Beverly Hills, CA - Following the turbulent divorce from Kyle Richards, the Umansky family faces a new crisis. This time, Sophia Umansky, the couple's second daughter, has decided to speak out, accusing her father, Mauricio Umansky, of "neglecting the family" due to his relationship with a young girlfriend, Alexa, an ambitious real estate agent.
"I tried to stay silent to protect my siblings and preserve the family image," Sophia shared in an exclusive interview with "The Real Deal," a real estate magazine. "But I can't ignore the fact that my father is gradually drifting away from us."
According to Sophia, Mauricio has changed a lot since he started dating Alexa. He spends most of his time with his girlfriend, often traveling and attending real estate events with her, neglecting to care for his children and support Kyle after the divorce.
"He's always busy with Alexa," Sophia said. "He no longer has time for us. Even on special family occasions, he is often absent."
Sophia also expressed concern that Mauricio is using his position and relationships to help Alexa advance in her career.
"Alexa is new to the business, but my father always creates opportunities for her to connect with big clients and important projects," Sophia said. "I'm not against helping others, but I feel it's unfair to those who have worked hard to build their careers."
In addition, Sophia alluded to financial tensions within the family after the divorce, suggesting that Mauricio is prioritizing investments for Alexa over securing the future for his children.
"We're not asking him to provide for us as before," Sophia said. "But we expect him to be more responsible as a father and ensure that we have a stable future."
Sophia's accusations have sparked a wave of controversy in the Beverly Hills real estate community. Many have spoken out in support of Sophia, arguing that Mauricio is acting irresponsibly and selfishly.
Meanwhile, Mauricio Umansky and Alexa have not issued any official response to Sophia's allegations. However, a source close to Mauricio said that he is "extremely disappointed" with his daughter's words and believes that Sophia is being influenced by negative emotions following her parents' divorce.
Can the Umansky family overcome this difficult period? Will Mauricio change his behavior and mend his relationship with his children? And will Sophia's revelations affect Mauricio's career and reputation in the real estate world? The answer remains open, but one thing is certain: the story of the Umansky family will continue to be a hot topic in Beverly Hills high society.
