Portia Umansky isn’t your typical teenager. In fact, she’s far from it, especially when it comes to her lifestyle – which is way more luxurious than most.

Case in point: for her 16th birthday this month, she got a Porsche Cayenne from her parents Kyle Richards and Mauricio Umansky – which TMZ reported to be worth “US$100,000 … more or less”.

Per BravoTV, her older sister Sophia Umansky documented the moment on TikTok. While some netizens commented that they couldn’t believe how quickly she’s grown, others joked about the perhaps obvious car choice, joking “Portia got a Porsche!”

Here’s what we know about Portia Umansky as she continues to emerge into the reality TV spotlight and beyond:

According to US media, Richards’ youngest daughter wants to pursue acting. “Portia is the only one who wants to act and it’s very weird for me to take her to auditions,” she told a crowd at New York culture centre 92nd Street Y back in 2018. “It takes me back in time, all [of] the sudden, I’m my mom and she’s me.”

She added, “I’ll take her to auditions and I’m sitting with all these mums and it’s really awkward too because [they’ll recognise me from] Housewives, so I’m like, ‘hello,’ I get so nervous … I’m embarrassed at how I act.”

She’s good at make-up too

Besides acting and reality TV, the 16-year-old is big into make-up. “I watch Portia do her contouring on the way to school, and I just can’t even believe what I’m seeing,” Richards told People magazine in June.

She said that her daughter learns her tips and tricks from TikTok. “Obviously [at] that age, [she] is very much into learning everything on TikTok. So my morning drive to school every day is when I get all my updates on what the cool TikTok things are.”
