There’s no way to mince words regarding the state of The Real Housewives of New Jersey. Both fans and the cast are being left in the dark about the future of the show, and this has been the case for several months. Now, Dolores Catania is joining Melissa Gorga in expressing disappointment over the lengthy pause.
However, she’s blaming her castmates. Plus, she will soon set sail as part of the Celebrity Wives Cruise for 2025 with some of the ladies from the troubled Bravo show that she happens to be on good terms with.
Fans will recall that Melissa recently warned Bravo about the length of time they plan to take to decide how RHONJ will move forward. According to her, the network will lose cast members because they’re not being told the status of the show. Notably, Kandi Burruss decided to leave RHOA for this very reason.
Recently, Dolores sat down for an interview with PEOPLE to discuss her skin-tightening procedure. However, there’s no way the topic of RHONJ wouldn’t come up. When asked about the series, she said she’s “a little mad” about it.”
According to Dolores, “We didn’t film last season, so we’re not coming back… we’re not going to be airing in January or February.
She then blames her castmates for the show being on pause. She said, “Of course, I’d look forward to seeing my cast come back on the screen or even come back to film, but they made a mess. I’m a little mad that everybody couldn’t get it together. I really am.”
Dolores then said she tried her best to get the ladies to work through her issues. She explained, “On my way to that finale, I spoke to a therapist and asked her for some tips on going in and speaking to the women. I wrote it down in the car ride on the way there. And no matter what I did on and off camera, nothing helped.”
She went on, “You could see I was defeated. I sat there, and I knew you wouldn’t be seeing us for a while; I saw it coming. We f—ing lost something along the way. I’m looking at Salt Lake City, and I’m looking at Beverly Hills, and they fight, but they don’t go for the jugular. They’re not hitting below the belt. They agree to disagree and move on.”
