Kyle Richards has shared her side of the story concerning the ‘lesbian’ rift with fellow Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Garcelle Beauvais.
The brouhaha began when Beauvais 58, doubled down on her advice for Richards, 56.
She wanted Kyle to admit that she has been dating singer Morgan Wade, 30, after separating from husband Mauricio Umansky, 54.
‘We’ve talked about it since then, it is what it is,’ Kyle said when approached by TMZ reporters while in Los Angeles.
‘We’re good now, so it’s fine,’ she added.
The Wilder Days singer has not publicly identified her sexuality, but is an advocate for the LGBTQ+ community.
Richards appeared in Wade’s video for Fall in Love with Me, which was released in August 2023.
Kyle Richards, 56, has shared her side over the ‘lesbian’ rift with fellow RHOBH star Garcelle Beauvais, 58. ‘We’ve talked about it since then, it is what it is,’ the reality star said when approached by TMZ reporters. ‘We’re good now, so it’s fine’
In the story, the two played neighbors who began writing each other love letters, and nearly share a steamy kiss.
Richards laughed off Beauvais’ suggestion on the show, but on the after show she went after her castmate for deliberately trying to create drama.
Kyle said: ‘What was really going through my head was, “You’re being an ass**** right now and don’t try to act like oopsie-daisies. You know exactly what you’re doing.”‘
Richards has maintained all along that she and Wade are friends, and nothing more.
After a break over the holidays, part two of RHOBH season 14 began airing on January 7 and in a trailer shared by Richards on social media, showcased some of the drama to come.
‘Coming up this season on #rhobh,’ The Holiday Exchange actress wrote next to the post.
‘Love you Queen. I’m dying laughing at their failed “Kyle Takedown,’ wrote an avid fan.
‘Always team Kyle!!,’ exclaimed another.
In an episode of the show, Beauvais suggested Richards come out of the closet regarding her friendship with singer Morgan Wade. In a confession in the After Show Richards said said Beauvais was being an ‘a-hole. You know exactly what you’re doing’
Morgan Wade, 30, has never said anything publicly about her sexuality. The rumors began after Richards starred in the singer’s Fall in Love with Me video, which included a same-sex love story (Pictured in Los Angeles in April 2023)
The rift between Richards and Beauvais happened about the same time the reality star was separating from Mauricio Umansky, her husband of 27 years (Pictured in Beverly Hills In April 2023)
Richards, who is one of the original Beverly Hills stars, said she never expected to be separated from her husband on 27 years.
‘I’ve always said I didn’t believe in the “reality show curse” because my perception was that a lot of people come into this with fractures in their marriage and then they are looking at this as a way out,’ she told The Hollywood Reporter earlier this month.
‘That certainly was not my story. I don’t know if it speaks to where we are in 2025, but for me, I definitely do believe that money and fame and all that is not great for a marriage. I don’t think it is.’
‘Years ago, when we didn’t have any money, I would say, “Well that’s OK, we can move to Vail and you can be a ski teacher. And I can be with the kids and bake cookies.” I think if that happened for our path in life, my guess is we would not be in this situation right now.’
In a recent interview, Kyle Richards finally opened up about the rumored ‘lesbian’ rift between her and fellow Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Garcelle Beauvais. The tension between the two women has been a hot topic among fans of the show, with many speculating about the cause of their falling out.
During the interview, Kyle addressed the rumors head on, stating that there is no truth to the speculation that their feud is rooted in Garcelle calling her a lesbian. Kyle emphasized that she has no issue with anyone’s sexual orientation and that she supports LGBTQ rights wholeheartedly.
Kyle also expressed her disappointment in how the situation has been blown out of proportion and how hurtful it is to have false rumors spread about her. She stressed that her relationship with Garcelle is complicated, but she is willing to work through their issues and move forward.
It’s clear that Kyle is eager to put the rumors to rest and mend her relationship with Garcelle. Hopefully, this open and honest conversation will help to bring about a resolution between the two Real Housewives stars.
