The dust has settled on The Traitors Season 3, and Real Housewives of New Jersey star Dolores Catania emerged as a fan favorite, standing tall among the final four Faithfuls. The gripping finale saw the remaining players split a jaw-dropping $204,300 prize pot, with each walking away with $51,075. For Dolores, the winnings were more than just a paycheck—they were a chance to make a difference.
“I filled out the paperwork, and the money hit my account the next day,” Dolores shared with Us Weekly. But what she did with her share left Bravo fans in awe. “I donated to a few of the shelters I work with and causes close to my heart,” she revealed, showcasing the generosity that has endeared her to viewers across reality TV.
In the intense final moments of The Traitors, Dolores stood by the Fire of Truth, casting her vote with unwavering conviction. “I am a Faithful, and that’s how I want to leave,” she declared to her castmates. The group’s decision to trust one another paid off, cementing their bond and splitting the prize evenly.
Now back in New Jersey, Dolores reflects on her Scottish castle adventure with heartfelt nostalgia. “I miss The Traitors every single day,” she admitted. “It was the most amazing experience of my entire life. You can’t imagine how incredible it was.”
But this reality TV queen isn’t ready to hang up her competitive hat just yet. When asked about her bucket list, Dolores didn’t hesitate. “Dancing with the Stars—I’m here for it,” she confessed. “Ballroom dancing has been my dream since I was a kid, and my mom always wanted me to do it. It’s tough, but I’m ready.” She also threw in a daring pick: “Special Forces: World’s Toughest Test. I know it’s crazy to even say it, but I love a challenge.”
While fans speculate about her next move, Dolores has been spotted filming with the cast of the upcoming Real Housewives of Rhode Island. With RHONJ on pause, rumors are swirling about a potential jump to the new franchise. Could Dolores be trading Jersey drama for Rhode Island glamour? Only time will tell.
