Kyle Richards criticized her “Actual Housewives of Beverly Hills” co-stars for persistently grilling her about ongoing marital issues with ex-husband Mauricio Umansky.
“The way they got to me was not through a loving person or a friend who said, ‘Do you want someone? Are you well? Are all parts OK? Do you want something?’” Richards said on Wednesday’s episode of Kelly Ripa’s podcast, “Let’s Discuss Off Camera.”
She added: “It was unbelievable – in fact, it felt inhumane.”
The longtime “RHOBH” star explained that she first told the women about her and Umansky early in the season, then she found their questioning afterward to be “relentless.”
“Did you notice, I said, ‘I’m going to tell the women we were having problems,’ (and) they were relentless. They wanted to know all the problems,” she continued.
Richards, 55, admitted that she “would have” trusted them if they “came to me in an off-camera way,” but apparently they didn’t.
“They also knew the other things that had happened in my life — not just my marriage — the other things that I was dealing with, and I was like, ‘Are you ready to not give me some grace? ” she shared.
Richards didn’t go into detail about other aspects of her life, but she mentioned elsewhere in the podcast that the women also knew she was “still dealing with the loss” of her longtime best friend, Lorene Shea.
“I was like, ‘Guys, give me a break,’” she recalled.
The mother of four explained that she “didn’t do anything to harm anyone” in the cast, but was still being “treated like this.”
“Why wasn’t there anyone there for me to lean on? Obviously some more than others,” she said, clarifying that she wasn’t referring to all of her co-stars, and “clearly we know who was driving the bus in that situation.”
Richards didn’t specify which of her co-stars she was talking about, but she previously clashed with Sutton Stracke and Garcelle Beauvais when the two asked about her marriage in an explosive episode of “RHOBH.”
Stracke accused Richards of “not being sincere,” while Beauvais wondered why Richards wasn’t wearing her wedding ring and even asked if she replaced it with a “makeup” one.

“When your husband messes up and you get a gift. They buy you something to forget what they did,” Beauvais said in the episode that aired in November 2023.
Richards was upset by Beauvais’ accusation and shouted, “So what you’re saying is that my husband is dishonest with me?”
Shortly after filming wrapped on the final season of “RHOBH,” Web Page Six confirmed that Richards and Umansky, 53, had separated after 27 years of marriage.
Both Richards and Umansky have remained tight-lipped about what exactly led to their breakup, but Richards previously explained that there were issues between the two that they never addressed or accepted until recently.
Richards also shared that “there were issues” that caused her to lose trust in Umansky, but she did not specify what those issues were.
