Do Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky Have a Prenup? </a>

<p id=”par-5_79″>That could all change soon, though. While Richards has been rumored to be romancing <a href=”https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/kyle-richards-addresses-rumors-about-her-involvement-in-upcoming-season-of-the-real-housewives-of-beverly-hills.html/”>Morgan Wade</a>, she denies all allegations. She might consider finding a public romantic partner now that Mauricio Umansky was spotted kissing Nikita Kahn during a Grecian getaway, though. Thirty-three-year-old Kahn is an actor and model. <a href=”https://www.tmz.com/2024/07/19/mauricio-umansky-holding-hands-actress-nikita-kahn-greece/” target=”_blank” rel=”noreferrer noopener”>TMZ</a> published photos of the duo looking cozy during a beach getaway. Days later, Richards opted to change her Instagram bio. She no longer has herself listed as a “wife.”</p>
<p id=”par-6_43″>Neither Richards nor Umansky have commented on the recent pictures or whether one of them will opt to file for divorce. If Umansky has moved into a new relationship, it’s probably time to get the legal part of the separation all squared away. </p>
