‘RHOM’ star Lisa Hochstein accuses ex Lenny of domestic violence: ‘You may have caught this bruise’

Lisa Hochstein made a bombshell claim via social media Wednesday, alleging that her estranged husband, Lenny Hochstein, has been physically abusive to her in the past.

The “Real Housewives of Miami” star, 41, posted a mirror selfie of herself on her Instagram Stories that showed what appears 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.”

“This was almost 2 weeks old from last season,” Lisa added, noting the mark that was highlighted with a purple circle.

“You may have caught this bruise on the episode when I opened up to the women on the show about the divorce.”

Page Six has reached out to Lenny’s attorney for comment on his estranged wife’s recent claims but did not immediately hear back.

The demise of the Bravolebrity’s marriage first began to play out on Season 5 of “RHOM.”

When the cast went on a trip that season, Lisa stormed out to call her ex as they argued about whether or not his “mistress”-turned-now fiancée could spend the night in their home while she was away.

Lisa said she was speaking out because she is allegedly being “threatened” and “harassed.”

Eagle-eyed fans took to social media to point out that they had noticed the bruise on the reality star’s arm.

“Anyone notice the bruise on Lisa’s arm in the recent #RHOM do we think Lenny did this?,” one person tweeted in December 2022 alongside screenshots of Lisa in the episode.

Another added at the time, “Did no one notice these bruises on Lisa?? There is way more to the story that we don’t know ☹️. I also noticed another bruise by her hand. #RHOM.”

A third wrote, “Did anyone see the bruise on Lisa’s arm? Thats totally like someone grabbed you hard. #RHOM Concerning.”

Lisa first appeared with what looks like a bruise on her arm on Season 5 of “RHOM.”

Lisa had not addressed the speculation – until now.

The plastic surgeon, 57, once accused Lisa of being “abusive” herself via social media because she allegedly “yelled at [him] on a weekly if not daily basis” and “criticized everything [he] did.”

Lisa told Page Six in response at the time that Lenny had just made up “lies” and that she was “starting to worry” about him.

Lisa and Lenny were married for 12 years before they split.

When the former couple took their divorce battle to court, Lenny alleged in court documents that his ex had verbally assaulted him throughout their marriage.

“Upon entering the master bedroom, [Lisa] suddenly ran out of her combined bathroom and closet and surprised [Lenny] by engaging in a verbal tirade demanding to know why [Lenny] had entered the master bedroom,” he claimed via his lawyer in docs previously obtained by Page Six.

“[Lisa] started pushing [Lenny] physically which caused him to retreat, and [Lisa] continued to pursue and follow [Lenny] while yelling at him.”

The dispute allegedly took place on May 10 of this year and Lenny claimed that when the police were called, Lisa accused him of being the “aggressor.”

The “RHOM” star told Page Six in response at the time, “As we will make clear in our response filing, there is a long history of me having to call the police because of Lenny’s behavior.
