Emma Slater and Mauricio Umansky seem to be taking their friendship to the next level.

While photos obtained by another news outlet showed the pair after the night wrapped, an eyewitness told the publication the two were kissing when they sat next to each other inside the venue. The pair stayed there for about three hours before leaving, and as they made their way to the car, the choreographer, 34, had her arms around the real estate agent's waist.

Slater is the first woman Umansky, 53, has been linked to since he and estranged wife Kyle Richards, 54, revealed their separation this summer.

The professional dancer married Sasha Farber, 39, in 2018, but they separated last year. This February, she filed for divorce.

As OK! previously shared, the RHOBH couple acknowledged in a joint statement that they were enduring a "rough year," though at the time, they claimed rumors about them "divorcing" were "untrue."

They also said whispers about infidelity were false on both sides.

Soon enough, the Halloween actress began sparking romance rumors with country singer Morgan Wade, 28, and though she even starred as her love interest in the musician's recent music video, they've yet to confirm if they're more than friends.

Nonetheless, Umansky said that while he and Richards are "officially separated," the pair is "not throwing in the towel."

"We're fighting for this. We've been married for 27 years," he declared to a reporter. "Kyle is my best friend, she's an amazing human, I love her... And marriages go through difficult times, sometimes, and that's what we're dealing with right now."

He also confirmed that the duo's struggles will be on full display in the new season of RHBOH, which premieres on Wednesday, October 25.

"You're gonna see our relationship kind of leading into the difficult parts of the relationship, there's no question about all that," he said. "But it's gonna be a really fun, entertaining season for people who like to watch drama — there's gonna be a lot of drama, that's for sure."

In the trailer for Season 13, the estranged couple sat down with their girls, Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie, 34, Alexia Umansky, 27, Sophia Umansky, 23, and Portia Umansky, 15, to tell them about how they would be taking time apart.

"We are a very strong family, and we always will be," the matriarch told their teary-eyed children. "Always will be. Nothing can change that."
