Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky spent a lot of quality time together over the weekend despite going through a separation.
Hours before it was confirmed that the pair split after 27 years of marriage, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star shared a video on her Instagram Story of her going on a hike with her estranged husband in Aspen, Colo.
The two were solo at the time and Richards appeared to be in good spirits, joking, “Well, you said there would be people here.
“I like the bears to have options. I don’t like to be the only thing on the menu.”
Richards and Umansky’s bonding time may not come as too much of a surprise, though, as the source who revealed their breakup previously claimed the pair “remain amicable.”
“Kyle and Mauricio have been separated for a while now but are still living under the same roof,” the insider also told People Monday.

Richards further pushed the narrative that she and Umansky are on good terms by posting a photo of them and good pal Faye Resnick on her Instagram Story to give the latter a birthday shoutout.
“We love you,” the “Halloween Ends” star wrote over a selfie of the trio on Monday.
The popular blind items Instagram account Deumoi then shared a photo of Richards, 54, and Umansky, 53, out to dinner together on Monday evening, shortly after the split announcement.
According to a follower who submitted the snap, they were dining at a restaurant in Aspen and seemed to not have any other guests with them.
In the image, Richards’ elbows appeared propped up on the table as she seemingly looked off to the side, while Umansky stared straight in his estranged wife’s direction.
In a final effort to put on a united front, the Bravolebrity and real estate mogul released a joint statement to shut down claims that they are getting a divorce late Monday night.
“However, yes, we have had a rough year. The most challenging one of our marriage,” they admitted in a post both shared on their respective Instagram accounts. “But we both love and respect each other tremendously.”
Richards and Umansky then insisted, “There has been no wrongdoing on anyone’s part. Although we are in the public eye, we ask to be able to work through our issues privately.”
Fans of the former couple — including “Shahs of Sunset” alum Golnesa “GG” Gharachedaghi — have begun to speculate about what tore the marriage apart.
Several have put Richards’ budding friendship with country music singer Morgan Wade under a microscope, as the two have gotten a lot closer over the past year.
The reality star and “Wilder Days” musician, 28, have been spotted on trips together and even appear to have matching rings and matching heart tattoos.
However, there’s been no confirmation of cheating on either Richards’ or Umansky’s part.
The duo has been married since 1996 and they share three daughters: Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15.
Richards is also mom to Farrah Brittany, 34, whom she welcomed with her first husband, Guraish Aldjufrie.
