Bravo’s new trailer for Season 13 of “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” promises plenty of drama and heartbreak. Set to the sounds of a cover of Olivia Newton-John’s “Magic,” the first clips of the new season tease more than a few surprises. Although we’re sure that the new season will feature plenty of entertaining moments, the most shocking scene for many viewers was the obvious tension between Dolores and Frank Catania, who seem to be at odds with each other over their fractured friendship.
“People think Frank’s the man in my life, he’s not,” Dolores can be heard saying in the trailer. While in the past, the former married couple never had an issue with their respective partners, it looks like Dolores’ relationship with Paulie Connell may be causing a wedge. “I miss our relationship, let’s fix it,” Frank says later in the trailer, to which the fitness entrepreneur replies, “There’s nothing to fix, Frank.” Toward the end of the teaser, Paulie tells Dolores he’s not trying to “step in Frank’s place” before it cuts to Frank opening up about his hurt feelings. “It’s almost like you’re off limits … No, no, it’s our family… It’s the four of us. I’m going to start crying,” he tells Dolores over dinner.

The trailer comes a few months after Frank informed US Weekly that he wasn’t on the best terms with Paulie. “We’re not on the best of terms because Paul is not used to the dynamic between Dolores and me,” he explained. “The Real Housewives of New Jersey” Season 13 will begin airing on Bravo and Peacock on February 7, 2023.
