Richards and Umansky revealed that they were separating after 27 years of marriage in July, but the real estate mogul, 53, insisted Wednesday that they are ‘not throwing in the towel’ just yet.

Wade made a first-time appearance in the RHOBH trailer amid rumors that she and Richards are more than ‘just friends.’
