In May 1933, his first wife Nelly, a successful tennis player, took her life because of the discrimination and prosecution of Jews in Nazi Germany. He married Grete Walter, daughter of the conductor Bruno Walter in Autumn 1933. He began to work as an architect again, and the couple emigrated to Switzerland. They lived apart and Neppach's wife, who had an affair with Ezio Pinza filed for divorce. When they met to discuss the matter Neppach first shot his wife and then himself.
