He speaking facts !!! 😁😁😁 #RHONJ https://t.co/4ONEf0TS1stom@thom_ahsPaul is 100% right about Frank. His attachment to Dolores is unhealthy. It’s fine to be close to an ex spouse, healthy even… but the degree to which Frank is freaking out over Dolores’ new man when he himself has a new girlfriend is so unhealthy and damaging truly. #RHONJPaul is 100% right about Frank.
