The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star took to her Instagram Story to publicly call out a company named Saphily. The brand had been using an AI-generated version of Richards to promote a product she had never heard of, let alone endorsed.
In a direct message to the company and her followers, Richards made her position clear. “This company is using an AI version of me to promote their product that I’ve never heard of. I do not endorse this product. [Saphily Official] please take this down immediately,” she wrote, adding a stern warning: “FAFO [F*ck Around, Find Out].”
To avoid any confusion, she posted a second Story to emphasize the situation. “For those of you who may have missed the small text on [my] previous story, this is an AI version of me. I am not promoting that product,” she reiterated.
A Family Bachelorette Celebration
Despite the digital drama, Richards shifted her focus to a joyous family occasion: the bachelorette party for her daughter, Alexia Umansky. The celebration was a true family affair, bringing together Alexia’s sisters, Farrah Aldjufrie, Sophia Umansky, and Portia Umansky.
The guest list also included cousins Nicky Hilton and Kimberly Jackson, along with close friend Justin Sylvester. Richards shared a vibrant video from the party, captioning it, “Loving this Family Bachelorette.” The clip showed the group dancing and celebrating together.
As fans know, Alexia became engaged to her longtime boyfriend, Jake Zingerman, last November. The couple, along with Kyle and Mauricio Umansky, held a lavish engagement party in May to commemorate the milestone.
Kathy Hilton's Noticeable Absence
While the bachelorette party was filled with family, one key member was missing: Kyle's sister, Kathy Hilton. Her absence was confirmed through a brief but telling exchange in the comments section of Kyle’s post.
Kathy commented on the video, writing, “Gorgeous family.”
Kyle replied directly, “Wish you were here!!”
Meanwhile, production for season 15 of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is currently underway, where these family dynamics and public dramas will likely continue to unfold.
