Who Is Frank Catania's New Girlfriend, Brittany Mattessich?

Sure, Frank Catania and Brittany Mattessich are an item today, but they had a working relationship at first. As Brittany revealed in an episode of the "Side Piece with Melissa Pfeister" podcast, Frank was her personal trainer once upon a time.

"He was my bodybuilding coach when I did bikini," she explained. The two worked together for the duration of her time doing bikini contests, but that was the extent of their relationship at the time, although Brittany did note that she was attracted to him. As for Frank, he revealed he has always been attracted to her but never attempted to cross the line. "I was afraid to make the first step, you know. Because I'm very shy," he admitted. Eventually, after Brittany quit doing competitions, they began spending time together in a personal capacity, and the rest is history. 

Training together wouldn't mark the end of their working relationship, though. With Brittany now featuring in "Real Housewives of New Jersey" Season 13, the couple has gone from coach and contestant to co-stars. That said, don't expect Brittany to get involved in any drama. Speaking to Page Six, Frank made it clear he's kept a close eye on that. "I'll interject before it gets anywhere," he said. While that's a sweet gesture, there's a good chance that wouldn't be necessary, anyway.
