Months after initial split speculation, Farrah Aldjufrie has now confirmed that she has broken up with her fiancé Alex Manos.
Aldjufrie, who is the daughter of Kyle Richards, confirmed the sad news during an interview with ANDcalling the split “a slow unraveling of two people who love each other.”
“A very sensitive subject to talk about on television, but it is what it is,” the 35-year-old reality star said while promoting Buying Beverly Hills with her father-in-law Mauricio Umansky and her sisters Alexia and Sophia. “It was really hard.”
“Throughout the season, I had to deal with a lot of things, obviously, trying to focus on my career, with so much going on in the family, in my own personal relationship.
“I guess it was kind of a slow disappearance of two people who love each other very, very much, but who actually didn’t agree on certain things.
Months after initial split speculation broke out, Farrah Aldjufrie has officially confirmed that she and her fiancé Alex Manos have called it quits.
“We have decided to separate, unfortunately, but no bad blood, and I’m just focusing on myself and my family. I don’t have – and I’m working – the energy to think about anything else right now.
Farrah’s engagement was a topic of discussion during a recent preview for the second season of Buying Beverly Hills.
In a scene featuring Kyle Richards and her ex-husband Mauricio Umansky, Richards asks her spouse, “Did Farrah mention anything about Alex?”
“I try not to worry about it too much, not to ask,” he replies. “She likes to hide her emotions a lot.”
“She always has,” Kyle replied. “I’ll test it a little and ask her, and then I can tell if she’s in the mood or not; sometimes she quickly opens up and shares. Other times she will be very brief in her response and I say “OK.” I try to respect that. It’s just difficult. I just want her to be happy.
In a confessional, Mauricio admits that he felt like Farrah’s relationship with Alex was “at a standstill.”
“I know Farrah wants a fairy tale, but the reality is that marriages are hard, and I’m really happy and proud that Farrah is taking her time to figure out what to do, because marriage is a huge commitment and even the best. Sometimes marriages don’t work.
