As of press time, Kyle’s carousel had received more than 200,000 “likes” and over a thousand comments from fans, friends, and family. Kyle’s big sister Kathy Hilton was among those who sent emotional congratulations to Alexia and Jake.
“I am crying tears of joy,” Kathy commented. “My heart is full of happiness for our family.”
The post also received love from Kathy’s youngest daughter, Nicky Hilton; family friend Kris Jenner; and multiple Bravolebs, including The Real Housewives of Orange County alum Meghan King and The Real Housewives of Miami’s Kiki Barth.
How long have Alexia and Jake been together?
Alexia and Jake began dating about five years ago but have known each other since childhood. Kyle confirmed this in a June 4 Amazon Live stream, when she was asked if Alexia was “getting engaged soon.”
“She’s not [engaged] yet but I do think that’s going to happen. I really do,” Kyle said at the time. “Alexia has been friends with Jake since second grade — best friends — but they’ve been dating for four years, almost five years now. They are a very, very, very cute couple and they’re great together. And we just love him so much. And [Jake] also happens to have the same birthday as me, which is funny.”
Alexia's dad, Mauricio Umansky, shows love to Jake
Alexia and Jake fueled engagement rumors in early 2024 after Alexia revealed she had left her parents’ Encino home and got a new place with her beau. Since then, the couple have shared regular looks inside their cozy abode, which they share with their adorable cat, Sashimi.
The RHOBH daughter spoke about her romance in a March interview with Entertainment Tonight, alongside her dad, Mauricio Umansky, and her sisters Farrah Brittany and Sophia Umansky. Alexia said being on reality TV wasn't always easy, especially in the wake of her parents' split; however, she was excited to share her romantic life with fans.
“My relationship is amazing and, you know, whatever happens in the future is what happens,” she said while promoting Season 2 of Buying Beverly Hills. “Everything that we’re going through is human and, obviously, I hope for the best. I’m just going to take that day by day, as well, and I’m excited for people to get to know Jake a little bit better.”
“We love Jake,” Mauricio added.
