Dolores Catania is making her way up the East Coast.
It was announced at BravoCon 2025 that The Real Housewives of New Jersey star would appear on The Real Housewives of Rhode Island in a “friend of” role, thanks to her connection to new Housewife Liz McGraw.
Along with Dolores and Liz, the upcoming show will star Alicia Carmody, Rosie DiMare, Ashley Iaconetti (of Bachelor Nation), Rulla Nehme Pontarelli, Kelsey Swanson and Jo-Ellen Tiberi.
Bravo officially announced in May that RHORI was gearing up to be their 11th Real Housewives franchise. Rumors about Dolores’ involvement started swirling shortly thereafter, and Andy Cohen played coy to Us Weekly exclusively in May about her involvement.
