“OK well let’s say this for starters,” the account wrote (according to screenshots from ItsOnSite). “[Mike] has sent me nudes, I have videos. And no, it’s not massive but it’s pretty. The nudes I’ll post some snippets of later on, but those will cost ya.”

@Alist_xo added, “So I’m learning Mike Hill cheated on Cynthia the entire time. This is why I wanted to expose him. I hate men who are so easily swayed!”

After a photographer for the outlet asked them how "annoying it's been to deal with claims of infidelity," Mike went on to say that all the talk is "not true." Cynthia responded, "We're great. Rumors are rumors."

Mike added that if the rumors continued to fester, the couple would be taking legal action.

Though the couple has filed for divorce, it seems the Bravo stars ended their marriage on good terms. While the pair did not specifically address what went wrong a source told ET that the couple had "been having issues for a while and tried working on things but weren't able to come to a resolution."

For now, it seems Cynthia will focus her attention on her acting career.
