Caroline Manzo and Dolores Catania are still as thick as thieves all these years later.
The two longtime friends hung out this weekend in Los Angeles where they got dinner, had drinks, and so on.
Dolores documented the outing on Instagram, captioning a group of photos, “Back in LaLa Land ? ? Nothing like palm trees & good friends ?.”

A day later, the Real Housewives of New Jersey OG posted several photos of her and Dolores while gushing about their long-standing friendship.
“Back home from a quick trip to L.A. where I Met some new friends and spent some time with one of my oldest ones. We are an unlikely pair @dolorescatania but our friendship has stood the test of time,” Caroline wrote.

For years, the idea of Caroline returning to RHONJ has been swirling around social media with Caroline even admitting she’d be open to coming back to the show as a full-time Housewife.
“Caroline loved the good moments on RHONJ and would be very open to coming back to the show full-time, but only as a full-time wife. It doesn’t matter to her who’s in the cast, as long as Bravo comes correct, meaning a good offer and not a friend, she’d be very interested in considering returning to the show,” an insider told HollywoodLife in 2020.
In the last year alone, RHONJ stars Melissa Gorga, Jackie Goldschneider, and Margaret Josephs have all said they want Caroline back on the show.
Now the question is – Will Bravo listen and bring Caroline back? Only time will tell.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Tuesdays at 8 p.m. ET/PT.
