By many accounts, season 15 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey could include Dolores Catania, along with a few returning ladies and some new faces. Recently, the longtime Bravo star opened up about discussions about a reunion between
It appears that Teresa and Melissa are moving closer to resolving their issues. Teresa stated in September that she’d be willing to move forward, and Melissa and
Dolores recently spoke to Page Six’s Virtual Reali-Tea and was asked if she would be willing to play mediator between the feuding sisters-in-law. She said, “I think that’s a good idea since I know them and they’re both very close to me, and I would love to be a mediator as long as they don’t kill me in the meantime.”
She continued, “But I’ve always been an advocate of the two of them being together.”
Gia Giudice was then asked about the idea of Dolores mediating. She said, “Honestly, I love Dolo, and she knows I love her so much. I think this is something that just needs to be, you know, between my mom and her brother and between the four of them, and they’ll figure it out.”
In other news, Dolores spoke to Newsweek in October 2025 and gave an update on her status with The Real Housewives of Rhode Island. The RHONJ star and podcast host said, “You’ll see some of me on it. A little cameo here and there.”
Currently, there is no announced release date for the new addition to the Housewives franchise, but filming has wrapped. It is widely assumed that the show could be announced at BravoCon. Filming is said to have concluded in September.
Explosive Secrets Unleashed as Remy’s Dark Past Comes to Light — Deacon Faces a Game-Changing Decision!

As the episode began, Deke was blindsided as Electra expressed her horror that Remy, of all people, is his boyfriend. “It’s really good to see you,” Remy told his victim. Bro, no. Just no. Read the room. Will was ready to lunge at Remy when an utterly confused Deke finally asked how Electra knew his beau. Only then did Remy’s dark secret begin to come out. “What are you not telling me?”

Remy’s Secret Comes Out at Last
Remy explained to Deke that he and Electra had been besties in high school and he’d moved to L.A. to be near her. Nuh-uh, that wasn’t the part that Will wanted Remy to cop to. “Tell Deke how you used and traumatized Electra,” Will ordered. “I was a different person back then,” Remy sobbed.
When Remy’s account of what had transpired wasn’t explicit enough, Electra, Ivy and Katie filled in the blanks, making it clear to Deke that his honey had released fake nudes of the jewelry designer on the internet. “I didn’t want to lose her,” Remy cried. He wanted to get her other friends to turn their backs on her, so he could be her only one.

On the plus side, Remy tried to say, Electra left for L.A. because of his actions, and hey, that had worked out pretty well, hadn’t it? Yeah, no. That diversion wasn’t gonna cut it. She then reminded Remy that when she’d found the stalker wall in his apartment, he’d chased her “like an animal.”
In other words, as Will put it to Deke, “Remy’s not the person you think.”

Brooke Ordered the Recap Special at Il Giardino
At Il Giardino, Brooke told Deacon that she was there to check on him and talk about the “Lope” wedding. When she gleaned that he was thinking of reuniting with Sheila, she gasped, “Deacon, no! Why?” Brooke then reminded him that his wife had lied to him. So how on earth could he take her back? “Taylor,” he said, adding that she’d, ahem,

When Brooke pushed, Deacon shoved back, metaphorically speaking, and insisted that Sheila was what he wanted — even if that meant he’d soon be given the third degree by Deke and Hope. Talk then turned to Deke and his welcome-to-Forrester party.
Sheila Awkwardly Thanked Taylor
In Taylor’s office, she was distracted from updating her notes on Deacon with daydreams about her patient. Just then, in walked Sheila like she owned the place. “Deacon came home,” she said, “and it’s all because of you.” She wasn’t looking for insight into her husband, she just wanted to thank Taylor for taking her marriage in her “capable, caring hands. It’s quite evident that you made an impact on Deacon.”

“Whatever Deacon chose, that was his choice,” Taylor insisted. Nevertheless, Sheila wasn’t done fawning all over the shrink she only recently threatened to murder. She went on to blather about how sexy her husband is — a “bonafide catch” — and admit that she’d worried he’d turn to someone else. In turn, Taylor reassured Sheila that Deacon adored her.

Remy Pleaded for Forgiveness
In the episode’s final moments, Sheila told Taylor she’d have to be on her best behavior from here on out. Mm-hmm. And
Before Brooke left the eatery, she got in one last crack about how she’d hoped Taylor would make Deacon see that there are other women out there. Oh, judging from his and Taylor’s his-and-hers daydreams about one another, it’s safe to say that the doc opened his eyes to different possibilities.

A tearful Remy admitted that he did what Ivy & Co. said he did. “But I was struggling with who I was back then… I was going through some kind of breakdown,” he suggested. “I’m so sorry, Electra. Just please hear me out.” Nah. Nobody was gonna do that. “All I want is a second chance,” he told Electra. “Can you look into that big heart and forgive me? I’m begging you.”
Maybe it’s just the way Christian Weissmann is playing it, but isn’t it weirdly easier to feel sorry for Remy than it’s ever been for Luna? Then again, he didn’t murder two people and engage in a daycare shootout.
