‘Real Housewives’ Lisa Hochstein
Turns Herself In After Spy Allegations
Published
‘Real Housewives of Miami’ star Lisa Hochstein has turned herself in to authorities in Miami — and it’s all tied to a felony charge accusing her of secretly spying on her ex-husband, Lenny Hochstein.
Lisa’s attorney, Jayne Weintraub, tells TMZ the surrender is voluntary and part of a pre-arranged agreement following the charge filed earlier this week … insisting her client “has nothing to hide” as the legal process plays out.
According to docs obtained by TMZ, prosecutors allege Lisa “unlawfully and intentionally” intercepted — or tried to intercept — wire, oral, or electronic communications involving Lenny and others he spoke with.
The charge seems to stem from a March 2023 incident … notably — just a couple months before — reports surfaced claiming Lenny accused Lisa of planting a “listening device” under his car to monitor his phone calls.
Lenny pulled the plug on their 12-year marriage in May 2022, filing for divorce from Lisa … and the breakup spiraled into a bitter, very public war almost immediately.
The situation gets even messier … Lisa’s ex-boyfriend, Jody Glidden, is facing the same charge and was already taken into custody in Florida over the weekend … while Lisa had a warrant out before arranging to turn herself in.
Lisa’s legal team, along with attorneys for Glidden, has pushed back hard — telling TMZ this is all part of a contentious divorce battle and arguing the matter “does not belong in criminal court.”
Still, with felony charges now in play, what started as a nasty split has officially escalated into full-blown criminal drama.
