Kyle Richards is soaking up the sun in Lake Tahoe.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star shared highlights from the scenic trip in an Instagram carousel on Saturday, Aug. 24, starting with a snap of herself lying on a dock in a red bikini.

“Had such a peaceful vacation in beautiful Lake Tahoe 🙏,” Richards, 55, wrote. “Lake Tahoe is one of my favorite spots on earth.”

She added, “Spent our days cooking, making s’mores, playing pool, kayaking... Can’t wait to get back there 💙.”

The next  photos show Richards in a kayak, followed by a picture of a red-felt pool table. In two of the images, Richards poses with Riley and Tatum Shea, the daughters of her late best friend Lorene Shea, who died in 2022.

Richards concluded the carousel with another swimsuit shot, in which she reclines on the dock.

“You look amazing!!😍🔥🔥🔥,” commented Richards’ niece Paris Hilton, whose mom Kathy Hilton is her sister.

Eduardo Umansky, the father of Richards’ estranged husband, Mauricio Umansky, 54, wrote, “Love you Kyle,” to which Richards replied, “❤️ love you!”

The Bravo star’s post comes after the news that Mauricio’s reality series, Buying Beverly Hills, was canceled.

The show, which premiered in 2022, centered around Mauricio’s luxury Los Angeles real estate firm, The Agency. The couple’s daughter Alexia, 28, and Richards' daughter Farrah, 35, also starred on the show, and Kyle appeared on its second season, released in March 2024.

Sources told Deadline the reason for the cancellation was related to the viewing numbers versus the cost of production.

Richards and Mauricio, who announced their separation in July 2023, filmed season 2 of the show amid their split.

In March 2024, Mauricio told PEOPLE how he and Richards navigated their marital hardships on the real estate drama.

“There were definitely challenges,” he said. “It was happening, it was real life. We had the cameras on.”

He continued that he and Richards had a “choice” to “pretend that it wasn’t happening” while they were filming. However, he adds that, “I think that would’ve been awkward on television.”

“The reality is that we are going through our issues after being married for 28, 29 years. We did it and we chose to put it on camera and it was great, and now the audience gets to see the way that we interacted with each other.”

In one episode, news of their separation became public during a family trip to Aspen, and the couple remained lighthearted while addressing the situation with their kids. (The pair, who tied the knot in 1996, also share daughters Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16.)

“I’m getting that in the divorce," Umansky jokingly told Richards after she put on an apron. "That’s my apron. You can borrow it for now.”

"You can have it," she told him. "That's all you're getting."

Eventually, they brought up the topic with their daughters.

"We should talk about that now that we’re all here by the way. Because coming out of the blue what happened, it kind of blindsided all of us. I know it was a lot,” Richards said.

She added, "I really am sorry about that because it’s not fair to you guys. I’m just used to it."

Sophia said it was hard not to hear the news directly from them first.

"This time was different because everyone was reaching out. My phone was blowing up with people reaching out. I opened instagram and it was everywhere. It was definitely hard feeling like maybe I don’t know the whole story,” she said.

Last month, Richards made a change to her Instagram account, after Mauricio was photographed kissing a woman at the airport in Mykonos, Greece. The woman was later identified as actress Nikita Kahn.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that Richards removed the word “wife” from her bio, which currently reads, “Mom, actor, author, producer, animal lover, a RHOBH.”

While the Agency founder vacationed in Greece in July, Richards was spotted at the Minnesota Yacht Club music festival in St. Paul, Minn., with gal pal Morgan Wade.
