Real Housewives of Miami star Alexia Nepola is opening up about how she’s feeling in the wake of her husband, Todd Nepola’s shocking divorce filing.
The 56-year-old reveals that she was taken aback by Todd Nepola’s decision to file for divorce.
“For the first week, for the first two weeks — actually, still today, it’s been three weeks, and I’m still going back in my head like, ‘What happened?’” Alexia Nepola tells her RHOM co-star and Ay Por Favor podcast co-host Marysol Patton, 57, while fighting back tears.
Alexia notes that she’s a “positive” person” who is trying to only “think about all the beautiful times” and “beautiful trips” she had with Todd throughout their relationship.
“And I don’t want to have any anger, but I understand that anger is also one of the grieving stations … oh, stages,” she says . “Yeah. I don’t even know what I’m saying. Because I find myself lost.”
Elsewhere in the podcast, the reality TV star opens up about being “strong,” adding that “life doesn’t prepare you for emotional strength.”
“We’re not born with that emotional strength, but I have it because of all my life lessons,” Alexia says while crying, admitting that she is “struggling.”
“But everybody’s like, ‘You got this. You’re so strong.’”
“It pisses me off, can I tell you?” Marysol chimes in.
“I’m strong, but I’m human,” Alexia continues through tears.
