I have seen this lag/fps drop issue for months, in live mode, build mode and CAS. And you see it happen to some of the well known Sims YouTubers, like James Turner and Deligracy.
It used to be that you can open up the options menu or clear the notification walls and the lag would be fixed. This works sometimes, but other times, nothing works except saving and exiting to the main menu and reloading again.
I don't know what events in the game would have caused this - it feels really random, and frequent.
@NykoIaz There are a lot of causes of fps drops, some related to system issues (hardware or software), some because Sims 4 is what it is. Have you noticed any patterns to the fps drops in live mode? For example, maybe they happen at the same sim-time every day or week, or only when your sims are on certain lots, or when there are a number of sims on the active lot. Do you use mods or custom content, and if so, have you tested without it? You don't need to save your progress.
Please also run a dxdiag and attach it to a post.
