Former Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Lisa Vanderpump said she and her ex-best friend Kyle Richards are busy living their own lives and have no interest in rekindling their friendship.
The Bravolebrity revealed she hasn't spoken to Richards when asked about the reality star's separation from Mauricio Umansky, RadarOnline.com has learned.
"I think that ship has sailed," Vanderpump shared on Thursday's episode of Today with Hoda and Jenna. "I think she knows how I feel. I've been very honest about that."
As we previously reported, the two had a falling out after Vanderpump denied leaking information and being behind a negative story about her co-star Dorit Kemsley.
She confirmed her bond with Richards remains estranged while noting there is no bad blood between the two.
The pair confirmed their separation after 27 years of marriage.
"Now, I have seen Mauricio," Vanderpump shared with the ladies. "I saw him at Dancing With the Stars, so I kicked him in the a--."
"I felt very sad for her because I know Kyle really held her marriage very close and near," she said. "It was very, very important to her, and she always kinda gave the impression of everything being perfect whether it was or it wasn't. I think it's a shame, I really do. I hope they find their way back to each other."
Richards and Umansky exchanged their vows in January 1997 and share three daughters together.
"Now, I have seen Mauricio," Vanderpump shared with the ladies. "I saw him at Dancing With the Stars, so I kicked him in the a--."
Richards previously expressed her gratitude after Vanderpump showed her support at BravoCon 2023. "I really appreciated her words. That was very, very kind of her."
"Lisa also has a long marriage and a successful marriage," Richards said of her former pal who married Ken Todd in 1982.
Richards more recently confirmed that she and Umansky are taking things one "day at a time" and still are cohabiting after they called it quits for now following 27 years of marriage.
Kyle still had her ex's back, defending him before shutting down the topic altogether.
