Vito Scalia has a new woman in his life.
According to a new social media report, Vito, 38, has moved on from his marriage to Lauren Manzo, 36, with wellness coach Dominique Valenti. And while he was quite private about his relationship with Lauren, whom he split from last year, the Real Housewives of New Jersey alum is making his new relationship no secret.
In a video shared on TikTok by YouKnowNat, loving photos and videos of Vito and his new girlfriend were seen, including pics of their children together and tribute posts dating back to August 2023.

Although Vito and Lauren didn’t confirm the news of their rumored split until October of last year, when Vito filed for divorce, Nat shared that Vito was “apparently” already dating his current girlfriend at the time.
Nat went on to say that Dominique’s daughter has a rare genetic disorder called Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS), which is known to cause small hands and feet, and other abnormal growth and body composition, and that Vito had gone to the Capitol to speak about the condition with her, supporting her advocacy work.
Vito and his girlfriend also traveled to Florida to visit a doctor and Disneyland, which she spoke of in an Instagram post.
“I appreciate the help of my partner, best friend, love of my life!” Dominique gushed. “You make the best out of life [every day]! You wake up happy and your soul is just pure love! I appreciate your help, your love, and your presence and the fact that you’re totally Disney Dad!”
Dominique also honored Vito with a Father’s Day post, saying she was “blessed to enjoy more time with [him]” and thanking him for everything he’s done for her and her daughter.
Additionally, Nat noted that Vito had been seen in recent social media videos with Lauren, seemingly confirming that they are co-parenting their seven-year-old daughter Marchesa, aka”Markie,” well with one another.
At the time of their divorce announcement, Lauren spoke out on social media, telling her fans and followers that Markie was their priority.
“Vito and I love and respect each other and we continue to move forward as a family,” she shared. “All that matters to us is that our daughter is happy and healthy. Her privacy is important to us. We haven’t been on TV in seven years, which is why we did not feel the need for some dramatic announcement. And we continue to move forward with love and respect for each other. And we will always be a family, and that’s it. It’s about our daughter and her privacy because she didn’t ask to be on TV — we did.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 14 airs Sundays at 9/8c on Bravo.
