Mauricio Umansky from The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills has nothing but love for his estranged wife, Kyle Richards.
That became clear when he liked an Oct. 26 Instagram post showing Kyle with Erika Jayne and RHOBH alums Teddi Mellencamp and Lisa Rinna, the four women making up most of what’s famously known in the series as the “Fox Force Five (more about the band below).”
Lisa R. shared the epic, Mau-approved snap onto her Instagram Stories with the caption “Celebrating Life” complete with a heart emoji. All four smiled close to one another before Mr. Brainwash’s 2021 “Smile!” art on Melrose Ave. in West Hollywood, all wearing denim jeans and black tops. Missing from the girl gang, however, was Dorit Kemsley.
What’s more, Lisa commented with a handful of cryptic emojis, including one of a hot dog, like the one Erika shared from Lisa’s Stories around the same time. Captioned the “Xxpen$ive” singer, “Once twice a year,” a reference to the Season 9 premiere when both ’Wives shared a bond over their franks at Kyle’s barbecue get-together.
Where do Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky stand now?
Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie, Kyle’s firstborn from her first marriage, is also a proud agent of her stepdad’s business.
In September, the parents came together to celebrate Alexia’s marriage to Jake Zingerman, where a professional photographer captured the exes during a lighthearted back-and-forth, a show of their lasting friendship.
As Kyle explained in an Amazon Live in late July, “We’re great friends and we love our daughters and we built a beautiful family and it’s nice to know even though we’re separated, we can keep it that way,” she said. “I’m really proud of how we are navigating this separation.”

What is the Fox Force Five?
The Fox Force Five consists of Kyle Richards, Erika Jayne, Teddi Mellencamp, Lisa Rinna, and Dorit Kemsley.
The nickname came after the Season 9 cast’s trip to Provence, France. Looking back, Teddi called it “one of [their] best trips,” adding that the Fox Force Five “put in the work and had so many belly laughs.”
Kyle, who admitted on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills After Show in 2021 that she “hated” the moniker, explained to sister Kathy Hilton the origins of the name. Said the OG Housewife, “Lisa Rinna, like, put that on a photo once, and it kind of stuck. I don’t even know what it means. Someone told me that they think it’s from Pulp Fiction or something.”
When Teddi announced her departure from RHOBH before Season 11 began, she called the squad her “foxes,” telling her Instagram followers that they were “bonded forever.” At the time, she noted, “I had so many laughs with the Fox Force Five, so I can’t imagine not keeping in touch with them.”
Two years after the trip and following the Season 11 premiere, Erika posted an Instagram photo of the five of them clasping their hands with the caption, “Bonded forever. Foxes,” with a fox emoji. “Don’t bet against us.”
