The Real Housewives Of New Jersey star Dolores Catania revealed she has no regrets about her split from long-time boyfriend David Principe. Dolores and David started dating early on in the latter’s career with RHONJ. However, the couple rarely showed up at parties, with Dolores preferring to bring her ex-husband, Frank Catania. Despite these occurrences, Dolores and David maintained a solid relationship and seemed to be in love with each other.
The couple was a major topic of conversation on the Bravo reality series, with Dolores’ co-stars often wondering if they would get engaged. However, there was no engagement news as they broke up after about four years together. Several reasons have been speculated about for their split, with some rumors saying their different lifestyles played a part while others felt Dolores quit because David did not properly reciprocate her feelings.
Dolores opened up about her relationship with David during an interview with HollywoodLife. She confirmed that they split but said she has no regrets about dating him. Dolores said, “I have no regrets on my relationship with David because we didn’t see each other a lot, but my kids were still young, and they were still home. So David’s relationship at that time suited my life. But five years later, things need to change and [if] they don’t, it’s time to move on. But I have no regrets.” Dolores added that she gave the relationship her best shot, but things did not change when she wanted them to, which is why she decided it was time to move on.
Following her split from David, Dolores is currently in a brewing romance with a man she previously showed off on Instagram. During the interview, she opened up about the new man in her life. The reality television star disclosed that she is very happy in her new relationship and described her new beau as an amazing person. Dolores also disclosed her experiences in RHONJ season 12. She said her own storyline in the series’ new season will “show a lot of change in her life.” Dolores revealed that during filming, she received a call that her mom needed open heart surgery and had a bumpy road from then on as her family went through so much.
The Real Housewives Of New Jersey star’s split from her longtime boyfriend David was certainly a surprise to many. However, with Dolores confirming that they had an amicable breakup, there will most likely be no feud between the couple in the future. It is also good that the reality star has moved on since her split. Dolores is doing her best to keep her new man under wraps so as not to jinx their relationship, but her fans hope to see more of him soon. Meanwhile, her fans will be waiting to see the tough experiences her family went through in the new season of the show and hope they eventually pull through.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
