Kyle Richards has questioned the future of her marriage to Mauricio Umansky, revealing that things need to change for the pair to stay together.
In a preview clip of next week’s episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” the show’s OG, 55, expressed her concerns over the pair’s relationship woes following their separation after 27 years of marriage.
“If there’s no effort, we’re not going to end up together,” the Bravolebrity says about Umansky, whose real estate firm The Agency continues to expand rapidly.
The business’s success has seemingly backfired on the couple’s relationship, as Richards, who initiated the split from Umansky, admits that his lack of free time has caused some friction.
In the clip, the “Halloween” actress can be heard expressing her annoyance over Umansky’s never-ending work schedule.

Despite airing out her grievances on the show, Richards last week admitted she has no idea how to live her life without Umansky.
“I’ve been married almost my entire adult life,” the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, 55, said on SiriusXM’s “Jeff Lewis Live” Thursday. “I don’t even know what life is without being with Mauricio. It’s hard. It’s painful. It’s scary.”

“I have four daughters, and they are my best friends, but he’s also my friend, and I do love him very much, and that’s what’s also hard,” she explained to Lewis.
