Kyle Richards Calls Rachel Zoe 'Too Old' for Mauricio as Umansky Rejects Romance Rumors

The RHOBH premiere brought the setup tale to air, with Umansky stressing that work is his priority.

Overview

  • Rachel Zoe said three people tried to set her up with Mauricio Umansky at a February 2025 Aspen event, and she declined out of respect for Kyle Richards and her social ties to Kathy Hilton.
  • On Watch What Happens Live, Richards said her 'too old' quip was aimed at Umansky’s recent preference for younger dates rather than at Zoe.
  • Paparazzi images published after November 26 showed Umansky being affectionate with CJ Franco, but he told Page Six the photos were misleading and that Franco is a friend, noting the coverage even intruded on his family’s Thanksgiving.
  • Umansky described himself as in a busy single period focused on The Agency and new ventures, saying he cannot even think about a relationship right now.
  • Asked about a reunion, Umansky told The Mirror he would not rule it out, while Richards declined to weigh in on WWHL; they remain separated after 27 years and have not filed for divorce.
