Kyle Richards attended the taping of the ABC competition series' Dancing With the Stars debut to show her support for Mauricio Umansky. Umansky's sister, Sharon Umansky Benton, shared an Instagram Story pic of Richards, 54, along with the caption "Family supporting family!!!"
In the sweet photo, Richards poses with her four daughters - Farrah, 34, Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15. Richards and Umansky, who is 53 years old, share Alexia, Sophia, and Portia. Umansky shares a close relationship with Farrah, who is Richards' stepdaughter from her previous marriage to Guraish Aldjufrie.
Along with showing support for Umansky during his Dancing with the Stars performance, Richards urged her fans to vote for him and his partner, Emma Slater. She shared a photo of the duo on Instagram and included instructions on how to vote, emphasizing that fans can vote up to 20 times.
Umansky and Slater, both 34 years old, received a score of 15 out of 30 for their jive performance to OneRepublic's "I Ain't Worried," which was one of the lowest scores of the night. Despite this, they will continue competing as actor Matt Walsh and his partner, Koko Iwasaki, were the first to be eliminated.
Richards and Umansky's relationship has been making headlines for months, with speculation about their troubles. In his introduction, Richards briefly mentioned their difficult year, expressing hope that Dancing With the Stars would provide a distraction and an opportunity to have some fun.

His words echoed the partnered announcement they made on Instagram in July, in which they expressed, "Our journey this year has been arduous, marking the most trying period in our marriage. However, our love and deep admiration for one another remain steadfast. No one is to blame for the challenges we have confronted."
Richards and Umansky have made numerous joint public appearances, including celebrating the Fourth of July and going on a vacation in Italy last month. Erika Jayne, Richards' co-star on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, and executive producer Andy Cohen have also confirmed that the breakup of the estranged exes will be discussed in season 13 of the show. Although they recently spent time apart when Richards was in Paris with Morgan Wade, Umansky had previously revealed that his family, including Richards, has been his biggest source of support since joining DWTS.
