Lenny Hochstein claims that estranged wife Lisa’s “egregious” allegations of domestic violence have caused his Miami-based plastic surgery practice to sustain “financial losses.”
The “boob god,” who sued the “Real Housewives of Miami” star in December 2023 for defamation, says in new court documents filed as part of their ongoing divorce that Lisa’s claims were part of a “calculated and deliberate plan” to “publicly humiliate” him and destroy his reputation and businesses.
Lenny, 57, said he’s lost “hundreds of thousands of dollars” since Lisa went public with her claims, which he has vehemently denied, and now tells the court that she can no longer “reasonably expect” to receive the financial support she’s been used to getting.
The plastic surgeon star is asking the court to sanction the Bravolebrity as well as place a gag order on Lisa to prohibit her from further defamation and harassment.
Lisa, 41, posted a mirror selfie of herself on her Instagram Stories last November that showed what appeared to be a large bruise on the middle of her arm.
“Didn’t want to have to share this. But I’m left with no choice,” she wrote over the picture before alleging, “I’m being threatened and harassed through the court system and through ‘others’ by Lenny and it needs to stop.”
Lisa added that the bruise was allegedly “2 weeks old from last season.”
“You may have caught this bruise on the episode when I opened up to the women on the show about the divorce,” she continued.
Lenny responded on Pvnew’s Instagram shortly thereafter, claiming her “lies” stem from him having moved on with fiancée Katharina Mazepa.
“She attacks me every chance she gets and I have put up with every single lie but when she accused me of being physically abusive I had enough. I am against any form of violence especially against women,” Lenny began his lengthy response in the comments section.
“I have put up with a lot but I will not sit back and allow someone to say I ever, under any circumstances, would hit a woman.”
He later publicly accused Lisa of cheating on him during their marriage.
“I was especially disheartened by the fact that she bragged about her ongoing affair at the time on multiple instances, such as days before our daughter was born and on our 10 year wedding anniversary,” he wrote on social media.
