Lisa Hochstein shared what happened behind the scenes with her ex Lenny Hochstein and his now-ex-fiancé Katharina Mazepa, and clapped back at Larsa Pippen for shading her boyfriend Jody Glidden.
On the season premiere of the Real Housewives of Miami, Larsa slammed Jody for hanging out with her ex-boyfriend Marcus Jordan, the son of NBA legend Michael Jordan. She suggested that Jody was only interested in Marcus’ last name.
Also in the episode, Lisa threw a joint birthday party for both her kids, Elle and Logan, who she shares with Lenny. At the time, Lenny had recently reconciled with his fiancé Katharina after a split. Since the season wrapped, Katharina and Lenny have parted ways again.
On Instagram, Lisa responded to a fan questioning why Lisa would throw a “fifth and a half birthday” party.
“Elle’s original party was planned and approved—then abruptly canceled when Lenny rekindled things with someone who clearly couldn’t handle the situation,” wrote Lisa, via @virtualrealitea on Instagram, seemingly referring to Katharina. “Elle was devastated. She kept asking when she’d get her party. This joint celebration was about giving both kids what they were promised. No child should have to lose out on their birthday because of an adult’s insecurity.”
In an interview with Us Weekly, Lisa clapped back at Larsa’s shade toward Jody.
“I think it was very undeserving. I think it was maybe a little calculated,” said Lisa. “I don’t think Jody’s been anything but nice and kind and there for me, such a big support to me, and I think that boundaries were crossed and lines were crossed that should not have been crossed.”
“I really think we should leave the men out of it. It’s a group of women on a Housewives show,” Lisa continued. “I just think that it almost hurt my relationship really, and that was terrible. Imagine having your partner doing you a favor by being a part of my thing and my life, and having somebody on that cast attack them. They don’t want a part of it. It did cause a lot of problems between Jody and me.”
Lisa then addressed where she and Larsa stand.
“I would definitely say that we are not texting, we’re not calling,” she said. “If I see her, of course, I’m going to be cordial. I’m not going to ignore her or turn my back to her. I think that’s what adulting is. We have to be able to be in the same room. We’re coworkers, acquaintances at best at this point right now. I don’t know what the future will hold. I just don’t think that we’re ever going to be best friends again.”
