RHOC star Katie Ginella sued by man in $5 million lawsuit over alleged stolen 'Golf Shot' idea as she's accused of committing 'fraud'


According to court documents obtained by DailyMail.com, Katie, 40, was listed as a defendant in the California lawsuit that was filed on July 31.

In March 2023, in a group text message, per the docs, 'Ruskey provided Dolores and George with an update on his progress for the benefit of the Partnership, specifically regarding his work with securing a domain, social media account, and further employing his designer to create branding.' While Ginella's relationship with husband and wife George and Dolores Salman is unclear, the Real Housewives star apparently wanted to use her fame on RHOC to help promote the 'Golf Shot.' Tee Shots, LLC, was then formed by the Salmans and the former golf reporter, which Ruskey alleges was a 'calculated move to further their fraudulent scheme while attempting to shield the identities of the true owners involved in the theft.'
