Todd Nepola Files Federal Suit Against Bravo, NBCUniversal and ‘RHOM’ Producer, Seeking $11 Million for Alleged Defamation

He alleges Seasons 6–7 falsely portrayed his finances, seeking to halt future use of his name or image.

Overview

  • The verified complaint was filed Oct. 7 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Florida against Bravo Media, NBCUniversal Media and Purveyors of Pop Productions, with a jury trial requested.
  • Nepola seeks $10 million for defamation and $1 million for unauthorized use of his name and likeness, plus a permanent injunction to stop rebroadcasts across cable, streaming platforms such as Peacock and official network social channels.
  • The filing cites specific on‑air remarks, including comments attributed to cast member Adriana de Moura that his real estate business was struggling and that he and Alexia had to break a lease, which he says are false.
  • Positioning himself as financially secure, Nepola states his net worth exceeds $100 million and says he purchased more than $115 million in real estate during the period portrayed on the show.
  • Representatives for Bravo and NBCUniversal had not responded to requests for comment at the time of publication, as the case opens another front in broader scrutiny of reality‑TV editing and storyline practices.
