Kyle Richards and Morgan Wade are still friends despite singer’s Instagram purge: report

Morgan Wade and Kyle Richards are reportedly still besties.

The country singer worried fans when they discovered Tuesday she had scrubbed every last image of the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star from her Instagram feed.

However, according to TMZ, the move was a strategic one.

An insider told the outlet Wednesday that Wade, 29, purged the photos from her social media because she’s preparing to release new music.

The only two posts remaining on her account include an announcement for her 2024 Crossing State Lines Tour and a promotion for Alanis Morissette’s Triple Moon Tour, on which she will serve as a special guest.

Meanwhile, Richards, 55, also deleted almost every trace of Wade from her feed.

The only evidence of their friendship is a series of snapshots posted in August 2023 after she traveled to Aspen, Colo., to watch Wade perform live.

An eyewitness told Page Six at the time that Wade and Richards engaged in “playful touching” throughout their morning outing and were “constantly leaning in toward one another, even when not speaking.”

The romance speculation only got more intense when a clip of Richards tattooing the Aussie musician with her initial was included in the “RHOBH” Season 13 trailer.

The “Halloween Ends” actress, however, has repeatedly pushed back on the dating rumors.

At one point, she described Wade as “one of [her] best, best friends in the world.”

The dating speculation coincided with Richards’ separation from Mauricio Umansky after 27 years of marriage, which they confirmed in September.
