 Jeff Lewis is doubling down on his diss of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards’ marriage saying the 54-year-old “hates” Mauricio [Umansky].

Not only did he shade her marriage saying that Kyle “hates” Mauricio, but the radio and television personality also went so far as to call the socialite a “lesbian” for the second time at BravoCon.  

During the Ask Andy panel at BravoCon 23, Jeff, 53, said, from watching the opening scene of RHOBH he could tell, “Kyle f**king hates Mauricio” adding that it was “clear as day. She hates him. I was watching that and I’m like, ‘she is done. She is over him.’”  

Jeff also added that he didn’t exactly know what Mauricio could have done to make Kyle so angry. The Flipping Out alum mentioned it again in a recent episode of SiriusXM’s Jeff Lewis Live.  

“In that scene, I’m talking about, I’m not saying she hates him today, which I think she does. I’m saying that in episode one of Beverly Hills, that exchange with Mauricio about the tattoo, she looks like she wanted to kill him,” Jeff explained, via Heavy. 

Fans may recall that in July 2023, PEOPLE reported that Kyle and Mauricio had separated. Of course, since then, both have maintained that they are still working on their marriage privately. But Jeff seems pretty certain the marriage is over.  

In an Access Hollywood interview, Kyle addressed Lewis’s claims, saying, “I did not like Jeff Lewis getting up there and saying ‘Kyle hates Mauricio.” Because, she said, “that’s not true. I love Mauricio very much and we are very close in spite of what we’re going through.” 

 The Beverly Hills socialite went on to add that she doesn’t like to hear such claims, saying, “I don’t even like that put out there. I don’t want anyone hearing that. It’s not true.” 

Naturally, Kyle and Mauricio’s marriage was discussed at length during BravoCon 23. Kyle was questioned quite a bit about her marriage, but she maintained an upbeat vibe throughout.  

However, the Bravolebrity did get emotional at one point during the Livin’ in Beverly Hills panel. She reiterated that she and Mauricio love each other very much and that they are family “no matter what happens.”  

“My three girls still live at home, only Farrah has her own place. He was busy doing ‘Dancing with the Stars,’ so he wasn’t around as much. We’re trying to figure it out. We know we love each other,” she said as she began to tear up. “This is not my idea of my fairy tale, clearly.”
