“Real Housewives of Miami” star Todd Nepola is ready for his day in court. Todd has filed a lawsuit against Bravo and NBCUniversal, claiming the network deliberately lied about his finances during seasons 6 and 7 to add drama to his storyline with ex-wife Alexia Nepola.
Todd Says Bravo Knew the Claims Were False
According to TMZ, Todd alleges the network painted him as “broke” despite the fact he’s actually worth around $100 million. He says he’s never bounced a check, missed a payment, or experienced financial trouble—and yet the show allegedly made it seem like he was drowning in debt to make Alexia’s storyline more explosive.
The lawsuit points to multiple episodes where castmate Adriana de Moura allegedly spread false rumors, including that Todd’s business was failing and he might have to break his lease and downgrade his apartment. Todd’s legal team says these claims were not just exaggerated—they were knowingly false.
In fact, Todd claims he purchased over $115 million in real estate during filming, financed through legitimate bank loans. The suit argues that Bravo and NBCUniversal “knew or should have known” the financial rumors were fake but went along with it anyway for TV drama.
Todd is now asking the court to set the record straight—and, by the sound of it, he’s not backing down. NBCUniversal has not yet responded to the lawsuit.

I didn’t think he was broke. Most people assume if you rent property that you don’t have the money to purchase but Todd is smart and uses his money to purchase income producing assets instead of using his money on personal property that will not provide a return.
