Mauricio Umansky faces backlash from 'The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills' stars and fans after replacing a photo of his estranged wife with his former 'Dancing with the Stars' partner.
- November 27, 2024
AceShowbiz - In a bombshell revelation made on the latest episode of "The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills", Sutton Stracke shared that Mauricio Umansky had removed a photo of his estranged wife, Kyle Richards, from his home office and replaced it with one of his former "Dancing with the Stars" partner, Emma Slater.
Umansky's move has sparked outrage among Kyle and her co-stars. Kathy Hilton condemned the decision, saying, "It would be one thing to take [Richards' picture] down. But then to put [Slater's] up? Come on." Erika Jayne added, "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."
Kyle herself expressed her disappointment, stating, "It feels weird that my picture was taken down too."
Rumors of a romantic relationship between Umansky and Slater emerged last October when they were photographed holding hands. Both denied the allegations, claiming they had become "really good friends" after spending extended periods together during "DWTS".
Kyle and Mauricio separated in July 2023 after 27 years of marriage. Since then, they have maintained a cordial relationship, which has been strained by the recent incident.
The replacement of the photo has raised questions about Umansky's true feelings and intentions. Sutton Stracke speculated that Kyle was "hurt" by the move, while Erika Jayne suggested it was a passive-aggressive act.
"The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills" cast has expressed their support for Kyle and condemned Umansky's actions. They have emphasized the importance of respecting boundaries and sensitivity during such a difficult time.
