Umansky disclosed a sexual assault from seven years ago during the Fox reality series, marking her first public admission of the incident.
During the Oct 8 Episode of Special Forces, Alexia Umansky publicly revealed she was sexually assaulted for the first time, disclosing the harrowing experience to directing staff members.
