Alexia Umansky is so in love with her fiancé and longtime friend, Jake Zingerman. After Kyle Richards’ second oldest daughter got engaged this past November, they just celebrated their romance at an engagement party and shared some brand new details about their relationship.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills daughter took to TikTok over the weekend, where she posted a video of her and Jake dancing together at their engagement party at Kyle’s gorgeous Encino home. In the video, Alexia and Jake can be seen dancing underneath colorful lanterns and lights, surrounded by their closest friends and family members, as she explained the chance meeting that led them to getting engaged in the text over the video.
“The butterfly effect is crazy, because what do you mean my mom took me out of my elementary school in 2nd grade because my teachers put it on the chalk board that I got 0 votes when I ran for class president, so then she put me in the same elementary school that my dad went to, where in 3rd grade I met my best friends, including my now fiancé, and now 20 years later, we all danced together at our engagement party,” she wrote.
“AND my best friend was the party planner,” she added in the caption of the post. “My heart is full.”
Read on to get all of the details surrounding their sweet relationship, including what Kyle thinks about the couple, and plans for their upcoming wedding.

Perfect.’ She’s like, ‘What do you think about this wedding planner?’ I’m like, ‘Love it. Great. Done.’ She’s like, ‘What do you think about this date?’ I’m like, ‘Great, done.’ So she has a very clear vision of what she wants, and basically we just have to pay for it.”

When she isn’t planning her wedding to the love of her life, Alexia is relaxing at her gorgeous house in West Hollywood.
