Kyle Richards models snakeskin jacket and jeans on lunch date with Morgan Wade... amid claims RHOBH producers 'gave her an ultimatum' to reveal true relationship with country star

'The producers feel that Kyle has said all she can say about her split from Mauricio [Umansky] and now it is time to tell the truth about her dating Morgan,' said the insider.

'Kyle has beat around the bush a ton on Morgan and it is getting old. It is time for her to finally admit that it is more than a friendship.' 

Kyle has been a staple cast member of the hit Bravo series since its inaugural season in 2010, making her the longest-running member of the cast.

The insider report comes after Kyle denied the rumors that she's no longer speaking to the country star. 

'She's great. She's good, and we're good,' she explained during an appearance on The Bitch Bible podcast on May 14.

'And she's on tour right now and just on the road and busy busy. I'm here in LA,' she added.

Kyle and Morgan have been romantically linked since the reality star announced her separation from Mauricio back in July 2023.

Those dating rumors hit an all-time high back in August after Kyle joined Morgan in her music video for her single Fall In Love With Me that month, which featured the two women pining for each other and climaxed with a passionate kiss between the two.

Kyle has been linked to singer Morgan (pictured in September 2022) for several months now 

However, the musician previously admitted that she and Kyle were just trying to 'troll the trolls' with the video.

On the Bitch Bible podcast, Kyle also got candid about returning home to find her estranged husband had finally moved out nearly a year after announcing their split. 

'That was weird,' the star admitted. 'I always knew when that day came it would feel strange, very real. I'm a mom of four, I have a busy household.'

The actress — who shares daughters Farrah, 35, Alexia, 27, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16, with Mauricio — admitted to being shocked by his absence initially. 

'I'm used to having a lot of chaos and stuff going on in my house,' she continued. 'The day that he moved out was just strange because I came home and I'm like, "Everything's so quiet. Where is everybody?"

'It just sort of dawned on me because I had been away. He did this while I was out of town, which is the smart thing to do.' 

Kyle also slammed the speculation that her recent split is simply an attempt to keep her 'relevant' and the ratings up on her show The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, which she's been a part of since its inception in 2010.

During an appearance on the podcast Bravo's Hot Mic, Kyle told host and RHOBH producer Alex Baskin, 'What human being would create a story like this... who would do that for ratings? Put their family through this. That is one of the dumbest things I've maybe ever heard in these 13 years.'

'I'm going to pretend that I'm separated and torture my children so that people tune in?' Kyle continued on the podcast. 'I mean, it's just the dumbest thing I've ever heard. And when people talk about, 'oh, they do these things to be relevant'... I mean, I'm already on the show 13 years.'

Kyle also took aim at the rumors that the estranged duo have an 'open marriage' and that she's only staying with Mauricio for his real estate mogul money.

'I also hear a lot of things online like 'well, Kyle and Maurice they have an open marriage' and that 'Kyle's only with him for the money'... He had no money when I married him, you idiots!,' Kyle insisted.

'"Oh, she just stays there and puts up with all this so that she can keep spending his money"' Kyle continued. 'First of all, it's our money that he didn't have before. But yeah, definitely not, I would not do any of that.'

Kyle's clap back comes as the pair's separation continues to raise eyebrows, as they are reportedly not seeking couples' therapy to work it out.

The estranged duo — who have 'yet to consult lawyers' after their July split — are seeking individual therapy during the difficult period, but are not engaging in any form of 'marriage counseling or couple's therapy,' according to TMZ. 

'They just want space to explore individually,' the outlet's source added.

Although there's no information on an official divorce, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills stars are reportedly keeping a reconciliation on the table.
