Everyone knows how Caroline Manzo was fiercely devoted to her family. The Real Housewives of New Jersey alum shared a special bond with her youngest child, daughter Lauren Manzo. And RHONJ viewers watched Lauren fall in love with Vito Scalia, her brother Albie Manzo’s college roommate. Eventually, the couple wed. However, their union fell apart, and now Vito is moving on.
Vito Scalia has a girlfriend
In July 2015, Lauren and Vito tied the knot. They currently share their six-year-old daughter, Marchesa.
Then Vito filed for divorce in September 2023. The court documents stated, “The parties have experienced irreconcilable differences for a period of at least six months … and it is apparent that the marriage should be dissolved as there is no reasonable prospect of reconciliation.”
Lauren spoke about the impending divorce on social media. “I just want to let you guys know we’re all good. This has been done for a very long time,” she explained. “This is something that we did together.”
According to The Daily Mail, Vito has been dating Dominique Valenti. His relationship with the entrepreneur dates back to at least August 2023, when Vito first appeared on her Instagram. It is common for Dominique to post glowing messages about Vito on social media.
For his birthday in March 2024, Dominique posted a cute photo of them on Instagram. “Happy Birthday to the most amazing gift I ever received! You’re simply the best and there is no other way to put it! Anyone that knows you loves you and if they don’t…….. definitely their loss,” she wrote. “Thank you for being my best friend!”
Vito’s new lady has also included him in posts about her daughter, who suffers from the rare genetic disorder Prader-Willi Syndrome. “You make the best out of life every day!” Dominique said of Vito. “I appreciate your help, your love, and your presence and the fact that you’re totally a Disney Dad!”
It’s nice to see a couple so happy and in love.
Season 14 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Sundays at 8/7con Bravo.
