Lisa Marie Hochstein (née MacCallum; born July 24, 1982) is a Canadian-American television personality and entrepreneur. She is best known for appearing as a main cast member on the reality television series, The Real Housewives of Miami, appearing in that capacity since the show's second season.[4]

Life and career

Hochstein was born in Toronto, Canada to parents Roger & Jean (Wedemire) MacCallum. She has a younger brother named Phillip.[5]

In her early twenties, Lisa embarked on a career as a model and actress, initially participating in beauty pageants like Miss Swimsuit Canada, a title she won in 2002.[citation needed] She soon set her focus primarily on modeling, adopting the stage name "Lisa MacKay."[6] In 2006, she made her debut appearance in Playboy, a decision she later came to regret.[7]

Lisa met her husband, Dr. Leonard "Lenny" Hochstein, in 2007, while he was visiting Las Vegas.[5] Shortly after meeting, she decided to relocate to Miami, and just six months later, the couple was engaged.[1] They were wed in the backyard of their Sunset Island home exactly two years after they met.[8]

Hochstein's career moved to reality television, when she made her debut on the second season of The Real Housewives of Miami in 2012.[1] Early on, the show focused on the challenges that Lisa and Lenny faced while trying to conceive a child. The couple's fertility struggles resulted in three miscarriages and four unsuccessful IVF attempts.[9] Eventually, they decided to pursue surrogacy, and in July 2015, they became parents to their first child, Logan Marc.[10] Four years later, they welcomed their second child, Elle Marie.[11]

The Hochsteins were noted residents of the exclusive Star Island neighborhood for over 10 years. The couple purchased the then historic 1920s estate in 2012,[12] with plans to immediately demolish the house and construct a 20,000 square foot mansion in its place.[13][14] Their plans sparked strong resistance from the Miami Design Preservation League, attempting to save the iconic Walter De Garmo home.[15] However, despite the opposition, Lisa and Lenny ultimately succeeded in their battle against the preservationists, completing construction of their palatial home in 2016.[16][17]

As a result of the former couple's very public and contentious divorce, Lisa decided to launch a divorce services company called Splitwell in 2023.[18]

In November 2023, Lisa moved out of her and Lenny's marital property and into a 5,000 square foot condominium nearby.[19]

In April 2026, Hochstein was charged with one count of interception of wire, oral, or electronic communications in Miami-Dade County.[20] The charge stemmed from allegations that she and her then-boyfriend, Jody Glidden, installed a hidden recording device in the vehicle of her ex-husband, Leonard Hochstein, during their divorce proceedings in 2023.[21] According to an arrest warrant, the device allegedly recorded private conversations related to family matters, finances, and business activities without consent.[21]

Authorities reported that forensic analysis recovered both active and deleted recordings from the device, including audio purportedly capturing the installation of the recorder.[21] Investigators also alleged that Glidden had purchased similar recording devices prior to the incident.[21]

Hochstein and Glidden were both arrested in April 2026 and later released on bond.[21] Both have pleaded not guilty, and Hochstein's attorney stated that the matter is related to a contentious divorce and should be handled as a civil issue rather than a criminal case.[21]
