Who Is RHONJ’s Paul Connell’s Ex-Wife Joanne? Divorce Updates Amid Dolores Catania Relationship

RHONJ star Dolores Catania and boyfriend Paul ‘Paulie’ Connell have discussed engagement plans, but he’s still legally married. Meet his ex-wife, Joanne.

Dolores’ costar Margaret Josephs revealed that he is not legally divorced from his ex-wife, Joanne Connell, during season 13 and fans have since wanted to learn more about the Rockland County resident. Filmed in April 2023, Paulie confirmed that Margaret’s statement was true and that his divorce was “in the works.” While revealing that Dolores is the “first woman” he brought around his kids since he and Joanne separated 14 years ago. “I’m so happy that these boys chose me to be their dad, while I’m not perfect, I will do everything that I can to make sure above and beyond they get a fair chance in life, they give it their best and they never second-guess themselves,” he wrote via Instagram in June 2024 alongside photos of his sons and his late father.
