Kyle Richards emerged in Los Angeles on Wednesday — one day after her ex Mauricio Umansky's 'cruel' act towards her was exposed on national television.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 55, was spotted stocking up on holiday decor at a Home Depot store ahead of Thanksgiving.
She browsed the aisles alone as she picked up several Christmas items and placed them in her cart.
Richards purchased an adorable standing Santa Claus figurine, several boxes of ornaments, two Christmas trees and a gorgeous wreath.
Putting on a brave face, she loaded up the trunk of her SUV with her Christmas haul before heading to her next stop.
For her shopping trip, the mother-of-four kept it casual in blue leggings and a gray pullover sweatshirt.

She had sunglasses over her hazel eyes and she kept her long, brunette hair up in a ponytail.
Richard's outing comes after a devastating detail regarding her and Umansky's contentious split surfaced on this week's Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.
She was married to Umansky, 54 from 1996 until their split in 2023, though they still share a home together. They are parents to three daughters: Alexia, 28, Sophia, 24, and Portia, 16.
A number of her castmates - Sutton Stracke, Kathy Hilton and Erika Jayne - decided to surprise Richards since she was feeling down, after telling Stracke a bizarre story.
Sutton relayed the story Kyle told her to Erika and Kathy, revealing that Umansky swapped out a photo of him and Kyle with a photo of him and his Dancing With the Stars partner from Season 32, Emma Slater.
The housewives were stunned by this story, and so were fans, who wasted no time in taking to social media to bash Umansky.
Umansky and Slater got people talking in October 2023 after they were spotted holding hands following dinner, but they both subsequently insisted they were not dating and just friends.
Both Erika and Kathy were stunned, with Erika responding, 'What?' and Kathy asking, 'Are you serious?'
Stracke added in confession, 'I mean, at that point, for me, I'm like, bye. Bye, Mauricio. But I don't think Kyle did that. I think she just kind of was hurt and still hopeful. Hurt and hopeful.'

Erika added 'Well, that isn't right,' while Kathy said, 'It would be one thing taking it down. But then to put that up? Come on.'
Erika added in confession, 'Why are you replacing a picture of your wife with your Dancing With the Stars partner? All that's gonna do is make people talk more. It doesn't help, it actually hurts.'
She added in confession, 'Then again, Tom had a picture of you know, who he was f***ing underneath his desk, and there she was.'
Fans were just as livid as the housewives, with @JustChanning stating, 'I know Kathy couldn't wait to go home and Rick about Mauricio replacing that picture. The way she turned from Sutton after she said it.'
@its1stclassCam added, 'MAURICIO DID WHAT?! the picture thing is so f***ed up. He is so petty. If I was Kyle that would be the straw that broke the camel's back.'
@9woodMac said, 'Wait, Kyle got a tattoo of Morgan's initials on her body but has a problem with Mauricio changing out their picture together with his side chick dance partner?'
@sammymaulik added, 'Also Mauricio, replacing his wife's picture with his #DWTS #DWTSFinale partner, is an all time low. Kyle look out, because I think something is coming out of left field next.'
@theb***halbum said, 'Replacing a photo with you & your wife with you & your dWTS partner is crazy.'

Before her friends' arrival, Kyle admitted in confession that she's, 'still adjusting to having a lot quieter of a home.'
'I'm so not used to that. I just get... Maybe scared. Like, what if it's always like this?' Kyle admitted in confession.
She was pleasantly surprised when her friends arrived, disguising themselves at the gate as an Amazon delivery driver.
