Alexia Nepola revealed that she and her ex-husband, Todd Nepola, were back together on Sunday’s episode of Watch What Happens Live.
As her longtime friend and Real Housewives of Miami castmate, Marysol Patton, 59, reacted to the reconciliation and suggested that Lisa Hochstein, 44, was still hooking up with her ex-boyfriend, Jody Glidden, Alexia, 59, revealed how Martina Navratilova, 69, reacted to the rumors of an affair between Julia Lemigova, 54, and a Haitian mortician, and suggested Dorit Kemsley, 50, and Tamra Judge, 59, were the “least intimidating” housewives.
“I’m very happy. Things are much better. We’re in a good place, and love wins. We figured it out,” Alexia shared of her and Todd, 53, on the September 13 episode of WWHL.
While Marysol had been vocal about her dislike for Todd for years, Alexia defended her past comments, saying she was a “good friend” and admitting that Todd ultimately “supported the fact that Marysol was a good friend to me.”
As for Marysol, who was also a Clubhouse guest on Sunday, she said she was pleasantly surprised by the recent interactions she’d had with Todd.
“I sweated it out for a while. Like she really wanted me to get together with him cuz she had moved forward and they were in a relationship, obviously, and made up, and I said, ‘Listen. You’ve done your canoodling, and you’re talking, but I haven’t, so I’m a little uncomfortable.’ But we met accidentally one night, and he was so lovely, and he was very nice to me, and he actually apologized and said, ‘You know you were right.’ I was shocked,” Marysol shared.
Then, after being asked to name three nice things about Todd, Marysol named two.
“He spent a lot of money on a really nice house for her to live in. Five big ones. He was really nice the first time I saw him and said that I was right about all the things I said, and he shouldn’t have done those things to Alexia, so I thought that was huge.”
Moving on to Julia, the Haitian mortician, and the coffee machine she allegedly gifted him, Alexia said the cast only “kind of” learned the truth.
“We kind of did. We’re friendly with Julia,” she explained of her castmate, who insisted that she did not cheat on Martina with the mystery man.
Looking back on Martina’s reaction to the rumor, Alexia explained that Martina was “above that.”
“She was not gonna entertain that. She’s a very secure woman. They’re very confident. They’re good in the relationship, and it’s something that happened a long time ago,” Alexia shared. “Martina was aware of it. And you know, she has different priorities. As you get older and you go through so much as she does, you don’t sweat the small stuff.”
Regarding her relationship with Stephanie Shojaee, 41, whom she faced off with throughout season seven, Alexia confirmed, “We’ve become friends.”
“She also apologized about some things that she said that weren’t nice, and we’re actually in a really good place,” Alexia shared.
After admitting that she was “definitely closer to Julia” than Guerdy Abraira, 48, Alexia was questioned about the “most boring” housewives city.
“[Marysol] has always said [The Real Housewives of New York City], the new [RHONY] is very boring,” she replied, throwing her friend under the bus.
“Why you blaming me? That’s her answer,” Marysol clarified. “She always does this to me. By the way, I didn’t even watch the new [RHONY]. I said that’s what they say on the blogs.”
Alexia then said that when it came to the housewives who talked a big game but were the least intimidating in real life, those honors went to Dorit and Tamra.
“Maybe Dorit … That’s a compliment. You know, Tamra also, but I feel like Dorit is also misunderstood because I actually did think the same as everyone else, but then I’ve gotten to know her, and she’s actually very kind and very nice and approachable,” Alexia shared.
As for who owed her an apology, Alexia said Marysol likely felt that Adriana de Moura, 60, did.
“Or she owes you one too,” Marysol replied as Alexia expressed allegiance to Marysol.
“I’ve seen her, and we’re cordial, but she knows that my friendship is with Marysol, so it’s kind of strange,” she described.
Then, after Alexia shared that she related to Teresa Giudice, 54, in “many aspects” and denied that Lisa and Jody, who split earlier this year, were living together, stating that they were “friendly but they’re not in a relationship anymore,” Marysol said she’d heard that they were “dating.”
“She did tell me a couple of times she fell on his pee-pee. But that was a few months ago. I don’t know what today is like,” Marysol revealed.
She also weighed in on Julia’s mortician drama.
“Julia said that it was a combination of stories, like there was a Haitian mortician. There was a coffee machine. But it wasn’t the same person,” she shared.
“So there was more than one?” Alexia asked.
“Yeah,” Marysol confirmed. “So … Right. Yikes.”
