Here’s one less thing for Mauricio Umansky to worry about. The former ABC executive suing him over damage to a $12 million mansion has decided to drop the lawsuit. It’s a rare win for the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star.
This whole thing started when Mau’s company, UMRO Realty Corp, recommended “tenants from hell” to rent a $12 million mansion from Stephen McPherson, the former president of ABC. Allegedly, when the tenants got into the house, they started stealing priceless items and trashed the home, causing upwards of $1 million in damages. They even decapitated an Emmy!
A change of heart

At the time, Stephen claimed that Mau’s company knew those tenants were problematic but recommended them anyway. Thus, he felt like they were on the hook for all of the damage to the mansion.
Now, according to Radar Online, Stephen has filed a request to dismiss the allegations. It’s a surprising move, considering just last year, he was still pushing to get justice for his damaged home.
“All I know is that in (UMRO’s) recommendation, they said that they had worked with them for years and that they were vouching for them,” Stephen told the outlet in October 2023.
During that interview, Stephen went into great detail bout how so many precious things in the home were damaged. Some items were stolen, and most of those things weren’t easily replaceable. You can’t just go to HomeGoods and get a new Emmy.
Then, the situation got even worse when their lease expired. They tried to stay in the house without paying rent. Truly, they sound like nightmare tenants from beginning to end, and Stephen recently said that he was frustrated that they got away with it.
“The sad thing about all this is that the tenants themselves were never brought to justice and it’s really horrific and unfortunate,” Stephen expressed.
Now, with the lawsuit being dismissed, it sounds like there won’t be any justice for the broken Emmy and the damaged mansion — unless Mauricio and Stephen settle this outside of court. Either way, we can file this one away as “rich people problems.”
