Kyle Richards Falls for Morgan Wade in ‘Fall in Love With Me’ Music Video

YouTube/Morgan Wade Kyle Richards and Morgan Wade in the "Fall in Love With Me" music video.

Kyle Richards is a music video star.

“The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star, an actress since childhood, teamed up with her pal country singer Morgan Wade in August 2023 to star in the music video for Wade’s new single, “Fall in Love With Me.” Richards plays Wade’s love interest in the video.

The lyrics to the song have Wade, 28, singing about hitting up a “friend” who’s “scared of how it will end.” “But it’s fine, I don’t care/Wanna take off your clothes, wanna mess up your hair,” Wade sings. “Can’t you see I’m what you need? Make you hit your knees … Gonna make you fall in love with me.”

The music video dropped one month after Richards and her husband, Mauricio Umansky, confirmed they’ve hit a rocky patch in their 27-year marriage.

Fans Reacted to the ‘Fall in Love With Me’ Music Video

In the music video, Wade is seen unloading boxes from a moving truck as Richards peers at her through window blinds. As a sweaty Wade pours a water bottle over herself, Richards appears mesmerized. Next up, an infatuated Richards gets dolled up as she writes a perfumed-scented love note to her new neighbor. Next, there’s a shot of the two women taking a bubble bath together.

Richards later attracts Wade with a workout routine – she even works in one of her signature splits while wearing heels – then makes googly eyes at her outside before the singer crosses over to Richards’ yard and leans in for a kiss. Other footage shows the two women feeding each other strawberries and whipped cream.

Wade later wakes up – it’s all a dream – but Richards is at her door with flowers. As she shuts the door, Wade gives the camera a cheeky wink.

In a joint Instagram post with Richards, Wade described the video as “campy and fun – but also important and representative of all kinds of love, even in the country space, in any space.”

“@kylerichards18 and I trusted the process of making a piece of art that stands boldly beside this music and I’m proud of that….. Love is love is love,” she added.

Richards’ husband, Mauricio, was one of the first to comment on the clip, writing, “🔥🔥🔥 So good.”

Other commenters couldn’t help noticing the chemistry between Richards and Wade.

“That is natural chemistry. Not acting. Going to be really interesting to see how this all shakes out,” one fan wrote in the comments section of the official video on YouTube.

“I wouldn’t be mad if this relationship happened. Lol. They look good together & there’s obviously hella chemistry between them,” another agreed.

“Trolling at its very best or truly in love.. we may never know but I’m here for all of it!” another fan wrote.

Morgan Wade & Kyle Richards Said They Shot the Video in Response to Rumors About Their Relationship

One week before the “Fall in Love With Me” music video was released, Richards, 54, and Wade appeared in a teaser video that gave a behind-the-scenes look at how the project came about.

Wade also touched on rampant rumors about her and Richards being more than friends.  “If you get on the internet, you’ll see people are obsessed with us being friends,” she said of her friendship with the RHOBH star. “So, we kind of thought it would be a good idea to poke fun at that — kinda troll the trolls a little bit.”

Richards agreed, saying they wanted to give people “something to talk about.”

But while speaking with KISS-FM, Wade clarified that she wanted to make a music video about same-sex relationships. “We made this really sweet video, and it’s nice to be able to bring light to same-sex relationships in country music,” Wade said. “I’m not mad about that.”

Richards discussed making the music video while answering fan questions on her Amazon Live on August 10, 2023. “I was really nervous at first,” she admitted. “I talked to the director and I was like, ‘OK, you know what, I can do this, I can handle this. I like to push myself outside of my comfort zone.”

The Bravo star revealed that she had her glam squad fly out with her to Nashville to shoot the video. “I was a little nervous, but it was fun for the most part,” she said. “Actually, it was all fun. I got over the nerves it just took a minute.”

She also said she expects fans to have “a lot of questions” for her after they see the video, adding, “My family loved it. Mau loved it.”

In addition to the music video, Richards is working on another major project with Wade.

In July 2023, a source told TMZ that Richards traveled to Aspen to work on a documentary about Wade. Richards is reportedly an executive producer on the film, which will follow the singer’s rise to fame. Days after leaving Aspen, the RHOBH OG also followed Wade to her shows at Lollapalooza in Chicago.

Bravo superfan Heather McDonald weighed in on Richards’ interest in Wade. During an appearance on “Watch What Happens Live” on August 8, 2023, the “Juicy Scoop” host said,” I think [Kyle] was infatuated with Morgan and has a financial vested interest in her career. … I think she’s invested in her career to make her like the next Carrie Underwood.”
