No Suspects In Kyle Richards Mansion Robbery; Mauricio Umansky Speaks Out

Kyle Richards Vacations In Aspen; Home Is Robbed

Kyle Richards Vacations In Aspen; Home Is Robbed

Last week Kyle Richards‘ home was robbed while the Real Housewives Of Beverly Hills star was vacationing in Aspen. Shockingly the thieves simply broke a window and climbed into the mansion, then made off with over a million dollars worth of jewelry!

In reaction to the burglary Mauricio Umansky posted an emotional instagram message reminding everyone that family matters more than things. “2017 Memories #family Nothing replaces Family. They can steal your belongings but they can’t steal your memories or your love,” he shared along with photos from their year. 

According to sources priceless family heirlooms were nabbed – including Kyle’s original gold wedding ring which was inscribed with “Mauricio Forever” inside the band.  Other pieces were heirlooms from Kyle’s mother, which Kyle hoped to pass down to her daughters. Kyle also lost a pair of earrings worth $150,000 that were a 20th anniversary gift from Maurcio. In fact, Kyle lost every piece of jewelry she didn’t bring with her to Aspen!

ALL of Kyle’s super pricey designer purses – including her Birkin! – were also taken. I guess, the good thing is she gets to do a lot of shopping to make up for it! Kyle wasn’t the only one affected – Mauricio lost over $150,000 worth of watches, including one that was a gift from his late grandfather.

Police say this was a professional job – the thieves knew the family would be out of town and plotted in advance what to steal. For instance, the thieves knew their dogs – including a 100lb German Shepard – were also off the premises at an obedience course, and that the security system was deactivated because the Encino mansion was also undergoing renovations. The thieves broke a second story window and used a ladder to climb in, and restricted their activity to the two master bedroom closets, but didn’t venture into the remainder of the house.  TMZ reports there are currently no suspects.

Despite all of this information the family doesn’t believe it was an inside job or aided by someone working for them. In fact law enforcement found similarities to the robbery that affected Mariah Carey a few months back.

Well, at least the thieves didn’t steal Kyle’s god-damn house!

In other news, tonight RHOBH returns.  Dorit Kemsley celebrates her birthday and invites her new friend (former enemy) Erika Girardi. Unfortunately Dorit’s son Jagger didn’t get the memo that Erika is now a “good guy.” Erika begins work on her memoir “Pretty Mess” and becomes emotional about her father.

Dorit’s makes some negative comments about Lisa Rinna despite their peace talk, has Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave questioning Dorit’s character. Lastly Kyle vacations in Croatia with her family. Join us in the comments below to discuss the episode, and catch our recap tomorrow morning.

Reality TV Star New Year’s Eve Photos: Lala Kent, NeNe Leakes, Kyle Richards, LeeAnne Locken & More

Reality TV Star New Year’s Eve Photos: Lala Kent, NeNe Leakes, Kyle Richards, LeeAnne Locken & More
Your favorite Reality TV stars celebrated 2018 in style and documented their good times on social media, of course. They shared photos with their significant others, children, and friends on New Year’s Eve.

The most shocking post by far was from Vanderpump Rules star Lala Kent who finally posted a photo with her longtime boyfriend Randall Emmett, after over a year of speculation about their relationship. Then again, the news became officially official when that video leaked of them making out at a party, his divorce is actually finalized, and there’s really no reason to keep the romance under wraps at this point. It was just pretty surprising considering how private the two have been in the past.

Dancing With the Stars pros Maksim Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd rang in the new year with their adorable baby Shai. Mob Wives alum Drita D’Avanzo spent some quality time with her two daughters. A pregnant Meghan Edmonds had a family-filled night with her daughter Aspen and her step children. Danielle Staub rung in the new year with her daughters Jillian Staub and Christine Staub. Brandi Redmond and her husband Bryan Redmond hung out with their two daughters.

Real Housewives of New Jersey alum Kathy Wakile spent the evening with her husband Richie Wakile. Siggy Flicker and her husband were back at their home away from home: Boca Raton. Stassi Schroeder continued to be Katie Maloney and Tom Schwartz’s favorite third wheel during a trip to Palms Springs, California.

Dorinda Medley rocked a wig and “channeled” to channel her inner Caroline Stanbury. Bethenny Frankel and her longtime friend Kyle Richards celebrated together in Aspen, Colorado along with Kyle’s niece Paris Hilton. Tamra Judge and her Real Housewives of Orange County costar Shannon Beador started 2018 together.

Check out all of those photos and more in the New Year’s Eve photo gallery below.

Shannon Beador At The Cotton Bowl With Her Daughters- Photos!

Shannon Beador At The Cotton Bowl With Her Daughters- Photos!

It seems like things are only getting better for Shannon Beador ever since she announced her new status as a single lady. She even went on a girls trip with two of her daughters over the weekend to attend the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Texas. Unfortunately, one of Shannon’s daughters had to miss out on the trip because she had to compete in a basketball tournament.

Shannon and her (soon to be) ex husband David Beador went to USC games all the time with their girls- even after the divorce announcement. So it’s not surprising that Shannon and the girls made the trip out to Texas to support their favorite team.

Shannon posted photos of all the weekend highlights, from the flight there to pre-game celebrations, to the game itself. Their team ended up losing the game, but it looks like they had a fun time anyway.

Shannon shared photos of her trip with Adeline and Stella throughout the weekend. Check out the snaps in the photo gallery below.

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Here a cheat, there a cheat, everywhere a cheat cheat! On Vanderpump Rules there is no other way. Seriously what is in the Vanderpump Vodka at SUR that makes all the men (except for Ken) cheat? Lisa Vanderpump needs to do a seminar on how to keep your man muzzled and on a tight leash!

Brittany Cartwright hasn’t even forgiven Jax Taylor for his indiscretions (or the many times of them) before it came out that Tom Schwartz had a drunken make-out he does not recall.

But first the ladies are still camped out at Brittany’s to try and protect her from Jax. After a suuuuper drunken night of twerking – which apparently wards off evil boyfriends – Scheana Marie wakes up on the sofa in some enormous turquoise glasses and announces she’ll be boarding a private jet for Vegas with Lala Kent in 0-700 hours, and therefore all this drama has to hurry it up! At the words private jet, Stassi Schroeder wanders into the room – drinking a hair of the dog – just in time to hear Katie Maloney get all Hangry Katie on what a skank Lala is for breaking up a marriage

Katie has scruples and morals you guys! She would never get on a private jet paid for by someone’s married boyfriend – even if he is separated, he only is because of Lala. Scheana obviously has no such moral quandaries. Cause Scheana conscience…and this conscience is called foreshadowing. Maybe Scheana jinxed Katie by being in her wedding?

It was the smell of Taco Bell that beckoned Jax. Suddenly he felt a yearning like never before and returned, groping blindly for his faded Taco Bell sweater-jacket when he fell into a pile of off-duty witches. Yep, there they were: stuffing their faces with hatred for Jax, and ready to throw him into a vat of the Taco Bell Fire Sauce to skin him alive. Y’all know Stassi has like a secret pig roast in her apartment for such occasions.

Jax is furious to see all the women. He shrieks that it’s HIS apartment and he has the right to be there. Brittany flies off the sofa and starts smacking him in the head while pushing him out the door. Which is about the only thing to do with a pest. She really needed a dick swatter, actually.

In the background Brittany’s cheerleading squad cheers her on. TWO-FOUR-SIX-HATE – Who do we majorly hate?! JAX! JAX TAYLOR. Beat, Beat Jax Taylor! Unfortunately Jax doesn’t really leave, but goes off to sulk and complain that Brittany is being influenced while continuing to lie that he only cheated with Faith once. The way Jax speaks to Britany is revolting and gross. UGH Brittany – why is she still with him?

While Jax is being pelted by enraged, hopefully soon-to-be-ex-girlfriends, Tom 1 and Tom 2 are trying really super hard to adult. They have a meeting with Lisa and Ken to discuss the future of the Tom-Tom partnership. Obviously Tom Tom will live forever, but will they take it next level and cement their relationship into a business? To summon their courage they listened to Eminem “Lose Yourself” on repeat – which of course is their anthem. I mean, I would’ve expected Boys Of Summer to be their theme song, so I guess I’m pleasantly surprised. I am not pleasantly surprised by Tom 2’s rust-colored ‘cowboy’ shirt in all it’s rumpled glory.

Before her Taco Bell haze set in, Katie gushed about how hot handsome and super manly Tom 2 looked in that shirt. Tom 2 is 12 lbs of pasty marshmallow fluff and obviously that’s not what defines manly, nor does crying about your lack of ambition before the dumpster of a bar while your BFF shows his solidarity by letting his self-tanner streak on national television. Ah, SUR-landia!Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Anyway, Tom 1 and Tom 2 give themselves a prep talk in Lisa’s driveway while wait on the porch, complaining that the Tom’s negativity questions if they’re sincere. They don’t want partners, they want sycophants! Nothing about this whole situation really feels believable to me, but anyway after making the Tom’s squirm, Lisa and Ken agree to let them invest $50k for 5% partnership each and work their way up to 10% with sweat equity and additional monies later on. How much does this show pay these people? Cause I would think they could scrape together $120k, but I guess that doesn’t make for a very dramatic storyline.

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

After the meeting the Toms dance and sing about private sexy moments, which inspires Tom 1 tries to ask Ariana Madix to drop everything for some mid-afternoon nookie. But she’s just too busy meeting Scheana. It does take forever for Scheana to talk about Scheana… Instead Tom 2 invites him over.

Of course Katie’s life partner Stassi is STILL there, drinking beers and loafing around in her PJs. So, Stassi has turned into The Dude? Instead of champagne the Toms roll in with a case of PBR pretending to drown their sorrows but SIKE! Poor Katie is so excited because this apparently proves to her that Tom 2 is finally becoming a real grownup. It’s more like Peter Pan has turned into Pinocchio and every time Tom 2 tells a lie he gets another wrinkle and grey hair and looses a bit of his cuteness.

That will all happen soon, because while the Toms are celebrating, Lala is visiting with Scheana and Ariana. Could Scheana be any worse? She has replaced all her wedding photos with giant photoshopped photos of HER OWN FACE. Displayed like works of art. It is a museum of Scheanaography. UGH! UGH! UGH!

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Scheana and Lala are soulmates in narcissism apparently because Lala is wearing a dress screen printed with HER OWN FACE. While Scheana has been binging on Taco Bell, Lala has been pre-Vegas juicing. According to her, any woman with tits can score a ticket to ride on a private jet. Oh is that all it takes? Obviously not, since Katie has never flown those friendly skies! And neither has Scheana until her affiliation with Lala’s man. And, oh Lala’s man, when Scheana reveals that Katie has been talking shit about him allegedly cheating, Lala explodes. She thought making peace with Katie was a mutual ceasefire against talking crap, but instead Katie wants to throw grenades from behind enemy lines and now wants to “get popped.”

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

According to Lala, when Katie was in NYC with her sister wives Stassi and Kristen Doute, Tom 2 got wasted and made out with another SURver named Allie, who happens to be a friend of Lala’s. Allie kinda resembles a S1 Katie, and Tom kept calling her “bubba” then couldn’t keep his hands off her so they made out. Lala had never planned to tell anyone about this, which is why she filmed talking to Allie about it AT SUR, but after Katie went on her suicide bomber mission… the truce was off. Scheana and Ariana are shocked. Ariana decides to talk to Tom 2 about it.

Stassi finally put on some pants to go do her “J-O-B’ of planning Guillermo’s party at SUR. It basically seems like Lisa did all the work and Stassi is her errand girl, but sure Stassi – you planned a party! Lisa allows Stassi temporary custody of her credit card which makes Stassi breathless. She actually has an inappropriate moment caressing, smelling, and kissing it – I think it filed sexual harassment charges, actually. Lisa warns her that she checks the statement … so Stassi better not be buying anything unapproved. Poor Stassi she can’t have Guillermo’s cake and eat it too.

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Neither can Jax. Lisa warned him that since Brittany is working the birthday party he can’t come, nor is he scheduled. Since everyone else – even Kristen who is desperate to get her face on TV and needs a paycheck, is at Guillermo’s. Jax is reduced to hanging out with James Kennedy, in an absinthe bar. Maybe it was the hallucinogenic qualities that made Jax hear the voice of God in James Kennedy, but he needs more of that deity, cause James makes sense. James must’ve used an American accent to make sure Jax could understand his English before imparting important advice.

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

This was my favorite thing that happened last night. After a couple mind-altering shots James turned into Dr. Spock, counselor of crazy; wisely listening and offering advice about Jax’s cheating situation. Jax is actually more in love with Brittany than ever now that they’re having daily “hate sex.” Apparently Jax cheats because of the “Madonna Syndrome” since Brittany is his “princess” of beer cheese, Jax has to cheat so he can indulge all his dirty impulses.

James just calmly listened, non-judgmentally, and told Jax that he can’t just have a slice without wanting “the whole f–king shebang” he should just stay away from cake. This advice came after Tom 2 offered that Jax and Brittany have an open relationship. Or a don’t ask don’t tell clause. Maybe it was projecting on Tom’s part though!

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Meanwhile back at the party, Ariana takes Tom 2 out back to the dumpsters. Cause where else does one receive life-altering information and have poignant, heart-wrenching discussions? This is the Mecca. It is not only where dreams go to die, but lives go to be shifted into shapes unidentifiable to human eyes and in 10,000 years scholars will be trying to decipher these sharpie hieroglyphics for a glimpse into an extent civilization of sociopaths.

Tom 2 has “no recollection” of this so-called indiscretion that happened in January or February, but he admits being at the bar and being supremely drunk. And he also doesn’t deny it or seem completely aghast at the idea that he potentially cheated. With that all signs point to YES, Tom 2 had a drunken makeout. Ariana suggests that Tom 2 wait to talk to Katie about this, at home, privately. Save for some Bravo cameras. But where is the reality TV fun in that?!

Instead the second they get back inside Tom 2 blurts it out to Katie in front of Kristen, Stassi, and Tom 1. Ariana even tries to silence him, but Tom was ripping that bandaid off. He just dropped that little info bomb in there so casually, shrugged it off and acted as if Katie had no reason to flip out. After all – he doesn’t “recall” it happening and if you can’t see it in your foggy memories, it didn’t happen right?

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

Personally I think Tom 2 was going for the safety in numbers thing. He knew if he told Katie in front of everyone else she couldn’t use one of Stassi’s many bedazzled bottle openers to remove what’s left of his penis. In public she can get her anger out then storm out with Kristen and Stassi. I actually think Katie was remarkably restrained. She was wearing a gown up dress, attending a grown-up party, celebrating Tom 2’s grown up success when all the grown-up walls came crashing down as a illusion and Tom 2 turned back into the little boy he is and will always be. Tom 2 has some serious skeletons or something in his past. Like why did mom tof his family miss his wedding? He had NO emotion when he told Katie he cheated. He just blurted it out there, and went back to having drinks with Tom 1.

T0m 2 was more upset that Lisa noticed the drama, and he had to tell her what happened. He kept telling her it was “too embarrassing.” Of course this has Lisa concerned – what kind of 5% business partner can Tom 2 be if he doesn’t even remember where he puts his pants half the time? Will he be misplacing the keys of Tom Tom? Will his pants be pulling a disappearing act at work?

Vanderpump Rules Recap: Tequila Tom

For once Katie didn’t go Tequila Katie. She yelled at Tom and called him disgusting, but she didn’t flip out and act a crazy fool. She was suitably embarrassed and horrified that her husband can’t keep his hands to himself, but appropriately so. Katie’s reaction seemed genuine. I actually felt bad for her. Especially when Tom 2 told her to “have some perspective, dude” as she walked away in tears.

Here’s the thing – Tom 2 never wanted to go through the wedding and now he’s passive-aggressive sabotaging. Katie thinks there in the best place ever, but that’s just what he wants her to think or know. It’s not fair to her and she’s right: What is wrong with him?

At least Brittany now knows she’s not alone. She was temporarily distracted from crying over Jax’s infidelity to rally around Katie. Actually I think Brittany and Katie should move in together and Tom 2 and Jax can move down the hall.  Tom 1 could make daily appearances as their voice of reason and James could pop in to counsel them. Now THAT would be a great reality show.

TELL US – DO YOU THINK TOM 2 HAS “NO RECOLLECTION” OF MAKING OUT WITH LALA’S FRIEND? DID LALA GO TOO FAR REVEALING THE NEWS?
