RHONJ's Dina Manzo's ex-husband is charged in assault

I always knew this trash Jersey family had mafia mob ties.

Weren't there gay rumors about Thomas Manzo?

It was supposedly why Dina divorced him.

R2 Yes; he supposedly had a long term boyfriend and he and Dina had an "understanding."

He's not bad looking.

Definitely looks like a mobster, though.

Wait. I haven't watched this bs in years and years. Memory serving, Dina and Caroline are sisters who married Manzo bros, right? Caroline's husband - what's the scoop on him?

Yes, Dina and Caroline married two of the Manzo brothers., and Jacqueline was married to the third one.

I think it was revealed a few years ago that Caroline's husband has had a long term mistress.

Caroline's father-in-law, Al "Tiny" Manzo Sr., was an enforcer for the Genovese family. He was killed in a mob hit and found stuffed in the trunk of his car after marinating there a couple of weeks. His corpse was so bloated that it took two days to pry it out of the trunk.

Jacqueline is married to Chris Laurita, Dina and Caroline's brother, R6.

R8 Oh, that's right. I knew there was some other family ties there.

THANKS!

- R5

That's gross, R7!

Why would his son ever want to follow in his father's footsteps, knowing what happened to him?

R11 Once you're in the mob, it's impossible to get out. Death is your only way to exit.

So are you saying that Albert Manzo (Caroline's husband) is also connected to the mafia?

Because he's Thomas' brother.

R13 Hell, yes. That "banquet hall" he runs is shady as hell.

Let me tell you someting bout my fambly. We are a tick as teevs!

Rofl R15!

The first time I saw the promos for RHONJ with Caroline talking like that, I just started cracking up.

She was like a caricature of a NJ mob wife.

Such an odd show, Caroline is disturbing.

She still looks good

For you, R15.

"Manzo" sounds ghetto.

Carol Manzo is frau. She looked decades older than her fellow housewives and served as a wicked, gutter version of Mrs. Garrett.

r20 I agree. Even "Ragu" sounds classier.

Caroline is one of the few Housewives in all the franchises who has her original boobs.

R21 Agreed. Caroline only signed on to do the show after Dolores dropped out at the last minute. The original lineup was supposed to be Dina, Jacqueline, Teresa, Dolores, and Danielle.

I think I also read somewhere that Tiny's dick had been cut off and shoved down his throat.

Stay out of Italian people's business!!!

The only thing any of those scummy RH people are good for is to show decent people that there really are people you are better than.

R23 And they're already down to her knees!

Dina was my favorite. I stopped watching as much when she left. I thought she was gorgeous, a good mom, and sweet personality. There was a scene where she was driving her black-on-black SL down the parkway to meet the prostitution whore. She had the top down and her hair was whipping around her face. She had had it with the show after that. BTW that is a good picture of Tommy. He's butt ugly and the Fredo of the Manzo family. I wonder if she's talking to Caroline again. I never understood why they fell out. I thought they were thick as thieves.

Caroline's son, Albie, had his college admission to Fordham in the Bronx purchased and then his admission to Seton Hall Law School was also purchased with mob cash. He flunked out of law school. Albie is not the brightest bulb.

Caroline is also good friends with Bernie Kerik, the corrupt NYC Police Commis under Giuliani. Another right wing criminal convict.

These are people who pretend to be hard working, but they have much more cash and properties than most hard working people because most of what they have is tax free and/or stolen.

Such good Roman Catholic Italians.

I hope he does prison time the scumbag.

R29 They fell out when Caroline's husband's brother tried to have Dina's boyfriend whacked. Just maybe Dina had a problem with that and didn't get much sympathy from her sister?

My family is as dumb as thieves.

Right. Has Albie come out of the closet yet? He's got to be 40 by now.

Whatever happened to Caroline's fat daughter who was too stupid to go to college and ended up having a nail booth in the corner of a hair salon?

I remember there was an episode of the show where Caroline was trying like mad to hook Albie up with Billy Joel and Christie Brinkley's fugly daughter. Albie was not having it.

Alexa Ray got all over Billy's looks and none of Christie's. I thought she was exotic looking and pretty. But Albie treated her like dog shit. She didn't deserve to be humiliated by that smug little guido. I've heard Alexa is truly a sweet person. I bet Christie Brinkley was pissed! Caroline should have given Albie a good kick in his Italian ass over what he did to her but he can do no wrong in her eyes. I think she said something like "she's using you" for her singing career or something.

Caroline wanted Albie to hook up with Alexa Ray so badly because she knew it would bring the family into contact with the Hollywood elite and extend their fame and that it would also give Albie financial security, since she knew he was too stupid to make it on his own.

But Caroline never considered Albie might like the cock better than the gash.

R31 are you serious?

[quote] I wonder if she's talking to Caroline again. I never understood why they fell out. I thought they were thick as thieves.

R29, let me tell you sumthin' about my fambily...

Oh yes.. Albie much more prefers a hot dog than a taco

Albie takes after his Uncle Thomas.

To give him some credit though, at least he doesn't have a beard like Thomas does.

Albie knows what he likes, and he isn't going to "fake kiss" a female, just to make everyone happy. I think he's just going to go the "life long bachelor" route.

R34 i have a daughter named Markie that people make fun of on instagram and it triggers me

[quote]Whatever happened to Caroline's fat daughter who was too stupid to go to college and ended up having a nail booth in the corner of a hair salon?

With the stupidest fucking name: CAFFACE.

Oh I remember that daughter! She was a doughy thing. I remember she wore a slouchy beanie like it was cool or something. I always felt a little sad for her because Albie was their mother’s clear favorite.

The daughter got gastric sleeve and got married, now with a kid. She owns a couple of beauty bars in Jersey. Mob money is always around to fund these "dreams". The family has blood money invested all over the state.

Albie has a guido muscle boyfriend these days.

R44 Albie has a boyfriend? More details, please. And pictures!

Whatever happened to that gay guy who used to hang around with the Manzo boys?

If Albie has a "guido muscle boyfriend" now, he must have totally had the hots for Frankie Catania.

I'll bet that's just his type.

Bunch of fucking mobsters.

R46 I wanna lick Frankie's perky nipple.

[quote] I wanna lick Frankie's perky nipple -Albie

Looks like it!

R44, is R49 the guy you think is Albie's guido musclehead boyfriend?

Remember when Mama was so proud of their boys because they had come up with a genius idea to open a strip club/car wash. Wonderful! (said Caroline). Of course it never got off the ground.

R51 And don't forget about the black water business!

So then they're ALL mobsters? "The Real Mob Wives of NJ" The last time I saw this show was when the Lauritas were having behavior problems with their young adult daughter and she went to stay with her Dad somewhere out west? Is that right? What's going on with this couple and the Joe and Melissa bunch?

Yes, their out of control bitch daughter went to live with her dad for a while - I can't remember if it was in Vegas or somewhere in California.

Apparently, she's matured and has become a responsible young adult now. But who knows for sure.

R44 is Greg Bennett the Manzos token gay

R49. That is not Albie's boyfriend. It was a guy named of all things Tony from Towaco, NJ...sounds so guido. This was in 2018, so I don't know the update of today, sorry. His family installed alarm systems in luxury cars. I might have been a customer, just saying, but afraid to say more.

How fat is Crittafur these days?

R56 So are you telling me that as a customer of Tony's family's business, you had conversations with Tony and have knowledge of his relationship with Albie?

R57 He can't even fit through doors anymore. He's just plopped in Caroline's kitchen, eating ham.

I knew that banquet hall was shady.

It's a money-laundering business. They have these halls to hold "celebrations" and then all of these mob businesses can be hired and paid for the services that are either bloated or never rendered.

Rent the halls and services in cash, then redistribute the money to the 'businesses' providing the food, DJs, sound, decor, alcohol, photography, ice carvings, etc.

Sure, they have some actual celebrations too. But it's really money laundering. That's my take at least.

All these gay guidos remind me of the Joey Comunale case.

remember when that stupid bitch Caroline had her own radio show? what were they thinking?

i'm waiting to hear what Danielle has to say

Prostitution whores!

Albie should get together with the gay Gotti brother.

Sad.

R58. I knew them both at the time.

R67 is Tony good looking? Masculine?

I was thinking that the tall friend who used to live with them was Albie's boyfriend, and he's kind of fem. So I'm assuming that Albie is into fem guys.

But you never know.

R67 So are you telling us you know definitively they're boyfriends, or are you assuming they are?

You wouldn't happen to be Christopher Manzo, would you?

No, not related to any Manzo. The boyfriend was very butch, more than Albie. Typical Italian gym body you see all over Jersey and Staten Island, big muscles with some steriod help most likely.

A few years ago somebody here claimed they hooked up with Chris in a steam room.

R70 So do you know that they Albie and Guido Muscles are boyfriends, or are you just assuming they are?

THEY were in 2018, I am not that close and do not stay in touch.

R73 So has Albie officially come out, or is he on the DL?

Albie and Chris are both in the mafia closet

Albie's beard from back in the day. I don't think he bothers anymore. He is also a gay rights advocate, go figure.

R70 here. Think Brett Caprioni formerly of Vanderpump Rules for the type of muscle guido Albie was special friends with in 2018. That type of guy.

R77 Sounds hot. Good for Albie. So do you know for sure they were lovers?

Brett Caprioni. God I love Italians.

They're all mobbed up. Remember when two teen boys were found shot dead in Kim DiPaolo's son's car? Kim didn't even bother to hide her connections. But haven't heard much from her lately.

She's busy being a piece of shit coke-whore home-wrecker, everyday, R80.

Oops they weren't teens. "Aaron Anderson, 27, and Antonio Vega Jr., 25,"

"The two bodies were so badly burned, investigators could not immediately determine the race or sex of the victims. While the 2015 Audi is registered to Kim DePaola, the vehicle was mostly used by her son,"

I used to live in Bay Ridge. One night an Escalade was set on fire outside my apartment. Fire trucks never showed up. It's the mob way. Assume there were dead guys in there.

I guess based on the details of Albie's boyfriend, he's a BOTTOM.

Hey R70/R77, are any of these guys Albie's boyfriend?

Does Caroline know that Albie's gay?

The gay is strong in the Manzo family.

Both the Manzos and the Lauritas have gay men in their families.

Caroline's brother Jamie is gay, and apparently Albert's brother Thomas is gay (although closeted).

Makes sense that one of their kids would be gay too.

R70, can you answer R83?

The guy on the far left is HOT.

R70 No, his boyfriend is not in that picture. sorry
