While the divorce rumor of Lauren Manzo and Vito Scalia has been circulating for many months, Lauren finally spoke about the matter on Tuesday, October 24, 2023, and gave some insight into her divorce from Vito. Lauren Manzo, who had been married to Vito since July 2015, posted the following message on her Instagram account:
“By now you guys have seen the news that has broken, [and I] just want to let you guys know we’re all good. This has been done for a very long time. The last part of the process was filing. We were on the same page, this is something that we did together.”
Furthermore, she explained how both of them are focusing on their family and respect one another. Lauren Manzo, who shares a daughter with Vito, also confessed:
“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.”
