Will Dolores Catania Join Real Housewives of Rhode Island? She Says…

by

Dolores Catania is ready for Rhode Island.

Two months following Bravo’s announcement that they are extending their popular “Real Housewives” franchise with “The Real Housewives of Rhode Island,” a star from “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” disclosed an unexpected link to the fresh female cast members of the New England region.

According to Dolores, who shared this exclusive news with TopMob News, she finds the upcoming reality series simply incredible. She’s acquainted with some of the participants and promises an entertaining experience. You might think they’re just Italian, but they decorate the streets of Rhode Island with the Italian flag! They’re quite spirited.

As a lifestyle connoisseur, I must confess that I have personal ties with the stellar cast of The Traitors. However, when whispers circulated about a potential guest appearance on the impending Bravo series, I cleverly sidestepped the speculations, preferring to maintain an air of mystery and intrigue.

As Dolores teased, “Stay tuned.”

Despite speculation about the future of her personal reality series, as “RHONJ” is currently on hold following its season 14 finale, Dolores believes that Rhode Island won’t be able to replace the void left by the Garden State in viewers’ hearts. Her reasoning behind this is…

The 54-year-old cast member, who has been a part of the show since season seven, acknowledged that “New Jersey” stands out uniquely in its own right. He believes that this is not just because of the show itself, but also due to the relationships formed with the audience. It’s as if we are family members like your aunt, mom, or cousin. He suggests that it’s the people, not just the show, that you miss the most.

And the feeling is mutual for Dolores.

She acknowledged that she deeply misses every aspect of filming. Whether it was the joyous moments or the challenging ones, she cherished them all. Over the past eight years, this line of work has been a significant part of her life, and she finds herself missing the familiar faces that were always around. It feels somewhat like going through a difficult breakup.

Dolores does, however, appreciate fans wanting to see her return to TV ASAP.

Over the years, I’ve received incredible support, and I can’t express enough gratitude for it all. It truly makes a difference in my world. In fact, if I could, I’d invite everyone to spend the night at my house – no matter how many people that might be!

As for which of her RHONJ costars she still talks to when cameras are down?

She shared that she had a conversation with nearly everyone today, and she stays connected with all of them: Jen Fessler, Margaret Josephs, Melissa Gorga, Teresa Giudice, and Danielle Cabral. The ladies from Jersey seem to be evenly matched. I truly hope we reunite again soon.

At present, Dolores is concentrating on maintaining good health during her GLP-1 weight loss adventure, aided by a hidden asset she wishes her followers to be aware of.

Dolores mentioned that while taking GLP-1s, a common side effect is feeling nauseous. However, she found relief with Dramamine’s Advanced Herbals ginger chews. These chews are fantastic for reducing nausea, and she wishes she had them during her pregnancy 30 years ago as they would have been invaluable to her. They certainly helped her get past the nauseous feeling. It’s incredible!

Bravo’s unsuccessful endeavor to showcase our country’s capital resulted in the gathering of four women who, if you blink, you might miss them in your memory—their names are Mary Amons, Lynda Erkiletian, Cat Ommanney, and Stacie Scott Turner. Another woman, eager for the spotlight, made an uninvited appearance at a White House gathering. More on her will follow.

Who?

Vaguely familiar, but…

Once upon a time, DeShawn starred on the same TV show as NeNe Leakes. Surprising, we know.

This one-season Housewife brought nothing to the Orange County table.

Utah’s second season Housewife, Jennie, ended her tenure with a regrettable incident. In January 2022, she was dismissed following the reemergence of past Facebook posts deemed offensive and racially insensitive online. Later, she expressed apologies for her actions, but the harm had already been inflicted.

Her defining trait was “cougar.”

During season 16, the doctor from Orange County was seldom a cause of excitement. Her short-lived marital issues with her perpetually shirtless husband, who could possibly be named Ryne (or perhaps Ryan), failed to capture much attention. However, we will always remember Dr. Jen’s spectacularly drunken episode at the Dubrows’ exceedingly awkward, yet remarkably entertaining dinner party, where she got thoroughly tipsy on wine.

The initial period of practice for the anesthetist nurse could be succinctly described with a term that we sincerely hope to never encounter again – the unfortunate incident known as “Esophagus-gate.

Katie often spoke passionately about her charitable endeavors, yet didn’t seem very active on-screen. She was more of a one-time appearance, contributing little as part of the group. Cutting the cast trip short? That would be considered unacceptable behavior on a show like ‘Housewives’.

During the two seasons she spent as a main cast member, it was apparent that Charrisse faced marital issues. Beyond this, her champagne room incident is another notable aspect of her time on the show.

A one-and-done Housewife, Shamari was at least fun?

In the twelfth season of the show, it was refreshing to notice a bit of diversity among the predominantly white cast of O.C., but Peggy turned out to be a perplexing character. The disputes she initiated were peculiar, frequently revolving around someone using a word she found puzzling, and her choice to seclude herself in her room for an entire day during the trip to Iceland demonstrated that she might not have been well-suited for the lifestyle portrayed on Real Housewives.

During season eight, instead of developing a connection with fellow Nigerian costar Wendy Osefo, Nneka’s storyline for her debut season revolved primarily around an alleged accusation that Wendy’s mother was a witch (incredibly, this is true). It would have been wonderful to witness them bonding over their shared heritage rather than engaging in conflicts without resolution.

In season 16, Noella whirled around like a whirlwind of frenetic enthusiasm. Although her personal hardships (her husband James departed the country and requested a divorce just before filming began) were somewhat intriguing, it was her ongoing drama with Heather Dubrow, the queen bee, that prevented her from sinking to the very bottom of the ranks. With additional time and another season, we might grow fond of Mrs. Bergener.

In her debut season, she was known as a peacemaker, but by her final season, she went from this to persistent complaints over a tossed cake and baseless accusations of anti-Semitism – a dramatic shift in the Real Housewives franchise that we hardly expected so swiftly.

Everything Amber and her spouse Jim appeared to exude a sense of great urgency or need. Moreover, it was Jim who found himself immersed more deeply in the drama compared to Amber. Not exactly a flattering situation.

The only thing we recall about Karen is that she was a dentist, and it appeared as if none of her colleagues held her in high regard. Onward!

This was a real person with a show on Bravo. We promise.

In the cast of RHONY, Jules didn’t stay long enough to be ranked among the top, but during her short time, she certainly added plenty of drama to the mix.

So unnecessary they couldn’t even get individual taglines.

Similar to Sara Al Madani, Nina embodied a multi-faceted, thriving Arab woman who seamlessly combined contemporary lifestyle with age-old cultural customs. She managed to steer clear of the majority of the first season’s turmoil and occasionally found herself playing second fiddle to her co-stars whose more prominent personalities made larger impacts.

Taleen proved to be a pleasant newcomer during the second season of RHODubai, however, with just one season under our belt, it’s tough to make a definitive assessment of her performance.

In seasons 11 and 12 of “America’s Next Top Model,” the veteran contestant carried a peach, but didn’t leave a lasting impact on the realm of “Real Housewives of Atlanta” beyond being pregnant for a significant portion of her term. However, she did earn applause for her memorable reading of Marlo Hampton during their time in Tokyo.

Typically, we require multiple seasons to rank a new Housewife higher, but Katie made an impressive debut during the 18th season of RHOC, squaring off against veteran Housewife Heather Dubrow right from the start. It takes courage for any woman to challenge someone like Ms. Fancypants.

Sara’s consistently optimistic and wise perspective on life was generally uplifting, yet lacked the typical elements of drama (except for the instance when she gave Caroline Brooks some unsolicited parenting advice that wasn’t well-received). Nevertheless, this tech entrepreneur broke down barriers and defied expectations about what it means to be a contemporary Muslim woman in the Middle East, and we commend her for that.

The newcomers in the 13th season of RHONJ seem to embody the usual profile of a Jersey Housewife and promptly engaged in a prolonged spat over an insignificant matter, which Andy Cohen deemed superfluous at the reunion. Unfortunately, these former friends didn’t add much more depth during season 14.

Back in season one, I must admit, Larsa didn’t leave much of a mark before her departure from the series. Fast forward to 2021, when Peacock brought back RHOM for its fourth season, it was all about Larsa – her connection with Kim Kardashian, and, well, let’s just say her creative endeavors on OnlyFans involving those tantalizing foot photos.

After appearing as a Bravolebrity for one season, she participated in the twelfth season of ‘Next Food Network Star’ in 2016. However, her journey in that competition also came to an end without success.

Sadly, she served as little more than a target for Brandi Glanville’s verbal attacks. Moreover, her statement endorsing the idea that being excessively thin is desirable was distasteful.
