Paris Hilton Slams Mauricio Umansky For Bad Mouthing Her Father, Rick Hilton, In Buying Beverly Hills Preview

Paris Hilton calls out her uncle Mauricio Umansky.

Paris Hilton publicly slams Mauricio Umansky after he calls out her dad, Rick Hilton, for a bad business deal in the Buying Beverly Hills preview.

Past drama between the Hiltons and Umanskys is rearing its ugly head once again, thanks to the upcoming season of Buying Beverly Hills.

In a preview for season 2 of Buying Beverly Hills, Mauricio Umansky calls out brother-in-law Rick Hilton for screwing him over in the real estate business.

Mauricio Umansky explains that his fallout with Rick Hilton stems from his not being made a partner in the latter’s real estate agency, Hyland and Hilton, which ultimately led to him leaving to open his own real estate company, The Agency.

Mauricio Umansky Opens Up on building a $57B real-estate empire

“I think I got kind of f–ked by Hilton & Hyland,” the real estate mogul revealed in a sneak peek of BBH released on Tuesday.

“And when I say f–ked, you know, like, today I’m happy, but there was a hundred agents at Hilton & Hyland. They did a billion dollars for the first time a year. I was 19.6 percent of their production.”

According to Mauricio, he thought he deserved to be made partner due to the success he brought to his brother-in-law’s real estate company.

“I went to Rick, and I said, ‘I’d really like equity, right, and to be a partner,” he explained to several pals and colleagues.

However, Umansky was ultimately told “no” after Rick Hilton spoke with his co-founder Jeff Hyland about making Mauricio a partner.

As a result, the 53-year-old knew he had to leave Hilton & Hyland and create his own real estate company, but before doing so, he ran the idea past his now-estranged wife, Kyle Richards, because he believed it might cause drama within the family.

Rick Hilton, Kathy Hilton, Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky pose for photo at event in Los Angeles.

“‘This is really going to cause a lot of stress between you, your sister and your family, and I don’t want to do this move of leaving and starting a company if you’re not comfortable,’” Mauricio recalls telling Kyle, who is Kathy Hilton‘s youngest sister.

After Kyle gave Mauricio her seal of approval, he created The Agency, which has become one of the top real estate agencies in the world and even has its own reality show, Buying Beverly Hills.

See the preview below!

The clip mentioned above went viral on social media on Tuesday, so naturally, members of Rick Hilton’s family caught wind of it.

Paris Hilton, who has never been shy about calling out her family members on social media, slammed her uncle Mauricio Umansky.

The 43-year-old socialite made it known that she was not happy about Mauricio discussing her family empire and family on his show.

On Instagram, Paris Hilton wrote:

“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 plus his lame show. It is enough already…”

Part three of the Real Housewives of Beverly Hillseason 13 reunion airs March 13 at 8 p.m. on Bravo.

Sorry Paris, but you are not a top realtor at your dad's company so you have no idea what it is like to have your boss squash all your accomplishments and keep your career down to a minimum. Mo is only stating facts of his career. Be quiet or go get a job to understand his take on work life.

Mo is talking about how he felt like his bosses were so awful to him because they didn't give him a partnership, not just a promotion, 13 years ago. He is doing it publicly and one happens to be an in-law for even longer. Some businessman. So both families are trashy or what.

More family drama from this group of dysfunctional siblings/siblings-in-law. Mauricio has always acted more like one of the HW's rather than a professional business owner. Much like PK and a few other husbands on these shows. This is just the latest example. Not a one of these family members is the least bit interesting and their family drama is even less interesting.

Nothing unusual about a high earning agent going out on their own. In the real estate business, we are independent contractors working for ourselves. The brokers (Coldwell, Hathaway, Remax, Douglas Elliman etc;) merely retain our licenses, but WE call the shots (as far as the commission split goes). When agents become VERY big like Mauricio did, there is no longer a need to split their earnings ... so they get their own broker's license (and start their own co's) The Hiltons know this. In fact, I know agents who get PAID by their brokers (to stay at their offices).

Yeah, I’ve always failed to see the problem people have with what Mauricio did. To me it all seems Kyle hate by proxy from inside Kathy Hilton’s @ss ? (I will never understand the adulation of that woman). Seems to me it’s Rick who came out looking like the ahole, but far be it from me to get in the way of rabid Kyle hate. ?
Snarky Enigma March 13, 2024 - 3:45 pm
IKR? When it comes to Kyle, I'm neither a big fan or a foe. Slightly annoying at times, but she just never bothered me one way or the other.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 3:50 pm
Exactly. She’s kind of like an annoying fly or gnat you just swat away. You know she’s gonna come back anyway, but meh. ?

I think it's the way he did it. He said he wouldn't raid agents and he did. That is a no-no in most industries. Anyway, Mo is no angel. I think that's evident in the purchase and flip he did that resulted in a lawsuit. He made millions. Maybe legal but unethical.
Champagne Hangover March 14, 2024 - 11:33 am
Well, you know if we take a microscope to ALL the rich, Rick and Kathy included I dare say what we find would likely make Mauricio look like a choir boy in comparison. Wealth of that caliber is almost NEVER built on ethics but often QUITE the opposite. You don’t hear about it cuz power shuts mouth up and but quick. The PR that family employs is second to none. How else do you explain a mentally challenged, spoiled and narcissistic Paris Hilton becoming a national if not world wide phenomenon? And please don’t tell me that skank is secretly a marketing genius. No, her parents bankrolled ALL the marketing of that brat. The only ‘smart’ thing Paris did is listen to her PR people.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 1:40 pm
I will say this re: Paris (my ‘say something nice’ cuz I’m in a bitchy mood today): Paris looks better than ever! I’m not even going to mention how much of the credit goes to her very talented plastic surgeon. Nope, not a word about that. I’m ? fully in ‘nice’ mode now… ? https://media3.giphy.com/media/CYw8uWtsD12aGz2Mv0/giphy-downsized-small.mp4

? At least you're trying.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 3:33 pm
Lol. She does look really good, though. Hopefully she won’t eff it up by doing too much of whatever she did. I don’t like her, but it still pains me to see even the unlikable destroy their beauty. Leave your mug alone, Paris, it’s perfect!
Snarky Enigma March 13, 2024 - 3:35 pm
I've never bought the "It's all an act ... she's actually brilliant!" BS. In fact, I think she (and her mother) are just plain stupid intellectually challenged ... but even worse, dull as dishrags.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 3:47 pm
Yep, the only smart thing that skank did was listen to her marketing and PR team. If that’s brilliant give me a Hiltonesque PR/ marketing team and hold my beer…?

Money certainly doesn't buy class when it comes to any of them, except maybe Rick Hilton (ONLY because he doesn't act like a fool on social media/tabloids, etc, at least as far as I've seen). Mauricio is being a big whiney baby about something so long ago, just to keep his show although I don't see how that helps him. So what if he didn't make him a partner and so what if he went out on his own. I don't get how that is still a big deal to any of them. Was the only problem between Kathy and Kyle? (I read Hilton sold the real estate part because the partner died and his widow bought him out. Maybe Mauricio can buy it from her or finally be a partner so he can stop whining.)
Zap It March 13, 2024 - 11:05 am
It's an old story that Mo's repeating for ratings. He says that he would never speak poorly about his BIL and then goes on to speak poorly of him. Not necessarily a fan of the Hiltons but I'm team Paris on this one. She had every right to defend her father who Mo essentially called a shit on TV.
Snarky Enigma March 13, 2024 - 3:41 pm
Mauricio is a stoned mess ... how he got to where he is completely baffles me. When I'm stoned (which is like never anymore), all I want to do is listen to music, chill, and eat chips. https://media3.giphy.com/media/cFfwQuw6SRQXGK05Z4/giphy-downsized-small.mp4
Zap It March 14, 2024 - 10:55 am
I'm surprised you said this because I have wondered the same thing. He also doesn't seem that bright. Handsome yes.
Snarky Enigma March 14, 2024 - 4:39 pm
IKR? It's really annoying when less than smart people, become so $uccessful. I think we all know a few, I know I do.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 10:18 am
ALL these people, every. single. one. of. them are opportunistic, social climbing, backstabbing hypocrites whose hubris exceeds their usefulness. I have zero respect for any of them. That said, I don’t blame Mauricio one bit for telling Rick to eff off and showing him how sh*t’s done. I’d even respect him for it if there weren’t so very many other reasons not to respect him. To paint Rick and/or Kathy as paragons of virtue is laughable. They are no better than Mauricio and Kyle and I’d bet you dollars to donuts a good argument could be made that they’re worse. Even if not, so they take the silver instead of the gold in the scumbag Olympics. Yeah, I said it. ? https://media2.giphy.com/media/Q0c2I7XEs6ebRRuOpj/giphy-downsized-small.mp4
Zap It March 13, 2024 - 11:08 am
Agreed but I still think Paris can defend her father on SM given Mo trashed him on TV.
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 11:18 am
By doing the same thing. Classy. ? Then again Paris and classy go hand and hand like turd and punchbowl. And yes, I’m on the hate train. Choo, choo ?. Lol ? I’m in a mood today, ha! ?
Zap It March 13, 2024 - 11:34 am
Cheer up!?
Champagne Hangover March 13, 2024 - 12:26 pm
I’m trying. I’m just full of piss and vinegar today! Lol ?
