MIAMI, CALIFORNIA: 'Real Housewives of Miami' cast members Lisa Hochstein and Julia Lemigova are embroiled in a dramatic feud sparked by a contentious parenting comment made by Lisa.

Lisa is now claiming that Julia is purposefully creating turmoil in anticipation of the 'Miami' Season 6 reunion.

The dispute originated when Lisa, 51, attended Julia's F**k Cancer party, raising concerns that she had left her children at home following a police incident with her estranged husband in May 2023.

During a heated exchange, Lisa retorted that Julia, who tragically lost a son named Maximilien under suspicious circumstances in 1999, has "three baby daddies." While Julia initially didn't hear the comment, it later came to her attention, leaving her in shock at Lisa's outburst.

Julia clapped back at Lisa sharing, "Wow – Thank you for bringing this to my attention, I was so taken aback by Lisa’s rage that I did not even hear her hateful words.”

Lemigova also called Lisa's attempt to frame her children's births as anything other than joyful blessings “disgusting and impermissible.”

"Attempting to frame the way my children came into this world as anything but joyful blessings is disgusting and impermissible, the unspeakable viciousness of invoking the memory of my late son in an attempt to attack me is simply unforgivable.”

Lisa has since admitted to apologizing to Julia for her remarks, but claims to have been "ignored" by her co-star. Accusing Julia of intentionally escalating the situation for the upcoming reunion, Lisa emphasized the calculated nature of the disagreement.

In a detailed message, Lisa expressed frustration, stating, “I asked you (Julia) to take the post down after you said you didn’t want this to escalate any further, but now it’s posted, and I believe this is your intention.”

Lisa accused Julia of taking their issues to social media as a deliberate move to garner extra attention for herself just before the 'RHOM' cast gathers with Andy Cohen to film the Season 6 reunion.

Who is ‘RHOM’ star Julia Lemigova married to? 

In a sneak peek of the next episode of The 'Real Housewives of Miami,' Julia Lemigova shared a fascinating revelation about her journey to marriage with tennis legend Martina Navratilova.

The 51-year-old disclosed that she nearly walked down the aisle nine times before ultimately marrying Martina in 2014. Despite the numerous engagements, Julia and Martina have sustained a relationship spanning over 15 years, originating from their initial meeting in 2000 and a serendipitous reconnection eight years later at the French Open.

Lemigova and Navratilova began dating in 2006 and married in Dec 2014 in New York City. The couple share two homes in Miami.

How did ‘RHOM’ star Julia Lemigova’s son die? 

Julia found herself in a romantic involvement with financier Édouard Stern shortly after his divorce. While they did not formalize their relationship through marriage, they welcomed a son named Maximilien in October 1999.

However, the narrative took a devastating turn, as Maximilien tragically passed away at the Necker Children's Hospital in Paris in March 2000, merely five and a half months old and under Stern's care.

A concealed autopsy report uncovered unsettling details, revealing traces of diazepam—a sedative used for anxiety, muscle spasms, and seizures—in his bloodstream, according to The Sun.

The medical examination further suggested that the infant had been violently shaken, potentially succumbing to shaken baby syndrome.

The circumstances surrounding Maximilien's death remained shrouded in mystery. Even the Bulgarian nanny, Maya, who was overseeing the baby at the time, disappeared after the tragic event.
