Mauricio has proudly been showing off his fitter form by taking off his shirt on the dance floor. So how do his and Kyle Richards' kids—Farrah, 34, Alexia, 27, Sophia, 23, and Portia, 15—feel about him showing so much skin as of late?

"My daughters are so supportive, they are loving it," he said with a laugh. "I'm 53 years old and not bad for 53, man. So, you gotta show it."

As for how the couple is doing today after announcing in July that they are going through a rough patch, but not considering divorce just yet?

"We're trying to keep it private, but at the end of the day we're not private people," Mauricio told E! this week. "We're public figures and the reality is we are separated right now. We are going through a really difficult time. It's been a struggle. We are not ready to throw in the towel. We are still working on our marriage and we're not in a rush."
