Dolores Catania Addresses If Frank Catania Is Her "Real Soul Mate"

The RHONJ cast member just revealed something about her ex that made Andy Cohen say, "Wow."

By Laura Rosenfeld

Dolores Catania's continued closeness with her ex-husband, Frank Catania, has been a major topic of conversation on The Real Housewives of New Jersey since she first joined the cast in Season 7. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 premiere May 5th at 8/9c on Bravo and stream next day on Peacock.

When Dolores began a relationship with boyfriend David Principe, the fascination with her personal life only intensified. In fact, Frank and David even formed a close bond of their own.

So, when Dolores appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen on March 10, her fellow guest, comedian and Bravo superfan Heather McMahan, asked the New Jersey Housewife the question we've all been wondering: "Dolores, you know I love you more than anything, but I genuinely think Frank is your real soul mate. How do you feel about that?"

"I don't believe in all this soul mate stuff, but he is definitely a part of me that will always be there, and I do love him to death," Dolores set the record straight in the above clip. "I love him. I've spoken to him already four times today."

Heather followed that up with perhaps an even more important question about Frank: "What does he smell like?"

In case you're curious, Dolores gave a very descriptive answer. "He's the cleanest man in the world. He takes four showers a day," she said, a new bit of info that made Andy Cohen say, "Wow." Dolores added, "Frank smells like sawdust in the gym, but yet it's clean."

The RHONJ revelations didn't end there. When Heather admitted her love for Margaret Josephs' husband, Joe Benigno, Dolores seconded that emotion. "Oh, I'm so hot for Joe Benigno, you don't even know," Dolores shared. "Ask Margaret. Like, it's crazy."

There is so much still to learn about the RHONJ guys!
