Fans have become increasingly curious about Leslie Bega after she was spotted having dinner with “Buying Beverly Hills” star Mauricio Umansky following his performance on week 2 of “Dancing With the Stars.”
However, a rep for Umansky has told Heavy that the two are not romantically involved, calling any reports suggesting such “not factual or accurate.”
On October 9, 2023, TMZ reported that Bega is dating Umansky’s dad, Eduardo, who is divorced from Umansky’s mom, Estella.
Meanwhile, Umansky recently confirmed that he is separated from his wife, “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star Kyle Richards.
“Kyle and I are human beings, we have emotions, we have feelings. We’re going through a really hard time, okay? We are currently separated. We are not talking about divorce, and we’re trying to deal with this stuff internally, privately,” he told paparazzi in video obtained by TMZ.
In addition to the dinner that Bega shared with Umansky and his parents, she also posted videos from her time in the live audience at “Dancing With the Stars,” where she was on-hand to cheer on her friend, Umansky, who is competing on season 32.
