Bozoma Saint John is revealing new details about Mauricio Umansky’s buzzed-about date on the latest episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills.” In an exclusive reveal on the RHOBH After Show, Bozoma shared more about what she witnessed when she saw Mauricio out with another woman at Little Beach House. “I see Mau, sitting directly across from me, maybe ten feet away,” Bozoma recounted. “And he’s there with the girl.
My first instinct was to [tell Kyle], ‘Girl, I see your man with somebody else.'”
Bozoma revealed that she texted Kyle immediately after seeing Mauricio, and Kyle “immediately knew” that her estranged husband was on a date with “that woman,” rumored to be a Russian-born actress. Bozoma described the double-date as awkward. “He seemed a little on edge.
He didn’t seem entirely comfortable in public, especially since we were at center tables where everyone could see what was happening.”
Bozoma defended her decision to inform Kyle, even though they weren’t on the best of terms at the time. “It doesn’t matter whether or not we are on good terms,” she added. “When something is happening to you, and it is outside of this group, I feel protective.
And that’s how I felt about Mau in that moment.”
Later in the episode, Bozoma reiterated her stance. “I was ready to fight,” she said. “If Kyle had asked me to go over there, I would have.”
The cast had mixed reactions to Bozoma’s decision to tell Kyle.

Some felt it may have been more harmful than helpful. Jennifer Aydin speculated, “Maybe it was under the guise of giving her a gift, like, ‘Oh, here’s some information for you,'” while Sutton Stracke questioned if it was intended to hurt Kyle.
Jennifer added, “I think it’s hurtful because it drives home that it wasn’t just a one-off thing. He’s in a relationship with this girl.”
Sutton shared that Kyle was really hurt when she received Bozoma’s text. Erika Jayne admitted that if she had been in Bozoma’s position, she might not have shared the details because of how much the separation has hurt Kyle.
Despite the varying opinions, all the housewives acknowledged on the RHOBH After Show that Kyle’s experience was relatable. Erika shared that she had similarly been informed about her husband’s infidelity and chose to wait before reacting. Bozoma expressed that she would expect her friends to inform her immediately if they saw her boyfriend in a similar situation.
Kyle Richards appreciated the heads-up from Bozoma in the end. “I was happy that Boz reached out and told me. She really is a girl’s girl, a friend,” Kyle said.
“And not just that she told me, but in the detailed way that she did. I wanted to know all the details, and she didn’t leave anything out.”
