Cynthia Bailey has given her two cents on Kyle Richards’ separation from her husband Mauricio Umansky.
“The Real Housewives of Atlanta” alum offered up some sound marriage advice to her “Ultimate Girls Trip” co-star who announced that she and The Agency founder are taking some time apart.
“I adore Kyle. I adore Mauricio. I think that they have, from what I can tell, an amazing relationship, a beautiful family,” Bailey told E! News.
“I always root for people to work it out. But I feel like at the end of the day, whatever’s going to make them both happy is what I support.”
“I just think, at the end of the day, if it doesn’t bring you peace and happiness, then you guys should really have that real conversation and go from there,” the reality star, 56, added.
Page Six confirmed on July 3 that the fan-favorite couple, who tied the knot in January 1996, decided to separate after 27 years of marriage.
The couple admitted to a “challenging” year in a joint Instagram statement, writing, “We both love and respect each other tremendously. … There has been no wrongdoing on anyone’s part.”
The news came as a shock to fans and celebs alike, including Bailey.
“I’m the kind of person, when people are going through things, I kind of try to respect their space,” she told the outlet. “And when I see [Kyle] it’s like, ‘Hey, I’m here for you, whenever you need me.’”
No matter the outcome, Bailey said that Richards is “going to be fine.”
Shortly after news of their separation came to light, Richards and Umansky released a joint statement clarifying that any reports of them “divorcing are untrue.”
“However, yes, we have had a rough year. The most challenging one of our marriage,” the couple added.

The Bravolebrities share three daughters together: Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15. Umansky also helped raise Farrah Brittany, 34, whom Richards welcomed in her first marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie.
Page Six confirmed that Bravo has resumed filming Season 13 of “RHOBH” after news of the bombshell separation broke.
“This development has rocked the Bravo world,” an insider told us last month. “Producers know fans want a glimpse into how Kyle and Mauricio came to this decision.”
