The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills love to deflect from the real drama with made-up storylines (cough cough #puppygate) but will Kyle Richards be able to distract from this one?

The husband of The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards, Mauricio Umansky, has been deep in some legal drama for some time now.  Kyle was able to successfully keep the legal hubbub out of her storyline last season thanks to the scapedog Lucy Lucy Apple Juicy, but it looks like this legal trouble might be too big to conceal.

We previously reported that Mauricio was recently hit with a third lawsuit in relation to the sale of a $70 million home.  Now apparently people are jumping ship left and right at The Agency, Umansky’s company that is heavily featured on the show.

Back in the day, Kyle’s sister, Kathy Hilton, had her husband, Rick Hilton, give ol’ Mauricio a job at their company, Hilton & Hyland.  Long story short, Mauricio jumped ship and started his own company in direct competition with Hilton & Hyland.  Now it seems that all of the higher-ups at Mauricio’s company are now jumping ship to join Hilton & Hyland as the Agency sinks.  The two families have long feuded over the past drama and Mauricio still isn’t invited to swanky Hilton events to this day.

Since January of 2018, about 15% of the company has left The Agency for higher ground, and one of the co-founders, Billy Rose, left back in 2018.  The insurance company representing The Agency also recently jumped ship, which would leave the company responsible for their own legal fees and future debts – whatever those may be.

Kyle was insistent that the legal drama of all the wives be left out of the reality show that made her famous, but this story looks like it might be a little too big to hide beneath the fur of a small dog.  What will Dorit Kemsley do?!

With the addition of Garcelle Beauvais and Sutton Stracke to the RHOBH cast, will the queen of Beverly Hills be able to keep her skeletons in her couture closet, or will they all come running out holding Hermes handbags?

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills is currently filming for the next season.
