MIAMI, FLORIDA: The split between 'Real Housewives of Miami' ex-couple Lisa and Lenny Hochstein has escalated into a messy affair with a recent revelation emerging in their defamation case. Lisa's estranged husband has come forward with allegations that his ex-wife "consistently hit" him throughout their marriage.

According to the latest court documents obtained by US Weekly, Lisa had been physically abusing Lanny. The document stated, "There are too many times over the course of the marriage to list each instance of physical abuse by [Lisa] against [Lenny]... However, to be clear, at no point in time did [Lenny] ever strike or hit back at [Lisa] or push or initiate any physical harm to [Lisa] in any way."

Lenny further shared with the outlet, "That’s the reality of it. I never hit her and she hit me countless times. Everything that she has accused me of is typically her behavior not mine." Bravo star filed a defamation case against his estranged wife Lisa after she accused him of domestic violence. However, Lenny denied the accusation and claimed the Bravo star had "lie[d] when she alleged last month that he had abused her."

Lisa then took to her Instagram Story and showed a bruise on her arm. In the post, she claimed, "Didn’t want to have to share this. But I’m left with no choice. I'm being threatened and harassed through the court system and through 'others' by Lenny and it needs to stop." Despite Lisa's claims, Lenny maintained his previous stance and once again denied allegations of hitting his estranged wife.
