NextImg:RHONJ’s Dolores Catania admits to Ozempic use: ‘I got on the bandwagon’

Dolores Catania hopped on the Ozempic “bandwagon.”

The “Real Housewives of New Jersey” star told “Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen” viewers Tuesday that she has been using semaglutide for weight loss for six weeks.

The Bravolebrity joked that “not one” of her co-stars isn’t also taking Ozempic.

“I wasn’t going to come to the reunion looking any bigger than anyone else, so I got on the bandwagon,” she said.

When Andy Cohen asked about Catania’s side effects, she replied, “Just not hungry.”

The reality star clarified that she is “actually [taking] Mounjaro,” claiming the medication is “another part” of the Ozempic branch.

Catania agreed when her fellow “WWHL” guest, Marysol Patton, called Mounjaro “the amped-up version, the fast forward to Skinnyville.”

The entrepreneur, who added that she prides herself on “tell[ing] the truth,” explained, “The reunion is in two weeks. I do have a trainer.”

Fans had mixed reactions to Catania’s confession via Twitter.

One user called her Ozempic use “unhealthy and triggering,” while another referred to it as “selfish” amid shortages of the drug for those who need it to treat Type 2 diabetes.

Others found Catania’s honesty “refreshing” and praised Cohen, 54, for not “buying into the whole new gym routine and watching what I eat BS certain people” in the franchise stand by.

“They are on tv, heavily scrutinized for their appearance, of course they’d take a weight loss peptide if available,” one fan noted.

Catania’s co-stars have been showing off their weight loss in recent weeks, with Jennifer Fessler hinting at Ozempic use in March.

On Tuesday, Margaret Josephs revealed she shed 22 pounds on peptides and hormonal replacement therapy.

Jackie Goldschneider, however, slammed Housewives for using the drug in a February episode of Page Six’s “Virtual Reali-Tea” podcast.

“It gets me so fired up,” the “RHONJ” star said. “I’m horrified by it.”
