Danielle Staub and Olivier Maier: It’s Over! Already!

The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Danielle Staub got engaged to Olivier Maier after just weeks of dating, and just months after her last divorce. On Monday, just days after their engagement, they were scheduled to be married — but wisely postponed. Now, it turns out that the two have already broken up . This is … absolutely nuts. Danielle Staub met Olivier Maier late last year through a mutual friend who was dating him at the time. In late February, just months after her split from Martey Caffrey and just a few days after that divorce was finalized, she revealed that she was dating Olivier. Days later, the couple announced that they were engaged. This was Danielle’s twenty-first-engagement. They weren’t messing around about taking things slow, either, and set their wedding date for Monday — by which we mean March 4. But Danielle wisely postponed the wedding … and that’s not all. According to what a source tells Us Weekly , Danielle and Olivier have broken up. That wedding postponement just became permanent. From start to finish, Danielle’s latest relationship lasted just six weeks. While some of her fans were happy to see her move on … and had hoped that a new man might pay off her debts or even buy her a new home. Instead, it appears that he never even bought her a wedding ring when the two went shopping over the weekend. To no one’s surprise, Marty Caffrey has something to say about all of this. In a statement to Us Weekly , Marty has responded to his ex wife’s newest breakup. “I wish, and will always wish, [for] Danielle to achieve true love and happiness,” Marty says. He continues: “I fell in love with her, remember?” “And although I divorced her last August,” Marty notes. “This still troubles me.” Marty also says that he saw this outcome a mile away. Danielle, who has now been engaged twenty-one times and married four times, apparently did not. Marty admits: “I had early suspicions and doubts about the sincerity about this St. Barts nonsense.” He is referring to the photo of the two of them kissing. “Olivier and Danielle would serve themselves well by putting their feet on the ground and staying there forever,” he suggests. However, he predicts: “I doubt either can.” Marty then reveals that Olivier was dating Gina Curko when he and Danielle met. Though Olivier previously insisted that Danielle played no role in that breakup, Marty clearly feels differently. “This is an absolute disgrace, what they both did,” Marty assesses. “Having no regard for Gina and her kids and Danielle’s kids is something I will never understand,” he says. Danielle’s adult daughters were “pushing back” over the weekend over concerns that Danielle was moving too quickly. There’s just one other twist about Olivier. Remember when Danielle revealed that he’s a duke — the duke of Provence? It turns out that he might not be a real duke after all. See, the duchy of Provence was absorbed by the French monarchy centuries ago. So his ancestor may have been nobility centuries ago — but, honestly, whose wasn’t ? The way that bloodlines work, most of us are descended from nobles or even royalty, but most of us don’t claim titles that don’t exist anymore. Maybe Danielle dodged a bullet.

Danielle Staub and Olivier Maier: Engaged After Like a Week! Getting Married Monday!

Just a week after Danielle Staub finalized her divorce from Marty Caffrey, she revealed that she is dating Olivier Maier . Now, the two of them are engaged … and they don’t plan to waste any time. Danielle and Olivier’s wedding date is just days away. The world only learned about this relationship on Monday, February 25, after the Bravo celebrity uploaded a kissing photo to Instagram. People reports that, as of Thursday morning, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Staub and Olivier Maier have become engaged. This is exciting, but also sudden and unexpected. As of earlier this week, she was said to still be residing in the same house as her now ex-husband, Marty Caffrey. After they fly back to pick up Danielle’s ring, they plan to tie the knot at Justice of the Peace in New York City — on Monday. This Monday. This will be Olivier’s second marriage. This will be Danielle’s fourth marriage … and is her twenty-first engagement. “I’m madly in love,” Danielle gushes to People . “I’m feeling elated and excited for the next stage of my life,” she affirms. “I’m going to marry the man of my possible dreams.” “And hopefully,” she expresses. “I’ll spend the rest of my life in bliss.” Olivier is the managing director of a New York-based private equity firm called Speyside Equity. He is both German and French. He is also the Duke of Provence, which means that when they marry, Danielle will become a duchess. Olivier’s family owns 15 vineyards in the South of France. They also own two castles. We should note that, earlier this week, Olivier’s name was reported as being “Oliver,” and that some sites are still reporting his name this way. Danielle and Olivier met in October of last year, two months after her split with Marty. They met through a mutual friend — whom Olivier was actually dating at the time. The romance did not begin right away. In fact, that didn’t begin until February, after they had shared a kiss at the Baccarat hotel. “In that moment I said, ‘Wow,’ ” Staub says of their passionate smooch. “I still tried to push it off, but as the weeks went on, he did not let off the throttle, and he pursued me adamantly,” she characterizes. “And he got what he wanted,” she admits. “We fell madly in love.” Danielle explains to People that Olivier’s blunt personality was, at first, off-putting. “I quite frankly couldn’t stand him when I first met him,” she jokes. “He’s so strong-willed, and at first, I read that as rude, and arrogant and entitled,” she shares. Danielle continues: “It wasn’t until I got to know him that I saw the other side.” “I wasn’t open to it,” she confesses of their relationship. “I was ready to just go out with my girlfriends in Manhattan. I didn’t want this.” “People don’t like to take a risk, but I took a risk,” Olivier says. “Danielle’s one of the smartest people I’ve met,” he raves. “People have preconceived notions about her from reality TV, but she’s a smart woman.” “And I was instantly attracted to that,” he admits. “I care about Danielle,” he emphasizes for any of her fans who may fear that he’s just a rebound. “She’s phenomenal, comes from a good family, and is beautiful beyond belief,” he concludes. “I’m happy we’re together.” Well, this might as well happen. Congratulations to them both! View Slideshow: Danielle Staub: Accused of Financial, Verbal AND Emotional Abuse … by Her Own Husband!

Danielle Staub: My Marriage Was Ruined by Booze!

Though The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Danielle Staub was granted a restraining order against her ex , that relationship continues to haunt her. In this clip, she is speaking out about the difficult split. As she tells Wendy Williams, her husband's alcohol use played a major role in their breakup. Danielle, who has been engaged twenty entire times, is opening up about the hard lessons that this marriage has taught her. “It’s funny how I saw certain things happening,” Staub admits about her husband, Marty Caffrey. She says that she saw these red flags when they were just dating, but unfortunately ignored them. “But you just believe, especially with the perception around us, getting engaged would make it better,” she explains. She says that social messages gave her the impression that “getting married would make it better.” “It doesn’t get better, ladies,” she cautions Wendy Williams' audience. “If it’s falling apart,” Staub admits. “It’s broken.” She is absolutely right. If anything, the honeymoon phase of a relationship should have the least problems. Those struggles aren't likely to evaporate just because you put a ring on it. As she explains, Caffrey's drinking played a huge role in their split. “He does hit cocktail hour a little bit heavily,” she says. “And it does change things.” “I think all of us it changes,” Staub acknowledges. People don't change into a new person when they drink, but other sides of them come out when alcohol is involved. Not all of those sides are pleasant. “I just don’t think it changes him for the better,” Staub says. “Or his ability to maneuver through what’s going on.” Staub doesn't place all of the blame for their split at his feet, however. She is the first to admit that she is “not the easiest person to live with.” Caffrey accused Staub of emotional and verbal abuse during their marriage. “I’m to blame for it as well,” Staub explains. “But,” she says. “I feel like I’m always the person who wants to fix people and it’s not fixable.” If a person has a substance abuse problem, they're the only ones who can fix it. Wendy then asks her if she thinks that she and Caffrey might ever get back together. “I don’t have a crystal ball,” Staub says cautiously. “But,” Staub continues. “You can’t go into the public and be tweeting and Instagraming about your wife or your spouse.” “You just don’t do that,” she says simply. When your relationship troubles are spilling over onto social media, that is a huge warning sign that things may end soon. It is usually a sign that things should end soon. Staub's role on the Real Housewives franchise was apparently a huge source of appeal for Caffrey. Wendy asks: “So he really liked being a ‘House husband?'” “I think that that was what I’m most disappointed about,” Staub admits. Staub was saddened by “His want for this attention.” Well, half of all marriages end in divorce. We're just sorry that some life lessons are so painful to learn. Perhaps others can learn from Danielle Staub's experience.

Danielle Staub Accused of Snitching, Coke Whoring, Death Threatening by Former Lover/Drug Dealer

Throughout this season of The Real Housewives of New Jersey , Danielle Staub has been referred to as a “coke whore” by her cast mates. But spurned ex-convict Daniel Aguilar went one step further this week, telling Radar Online the troubled reality star is a “snitchin’ coke whore.” And, according to sworn testimony by Aguilar, he should know. Last Thursday, Aguilar was deposed under oath as part of Kevin Maher’s defamation lawsuit against Staub. A former drug dealer who was arrested in a kidnapping and drug distribution scheme with Staub three decades ago, Aguilar went to jail because Staub turned on him. He said he met Staub when she worked as a prostitute and used the names Beverly Merrill and Angela Minelli. The pair started dating and working together, with Staub approaching Aguilar at one point and asking for four kilograms of cocaine to sell to her neighbor. Aguilar provided the drugs. But the neighbor never paid for the cocaine, and Aguilar believes he was ripped off by Staub and this man. In order to cover her tracks, though, Staub allegedly began beating the neighbor over the head with a 9mm Beretta, threatening the man’s life. She told the man’s father that his son would die unless at least $25,000 was paid. Both Staub and Aguilar were arrested for the incident and charged with extortion and intent to distribute cocaine. Via a plea bargain, Staub avoided jail time and flipped on Aguilar, sending him to prison for years. Under oath, Aguilar admitted “I wanted to kill her because of what she did, but I realize that if she’s dead I’m not going to get paid,” referring to the $100,000 he’s still owed for the original cocaine shipment. Aguilar even says he contacted Staub last month to demand the money, but she insists she owes him nothing. It’s a complicated, layered story – and a lot of it rests on the word of a convicted drug dealer. Still, that doesn’t change the fact that Danielle Staub is rewarded for her incredibly shady, illegal behavior throughout the years with a six-figure salary and a starring reality show role.

Danielle Staub to Teresa Giudice: Foreclose This!

Danielle Staub has two messages for Teresa Giudice: Told you so! Avoid payday loans, no money down mortgages and be smart with your money. That’s the basic reaction this reality star has for her Real Housewives of New Jersey castmate, as Giudice faces serious bankruptcy and financial problems . Speaking to reporters about Teresa’a $11 million debt this week, Staub said: “I’m going to tell her what I told her before – your house is in foreclosure. I wasn’t lying and you did know… I think people need to spend within their means and if you don’t know what you have, you need to communicate with your husband.” This is easily the most sane Danielle has ever sounded. Staub and Giudice went at it on the amazing July 13 episode of this Bravo show, as seen above. Since then, Teresa has gone on The View and said her husband, Joe, never said a word about their impending foreclosure. But that’s a lame excuse, Danielle says, adding: “One thing that comes with marriage is that it’s fifty-fifty. It is your responsibility to know these things. You can’t just throw him under the bus… That’s not cool.” In the end, Staub has profound advice for all the Real Housewives: “Be very humble, be grateful for the opportunities that have been given to you and try to teach your children that hard work is definitely something that becomes lucrative to you in the end.” In the rear end , she means, as Danielle knows from personal, videotaped experience .

Attorney for Danielle Staub to Seek Assault Charges Against RHONJ Cast Members

You’ve gotta love reality TV. On Monday night, Bravo aired an epic fight between Danielle Staub and Teresa Giudice. It eventually resulted in Jacqueline Laurita’s 19-year-old daughter (Ashley Holmes) ripping out the former’s weave. This confrontation actually took place in November, however, as it was documented at the time and Holmes was forced by the court to pay a $189 fine. Case closed, right? Wrong says Staub’s lawyer, Paul Giblin. Speaking to Hollywood Life, he said of the incident :
