Kyle—who also shares daughters Farrah, 34, Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, with the real estate mogul—went on to admit she’s open to dating a woman, despite previously denying romance rumors surrounding her and BFF Morgan Wade.
The Bravolebrity and country singer fueled speculation about the nature of their friendship during Kyle’s celebration of life for her late friend Lorene Shea, which Mauricio didn’t attend. The two shared a special moment when Kyle felt nervous to give a speech and Morgan was by her side to lift her spirits.
As for Kyle’s new lease on life, she explained Lorene’s suicide was a catalyst for her recent personal transformation.
“Since Lorene died, I just think life is too short,” she said in a confessional. “I’m really just trying to be happy and live my life. I don’t want to have a wasted day of not feeling good or spending time with people I don’t want to spend my time with or people that don’t appreciate me.”
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. on Bravo.
