They would have celebrated 30 years, but failed to keep up with each other. During a preview of the August 16 episode of Bravo’s 'Real Housewives Ultimate Girls Trip: Roaring 20th.'

Kyle Richards reveals heartbreaking text from ex Mauricio Umansky on their 30th anniversary

During a preview of the episode, an emotional Kyle Richards told Vicki Gunvalson, "I'm just having a moment." "Today's my 30-year anniversary. It makes me sad." The 56-year-old shared the mental condition she went through after separating from her estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky, with whom she broke up in 2023.

"He sent me a text and it just sent me off," Richards continued in the sneak peek. "He said today's always such a hard day and I love you. He said I don't know how we got here. I thought we were stronger than that. I really had thought that."

"My heart is breaking for Kyle," 'The Real Housewives of Orange County' said, "because they've got everything everyone is looking for and 30 years of marriage, all of a sudden it's dissolving."

"The thing that bothered me the most honestly was people saying that we gave them hope that true love existed," the Halloween Ends actress said. "And now, that went out the window for them. But I understand people thinking like that," she added.

When Richards mentioned that she is 'ashamed', the Coto founder shared some tough love towards Richards. "You should be," Vicki fired back, "you let your family down. You let your kids down. You're showing them it's okay to bail out when things get tough. It's not okay."

But Gunvalson's lecture didn't end there. "For me, you guys were the epitome of staying together forever," the RHOC star continued. "You're supposed to grow old together, you're supposed to do life together."
