In a surprising and emotional turn of events, The Real Housewives of Miami star Lenny Hochstein and model Katharina Mazepa have announced that they are engaged once again. The couple, who had a rocky past marked by a breakup earlier this year, are now looking forward to a future together, with Lenny Hochstein’s Instagram post from December 11, 2024, capturing the joyous moment when he proposed to Katharina. But their journey to this point has been anything but conventional, with a complex web of relationships, infidelity, and ultimately, the power of second chances.
Lenny Hochstein, 58, is no stranger to the public eye. Known as a prominent figure on The Real Housewives of Miami, he previously gained media attention for his highly publicized marriage to Lisa Hochstein, a fellow reality TV star. The two had been married for 12 years and share two children, Logan, 9, and Elle, 5. However, their relationship came to a bitter end in May 2022, when Lenny filed for divorce after his affair with Katharina Mazepa came to light.
Katharina, a model from Austria, had been involved with Lenny while he was still married to Lisa. The infidelity rocked the public’s perception of Lenny, especially since the couple had been seemingly happy for years. This affair not only ended his marriage with Lisa but also set off a series of emotional and legal battles, which played out in the media and on social media platforms. Lenny Hochstein’s relationship with Katharina, which began during the tumult of his marriage’s collapse, seemed like the next chapter in his personal life. But after months of ups and downs, the couple found themselves facing a rocky period.
In September 2024, just a few months before their recent engagement, Lenny and Katharina announced the end of their engagement. Lenny shared, “We recently ended our engagement. I have decided to move forward with my life,” adding that he still held “love and admiration” for Katharina and her family. The news was shocking to fans, especially since the couple had been so public about their relationship, sharing their love story on social media and attending events together.
A few days later, Lenny and Katharina released a joint statement to clear up any confusion about the cause of their breakup. Despite the rumors swirling around their relationship, they made it clear that infidelity was not a factor in their split. The statement read, “Lenny and I want to issue a joint statement to provide more clarity and hopefully end any and all speculation once and for all in regard to recent baseless rumors. While we have mutually and amicably decided to end our relationship last month, we want to make it absolutely clear that this was not due to infidelity on either side.”
Lenny and Katharina have now reunited, stronger than ever. Their renewed engagement has captured the hearts of fans, many of whom have followed their tumultuous journey closely. Lenny’s Instagram post from December 11 marked a new chapter in their love story. Alongside a picture of him proposing to Katharina, Lenny shared a heartfelt message: “Sometimes life gives you a second chance and you realize what truly matters. After everything we’ve been through, I knew I would never let her go again. Here’s to a love that’s worth fighting for, stronger than ever, and a future we’ll build together. ???.”

Katharina echoed Lenny Hochstein’s sentiment in the comments, writing, “Love has a way of finding its way back to where it belongs. ????????.” She also shared her own video of the proposal on her Instagram, captioning it, “?? stolen by @lennyhochstein.” The couple’s social media posts have been filled with love and excitement, signaling a fresh start for their relationship.
