Kyle Richards’ estranged husband Mauricio Umanski is ‘not dating’ Leslie Begg.
It was claimed to be Mauricio’s father – Eduardo Umansky – who is allegedly dating her, it states TMZ.
Rumors of a romance between Mauricio and Leslie began after they were introduced at a dinner together with his dad Eduardo and his mum Dr Estella Snyder – as his estranged wife Kyle Richards hit the road with her rumored girlfriend Morgan Wade.
Umanski, 53, Bega – a 56-year-old actress with whom he works at his real estate agency – and his parents – who are divorced, dined at Il Pastaio restaurant in Beverly Hills, California.
In July, Umanski split from the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star, 54, after 27 years of marriage.
The meal followed the latest taping of Dancing with the Stars, on which he is a contestant this year.
“It was a wonderful treat to continue to celebrate Mauricio,” Snyder said in a post documenting the evening with a carousel of photos.

The outlet announced that Leslie was Edward’s sidekick for the Dancing With The Stars taping. Estella also attended the filming.
Leslie, Eduardo and Estela went out to dinner, and Mauricio later joined them, according to TMZ.
Eduardo also works for the Agency.
Bega took to Instagram on Tuesday from the set of the ABC series, saying she was there ‘supporting Mauricio … on a Latin night!’
The actress is best known for her work on TV shows, including the cult HBO series The Sopranos, in which she played Valentina La Paz; and the 1980s ABC comedy The Boss, in which she played Maria Borges.
Her most recent role was an uncredited cameo in Quentin Tarantino’s 2019 hit Once Upon a Time… in Hollywood, according to iMDband in recent years she has focused her professional energy on the real estate industry.
After their divorce, Umansky appears to be on friendly terms with Richards, who went on a weekend trip with Wade to Buellton, California, in the Santa Ynez Valley.
Richards put on a cozy display with close friend and rumored lover Wade as the pair enjoyed a trip down the coast on Thursday.

Richards – who has vehemently denied being in a lesbian ‘affair’ with Wade – was seen enjoying an intimate chat with the singer, before embracing her.
Showing the closeness of their relationship, the pair donned almost identical outfits as they stopped for coffee and sightseeing.
It comes after a bombshell trailer for The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills showed Richards breaking down over the state of her relationship with husband Umansky.

Richards and Umansky revealed in July that they were divorcing after 27 years of marriage, but the 53-year-old real estate mogul insisted on Wednesday that they are “not throwing in the towel” just yet.
The new trailer also showed the couple’s four daughters — Farah, 34, Alexia, 27, Sofia, 23, and Porsha, 15 — sobbing as they gathered as a family to discuss the shock split.
Wade made her first appearance in a RHOBH trailer amid rumors that she and Richards are more than ‘just friends.’
The duo have become increasingly close over the past few months, with Richards even appearing as Wade’s love interest in the music video for her hit, Fall In With Me, where they share a kiss.
Umanski brought up the ‘affair’ at one point during the trailer while having an intense relationship with Richards, which led to her accusing him of being unfaithful.
“I’m just glad you’re out there having an affair,” he said, to which she replied, “For once, it’s me.”
Another scene brought fans to the tension between the pair as a visibly emotional Richards stormed out of their dining room after Umansky sternly interrupted the conversation between them.
During an emotional meeting with their girlfriends, Kyle assured them: “We are a very strong family and always will be. You know nothing can change that.’

Kyle was brought to tears herself as she spoke candidly with co-star Erica Jane about the state of her community.
There were further references to rumors of infidelity on Umanski’s part, with Crystal’s housekeeper even weighing in.
And although he recently confirmed that the two are currently separated, he candidly revealed that the longtime couple is not giving up on their relationship.
Mauricio explained: “We are fighting for this. We have been married for 27 years, 26 amazing years. Kyle is my best friend, she’s an amazing person, I love her… and marriages go through hard times sometimes, and that’s what we’re dealing with right now. ‘
The real estate broker went on to say that going through the split and being in the public eye is difficult, but he wants their fans to know that they are being as transparent as possible.
Mauricio said PEOPLE: “It’s very difficult to be in the public eye and have so much inquisition when you’re going through something difficult.
“My wife is just being looked at so intensely and it’s really not fair.” She’s just a person. She’s an amazing person, she’s my best friend and she doesn’t deserve to be judged like that for everything she does.’
He also said interest in the state of their marriage is “too much” as he urged fans to “give us time” to figure things out.
The reality star added: “We promise to keep you posted. We are not hiding anything from you.’
