The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 56, is sharing an update on her dating life with PEOPLE, over two years after her split from ex Mauricio Umansky.
While attending the Anastasia Soare and Oprah Winfrey in Conversation event in Los Angeles at Raising Brows LIVE on Oct. 23, Richards shared that she’s in no rush to settle down.
“Right now, I’m just enjoying being by myself and with my girls and traveling and enjoying the time I have off from shooting,” Richards said of her four daughters. “I just had a girls’ weekend in Nashville. We had the best time. It’s like all the fall vibes. And I’m good.”

After being asked if she hopes to settle down again, Richards said she “of course” does. “I hope to get married again one day. I mean, listen, I’m someone who really enjoys being married. So I won’t be single my whole life,” she adds.
Richards and Umansky, who separated in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage, share daughters Alexia, 29, Sophia, 25, and 21-year-old Portia. She’s also mom to 36-year-old Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie, who she welcomed in 1988 with ex Guraish Aldjufrie.
Since the split, Richards sparked romance rumors with musician Morgan Wade after appearing in her music video for the song “Fall in Love with Me,” but has opted to remain quiet about their friendship on RHOBH. During the show’s season 14 reunion special, Richards revealed she felt “guilty” for bringing Morgan into the spotlight, adding that the attention caused her “anxiety, and she doesn’t want to be a part of that.”
Speaking with PEOPLE back in April, Richards opened up about her co-parenting dynamic with her estranged husband these days, revealing that she and Umansky “get along really well” and simply “want the best for each other.”
“Mauricio and I get along really well. You know, we both want the best for each other,” she told PEOPLE. “We love our daughters. So we were very good friends. I have his back. He has mine.”
When asked about the secret to managing such a relationship, Richards said, “I think we’re just really good friends, and we always have been, so that came in handy. That’s one good thing out of that.”
Richards also caught up with PEOPLE after the season 13 reunion of RHOBH where she revealed she was questioning her sexuality. As she explained, she “took that opportunity” to speak with her daughters about her feelings.
“For me as a mom, I want my kids to always be able to come to me with the hard conversations and know that they’re going to be loved and accepted no matter what — and they are my best friends,” she said.
Richards added, “I wanted to share that with them out of respect for them… The reaction I was met with just blew me away with all four of my daughters, and I felt so loved and so supported.”
