By Allison Crist

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' latest "dinner party from hell" may have kicked off during Season 13, Episode 6, but Kyle Richards was still reeling from the gathering on Dec. 13's Episode 8.

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills on Bravo Tuesdays at 8/7c and next day on Peacock. Catch up on the Bravo App.

The Beverly Hills OG was, as she explained to her husband Mauricio Umansky, particularly upset with Sutton Stracke as she had accused Kyle of not being open about her marriage. As the dinner went on, Sutton and Garcelle Beauvais also suggested that Kyle wasn't wearing her wedding ring, but rather a ring that served as a "make-up band." Essentially, the two were suggesting that Mauricio had cheated.

Kyle explained all of this to her husband on RHOBH. To see how he responded and get more details on the cheating rumors, keep reading.

Mauricio Umansky's Reaction to Rumors He Cheated on Kyle Richards

Opening up about what happened, Kyle told Mauricio, "I don't even know how this whole thing started. There's been a lot of rumors on the internet. So, I'm talking to Sutton and she kept pushing like there was something I was being secretive about. Everybody at the f-cking table obviously thinks something now."

Mauricio responded by asking Kyle if she told Sutton to "f-ck off" like she "clearly" should have. When Kyle said "no," he fired back, "Why wouldn't you? I think that's f-cking mean. That just causes more problems, more rumors, more bullsh-t. "

Kyle didn't disagree, simply adding in a confessional interview, "Why would anyone be attacking anyone about their marriage? I shouldn't be surprised, but I am."

Kyle Richards and Morgan Wade Discuss the Mauricio Cheating Rumors

Later, Kyle ruminated about the situation with her friend Morgan Wade. The two were on FaceTime, and after poking fun at one another — something Kyle said makes their relationship "very different" than the ones she has with her "other friends" — Kyle filled her in on the "make-up gift" conversation. What's more, she pointed out that she planned to wear a new necklace to Sutton's party. 

"I'm wearing this tonight, so who knows what rumor this will start," Kyle joked. "I mean, maybe [Mauricio] has a whole family in another country. Maybe I do. Who knows? I don't know."

The Cheating Rumors About Mauricio Umansky and Kyle Richards, Explained

In case you need a refresher, the cheating rumors surfaced once Garcelle said of Kyle's new ring, "I thought it was a make-up band. When your husband messes up and you get a gift. They buy you something to forget what they did.”

Kyle, for her part, was shocked at the insinuation. “That's the f-cking rumor?” Kyle responded. “It wasn't a gift from Mauricio … That's such a weird thing to say. Guess what, I buy things myself.”

Turning to Sutton, Kyle added, “So what you’re saying is my husband cheated on me?”

Sutton replied, “Did I say that?” which in turn prompted Kyle to explain why this line of questioning was so upsetting to her: “I said at the retreat, this hasn't been our best year being married. We've had a hard time. I have not had a great year and I shared this at the retreat, so it feels like a low blow.”

“Is that not enough for you guys? Do you want more? Do you want my husband to have cheated and bought me that band that he did not buy me?” Kyle continued. “Because he didn't. He did not buy that for me. I bought it myself.”
