Dolores Catania Reacts to Joe Gorga Insulting Her Boyfriend Paulie: "I Mean..."
The RHONJ 'Wife also revealed where Paulie Connell and Joe Gorga stand today.
Dolores Catania may be neutral in most of the drama on The Real Housewives of New Jersey, but she's taking sides when it comes to a comment that Joe Gorga made about her boyfriend, Paul "Paulie" Connell.
In case you missed it, the RHONJ husbands split up and either went to Joe Gorga's house or Luis "Louie" Ruelas' home for separate guys' nights on Season 14, Episode 12 (which aired on July 29). Bill Aydin and Paulie decided to go to Louie's house, while the rest of the husbands went to Joe Gorga's home.
While discussing the event at Louie's house, Joe Gorga made a pointed comment about the guys who decided to go there.
"Scumbags hang out with f-cking scumbags," he told his guests Frank Catania, John Fuda, Joe Benigno, and Jeff Fessler after questioning Paulie and Bill for not seeing "that side of Louie."
Fast-forward to the August 4 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, and Dolores shared her reaction to what Joe Gorga said.
"That wasn't nice. It really wasn't," she admitted about the "scumbag" comment, but with the clarification that she's already moved on from it. "But, I mean, are we gonna pick apart every single thing?"
Dolores also wasn't as affected by the comment because she "know[s] Louie, Bill, and Paul are not scumbags."
"I mean, that could go both ways also, so let's keep it there," she added.

Though Dolores wasn't totally pleased with Joe Gorga's name-calling, her beau is on "good" terms with the dad of three these days.
"I mean, they're good," she said on WWHL about Paulie's relationship with Joe Gorga. "They've never had a problem."
Paulie, who was in the audience, agreed with Dolores. "It's always great," he said.
RHONJ Season 14 may have concluded with a last supper at Rails Steakhouse, but Dolores and fellow cast members Teresa Giudice, Melissa Gorga, Margaret Josephs, Rachel Fuda, Danielle Cabral, Jennifer Aydin, and friends Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Fessler will be getting together one last time at the aforementioned Jersey restaurant for a gathering. Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Off the Rails post-finale special on Sunday, August 11 at 8/7c on Bravo. Stream the next day on Peacock.
