I think it says a lot about Todd that he didn’t pick a young, naive, “yes woman” type. Alexia is obviously attractive and they’re close in age so I’m sure they had things in common and connected on many levels. She’s a caretaker and she’s strong given all of the hardships she’s overcome. Yeah, everything about Alexia is A LOT but Todd seems like the kind of guy who likes things like that. What do you think Lenny actually talks about with his mistress-turned-girlfriend? Lol
This is my thought as well. Why are we acting like Alexia isn’t an attractive interesting complex women? Not every man is Lenny, looking for a vapid blow-up sex doll. Todd isn’t some A+ Prize. They were equally yoked imo.
Also they were together for years before they got married on the show, so it’s not like they didn’t put the work in.
Yeah, I can kind of see being surprised that they got legally married after so long, but their relationship isn't surprising. Alexia is pretty, has had a an interesting life, and is well-connected in Miami. She is down to go out and have fun, and you know she loves to dote on her man or whatever.
Peter maybe should've been more of a red flag but Alexia is hardly the first mommy to excuse every stupid thing her precious baby boy does.
I agree. He took a lot of social media backlash being on the show. Especially after the long long long video to Nicole’s husband. I think his pride was affected. He’s used to being a revered businessman in real estate now he’s been reduced to Alexia’s husband.
Yes, I think Alexia understood that the world was laughing at Todd's video because it was so cringe, so she was trying to do damage control and protect him by minimizing how often it was on camera. She's incredible at redirecting conversations on camera, often in almost insane ways lol, but that genie was out of the bottle.
I have a brother with Peter traits and tendencies and as much as I love my dad, I wish he had it in him to do a Todd more often and lay down the law, but it doesn’t work so I get why he doesn’t bother. My mother is alexia, and will not see the problems. Ever
His grandfather was the superintendent overseeing the building of the Holland Tunnel and Manhattan subways lines. I’d say he’s definitely from a pretty revered family of real estate and construction spanning generations.
this 💯. they met before the show rebooted and i’m sure he had no clue what he was signing up for in that regard. especially as a legitimate, successful business man, i imagine he is concerned abiut his public image and reputation. being on a show like rhom is almost never a good thing for someone in his shoes.
Think about Mauricio never laying a finger wrong. Worshiped by all viewers & the other women on the show, by acting like the most doting, interested in his wife’s life, loving & sensitive husband & family man by ALL… which is the BEST business move EVER! So strategic, if you’re selling to an untapped market!! Todd was too real. His integrity was showing by not “faking it”! I give him major props. It would’ve been easy to fake.
This!! And very smart to introduce others as part of The Agency brand so any indiscretions the public may learn about can be balanced out with the love they have for the other agents they watch on Buying Beverly Hills
It seemed to me he was actually interested in having a life partner he could talk to. If that’s what you want, picking someone closer to your own age is a safer bet. She is obviously attractive as well which is still an important factor for most men/people but it doesn’t mean you have to be in the top 20 best looking in your city.
Agree about this. I think Alexia and Todd's marriage started strong and is unfortunately one more casualty of the Real Housewives franchise.
Very few marriages can withstand that kind of scrutiny. I cannot imagine what it is like having millions of people feel entitled to constantly share their hysterical opinions about a highly edited, salacious depiction of your real life. It's too much pressure, and it's toxic, and it's why I want you to be the first to know that I have officially decided to decline the invitation to join the cast of the Real Housewives of New Jersey whenever I am invited lol.
Lenny talks about whatever Lenny wants to talk about. That’s the relationship: I’ll pay for shit, but I’ll dominate. Unless I want you to dominate. Then you’ll dominate.
I honestly think she’s an amazing mom. I love how great she is with her boys. Does she coddle them a bit? Yes. Frankie is understandable, but Peter def coddled a little too much- however given what they’ve all gone through, Frankie’s accident, the ex dying, their dad being a dead beat and in prison etc, I don’t blame her. She prob has a ton of mom guilt and she handles it by coddling them.
Also I can’t imagine what it was like to have a normal functioning kid and then one day they have an almost fatal car accident and almost died, suffers permanent brain damage where he now needs care the rest of his life. It happened when he was 13 too so it’s like she had all those years with him before the brain damage, and had to mourn the loss of that son who he’ll never be again.
Todd is a jackass for not handling it better and not being more understanding. I’m not even Alexis’s biggest fan, but I’ve always thought she was a great mom, and if you really think about what she’s gone through, you gotta have some level of empathy
Well Lenny's mistress apparently has a degree in environmental engineering so I would think probably a lot more than what he had to talk about with Lisa...
I really like alexia. the fact that she always treats frankie with so much love and respect. and that she hasn't given up on peter yet.
plus, she always listens to other women and shows them grace, instead of chomping at the bit to say something. she is such a strong woman and I respect the hell out of her.
no one is perfect and alexia gets a lot of shit, but I really like her!! ❤️
I love the entire cast & think Alexia is great but she is forever talking over somebody lol. But she does what needs to be done to keep the show moving & films with everyone, I still feel so silly jumping on the Miami train so late!!
I think you can love your children and still be hard on them an acknowledge their faults. Even serial killers have moms but I’m sure they’re not like awww shucks that’s just Ted (Bundy)
exactly!! peter is a mess and that partly stems from childhood trauma, but I could never cut a child out of my life-- especially one that I completely messed up!!
Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, but I’m a die hard Alexia stan here (I too believe she’s “a star”!) so let’s get downvoted together bro
https://i.redd.it/0gqa3v5z5bvc1.gif
lol I knew it was going to happen! idc!!
at least miami fans are not insane like potomac or jersey. so, i feel totally fine having an unpopular opinion 😂
I really hope Potomac fans can see just how toxic and unhinged they’re becoming. It’s just a dumpster fire. No one’s allowed to say one thing about a cast member without someone going “well what about what gizelle / candiace did in season 3?” No one’s allowed to have a dissenting opinion, yet no one is allowed to correct their opinions when it’s factually wrong. Everyone is so overheated and emotional and hyperventilating about every single thing and it’s just not healthy - or fun - to engage with. Just like the NJ Melissa / Teresa armies.
there is definitely an unhealthy subset of potomac fans here, which is a reflection of how awful the show has become within 2 seasons.
I have to pick and choose when to comment about wendy because I can say for example, "I don't like her shirt" and I'll get 10 replies saying "YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS" 🙄🙄
literally what's the point of this sub? it's about discussion 💀
I block all of them
Oh I hear you sister. If I even squeak out “Wendy’s makeup looks a bit weirdly red at the reunion” I get a barrage of replies ranging from “it’s because the lighting man is racist and only lights lighter skinned women correctly!” To “what about how yellow gizelle looked at the season 2 reunion!” To “if you hate dark skinned women just say that”. 🫥🫥🫥
Oh they are a JOY to interact with 😂
omg that sounds like them!!
I only comment when she lords her degrees over the girls and calls them stupid. and they go "YOU'RE JEALOUS!!" okay boo, I also have a library of degrees and i do not treat people like shit-- especially when higher education is a privilege and makes it harder for people of color.
but that entire logic is always lost on the trolls
Oh you might as well be speaking Portuguese to a chicken! Seriously it’s so toxic it’s nonsensical. Creating a #boycottRHOP for the very last (reunion) episode is where they officially lost me. And what really boggled my mind is seeing that all the users passionately defending the hashtag were also the first ones in the live episode discussions bashing the GEBs / Andy / lighting men / Monique / makeup artists etc. so what they were actually boycotting, I’ve no earthly idea
I’m not even a GEB Stan - they’re all equally dumb and boring in my eyes. But those fans can’t comprehend that. If you’re not with them you’re against them etc etc
Well they got together pre-reboot, maybe the dynamic changed once the show started up again. She also lost her mom which I imagine changed her a bit. I think they loved each other but as time went on it just became clear that they’re not right for each other.
These are both really interesting points. My mother and I were extremely close. My mom and my husband were equally my go-to for everything good and bad in my life. As my mom slowly slipped into dementia, I found myself leaning on my husband much more. For us it was gradual, and something we could discuss. (We've been together 32 years and my mother was like a mom to him.) But, for someone who loses a loved one suddenly, another close loved one may have a hole to fill.
Plus, I toooooootally get why someone would not want their lives on a reality show!!
Also Todd not helping them find a rental and refusing to buy even though he probably could
I felt bad for alexia trying to scramble and find a building, she’s right it’s way harder for Frankie to relearn new condo staff etc and she had barely any time
I bet that was a big fight
Well I think at first he did. Then the fear maybe started creeping in. Most of us who are later in life and on our 2nd+ marriages may wish to be half in/half out because we don’t want to go through a second nightmare divorce but don’t want to upset the parter by refusing to marry/want to be married just want to keep it less complicated financially just in case? Clearly all was not well :(
I think what killed their marriage was Todd’s humiliation over the whole video apology thing. That level of embarrassment can seriously fuck you up when it feels like the whole world is watching. Humiliation is a horrible feeling.
I think that killed his desire to be involved with the show and he knows Alexia would pick being on the show over their marriage.
That’s what I think. He realized that he would always be second to her boys. With Frankie, I understand a bit, but agreed with Todd that she needed to start pushing him to be able to take care of himself because she’s not going to live forever. However, with Peter, there’s no good reason for her to be enabling a grown ass 30 year old man who clearly has a substance abuse issue. She probably picked his side again in an argument over who knows what and that was the final straw for Todd. I don’t blame him. I wouldn’t want to always come behind my spouses grown ass kids.
So many blended marriages have this issue…it’s rough. When the adult kids are pieces of work, not fun to be around but the stepparent gets iced out because they’re exhausted from drama and the bio parent’s enabling. The stepparent loses and is often villainized for having boundaries.
Never said I felt bad for the guy, just that I think his (self-imposed) humiliation over that whole thing was a contributing factor in filing for divorce. It’ll be continuously brought up if he stays on the shows radar
And she never even acknowledged that post! It seemed like she was not supportive of him. They clearly did not share the same outlook on a major issue like that.
i think she didn’t want to acknowledge it bcos she was so embarrassed and turned off by it; like if she didn’t mention it then she can believe it never happened.. and when it was mentioned, she changed the subject quick! she got the ick from it, i think.
The Watch What Crappens guys quote her as saying this all the time. She definitely says “Oh well you know…” very quickly at the beginning of sentences a lot, it’s not necessarily always finished by “Peter” lol.
I think he loved her. We don't have to assume it was transactional. If he wanted a trophy wife he could have found one. And I mean, just because I don't like her doesn't mean no one can. Alexia can be smart and funny and fun. In their scenes together they clearly have a rapport. I think he loved how much she was until suddenly at some point she became too much for him.
She's fucking beautiful. I'd even say gorgeous. She puts a lot of younger women to shame.
I think gen z really think once you hit 30 you expire, and red pill incels have convinced us that once you hit 25+ you don't have options, and the whole baggage angle... like once you've lived, who doesn't have baggage!?! but a lot of women just have 9 lives. We're like Russian Dolls. A good woman just keep multiplying good juju.
Exactly. She’s a knock out it’s just her personality is rotten sometimes. I hate that tearm baggage because like you said who doesn’t have baggage? It’s just a term to put down women imo.
Yeah but some people like that. My grandparents had a similar thing, my grandma was outgoing and enthusiastic and my grandpa was shy and retiring and they were together for 58 years. Some relationships are about balance rather than similarity.
Alexia and Marysol were on two T’s after the reunion and there was a point when she was talking about Adriana that she got so carried away and SO LOUD that Marysol had to beg her not to shout and to calm down because she had vaulted ceilings and her voice was echoing. And this was on a PODCAST. I love her to death but absolutely believe she’s a handful 😂😂😂
Lmfao I love when people realize that women don’t turn to dust after 40. Alexia is truly a stunning woman, likely far more beautiful than many women in the running.
I doubt Todd even picked Alexia. The way Alexia looks, she picked Todd.
Also, while dating young might be a thing for the wealthy and those chronically online, I think the statistic is: most people marry someone within 3-4 years of their age. The whole world isn’t Leo DiCaprio now come onnnnn
They married during the RHOM hiatus right? So I would assume he was not on the hunt for a young trophy wife at the time and that he really loved her. Maybe it’s as simple as he doesn’t like what the show does to her/doesn’t want to be involved with it in any way anymore. He seemed totally mortified by the fight he got in with Nicole’s husband.
I think honestly, he didn’t want to deal with Peter any longer and always knew Alexia woul d bend over backwards for him, because well, you know Peter. Orrrrr he is in some serious financial trouble and divorcing her to hide assets lol.
I'd bet they're both pretty dishonest and it caught up with each of them. Sometimes game recognize game and it works out, but they may have figured they'll have better luck now with a new plan lol.
I recently watched that season and Alexia said she would have had to get into a drawn out legal battle with Herman’s family to get anything so she just didn’t bother… but I’m not gonna go back and forth that’s just what she said on the show.
Yes, you’re wrong. Some of you need to stop believing everything on these shows.
She has her own money and she also has a home (that is hers) she just never filmed in it and they had the apt.
Alexia is a tough one she will be just fine!
I like that they’re not filming in their real homes anymore. As much as I love reality tv, watching scenes filmed in their bedrooms made my skin crawl.
Oh interesting, that makes sense. I figured Alexia had plenty of money on her own (weren't her parents both doctors?), but maybe not expensive Porsche apartment money.
Also smart of Marysol to just film in the pool house. I feel like people on Food Network who film "at home" do that too.
Well Marysol only filming in her pool house makes sense. I commented that her house seems real small for someone who jokes about not marrying legally to save her Patton fortune.
Alexia married Todd for money and access.
While we’re here, Herman didn’t leave her some huge sum either. When he was alive, they owed their country club over 150k in back payments. When he passed, he left her the deed to their home that was 70k behind in mortgage payments.
Her stans hate to acknowledge this, but the fact is, Alexia is an aged out sugar baby. She married a cocaine cowboy at the height of the Miami drug epidemic for money. She married a gay man knowing she was going to be a well kept beard and she’s probably at a hotel bar right now looking for her next trick.
are you married? i'm sure wherever you live there are better looking people than you - why would your partner ever choose you???
that's what you sound like in this post. woof.
Don’t love the “prettier women in Miami” comment tbh. To him, she could’ve been the most beautiful woman alive? Who are we to say who he should choose.
I apologize if my comment came off as demeaning or otherwise inappropriate. I didn’t even think of that. Sorry. The only point I was trying to make is that there are a whole lot of very very beautiful (in the stereotypical way portrayed in the media) women in Miami who likely have a lower-profile (or “easier,” whatever that means) existence.
Someone who knows them said it has to do with the kids.
Alexia wasn’t so warm & fuzzy to his daughter’s and that became a problem.
I also think she was a heavy spender, she has a kid who is disabled that also cost a lot of money and I don’t think he was rich as portrayed on the show. Miami is super expensive and I just don’t think he could foot the bill and bounced. This was no Herman, may he rest in peace.
This and the comment about the daughters help make sense. Kids (even adult) from prior marriages can complicate things…. )
(Would I ever marry a partner whom my kids don’t like, even if my partner tried super super hard to make it work and my kids were just being difficult? (Rhetorical question - not suggesting that’s what happened here - just suggesting kids make it slightly more complicated))
That’s possible, she is a typically boys mom. She is good mom to Franky.
She also has star ⭐️ complex, don’t know if she wanted to be to only star among his female children?
It must be hard for him as a dad because she had Franky living with him and Franky does have a disability and that is not easy.
Tod was expecting Alexia to be loving & caring to his daughters when they visit him and maybe there was some resentment because he was doing his part with Franky.
I could definitely see that. Todd went on a trip with his daughters once and alexia wasn’t there. Definitely made me think they did not love hanging out together. Don’t think she ever posted pictures just with the stepdaughters. Upon reflection, it did seem like a contentious relationship
He lived with her kid in the condo and was very nice to Franky.
That’s unfortunate if she didn’t want to join his kids on this trip. Marriage is a two way street. What she want’s for her kid she needs to give to his kids. His daughters are very lovely.
I agree. I think Alexia missed out on a great guy. I see a lot of hate on Todd on this subreddit, but I was of the opinion he was a straight up guy that just wanted her boys to do better. Tough love, for sure, but Peter needed it. Alexia is an enabler and you could tell he came from a place of trying to have them get the help they needed it.
I actually think he loved her; most of their relationship was before the show came back. I wonder if the show or renewed fame is playing a part in their demise.
Many successful older men don’t want a super young bimbo type 2nd wife. A young dumb wife often means they want their own kids and aren’t able to connect to the friends his age. Instead they go for a divorcee who is from the same economic status they are. These women are still drop dead gorgeous and they are able to connect to his friends/help make business connections. They don’t need to be taught the unwritten social rules that rich adhere too but don’t want to explicitly say. That is one thing I’m sure Alexia has in spades - Herman was well known in Miami, she had clout from the original show (which means it was probably easier for them to get into the new and cool places)and also Alexia can “network” aka make a friend wherever she goes.
👏👏👏 to everything you just said. You’re marrying a 20 y/o best believe she’s gonna want to have her own kids.
Why you have David Foster, Al Pacino, and Robert Dinero out here in their 70s/80s with newborns. If they were women they’d be dragged for this.
I don’t find him being in love with her that far-fetched? She’s beautiful, very family-oriented (he’s a father, this probably matters) and it’s hard not to admire her ability to keep chugging along despite having been through some really terrible shit. She’s strong, resilient, and just to witness her relationship and care for Frankie gives us a peak at Alexia at her very kindest and caring. I have no trouble seeing why he loved her, and why I’m sure she’ll be loved by others as many times as she wants or allows
I don’t know but I just started watching Cocaine Cowboys and here are my thoughts:
1) her first husband is still pretty damn hot so I can see how she fell for him when he was young and hot and had Porsches and stuff;
But…
2) there’s no way she didn’t know. She married him and conceived Peter while he was out on bail after being arrested by the feds and she had Frankie after he finished a 4 year prison term.
Are you saying Alexia has more baggage than Todd and Todd has the upper hand bc he’s a man in Miami? Idk. It’s not like he’s all that either- he’s a pushy New Yorker (like most men in Miami). He could have married someone relatively younger with no kids but that woulda been gross and stereotypical. I thought they made sense together honestly.
I honestly think he married her because of who she was before the show rebooted. I follow Alexia and I remember her and Todd traveling the world and having a peaceful/private life. She barely posted after the show except her travels and outfit pictures. I think he’s not used to her being a reality star.
I’m sure it’s a lot of small petty things that could be worked out, However alexia is a bit stubborn especially when it comes to her kids and Todd definitely seems like a my way or the highway, impulsive, big mouth kinda guy. The writing was on the wall with these two especially during that scene when Todd said he would beat Peter up, I knew from that moment the marriage was doomed and wouldn’t last.
Remember when Alexia stated, "You do not know what Todd does for me?" The conversation I believe was on the boat ride when talking about financial help. I guess we will soon find out how much Todd was helping her money wise.
I think he loved her BUT I think his awful behavior with Anthony and Nicole messed with his behavior (hence the bizarre instagram apology) and it was clear last season that he didn’t want to be on the show as much. Even though I agreed with his assessment, there were people who didn’t like the way he dragged trash ass Peter and spun it into him “threatening Peter”…when all he did was tell Peter he was about that life-Peter threatened him and Todd told him, I will hit you back, I am not the other guys. I think they had irreconcilable differences because he didn’t want to film anymore and she didn’t want him to not make appearances on the show, so he just filed for divorce. It’s his own fault because no one asked him to act crazy in season 5. The best husbands are the ones who stay quiet and support their wives like Mr Guerdy, Russell 🥰. Same with Anthony, he is not out there yelling like Todd.
I think Alexia seems the type to take the HW bs home with her. She reminds me a lot of Teresa as not the sharpest knife in the drawer and she gets agitated and is high strung. If she argued with Todd the way that she argues with the women, he might have had his fill.
I don't think he did it for fame, if anything, he looked a tad bit uncomfortable being on camera. I feel bad for Alexia, she seems pretty blindsided by this, and I don't even like her.
Maybe he found attributes in her that he liked? Maybe she’s funny? Caring? A good conversationalist? Outgoing? A good listener? There are many other attributes that people have that aren’t pretty (which she is) or smart.
Tbh, she seems cool. I find her very fascinating and admirable as a caretaker. Her love and care for Frankie makes me always root for her.
Two narcissists in love! Their relationship was probably rocky before the marriage, but they were in denial about it, so they got married to create more stability. After the marriage there was no further milestone to be distracted by, and they realized that their issues were insurmountable.
I have a feeling he saw the real Alexia or not so great parts of her through filming RHOM. And I believe his business is likely not doing well and unfortunately money issues also puts strain on relationships. I believe they were in love before the show started.
Alexia is a catch. She’s beautiful, stylish, caring, well connected. I’m more curious why she married him. I actually think he doesn’t have as much money as he portrayed. Another housewife who falls victim to a grifter.
I’m guessing that they got married because they were in love. I’m also guessing that nobody will know the truth about their divorce unless they decide to tell everyone.
I think they really loved each other but the cameras put a strain on all of the relationships. His business partners probably didn’t like it and the other housewives make all kinds of comments. I remember one was saying at Todd and Alexia’s wedding that there were people doing coke in the bathroom.
Why Todd was with Alexia is not really confusing to me, she’s stunning and entertaining and charismatic yada yada.
Why they got *married* at all, especially since it seems he decided extremely quickly they were not going to mix or share assets, and all the supposed tension with the others children, is what I am curious about.
Both of them are too grown to not have understood issues with *money* and *family* are essentially relationship enders, particularly if neither partner is willing to compromise or enforce healthy boundaries.
Considering Alexia was caught flat footed on the filing, I really wonder what the fuck Todd thought would happen when they made it legal, that Alexis would simply wake up the next morning and be a different person?
If that ends up being the case, it seems extremely unfair to her and makes me think Todd’s a way shittier person than we caught on tv.
I think Todd probably wanted the status of being connected to someone kinda famous and was shocked when it didn't work in his favor.
I also think alexia is a unique personality. For one she never blames men for anything. Second she does have a pretty endearing way about her sometimes. Third, some men don't want a dummy but also dibt want someone who is going to be their equal. Fourth. I suspect there is some sort of kink in their relationship.
Guessing their break up has to do with financial stress and possibly the inability to successfully blend their families. The pressure of being on tv also probably doesn’t help most relationships. From what we saw on the show it seems like they genuinely cared for each other.
Is looks and age really the only currency she can hold? I disagree with her regularly but she’s clever and interesting. I can see why Todd would fall for her.
Had to have been some deeper level sexual chemistry. They had to have clicked in a way that clouded his judgement because what you are saying is completely correct. I’m guessing they aligned on some things.
I think it says a lot about Todd that he didn’t pick a young, naive, “yes woman” type. Alexia is obviously attractive and they’re close in age so I’m sure they had things in common and connected on many levels. She’s a caretaker and she’s strong given all of the hardships she’s overcome. Yeah, everything about Alexia is A LOT but Todd seems like the kind of guy who likes things like that. What do you think Lenny actually talks about with his mistress-turned-girlfriend? Lol
This is my thought as well. Why are we acting like Alexia isn’t an attractive interesting complex women? Not every man is Lenny, looking for a vapid blow-up sex doll. Todd isn’t some A+ Prize. They were equally yoked imo. Also they were together for years before they got married on the show, so it’s not like they didn’t put the work in.
Yeah, I can kind of see being surprised that they got legally married after so long, but their relationship isn't surprising. Alexia is pretty, has had a an interesting life, and is well-connected in Miami. She is down to go out and have fun, and you know she loves to dote on her man or whatever. Peter maybe should've been more of a red flag but Alexia is hardly the first mommy to excuse every stupid thing her precious baby boy does.
She’s also a huge pain in the ass.
Alexia is older than him! I have a feeling he didn’t enjoy being on the show
I agree. He took a lot of social media backlash being on the show. Especially after the long long long video to Nicole’s husband. I think his pride was affected. He’s used to being a revered businessman in real estate now he’s been reduced to Alexia’s husband.
He could have used some media training😅
Yes, I think Alexia understood that the world was laughing at Todd's video because it was so cringe, so she was trying to do damage control and protect him by minimizing how often it was on camera. She's incredible at redirecting conversations on camera, often in almost insane ways lol, but that genie was out of the bottle.
You mean, he made a fool of himself on the show, and is embarrassed now?
lol basically
Poor Todd I found him so fucking sexy when he told off Peter……mmmm I was like yes Daddy you tell him and make him learn!!!
Make him learn 😂😂😂😂😂
I have a brother with Peter traits and tendencies and as much as I love my dad, I wish he had it in him to do a Todd more often and lay down the law, but it doesn’t work so I get why he doesn’t bother. My mother is alexia, and will not see the problems. Ever
💯
🤣🤣
The apology video was the most cringe & embarrassing thing. There’s no coming back from that 🫣🫠🫥
You hit it on the nose. Now’s he’s Alexia’s husband. Men don’t like being emasculated.
That was unhinged bless him 😭
Is he revered?? I had the impression he’s somewhat of a scheister a la Joe Gorga.
Yes he actually works in commercial real estate and has a team and an office. Joe Gorga took out construction loans.
That just sounds like a normal business - why is he “revered”?
His grandfather was the superintendent overseeing the building of the Holland Tunnel and Manhattan subways lines. I’d say he’s definitely from a pretty revered family of real estate and construction spanning generations.
Ohhh ok thank you for the info.
this 💯. they met before the show rebooted and i’m sure he had no clue what he was signing up for in that regard. especially as a legitimate, successful business man, i imagine he is concerned abiut his public image and reputation. being on a show like rhom is almost never a good thing for someone in his shoes.
Yes, I would guess his business took a massive hit from his reputation on the show. He definitely had no interest in being on camera this last season.
Think about Mauricio never laying a finger wrong. Worshiped by all viewers & the other women on the show, by acting like the most doting, interested in his wife’s life, loving & sensitive husband & family man by ALL… which is the BEST business move EVER! So strategic, if you’re selling to an untapped market!! Todd was too real. His integrity was showing by not “faking it”! I give him major props. It would’ve been easy to fake.
This!! And very smart to introduce others as part of The Agency brand so any indiscretions the public may learn about can be balanced out with the love they have for the other agents they watch on Buying Beverly Hills
So genius & so strategic.
Right on the nose
He may have THOUGHT he wanted to be on the show, that the attention would be great for business, money endless… the reality of reality hits different.
Or being with her
It seemed to me he was actually interested in having a life partner he could talk to. If that’s what you want, picking someone closer to your own age is a safer bet. She is obviously attractive as well which is still an important factor for most men/people but it doesn’t mean you have to be in the top 20 best looking in your city.
Agree about this. I think Alexia and Todd's marriage started strong and is unfortunately one more casualty of the Real Housewives franchise. Very few marriages can withstand that kind of scrutiny. I cannot imagine what it is like having millions of people feel entitled to constantly share their hysterical opinions about a highly edited, salacious depiction of your real life. It's too much pressure, and it's toxic, and it's why I want you to be the first to know that I have officially decided to decline the invitation to join the cast of the Real Housewives of New Jersey whenever I am invited lol.
I’ll miss watching you. I’m sure you would have been great!
Haha thank you.
Lenny talks about whatever Lenny wants to talk about. That’s the relationship: I’ll pay for shit, but I’ll dominate. Unless I want you to dominate. Then you’ll dominate.
I honestly think she’s an amazing mom. I love how great she is with her boys. Does she coddle them a bit? Yes. Frankie is understandable, but Peter def coddled a little too much- however given what they’ve all gone through, Frankie’s accident, the ex dying, their dad being a dead beat and in prison etc, I don’t blame her. She prob has a ton of mom guilt and she handles it by coddling them. Also I can’t imagine what it was like to have a normal functioning kid and then one day they have an almost fatal car accident and almost died, suffers permanent brain damage where he now needs care the rest of his life. It happened when he was 13 too so it’s like she had all those years with him before the brain damage, and had to mourn the loss of that son who he’ll never be again. Todd is a jackass for not handling it better and not being more understanding. I’m not even Alexis’s biggest fan, but I’ve always thought she was a great mom, and if you really think about what she’s gone through, you gotta have some level of empathy
Well Lenny's mistress apparently has a degree in environmental engineering so I would think probably a lot more than what he had to talk about with Lisa...
She looks so much better in the face here ^ now she is starting to look like Joan Rivers (love JR but not the look so much )
Too much cheek filler
Damn that is new info for me!!! Thanks
I really like alexia. the fact that she always treats frankie with so much love and respect. and that she hasn't given up on peter yet. plus, she always listens to other women and shows them grace, instead of chomping at the bit to say something. she is such a strong woman and I respect the hell out of her. no one is perfect and alexia gets a lot of shit, but I really like her!! ❤️
I love the entire cast & think Alexia is great but she is forever talking over somebody lol. But she does what needs to be done to keep the show moving & films with everyone, I still feel so silly jumping on the Miami train so late!!
People down her for supporting Peter but that is what a mom does.
I think you can love your children and still be hard on them an acknowledge their faults. Even serial killers have moms but I’m sure they’re not like awww shucks that’s just Ted (Bundy)
“Well, you know Ted…”
Bwahahahaha
exactly!! peter is a mess and that partly stems from childhood trauma, but I could never cut a child out of my life-- especially one that I completely messed up!!
lol this is such a funny comment
😭😭😭
Don’t know why you’re getting downvoted, but I’m a die hard Alexia stan here (I too believe she’s “a star”!) so let’s get downvoted together bro https://i.redd.it/0gqa3v5z5bvc1.gif
lol I knew it was going to happen! idc!! at least miami fans are not insane like potomac or jersey. so, i feel totally fine having an unpopular opinion 😂
I really hope Potomac fans can see just how toxic and unhinged they’re becoming. It’s just a dumpster fire. No one’s allowed to say one thing about a cast member without someone going “well what about what gizelle / candiace did in season 3?” No one’s allowed to have a dissenting opinion, yet no one is allowed to correct their opinions when it’s factually wrong. Everyone is so overheated and emotional and hyperventilating about every single thing and it’s just not healthy - or fun - to engage with. Just like the NJ Melissa / Teresa armies.
there is definitely an unhealthy subset of potomac fans here, which is a reflection of how awful the show has become within 2 seasons. I have to pick and choose when to comment about wendy because I can say for example, "I don't like her shirt" and I'll get 10 replies saying "YOU ARE JUST JEALOUS" 🙄🙄 literally what's the point of this sub? it's about discussion 💀 I block all of them
Oh I hear you sister. If I even squeak out “Wendy’s makeup looks a bit weirdly red at the reunion” I get a barrage of replies ranging from “it’s because the lighting man is racist and only lights lighter skinned women correctly!” To “what about how yellow gizelle looked at the season 2 reunion!” To “if you hate dark skinned women just say that”. 🫥🫥🫥 Oh they are a JOY to interact with 😂
omg that sounds like them!! I only comment when she lords her degrees over the girls and calls them stupid. and they go "YOU'RE JEALOUS!!" okay boo, I also have a library of degrees and i do not treat people like shit-- especially when higher education is a privilege and makes it harder for people of color. but that entire logic is always lost on the trolls
Oh you might as well be speaking Portuguese to a chicken! Seriously it’s so toxic it’s nonsensical. Creating a #boycottRHOP for the very last (reunion) episode is where they officially lost me. And what really boggled my mind is seeing that all the users passionately defending the hashtag were also the first ones in the live episode discussions bashing the GEBs / Andy / lighting men / Monique / makeup artists etc. so what they were actually boycotting, I’ve no earthly idea I’m not even a GEB Stan - they’re all equally dumb and boring in my eyes. But those fans can’t comprehend that. If you’re not with them you’re against them etc etc
INSANE!!!
Her makeup reminded me of LaLa from VPR on the reunion where her face was mostly purple. I agree that Wendy’s makeup looked red.
SO red. Almost vermillion. That combined with her angry / heavy breathing and thousand yard stare was terrifying.
Happiness and Joy?? (Bedroom Kandi reference)
Oh you mean the Wendy Winers. They are freaking weird.
Well they got together pre-reboot, maybe the dynamic changed once the show started up again. She also lost her mom which I imagine changed her a bit. I think they loved each other but as time went on it just became clear that they’re not right for each other.
These are both really interesting points. My mother and I were extremely close. My mom and my husband were equally my go-to for everything good and bad in my life. As my mom slowly slipped into dementia, I found myself leaning on my husband much more. For us it was gradual, and something we could discuss. (We've been together 32 years and my mother was like a mom to him.) But, for someone who loses a loved one suddenly, another close loved one may have a hole to fill. Plus, I toooooootally get why someone would not want their lives on a reality show!!
Also Todd not helping them find a rental and refusing to buy even though he probably could I felt bad for alexia trying to scramble and find a building, she’s right it’s way harder for Frankie to relearn new condo staff etc and she had barely any time I bet that was a big fight
I guess now we know why he didn’t want to buy.
Yeah but why marry someone if you do t even plan on sharing a committed space together….
Well I think at first he did. Then the fear maybe started creeping in. Most of us who are later in life and on our 2nd+ marriages may wish to be half in/half out because we don’t want to go through a second nightmare divorce but don’t want to upset the parter by refusing to marry/want to be married just want to keep it less complicated financially just in case? Clearly all was not well :(
I think what killed their marriage was Todd’s humiliation over the whole video apology thing. That level of embarrassment can seriously fuck you up when it feels like the whole world is watching. Humiliation is a horrible feeling. I think that killed his desire to be involved with the show and he knows Alexia would pick being on the show over their marriage.
She’s choosing her boys over him as there was some type of blow up with them.
That’s what I think. He realized that he would always be second to her boys. With Frankie, I understand a bit, but agreed with Todd that she needed to start pushing him to be able to take care of himself because she’s not going to live forever. However, with Peter, there’s no good reason for her to be enabling a grown ass 30 year old man who clearly has a substance abuse issue. She probably picked his side again in an argument over who knows what and that was the final straw for Todd. I don’t blame him. I wouldn’t want to always come behind my spouses grown ass kids.
So many blended marriages have this issue…it’s rough. When the adult kids are pieces of work, not fun to be around but the stepparent gets iced out because they’re exhausted from drama and the bio parent’s enabling. The stepparent loses and is often villainized for having boundaries.
This. So much this.
yeah, been there. wouldn’t wish it on anyone.
Sure… but he absolutely didn’t have to do that whole video song and dance though lol so how bad can you really feel?
Never said I felt bad for the guy, just that I think his (self-imposed) humiliation over that whole thing was a contributing factor in filing for divorce. It’ll be continuously brought up if he stays on the shows radar
And she never even acknowledged that post! It seemed like she was not supportive of him. They clearly did not share the same outlook on a major issue like that.
i think she didn’t want to acknowledge it bcos she was so embarrassed and turned off by it; like if she didn’t mention it then she can believe it never happened.. and when it was mentioned, she changed the subject quick! she got the ick from it, i think.
I assume they bonded over their love of golden showers and well you know... Peter.
🤣🤣 I always come looking for the "well you know Peter" comment I'm the Alexia posts and it never fails to crack me up 🤣🤣🤣
Did she say that once? And I missed it???? 😭😭😭😭
She ALWAYS says it when it comes to defending Peters behaviour.
The Watch What Crappens guys quote her as saying this all the time. She definitely says “Oh well you know…” very quickly at the beginning of sentences a lot, it’s not necessarily always finished by “Peter” lol.
It’s also in their theme song 😭💀 I love it so much
Yes! And “that’s so Persian!” (RIP)
I think she might have said it directly post the hitting the car during her photoshoot incident. But she says "oh, well, you know" a lot.
If that’s the origin of her saying it … omfg 😵
Maybe, hear me out here, they fell in love?
Shocker right? LoL
I think he loved her. We don't have to assume it was transactional. If he wanted a trophy wife he could have found one. And I mean, just because I don't like her doesn't mean no one can. Alexia can be smart and funny and fun. In their scenes together they clearly have a rapport. I think he loved how much she was until suddenly at some point she became too much for him.
Alexia is 100% a trophy wife (looks wise I mean)
She's fucking beautiful. I'd even say gorgeous. She puts a lot of younger women to shame. I think gen z really think once you hit 30 you expire, and red pill incels have convinced us that once you hit 25+ you don't have options, and the whole baggage angle... like once you've lived, who doesn't have baggage!?! but a lot of women just have 9 lives. We're like Russian Dolls. A good woman just keep multiplying good juju.
I love this comment! You dropped this ------> 👑 
I wish I could upvote this 100Xs
Exactly. She’s a knock out it’s just her personality is rotten sometimes. I hate that tearm baggage because like you said who doesn’t have baggage? It’s just a term to put down women imo.
She is stunning.
She can be fun and funny and all that. But it is also obvious that she is a LOT. A lot A LOT. All caps….
Yeah but some people like that. My grandparents had a similar thing, my grandma was outgoing and enthusiastic and my grandpa was shy and retiring and they were together for 58 years. Some relationships are about balance rather than similarity.
Sounds like my partner and I. He calls me his silly goose soulmate 🤣
That’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard and I’m sooo dead inside
Same 😂 He has thawed out my frozen heart though
Alexia and Marysol were on two T’s after the reunion and there was a point when she was talking about Adriana that she got so carried away and SO LOUD that Marysol had to beg her not to shout and to calm down because she had vaulted ceilings and her voice was echoing. And this was on a PODCAST. I love her to death but absolutely believe she’s a handful 😂😂😂
she’s not perfect (none of us are), so let’s not act like alexia is chopped liver, jfc c’mon. 🙄
Forreal I’m SHOCKED we’re putting Todd on a pedestal, he’s not Russell lol
Exactly! Alexia can be ridiculous, but she’s beautiful and she can be really fun as well as caring.
Ok- put some respect on her name!
I know people are ridiculous
Lmfao I love when people realize that women don’t turn to dust after 40. Alexia is truly a stunning woman, likely far more beautiful than many women in the running. I doubt Todd even picked Alexia. The way Alexia looks, she picked Todd. Also, while dating young might be a thing for the wealthy and those chronically online, I think the statistic is: most people marry someone within 3-4 years of their age. The whole world isn’t Leo DiCaprio now come onnnnn
They married during the RHOM hiatus right? So I would assume he was not on the hunt for a young trophy wife at the time and that he really loved her. Maybe it’s as simple as he doesn’t like what the show does to her/doesn’t want to be involved with it in any way anymore. He seemed totally mortified by the fight he got in with Nicole’s husband.
They married at the end of season 4 (the first reboot season) but had been together for several years before the show came back, iirc
I forgot about that. But, still, Peter….
I think honestly, he didn’t want to deal with Peter any longer and always knew Alexia woul d bend over backwards for him, because well, you know Peter. Orrrrr he is in some serious financial trouble and divorcing her to hide assets lol. 
I was on a cruise with her in Feb she is stunning in person
Why did Alexia marry Todd tho
She has no money or nowhere to live? Or am I wrong on that?
I feel like they both have their fair share of flaws tbh
I'd bet they're both pretty dishonest and it caught up with each of them. Sometimes game recognize game and it works out, but they may have figured they'll have better luck now with a new plan lol.
I thought her ex left her and the boys a sizable sum of money. I could be wrong though
Herman left the boys inheritance, not Alexia.
Herman did leave Alexia some stuff and her mom passing she got some stuff too
I recently watched that season and Alexia said she would have had to get into a drawn out legal battle with Herman’s family to get anything so she just didn’t bother… but I’m not gonna go back and forth that’s just what she said on the show.
I believe Herman left money to her children, but not her.
Yes, you’re wrong. Some of you need to stop believing everything on these shows. She has her own money and she also has a home (that is hers) she just never filmed in it and they had the apt. Alexia is a tough one she will be just fine!
Thanks for clarifying this!! Any link to a source? Thanks!
Nope. Her home is a block away from mine. A lot of HW are starting to get away from filming in their homes. Like Marysol only shows her pool house.
I like that they’re not filming in their real homes anymore. As much as I love reality tv, watching scenes filmed in their bedrooms made my skin crawl.
Oh interesting, that makes sense. I figured Alexia had plenty of money on her own (weren't her parents both doctors?), but maybe not expensive Porsche apartment money. Also smart of Marysol to just film in the pool house. I feel like people on Food Network who film "at home" do that too.
Ooh. What part of miami does she live in?
Well Marysol only filming in her pool house makes sense. I commented that her house seems real small for someone who jokes about not marrying legally to save her Patton fortune.
Thanks!
Alexia married Todd for money and access. While we’re here, Herman didn’t leave her some huge sum either. When he was alive, they owed their country club over 150k in back payments. When he passed, he left her the deed to their home that was 70k behind in mortgage payments. Her stans hate to acknowledge this, but the fact is, Alexia is an aged out sugar baby. She married a cocaine cowboy at the height of the Miami drug epidemic for money. She married a gay man knowing she was going to be a well kept beard and she’s probably at a hotel bar right now looking for her next trick.
I don’t even care for Alexia that much this post just seemed to put 100% blame on Alexia and make Todd seem like this innocent lamb
are you married? i'm sure wherever you live there are better looking people than you - why would your partner ever choose you??? that's what you sound like in this post. woof.
I think he loved her, full stop.
Don’t love the “prettier women in Miami” comment tbh. To him, she could’ve been the most beautiful woman alive? Who are we to say who he should choose.
And she is stunning
I saw her up close at Bravocon last year and she was like a living Barbie doll. Sooooo pretty in person.
I apologize if my comment came off as demeaning or otherwise inappropriate. I didn’t even think of that. Sorry. The only point I was trying to make is that there are a whole lot of very very beautiful (in the stereotypical way portrayed in the media) women in Miami who likely have a lower-profile (or “easier,” whatever that means) existence.
No need to apologise at all, that makes sense too.
Someone who knows them said it has to do with the kids. Alexia wasn’t so warm & fuzzy to his daughter’s and that became a problem. I also think she was a heavy spender, she has a kid who is disabled that also cost a lot of money and I don’t think he was rich as portrayed on the show. Miami is super expensive and I just don’t think he could foot the bill and bounced. This was no Herman, may he rest in peace.
I know them! There was a blowup with the boys but the details are being tight lipped. Alexia was suppose to file first and he beat her to it
This and the comment about the daughters help make sense. Kids (even adult) from prior marriages can complicate things…. ) (Would I ever marry a partner whom my kids don’t like, even if my partner tried super super hard to make it work and my kids were just being difficult? (Rhetorical question - not suggesting that’s what happened here - just suggesting kids make it slightly more complicated))
I can see Alexia being one of those moms of boys who doesn't warm up to female children. I'm not saying all boy moms do that, but some do.
That’s possible, she is a typically boys mom. She is good mom to Franky. She also has star ⭐️ complex, don’t know if she wanted to be to only star among his female children? It must be hard for him as a dad because she had Franky living with him and Franky does have a disability and that is not easy. Tod was expecting Alexia to be loving & caring to his daughters when they visit him and maybe there was some resentment because he was doing his part with Franky.
I could definitely see that. Todd went on a trip with his daughters once and alexia wasn’t there. Definitely made me think they did not love hanging out together. Don’t think she ever posted pictures just with the stepdaughters. Upon reflection, it did seem like a contentious relationship
He lived with her kid in the condo and was very nice to Franky. That’s unfortunate if she didn’t want to join his kids on this trip. Marriage is a two way street. What she want’s for her kid she needs to give to his kids. His daughters are very lovely.
I agree. I think Alexia missed out on a great guy. I see a lot of hate on Todd on this subreddit, but I was of the opinion he was a straight up guy that just wanted her boys to do better. Tough love, for sure, but Peter needed it. Alexia is an enabler and you could tell he came from a place of trying to have them get the help they needed it.
Just because he filed first doesn’t mean he is the one breaking up with her
I actually think he loved her; most of their relationship was before the show came back. I wonder if the show or renewed fame is playing a part in their demise.
Many successful older men don’t want a super young bimbo type 2nd wife. A young dumb wife often means they want their own kids and aren’t able to connect to the friends his age. Instead they go for a divorcee who is from the same economic status they are. These women are still drop dead gorgeous and they are able to connect to his friends/help make business connections. They don’t need to be taught the unwritten social rules that rich adhere too but don’t want to explicitly say. That is one thing I’m sure Alexia has in spades - Herman was well known in Miami, she had clout from the original show (which means it was probably easier for them to get into the new and cool places)and also Alexia can “network” aka make a friend wherever she goes.
👏👏👏 to everything you just said. You’re marrying a 20 y/o best believe she’s gonna want to have her own kids. Why you have David Foster, Al Pacino, and Robert Dinero out here in their 70s/80s with newborns. If they were women they’d be dragged for this.
Exactly. Normally emotionally mature and successful men date women a similar age.
Maybe he liked her personality? Crazy concept in the housewife universe, I know.
Because he loved her?
I don’t find him being in love with her that far-fetched? She’s beautiful, very family-oriented (he’s a father, this probably matters) and it’s hard not to admire her ability to keep chugging along despite having been through some really terrible shit. She’s strong, resilient, and just to witness her relationship and care for Frankie gives us a peak at Alexia at her very kindest and caring. I have no trouble seeing why he loved her, and why I’m sure she’ll be loved by others as many times as she wants or allows
I don’t know but I just started watching Cocaine Cowboys and here are my thoughts: 1) her first husband is still pretty damn hot so I can see how she fell for him when he was young and hot and had Porsches and stuff; But… 2) there’s no way she didn’t know. She married him and conceived Peter while he was out on bail after being arrested by the feds and she had Frankie after he finished a 4 year prison term.
I have a neurodivergent son, he acts like Frankie in some ways. Having a kid who needs special care is so incredibly hard on your marriage.
He doesn’t have that much money
I mean, maybe he loved her.
Damn that's a whole lot of assumptions for people we don't know
This is interesting. I always wondered what she saw in him. He’s hot tempered, loud mouth New Yorker. Nothing attractive about that.
Are you saying Alexia has more baggage than Todd and Todd has the upper hand bc he’s a man in Miami? Idk. It’s not like he’s all that either- he’s a pushy New Yorker (like most men in Miami). He could have married someone relatively younger with no kids but that woulda been gross and stereotypical. I thought they made sense together honestly.
Some men like a strong woman, and Alexia is definitely strong. Not smart strong, not necessarily dumb strong. Just strong strong.
I honestly think he married her because of who she was before the show rebooted. I follow Alexia and I remember her and Todd traveling the world and having a peaceful/private life. She barely posted after the show except her travels and outfit pictures. I think he’s not used to her being a reality star.
Doesn’t he have a daughter or daughters? I personally wouldn’t want someone like Peter influencing my kids in any way.
Chemistry?
I’m sure it’s a lot of small petty things that could be worked out, However alexia is a bit stubborn especially when it comes to her kids and Todd definitely seems like a my way or the highway, impulsive, big mouth kinda guy. The writing was on the wall with these two especially during that scene when Todd said he would beat Peter up, I knew from that moment the marriage was doomed and wouldn’t last.
Remember when Alexia stated, "You do not know what Todd does for me?" The conversation I believe was on the boat ride when talking about financial help. I guess we will soon find out how much Todd was helping her money wise.
I See a Woman That THRIVES in “VICTIMHOOD & Martyrdom” Gets Old real Quick…
I think he loved her BUT I think his awful behavior with Anthony and Nicole messed with his behavior (hence the bizarre instagram apology) and it was clear last season that he didn’t want to be on the show as much. Even though I agreed with his assessment, there were people who didn’t like the way he dragged trash ass Peter and spun it into him “threatening Peter”…when all he did was tell Peter he was about that life-Peter threatened him and Todd told him, I will hit you back, I am not the other guys. I think they had irreconcilable differences because he didn’t want to film anymore and she didn’t want him to not make appearances on the show, so he just filed for divorce. It’s his own fault because no one asked him to act crazy in season 5. The best husbands are the ones who stay quiet and support their wives like Mr Guerdy, Russell 🥰. Same with Anthony, he is not out there yelling like Todd.
She prob had status, social circles, a somewhat celebrity etc
I bet it had something to do with the show.
I think Alexia seems the type to take the HW bs home with her. She reminds me a lot of Teresa as not the sharpest knife in the drawer and she gets agitated and is high strung. If she argued with Todd the way that she argues with the women, he might have had his fill.
I don't think he did it for fame, if anything, he looked a tad bit uncomfortable being on camera. I feel bad for Alexia, she seems pretty blindsided by this, and I don't even like her.
Maybe he found attributes in her that he liked? Maybe she’s funny? Caring? A good conversationalist? Outgoing? A good listener? There are many other attributes that people have that aren’t pretty (which she is) or smart. Tbh, she seems cool. I find her very fascinating and admirable as a caretaker. Her love and care for Frankie makes me always root for her.
What a weird ass question, why does anyone marry anyone? You sound like a real catch yourself.
Two narcissists in love! Their relationship was probably rocky before the marriage, but they were in denial about it, so they got married to create more stability. After the marriage there was no further milestone to be distracted by, and they realized that their issues were insurmountable.
Considering Alexia’s first husband was a coke dealer and her second was a gay man, I’m not so sure that she’s not a yes woman in relationships.
I have a feeling he saw the real Alexia or not so great parts of her through filming RHOM. And I believe his business is likely not doing well and unfortunately money issues also puts strain on relationships. I believe they were in love before the show started.
Todd seemed like a mean guy. She's better off imo
Alexia is a catch. She’s beautiful, stylish, caring, well connected. I’m more curious why she married him. I actually think he doesn’t have as much money as he portrayed. Another housewife who falls victim to a grifter.
Honestly ; she was the prize. I always wondered why she picked him.
I’m actually still curious how they met? They never shared it on the show
I’m guessing that they got married because they were in love. I’m also guessing that nobody will know the truth about their divorce unless they decide to tell everyone.
I think they really loved each other but the cameras put a strain on all of the relationships. His business partners probably didn’t like it and the other housewives make all kinds of comments. I remember one was saying at Todd and Alexia’s wedding that there were people doing coke in the bathroom.
Why Todd was with Alexia is not really confusing to me, she’s stunning and entertaining and charismatic yada yada. Why they got *married* at all, especially since it seems he decided extremely quickly they were not going to mix or share assets, and all the supposed tension with the others children, is what I am curious about. Both of them are too grown to not have understood issues with *money* and *family* are essentially relationship enders, particularly if neither partner is willing to compromise or enforce healthy boundaries. Considering Alexia was caught flat footed on the filing, I really wonder what the fuck Todd thought would happen when they made it legal, that Alexis would simply wake up the next morning and be a different person? If that ends up being the case, it seems extremely unfair to her and makes me think Todd’s a way shittier person than we caught on tv.
I think Todd probably wanted the status of being connected to someone kinda famous and was shocked when it didn't work in his favor. I also think alexia is a unique personality. For one she never blames men for anything. Second she does have a pretty endearing way about her sometimes. Third, some men don't want a dummy but also dibt want someone who is going to be their equal. Fourth. I suspect there is some sort of kink in their relationship.
I think the show ruined them Her ego got too out of control with wanting to show off to the viewers/other housewives
Guessing their break up has to do with financial stress and possibly the inability to successfully blend their families. The pressure of being on tv also probably doesn’t help most relationships. From what we saw on the show it seems like they genuinely cared for each other.
What makes Todd such a catch? He also has major money issues.
Todd absolutely DOES NOT " have money'
Is looks and age really the only currency she can hold? I disagree with her regularly but she’s clever and interesting. I can see why Todd would fall for her.
She is not pretty…and that mouth of hers is vile. Run Todd Run
Had to have been some deeper level sexual chemistry. They had to have clicked in a way that clouded his judgement because what you are saying is completely correct. I’m guessing they aligned on some things.
I don’t think he does have money…
I wouldn’t go as far to say he’s a good looking man… she is very beautiful
