Ralph, who was married to the 49-year-old Selling Sunset star from 2010 to 2012, vanished nearly seven years ago after dropping their children off at school. Amanza has now disclosed that she received new information from the police about his whereabouts.
Appearing on the November 4 episode of Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey, as reported by The Tab, Amanza revealed that law enforcement confirmed Ralph is alive. They have identified a physical address for him, which means he is no longer classified as a “missing person.”
Fans of the Netflix reality series Selling Sunset might remember that Ralph’s disappearance occurred while Amanza was filming one of the early seasons of the show.
As Selling Sunset fans may recall, Ralph disappeared while she was filming an early season of the Netflix reality show.
“So we got a divorce when the kids were one and two, and then for seven years they would go to their dad for a week and me for a week like clockwork,” she recalled. “He was good. He was a good dad, and then he dropped them off at school on a Monday, August 26th, 2019, and never came back and he filed a paper to the courts a few months later, relinquishing all rights and responsibilities and we didn’t see that paper for like two and a half years because of COVID, and it was like the lockdown.”
“The family courts were closed, so we were like, you know, I was convinced that we could find him and maybe he needed help … It was really sad,” she continued. “My kids were seven and nine at the time. My son just turned 14 yesterday, and my daughter’s 15.”
According to Amanza, regardless of the latest update, she has gotten no closure on Ralph’s disappearance.
“Nothing. Literally nothing. I mean, he filed a paper to the court writing all these, you know, reasons why he could no longer care for the children,” she explained.
Following her divorce, Amanza dated Ryan Babel for nearly three years before splitting in 2022.
Amanza Smith has been featured on Selling Sunset since its second season in 2020.
