Amanza Smith offered an update on her ex-husband, former NFL player Ralph Brown, during an appearance on Harry Jowsey‘s podcast at the end of last year.
Nearly seven years after Ralph, the 49-year-old Selling Sunset realtor whom Amanza was married to from 2010 to 2012, disappeared after dropping their kids off at school, Amanza revealed that she recently heard from the police about her former spouse.
On the November 4 episode of Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey, via The Tab, Amanza shared that she’d gotten confirmation that Ralph was still alive from the authorities, who told her they now have a physical address for her ex, which means he’s no longer considered “a missing person.”
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.
