Kyle Richards is feeling the flames from her latest hot seat conversation with Andy Cohen.

During part two of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills season 14 reunion special, the reality star, 56, defended her decision to keep quiet about her relationship with Morgan Wade, after their friendship fueled rumors of a potential romance.

While explaining why she no longer publicly discusses their friendship, Kyle admitted she felt “guilty” for bringing Morgan into the spotlight, claiming that the attention has caused her “anxiety, and she doesn’t want to be a part of that.”

When Andy pointed out that Morgan was a country music artist who “has music out and performs publicly,” Kyle added that the attention she’s received from the Bravo fandom is a “very different vibe.”

“With singing and performing comes speculation about your life,” Andy continued. “You know, you put music videos out there. She’s also experienced, I would think, greater publicity and greater attraction and interest as a result of this.”

Kyle maintained that everybody has “different perspectives” about the situation with Dorit Kemsley noting how Morgan became a “household name” and Andy adding that she even did a feature with The New York Times.

He also confronted Kyle about appearing in Morgan’s music video for her song “Fall in Love with Me,” in which the two portrayed neighbors who fall in love, despite asking the public to stop speculating about their relationship.

In the video, the pair can be seen feeding each other fruit, taking bubble baths together and nearly kissing before the cameras cut to black.

“I do just want to point out, putting out a music video that is like the two of you as lovers,” Andy said. “It contributed so mightily to a conversation that was already a runaway train, and that was totally in her hands, I have to say.”

“It’s like, at some point, y

you can’t have your cake and eat it too,” he added. “I mean, sorry.”

Rumors of Kyle’s romance with Morgan came shortly after the former announced her separation from her husband, Mauricio Umansky, after 27 years of marriage in July 2023.

The two first became friends after connecting on social media and since then, they’ve spent a lot of time together from joint workouts to vacations with other Housewives stars. In a previous episode of RHOBH, Kyle permanently commemorated their relationship by tattooing her first initial onto Morgan.

During an Amazon Live session in January 2024, Kyle admitted she carried regrets about the attention she’s brought to the country singer.

“She’s an artist, you know? She just wants to make music and all of a sudden she was thrust into this like, world of gossip and tabloids and traveling and having paparazzi take pictures of her,” she explained at the time. “She just doesn’t like any of that.”
