Kyle Richards has been candid about her stunning physique. She claims to be in the best shape of her life, following her decision to part ways with her husband, Mauricio Umansky.
The 54-year-old original cast member of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” shared her fitness journey with Us Weekly. She revealed that her perspective on working out has evolved. No longer is it about shedding pounds.
Now, it’s about her. First and foremost, it’s about her mental health. The fact that it makes her look good is just a cherry on top.
She reminisced about her younger years in her 20s and 30s. She looks better now, even after having four kids. It’s a testament that it’s never too late to start.
When asked about the turning point in her life, Richards remembered a trip she took in 2022. It was a trip that sparked her desire for a healthier lifestyle.
She had a breast reduction that year. She couldn’t work out for eight weeks. During that time, she was vacationing in Europe, indulging in pasta, wine, and cocktails.
By the end of the trip, she didn’t recognize herself. She had also just lost her best friend to suicide. She wasn’t taking care of herself.
It was making her feel more depressed. So, she decided to make a change. No more bad carbs, no sugar, no pasta, no bread, no alcohol. She committed to working out every day.
The mother of four, who has always denied using weight-loss drugs, started seeing results pretty quickly. Even though she wasn’t a heavy drinker, cutting out alcohol made a significant difference in her skin and overall wellbeing.
She’s always been active, but her routine was monotonous. She used to go on hikes and spin. She started incorporating weights, hot yoga, running. Especially during tough times, it helped clear her head.
In the interview, Richards clarified that her new body isn’t a revenge body. It’s an I-feel-good body.
Page Six confirmed in July that Richards and Umansky, who got married in January 1996, decided to separate. The popular couple has three daughters together: Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15.
Umansky also helped raise Farrah Brittany, 34, whom Richards had from her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie.
