Paris Hilton called Mauricio Umansky out for “using the Hilton name” to gain clout.ย
Instagram’sย @QueensOfBravo posted a preview for the second season of Buying Beverly Hillsย in which Mauricio spoke of getting ‘fucked’ by the Hilton family.
**Of course, Mauricio is married (although estranged) to Real Housewives of Beverly Hills‘s Kyle Richardsย who is sisters with Kathy Hilton and is Paris’s mom.**
Paris slammed Mauricio for speaking poorly of the Hilton Hotels:
After seeing the preview of Buying BH, Paris slipped into the comment section to defend her dad and slam her Uncle Mauricio in one fell swoop.
Theย Paris In Love star began, “My father is a consummate gentleman and has always taken the higher road.”
“He would never speak negatively about his family – especially in the press.”
“Frankly, we are all sick of him using the Hilton name every chance he gets to plug his lame show.”
“It is enough already,” concluded The Simple Lifeย icon.
Netflix and Bravo TV fans react:
- Kathy is currently not hunky dory….
- Damn she said โhis lame showโ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐๐
- Heโs used the Hilton name since day one and I think he used Kyle this entire time.
- Mauricio AND Kyle have rode on the coattails of the Hilton name
- Itโs a shame that Mauricio not only threw his wife under the bus, but could possibly be creating more of a divide within the family. Does he not realize that his daughters are first cousins to Paris?
- Paris is iconic ๐ love it or hate it
In case you missed it:
During a preview for Buying Beverly Hills, Mauricio and his colleagues enjoyed wine while throwing his estranged wife’s family under the bus.
“So, I think I got fucked by Hilton & Hyland,” explained Mau.ย “And when I say, fucked, you know, like, today, I’m happy.”
“But, there was 100 agents at Hilton & Hyland. They did $1 billion for the first time a year.”
“I was 19.6% of their production. I went to Rick and I said, ‘I’d really like equity and to be a partner.'”
Mauricio explained, “He went back, he talked to Jeff, he got back to me, and basically I was told, ‘No.'”
Family feud:
Surprisingly, Mauricio spilled piping hot tea regarding his history with Paris’s family and the Hilton name … that audiences never got on 13 seasons of RHOBH.
“Then I went home, I talked to Kyle. I go, ‘this is really going to cause a lot of stress between you, your sister, and your family.”
Basically, “I don’t want to do this move of leaving and starting a company if you’re not comfortable.”
Kyle “was 100% supportive.”
“And I remember they said to me, ‘How did you not give us any warning or any issue?’ And I was like, ‘Warning?'”
Paris’s Uncle Mauricio continued,ย “I think Hilton & Hyland is an amazing company. I’ve never be caught speaking poorly about them because I don’t think poorly about them.”
“And, I am Rick [Hilton]‘s brother-in-law, but unfortunately, it got sour because it really affected the family.”
“Kyle [was affected] more than anybody. Her family stopped speaking to her.”
“But, she understood that what was done to me was wrong, and she stood by me, and at the end of the day, I needed that.”
