“Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” personality Kyle Richards is addressing remarks said by singer and Bravo fan Rihanna.
While speaking to Hello! magazine for an April 12 article, Richards referenced that Rihanna stated that she thinks she and Wade “were a couple” in an April 9 Interview Magazine interview. The RHOBH personality said she believed the “Umbrella” singers comments were “pretty funny.” The reality television star, who is currently separated from her estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky, also suggested she no longer minds when others give their opinions about her personal life.
“In these last couple of years I feel like everything I do is talked about and now I’m sort of desensitized to the headlines,” said Richards. “I’ve seen so many lies, I’ve seen so many truths, I’ve seen things that are just shocking to see in writing, so now I’m just sort of desensitized. I think there’s probably nothing that I can read about myself that would shock me at this point.”
