Kyle Richards’ estranged husband Mauricio Umansky looked relaxed as he enjoyed dinner with an old friend in Beverly Hills on Monday.
The 53-year-old reality star, who has denied dating his Dancing with the Stars partner Emma Slater, was spotted with Paul “PK” Kemsley, 56, as he left Il Pastaio.
PK also addressed rumors of problems with his own marriage to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills cast member Dorit Kemsley, 47.
Mauricio was dressed like he came straight from a DWTS rehearsal to dinner.
The Dealmaker author wore a loose-fitting white tank top over navy sweatpants. For some warmth in the chilly nighttime temperatures, he donned a black leather jacket and completed his attire with a pair of gray sneakers.

The entrepreneur-turned-entertainer has been preparing for Tuesday night’s appearance on DWTS.
He and the other participants will perform their interpretations of Argentine tango.
Since Mauricio announced his separation from his wife Richards, 54, he has had to deal with rumors that he and his dance partner Slater, 34, were more than just friends.
It started after the two were spotted holding hands after a dinner together in Beverly Hills.
However, both he and Emma insist that they are just good friends.

“To be clear, we are not dating. “We’re really good friends, we’ve been dancing together for six weeks now, four hours a day, every day,” Mauricio said in a post on Emma’s Instagram.
“Guys, it’s intense,” the choreographer added.
“For example, you guys have a really, really special bond and I think we have similar personalities so we have great support… we’re definitely there for each other. ‘It’s beautiful, that’s a great thing!’
Mauricio insisted the whole thing was exaggerated as he explained what happened: “We’re really good friends, and just to be clear, we went to a restaurant straight after the rehearsal to get sushi, we were wearing ours Rehearsal clothing.” “A lot of the stories are wrong, a lot of them.”

Hurt: During a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Kyle admitted she was “stunned” by the photos that showed her ex and Emma holding hands after 27 years of marriage. “I love him very much and we are friendly, but this really hurt me.”
Mauricio and Kyle still live under the same roof, and the Halloween Ends actress has addressed her own rumors about an alleged romance with boyfriend Morgan Wade.
Both Kyle and the country singer have denied there is any romance between them for several months.
During a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Kyle admitted that she was “stunned” by the photos that showed her ex and Emma holding hands.
“I don’t know if anything has happened yet, but obviously something has,” Kyle said. “Listen, I love him very much and we are friendly, but this really hurt me.”
Kyle admitted that the photos were the reason she deleted her Instagram post supporting them.
“But I also voted for her,” Kyle said.
