I'm owning it.' I think it's fine. And I always say I'm on Mounjaro. I obviously talk to a doctor." "People who are telling me that I don't need to be on it, they don't know what they're talking about. They're not doctors," she said of the backlash. "And I think everyone needs to calm down and live their own lives. And honesty will get you far in life and lying is not fun. It's not good." Umansky added that her mother has been "very supportive of whatever decisions we make as her daughters" referring to sisters Farrah Brittany Aldjufrie , 36, Alexia Simone Umansky, 28, and Portia Umansky, 17, as per the outlet. "I am 25 years old, so I'm an adult, I can do what I want," said Umansky, adding, "And of course we have guidance from our mom, and she wasn't saying like, 'Oh, you should be on this medication.' Definitely not saying that. I think she was definitely trying to veer me away from getting on this medication, but once I spoke to doctors and she saw that that's the path I wanted to take, she was very supportive." "And yeah, I think a lot of people are saying that I have body dysmorphia and all this, and I'm like, 'Actually, no. I think I'm cute both ways. I think I was cute before and I'm cute now.' There's nothing wrong with trying to feel a little bit more confident, a little bit cuter," she added.

So if I want to feel a little cuter, why not?," reported People. Last week, The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star's daughter detailed her "dramatic hair loss situation" to fans as she revealed it began three or four weeks prior. She said, "I'm very lucky that I have so much hair, because at the rate that I've been losing hair, I'm gonna be bald in about a week." She clarified in the clip that she doesn't think her hair loss is a "direct result of the medication," but rather "a direct result of rapid weight loss because of the medication, and not eating enough vitamins, protein, all that kind of stuff," reported People.

Sophia Umansky defends use of weight loss drug Mounjaro amid backlash on social media
Sophia Umansky, daughter of reality TV stars Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky, has addressed backlash over her decision to use the weight loss drug Mounjaro. The 25-year-old spoke to People magazine, making it clear that she stands by her choice despite criticism from social media users. 'Everyone needs to calm down and live their own lives,' she said, responding to accusations that she is promoting unhealthy body standards. Umansky had previously revealed in a late April TikTok video that she was using Mounjaro, a medication approved for Type 2 diabetes, to assist with weight management. She also noted experiencing hair loss as a side effect. Critics quickly reacted online, with some claiming she was already thin and accusing her of setting a bad example. Umansky dismissed the negative comments, asserting, 'I'm an adult, I can do what I want.' She emphasized that her decision was made in consultation with a medical professional and shared that her mother, Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star Kyle Richards, has been supportive. The young television personality clarified that her motivation was not about disliking her appearance but about boosting self-confidence. 'I just think it'll help me feel a little bit more confident, a little bit cuter,' she said. Sophia joins a growing list of celebrities who have publicly acknowledged using weight loss drugs, including Amy Schumer, Tracy Morgan, and Kelly Clarkson. As the conversation around these medications continues, Umansky's response highlights a personal stance on health, body image, and autonomy.

Why US celebrity real estate agent Mauricio Umansky has his eyes on Australian property
US real estate agent Mauricio Umansky has sold billions in luxury homes, founded a global real estate company, The Agency, and starred in two successful shows Buying Beverly Hills and Real Housewives of Beverly Hills. "At my core, I'm a good salesperson because I love being an advisor to my clients," says Mauricio Umansky. Pic: Supplied Selling property is his greatest passion, and ahead of his appearance at the Australian Real Estate Conference (AREC 25), he shared his property journey and why Australian property is on his radar. What drew you to real estate? I actually got my start in the textile business, working with my father. And I learned early on some hard lessons, including the value of a cent and the fundamentals of business-inventory, customer service, supply chains, and even failure. Eventually, I realised I had a passion for something more personal: helping people find their dream homes. When I started taking real estate classes, I fell in love with the industry and its infinite possibilities. At my core, I'm a good salesperson because I love being an advisor to my clients. Whether it be fabric or real estate, I think there are skills and characteristics of a person that earns the trust of a client. This is applicable in other industries; real estate has just been the one in which I've found success. You sell some of the most expensive houses in the world, but what can someone selling a property at a much lower price learn from you? Whether you're selling a $US300,000 condo or a $US30 million estate, selling real estate is all about delivering an exceptional experience. In fact, one of our mottos at The Agency is "luxury is an experience, not a price point." It's about how you show up for your clients. Every home is someone's most valuable asset, and when you approach every transaction with the same level of care, effort, and professionalism, you build a business with longevity. 'People remember how you made them feel, not what you sold' is a motto of Umansky. Pic: SUpplied People remember how you made them feel, not what you sold. It is also important to be a true expert of your market, inventory and region. Knowledge and relationships have been the cornerstone of my business and, regardless of where an agent is at this point, these two factors are essential to growing a business at any level. You've sold some incredible houses, but what has been the most memorable sale for you? One that stands out is the sale of Prince's former home. Walking into that house, you could feel the energy. The acoustics were out of this world, every corner of that property had a story. Selling that home for me was about honouring the legacy of an icon. You are known as a disruptor in the real estate business. What frustrated you most about the traditional model and how did you take a different approach? I wanted to give back to an industry that gave me everything. I started The Agency with a goal for disrupting the industry. We founded The Agency with a key focus on collaboration, transparency, and culture. And to this day, I believe there's always room for innovation, whether that's in marketing, technology, or your team. If we're not evolving, we're falling behind. Disruption is part of our DNA and I feel there is still a lot of room for growth and disruption. This is something I am very passionate about for the greater industry right now. One of Mauricio's current listings is this 11-bed, 18-bath ski chalet is the US resort town of Vail, which has a $US78 million price tag. Pic: Supplied What do you think unsuccessful real estate agents do wrong? They underestimate the hustle. Real estate isn't a part-time job it's a full-time commitment with overtime hours. You have to treat it like a business and invest the time. It's not just about showing homes; it's about building relationships, staying consistent, and doing the work even when no one is watching. You get what you put in. Can you remember the first property that you sold? My first sale was a small condo in the Valley, around $US200,000. I remember that adrenaline rush-it was all so new, but I was hungry. Fast forward to today, I recently sold a $US22.5M property in Brentwood (Los Angeles). At the end of the day, the same principles apply. You need to listen to your client, know your market, and never stop learning. Tell us about your biggest professional setback-and how did you conquer it? Early on, I lost a big listing I thought I had in the bag. I was crushed. But it taught me humility and the importance of over-preparation. I doubled down on my work ethic, studied more, and followed up harder. That setback fueled my drive and helped shape the way I lead today and how I continue to ensure I am a true expert and advisor for the regions I represent. What is your view of the Australian luxury market? Australia is an incredibly exciting market. The luxury real estate scene is growing fast, with international interest surging. I see a strong appetite for lifestyle-driven properties. It reminds me of LA in some ways: beachfront appeal, city-meets-coastal living, and a strong global clientele. There's huge potential for collaboration and expansion. Plus, I'd LOVE to expand our Agency into Australia in the future! Mauricio Umansky will appear as a speaker at the Australian Real Estate Conference (AREC) 25 at the Gold Coast Convention and Exhibition Centre on SUnday May 25 and Monday May 26.
