Lisa Hochstein has spent ‘tens of thousands of dollars’ on excruciating divorce from Lenny

Lisa Hochstein is desperate to be divorced from her estranged husband, Lenny Hochstein.

The “Real Housewives of Miami” star has been locked in a legal battle with the plastic surgeon since he filed for divorce in May 2022 after 12 years of marriage, and she tells Page Six exclusively that he’s wearing her down financially.

“It truly saddens me that Lenny has caused me to have to spend tens of thousands of dollars in attorney’s fees that should have been conserved for our children,” Lisa says, referring to their two kids, 8-year-old Logan and 4-year-old Elle.

“I don’t understand. He’s engaged,” she adds of Lenny’s fiancée, model Katharina Mazepa. “Doesn’t he want to get divorced?”

Lisa, meanwhile, has moved on with beau Jody Glidden.

The Bravolebrity’s statement comes after Lenny hired their former attorney, Lorne Berkeley, who previously worked for the now-former couple during a 2015 lawsuit against an interior designer, to represent him in their divorce.

Lisa, 41, has filed legal documents arguing the lawyer should be disqualified given their shared history, which prompted Lenny’s attorney to fight back, describing Lisa’s efforts as a “sad attempt.”

Lisa’s attorney, Jordan Davis Modavi, tells Page Six exclusively that Lenny’s decision to hire Berkeley is nothing more than “an effort to further harm and oppress” her.

The reality star has since decided against pursuing Berkeley’s disqualification because she wants “nothing more than to end” the divorce battle and focus on their kids.

As Page Six previously reported, the estranged pair were extremely close to settling their divorce last summer, but Lenny withdrew the offer.

“This is just another example of Lenny doing everything possible to financially and emotionally suffocate Lisa instead of complying with the financial terms to which he previously agreed,” Modavi says.

Lenny, 57, however, claims to Page Six that Lisa has “refused to sign the paperwork” because she “needs to be the victim.”

“This should have all been done a long time ago but then couldn’t manufacture another false victim story,” he says.

The duo’s divorce has been acrimonious from the start, with both Lenny and Lisa hurling abuse and infidelity allegations at each other. Lenny has since sued Lisa for defamation and has claimed her “egregious” allegations have caused him and his medical practice financial harm.

“I have never hit Lisa, nor any woman at any time, in my life,” Lenny says.
