She shot to fame as a Real Housewife Of Orange County.

She added a few mountain touches to the ensemble, slipping into a pair of fur-covered boots and popping on a cowboy hat.

Kelly warded off the wintertime chill in the popular ski town by throwing a black fringed shawl over her thick turtleneck.

The reality TV sensation played up her knockout legs in a pair of skintight jeans, slipping on a pair of gloves before heading out into the cold.

She has been joined on her holiday by her third and current husband Rick Leventhal, a smoldering 60-year-old Fox News personality.

Kelly’s first husband was a lawyer named Scott Silva, and she was then married to businessman Michael Dodd from 2006 until 2017.

Rick has also been divorced twice – first from TV reporter Penny Daniels, with whom he has two children, and then from pro poker player Beth Shak.

Beth and Rick were together four years before eloping to Graceland Wedding Chapel in Las Vegas in June 2016 – only to split up less than a full year later.

Rick proposed to Kelly last November and they got married this October in Santa Rosa, California, both wearing black.

Last month Kelly’s brother Eric Meza revealed that their mother Bobbi Meza had come down with coronavirus and was in intensive care.

However at the start of this month Kelly appeared on Watch What Happens Live and revealed her mother had returned home safely from the hospital.

‘Well, my mom and I are estranged right now,’ she told host Andy Cohen, who also produces the Real Housewives.

Kelly revealed that ‘I found out that she had COVID in ICU through – my older brother didn’t even know either – through Instagram.’

She added: ‘So my brother put that out there, didn’t have the, you know – he couldn’t even call me or my brother to tell us that my mom was in ICU with COVID, and I ended up talking to her at Thanksgiving and she is doing fine. She’s at home.’

During the interview she also addressed the spot of controversy she found herself in this April when she called the pandemic ‘God’s way of thinning the herd.’ 

‘It was a stupid thing for me to say. It was insensitive and I apologize if I hurt or offended anybody, ’cause that wasn’t really my intention. I got like freaked out about it and in hindsight it was the stupidest thing I ever said,’ she said.
