While Buying Beverly Hills fans may still be shipping Alexia Umansky and Joey Ben-Zvi, Kyle Richards‘ daughter actually has a longtime boyfriend outside of the Netflix series.

“Alexia’s got a boyfriend that’s been around for a long, long time,” Mauricio Umansky exclusively told Us Weekly in a joint interview with daughters Alexia, 26, and Farrah Aldjufrie. “He’s awesome. We love him.”

On the real estate series, however, Alexia is candid about working with Joey — her longtime friend who she used to hook up with — as they are both a part of The Agency’s Team Umansky.

“I don’t know how much reality there is to that or not reality there is to that,” Mauricio continued about it coming out on the series that Alexia and Joey allegedly used to make out in her dad’s car. “As a father, that’s one of those things that I’m just, you know … see no evil, hear no evil.”

Alexia subsequently chimed in.

“It’s not your everyday situation where you kind of make out with your high school friend and then you talk about it three years later on TV while you have a boyfriend and your dad and your sister and all your colleagues are involved. That’s a little bit of a weird situation,” she explained before clarifying: “I don’t ever recall actually doing that inside my dad’s car.”

After Alexia and Mauricio acknowledged that Ben did repeat that story on the show, she added: “It is what it is. All love for everybody.”

Alexia has shared glimpses of her actual boyfriend, Jake Zingerman, via Instagram. They have been linked since at least 2020.
