While Kyle went on to note she couldn't confirm if there really is a budding romance between the pair, she did share her perspective.
"I don't know if anything has happened yet," she noted, "But obviously there's something there and listen, I love him very much—and we are amicable—but that really did hurt me."

E! News has reached out to Mauricio's rep for comment and has not heard back.
The Halloween Ends actress also opened up about initiating the separation, confirming that despite their current state, they are still living under the same roof.
"It originated from me," Kyle—who shares kids Farrah, 34, Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15, with the Buying Beverly Hills star—told host Andy Cohen. "When the news first came out, it was really, really devastating for the whole family. Our phones were blowing up. My kids were just crying, wouldn't leave the house. It was really, really difficult."
But now, their children are in a much better place.
"They're really strong," Kyle explained. "They're just so together and so smart. And they've been my best, best, best friends and I could not be more proud of them. They're amazing human beings. Thank God I have them through this."
