Tleiji. Tleiji broke down the blind item, couple-by-couple, noting who is already single, who is clearly happily married, and who is already separated. After going through it all, Tleiji was left with one couple to speculate on — Dorit and PK.
After doing some further investigation, it seems like Bravo is alluding to trouble in paradise for these two, publishing an article about their relationship timeline that says, "These "twin souls" have longed claimed to be better together, but could trouble be brewing in paradise for Dorit and PK?"
We're keeping our fingers crossed that the two can work things out, and that everyone in the family is doing alright.
Is Lisa Rinna returning for "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" Season 13?

No, Lisa Rinna will not return for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 13. In the latest sneak peak, we got to see her highly controversial resignation letter. The email reads, "I will not be renewing my contract and I will not be coming back to RHOBH. Thank you so much for 8 years!!!!" Lisa recently joined Bethenny Frankel's initiative towards a reality TV union, so we think it's safe to say we won't see much of her in the Bravo-verse for the time being.
Who will be on "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" Season 13?

Real Housewives of Beverly Hills OG, Kyle Richards will be joined by Erika Jayne, Garcelle Beauvais, Crystal Kung Minkoff, Dorit Kemsley, and Sutton Stracke. We'll get a new face, Annemarie Wiley, as well as a return appearance from Denise Richards.

It's never easy to get the girls back in the same room following a reunion, but this year feels especially edgy. While I applaud Dorit for taking the initiative and seeking solutions for everyone with this retreat, I can't help but worry about what will be said. Will Kyle be able to speak her peace? Will anyone actually apologize? Next week's premiere can't come fast enough, TBH!
