Is the drama all manufactured?

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills’ Season 13 will feature an intriguing narrative thanks to Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky, according to a recent source.

According to the insider, the brunette beauty was only looking for a delicious plot to keep her place on the Bravo series. “If you know Kyle, you know that she just wanted a juicy storyline to save her spot on the Bravo series,” the source said. “She is skilled at what she does.”

If the charges made by the insider are true, the couple’s deception appears to have succeeded because the separation drama was featured prominently in the new RHOBH trailer. As OK! previously reported, the teaser for the show placed a lot of emphasis on the couple’s alleged breakup and featured a scene in which Richards sobbed over her broken marriage.

“Complete strangers are like, ‘You made us believe in true love, and now it’s all…'” the mother-of-four sobbed to friend Erika Jayne before the pal chimed in, “This is true love. There are only two people in this marriage. Everybody else’s opinion can f— off.”

The clip then cut to costar Sutton Stracke in her confessional, stating, “Every time I go online, I see something about someone cheating. Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Kyle’s not wearing a wedding band.”

The preview also features Richards’ rumored girlfriend country singer Morgan Wade. Dorit Kemsley shared her suspicions too, asking Richards about her tattoo of Wade’s initials.

“You put the first letter of your name on her body?” she said while looking shocked.

Before sitting down with daughters Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie, 34, Alexia Umansky, 27, and Sophia Umansky, 23, to break the news about their split, the real estate mogul told Richards, “I’m just glad it’s you that’s out there having an affair.”

“We are a very strong family, and we always will be,” the matriarch told her kids. “Always will be. Nothing can change that.”

The current Dancing With the Stars competitor recently discussed his marital difficulties in an interview.

“You know, we’re hanging in there, we’re working through all of our things, which everybody knows about, and we’re just taking it day by day,” Umansky said. “We’re trying not to be influenced by the media, social media, or anything else that’s going on. Therefore, we are attempting to disregard it and determine that for ourselves.

“I can tell you we are both happy,” he added.

Richards opened up about how painful the separation has been for her during a recent Amazon Live discussion.

She responded when asked how she was, “That’s a really loaded question. You understand that doing this has been really difficult given how many people are watching us and how well-known we are.

“Obviously we care about each other a lot,” she said of her husband of 27 years.
