“Beautiful inside and out @badgalriri,” Richards, 54, wrote via Instagram on Friday, December 29. “Making new memories at @kemosabe1990.”

Richards, for her part, was joined by her three eldest daughters: Farrah, 35, Alexia, 27, and Sophia, 23. (Richards shares Farrah with ex-husband Guraish Aldjufrie and Alexia and Sophia with estranged husband Mauricio Umansky.)

Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky have nothing but love for their four daughters — even after separating in 2023.

“We still live in the same house and we spent [the holidays] together,” Richards exclusively told Us Weekly in her cover story, on newsstands now. “I have no idea how long we’ll be like that, but we are trying to be as normal as possible in a very un-normal situation.”
News broke in July that Richards and Umansky had separated after facing “the most difficult” year in their marriage.
“We love each other. We go to therapy. We both want to see each other happy,” Richards recently told Us. “I don’t know what the future looks like. That’s the hardest part because the unknown is scary.”
The “unknown” of 2023 reminded Richards of her inner strength, which she plans to take into the new year.
“I want things to be a little more quiet and I want to go into 2024 happy and at peace,” she added to Us, stressing that she wants to leave “negativity and any stress and pain I’ve been holding on to” in the past.
