Dolores Catania’s son, Frankie Catania Jr., proposed to his girlfriend, Nicole Perricho, Saturday.

Perricho announced the exciting news by sharing pictures of Frankie — whose mom is “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star Dolores Catania — getting down on one knee at Saint Patrick’s Cathedral in New York City.

“2.22.25 ♥️,” the nurse captioned the photos via Instagram Sunday.

After Frankie, 26, proposed, he presented Perricho with a massive bouquet of white roses while they received a blessing from the priest.

The newly engaged couple continued celebrating their engagement by hugging, kissing and holding hands for a photographer outside the church.

Frankie later brought Perricho to a surprise engagement party with some of their friends and family members at Rocco Steakhouse.

Frankie’s parents, Dolores and Frank Sr. Catania, and his sister, Gabby Catania, were all present for the proposal and congratulated the couple.

“Sooooo beautiful !!! ❤️❤️,” Dolores, 54, commented under Perricho’s post.

Meanwhile, Gabby celebrated the engagement by posting pictures of her brother down on one knee and her soon-to-be sister-in-law showing off the massive rock.

“THATS MY SEEEEESTER !!!!! ❤️,” she captioned the Instagram Story.

Dolores and Frank — who have been divorced since 1998 but remain close friends — also brought their respective partners, Paulie Connell and Brittany Mattessich, to the engagement party.

“We are so excited for this beautiful couple @frank.catania & @nicoleperricho 🤍🤍 overwhelmed with joy that Frankie has found such an incredible partner we could not be happier 🤍🙏🏻💍 we love you both so much and wish you nothing but happiness and love in this next chapter 🤍🤍,” Mattessich captioned photos of herself and Frank with the couple.

Connell also posted photos with Frankie and Perricho kissing outside the church, walking into the steakhouse and smiling with their family members.

“Words cannot express the joy of watching the Catania family grow,” Connell captioned his Instagram post Sunday. “It was truly heartwarming to witness the love between two amazing young people, @frank.catania & @nicoleperricho in such a classic setting.”

Connell gushed that the entire day was “filled with love and happiness” and “warmth and celebration.”

It’s unclear when Frankie and Perricho began dating, but she went Instagram-official with him in December 2023 when she posted a picture of them attending a holiday party together.
