Kyle Richards Declares She'd Date a Woman as She Breaks Down to Pal Morgan Wade About Her Anxiety

Kyle's admission comes as romance rumors with Morgan have been swirling amid her separation from husband Mauricio Umansky

Kyle Richards is open to love in all forms.

In a sneak peek of what's to come on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, the Bravo mainstay, 54, asks her fellow housewives if they would consider "dating a woman" during a particularly rowdy lunch.

While Dorit Kemsley nearly spits out her wine, Crystal Kung Minkoff turns the question back onto Kyle, who answers her query with a simple "yeah" and a little nod.

Elsewhere in the teaser, Kyle is seen struggling with a looming decision. With her gaze fixed with a problem on her phone, she admits to pal Morgan Wade, "I'm so anxious," as she bites her lip pensively.

"I really don't know if I can do it," she continues before the country singer assures her, "You got it."

Kyle's declaration comes as rumors of a romance with Morgan have been swirling amid her separation from husband Mauricio Umansky.

The two first became friends after connecting on social media and since then, they've spent a lot of time together from joint workouts to vacations with other Housewives stars.

In this season of RHOBH, Bravo fans even saw Kyle tattooing her initial onto Morgan's arm — a gesture that had her costars raising their eyebrows.

After their friendship started spawning relationship rumors, the pair poked fun at the gossip in Morgan's music video for her single "Fall in Love with Me” in August 2023. In the video, which features Kyle as the country singer's love interest, the duo feeds each other fruit, shares a bubble bath and — almost — kisses.

Later that month, Morgan spoke exclusively with PEOPLE about her relationship with Richards, and shut down dating rumors. “We’re friends,” she said at the time. “The internet’s a dumb place.”

In July, PEOPLE confirmed that Kyle and Mauricio had separated after 27 years of marriage. A source close to the estranged couple revealed that the pair "have been separated for a while now but are still living under the same roof. They remain amicable as they figure out what’s next for them and their family."

At the time, Kyle and Mauricio denied rumors they were getting divorced but admitted to having a “rough year” in a joint statement posted to Instagram.

Fans are getting to see part of that tough year play out on this season of RHOBH. In the midseason trailer for the reality show, Kyle confessed, "I want to feel happy and fulfilled. I don't know if Moe and I are going to make it."

On the other hand, Kyle seems to find comfort in Morgan amid her marital struggles. At one of her performances, Morgan declares, "I'm so grateful to have someone like Kyle in my life."
