Real Housewives of Miami star Adriana de Moura released an official statement on her co-star Lisa Hochstein‘s arrest.
Adriana and Alexia Nepola both showed up at the place where Lisa turned herself in to offer their support to her as she got out of jail.
Reality Blurb exclusively spoke to Adriana after she showed up to support her friend to find out what she could share.
“All I can say is I was there to support her to make sure she is feeling strong for the sake of her children’s well-being,” Adriana stated.
“Lisa and I have been friends for a long time,” she continued. “We have been [there] for each other…weddings, baby showers, divorce, funerals.”
“Real friends show up when things are tough, not only when life is rosy,” Adriana concluded.
Lisa turned herself in to authorities on April 15 due to an outstanding warrant for her arrest after she and her ex-boyfriend, Jody Glidden, were accused of spying on her ex-husband, Lenny Hochstein.
Lisa’s bail was set at $5,000, and she was released quickly after she turned herself in.
“Lisa is voluntarily surrendering. She is being released on her own recognizance,” her attorney, Jayne Weintraub, told Page Six in a statement on April 15.
Lisa also spoke out to share the following: “I don’t want to let anyone distract me from my big divorce case this month. I’m focused on the well-being of my children, who have been through enough. I’ve heard nobody has been charged with eavesdropping in Miami history.”
Jody was also arrested on Saturday and released relatively quickly as well.
Lisa and Jody are facing one count each of interception of wire, oral, or electronic communications after “unlawfully and intentionally” intercepting, trying to intercept, or trying to have someone else intercept “oral statements” by Lenny and those Lenny “spoke with” between March 12 and March 31, 2023.
On April 13, Reality Blurb exclusively obtained a statement from Jayne and Howard Srebnick and Frank Gaviria, who are Defense Counsel for Jody, which said the following: “This matter is part of a contentious divorce proceeding and does not belong in criminal court.”
Jayne is the same lawyer who represented her three years ago when Lenny and his now-ex-fiancée, Katharina Nahlik, brought stalking charges and tried to get an injunction. The judge issued an order after a full trial that there was no just cause for even a temporary restriction and dismissed the case.
In May 2023, Lisa was accused of planting a “listening device” on Lenny’s vehicle, which she denied.
A report from Page Six at the time stated that Lenny had alleged Lisa had placed “at least one” listening device in his car to “access and monitor his private, non-public communications involving this litigation.”
While fans would likely love to see all of this drama playing out in front of the cameras, The Real Housewives of Miami is currently on pause ahead of its eighth season, and thus, none of this is being filmed whatsoever.
