Kyle Richards and Mauricious Umansky’s separation didn’t come as a surprise to Garcelle Beauvais.
The former “Real” co-host told “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” viewers Thursday that she and Sutton Stracke had been “suspicious” of the couple.
When Andy Cohen asked whether the duo’s “marriage [was] a topic of conversation” while filming Season 13 of “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” Beauvais replied, “Yes, for sure.”
The “NYPD Blue” alum, 56, noted that she has not physically spoken to Richards, 54, since news broke of her separation earlier this month, but they have texted.
“I sent her a text asking her if she was OK and she said, ‘I’m hanging in there,'” Beauvais recalled.
The model told Page Six the same on Tuesday at the New York City premiere of Netflix’s “Survival of the Thickest.”
The following day, Cohen teased clues of Richards and Umansky’s marital woes on the upcoming “RHOBH” season.
“I think when you watch the new season of ‘Beverly Hills,’ you’ll be less surprised [by the breakup],” the Bravo exec exclusively told us Wednesday.

Although filming for the series wrapped months ago, Page Six confirmed Monday that cameras picked back up to document the aftermath of the pair’s separation.
“This development has rocked the Bravo world,” a source told us. “Producers know fans want a glimpse into how Kyle and Mauricio came to this decision.”
Page Six confirmed the Bravolebrities’ split on July 3, hours before their joint social media statement admitting to a “challenging” year of marriage.
Amid rumors that Richards is in a romantic relationship with friend and country singer Mogran Wade, the statement noted that there was “no wrongdoing on anyone’s part” and no “salacious” secret behind their separation.
The next season of “RHOBH” will premiere in the fall. However, a date for Beauvais, Richards, Dorit Kemsley, Erika Jayne, Sutton Stracke, Crystal Kung Minkoff’s onscreen return — and newbie Annemarie Wiley’s debut — has yet to be revealed.
