For her part, Wade has also spoken out about the speculation, stating that she is uncomfortable being dragged into unfounded relationship rumors. She emphasized that her connection with Richards is strictly platonic and professional in the entertainment industry.
The situation became even more intriguing when Richards and Wade continued to appear at public events together, including Wade’s concert in Los Angeles, where the singer dedicated a song to Mellencamp following her surgery. Their strong public support for one another in difficult times has only fueled further speculation about the nature of their bond.
Meanwhile, Umansky remains focused on his career and business ventures. His decision to incentivize a speedy divorce process indicates that he is determined to move forward quickly and put his marriage to Richards behind him.
