Alexia Nepola, a star on the “Real Housewives of Miami,” recently revealed that despite pending divorce proceedings, she and her estranged husband Todd Nepola have continued to have a physical relationship. She admitted during an appearance on the podcast “Two Ts in a Pod” that they have hooked up since Todd filed for divorce in April, and expressed that they still have a deep love and strong connection with each other. Additionally, Alexia shared that they are actively attending couples therapy in an effort to salvage their marriage, with Todd’s main concern being the publicity that comes with being married to her.
The 57-year-old reality star acknowledged that the public eye has added challenges to their marriage, with Todd struggling to handle the attention and control that comes with her fame. She suspects that he may be fearful of her having too much power in their relationship due to her celebrity status, a sentiment she believes is shared by many men in similar situations. Despite Todd’s discomfort with the spotlight, Alexia remains hopeful that they can overcome these obstacles and reconcile their relationship, as she is still deeply in love with him.
Following Todd’s filing for divorce, Alexia expressed shock and heartbreak over the end of their marriage, characterizing it as “irretrievably broken.” She sought solace in the support of her friends and family and looked ahead to better times in the future. Despite the emotional turmoil of the situation, she has maintained a positive outlook and is determined to navigate the challenges she faces in the aftermath of their separation with grace and resilience.
In the wake of the divorce filing, Alexia admitted to feeling lost and overwhelmed as she attempted to understand the reasons behind the breakdown of her marriage. Speaking with her co-host and fellow castmate on the “Ay Por Favor” podcast, she acknowledged the stages of grief she was experiencing, including anger and confusion. However, she emphasized her commitment to focusing on the positive memories of her time with Todd and remaining true to her optimistic nature as she navigates this difficult period in her life.
Alexia and Todd were married in December 2021 in a ceremony at the Eden Rock hotel in St Barths, which had initially been delayed due to COVID-19 restrictions. Recalling a special moment from their wedding, Alexia shared that a sea turtle had approached them during the ceremony, something she interpreted as a symbolic message from the universe. Seeing the sea turtle as a representation of longevity, peace, wisdom, and emotional strength, Alexia found comfort in the spiritual significance of the encounter, likening herself to a sea turtle in her ability to endure and persevere through challenges.
Despite the challenges and uncertainties that lie ahead for Alexia and Todd, she remains optimistic about the future of their relationship and is actively working towards reconciling with her estranged husband. Through therapy and a commitment to understanding and overcoming their issues, Alexia is hopeful that they can rebuild their connection and move forward together in a positive and constructive manner. As she continues to navigate this difficult chapter in her life, Alexia is supported by loved ones and remains focused on finding a path to healing and growth as she confronts the complexities of love, fame, and marriage in the public eye.
