The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star’s boyfriend, Paul “Paulie” Connell, tells Page Six exclusively that police discovered Catania’s smashed car in Linden.
“The car was involved in a chase and the occupants of the car crashed into a pole,” Connell says. “We believe there were arrests made when the car finally came to a stop, but not sure of the exact details.”
He adds, “The car is totaled. It looks like possibly one of the occupants was injured — or two of them.”
Catania, 51, went to see if the thieves had left any of her belongings behind, but Connell reveals there was “nothing left” in the vehicle.
“On the flip side, we are currently out car shopping,” Connell says. “She wants to make sure that people know, always lock your cars and keep your key fobs stored in a safe place.”
Connell also shared with us footage of the totaled car that shows just how smashed the front of the Porsche was.
Page Six broke the news that Catania’s luxe car was stolen from Connell’s home in Edgewater, NJ, last weekend.
“Dolores is determined to find her car with the help of authorities,” an insider told Page Six exclusively, adding that a police report had been filed in Bergen County.
“She is aggravated but also really shaken up over the fact that someone would steal it right out of Paulie’s driveway,” the source continued.
“He didn’t give her a ring, so she didn’t move in [with him], but he just got her a Porsche,” Jackie Goldschneider said to the group, to which her husband, Evan, quipped back, “It means, ‘I’m just going to get you a car instead of a ring.’”
Dolores Catania seems certain that Teresa Giudice can mend her fractured relationship with brother Joe Gorga and his wife, Melissa Gorga.
The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star, 51, chatted with Page Six at BravoCon this weekend, revealing a sweet moment fans may have missed during a supersized “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” taping that aired Sunday night.
“It was a glimpse of hope when Teresa was on the stage and [Joe] was looking at her and he was clapping, looking up at her,” Catania exclusively told Page Six. “I saw a little softness going on there.”
Giudice’s longstanding feud with the Gorgas reignited this summer after the notorious table-flipper brought up unfounded claims that Melissa, 43, cheated on Joe, 48, with actor Nick Barrotta. (The couple has vehemently denied the allegations.)
An explosive interaction between the trio ensued at a party that was filmed for the Season 13 finale. Given the drama, the Gorgas decided to skip Giudice’s Aug. 6 nuptials to her now-husband, Luis “Louie” Ruelas.
Sources tell Page Six thoughtful producers made the adjustment so…
However, she also expressed optimism that the two parties would eventually patch things up.
“I wouldn’t say this is terminal yet, if I were to speak in medical terms,” the former surgical assistant explained at the time. “I’ve seen people come back from a lot worse.”
Addressing the infidelity speculation, Catania said she “would never believe such a thing” about Melissa and Joe’s marriage. She also stated that she found the mounting discord “very sad” as she is friends with all involved.

The Gorgas participated in the first “RHONJ” panel, while Giudice took the BravoCon stage for the second.
Sources tell Page Six thoughtful producers made the adjustment so…
The “RHONJ” cast was split into two panels at BravoCon due to the current conflict between Giudice and the Gorgas.
Saturday’s first “RHONJ” panel at BravoCon featured the Gorgas, Margaret Josephs and her husband, Joe Benigno, and Jackie Goldschneider and her husband, Evan Goldschneider.
Giudice and Ruelas, 47, as well as Jennifer Aydin and her husband, Dr. Bill Aydin, and Catania and her ex-husband, Frank Catania, participated in the second panel.
“Real Housewives” mastermind Andy Cohen said during a Sunday “Ask Andy” panel that it was “better” to keep the Garden State crew separated because of the contention — and to not spoil the show’s forthcoming installment.
“We’re on the precipice for a really great season of ‘New Jersey’ airing, so we’re in a really limbo-y place where if we bring them all out together, they’re in a different place than they were the last time we saw them all as a group,” Cohen told fans.
“It’s a balancing act because you want things to play out on TV, but here we are, and I want to give everyone a good time, so it’s a little bit of a juggling act.”
