Page Six reports that Danielle Staub and her estranged husband Marty Caffrey are moving forward with their divorce in a more amicable manner and have mutually dismissed the restraining order requests they had previously filed against each other. The Real Housewives of New Jersey star and her husband both agreed to dismiss their complaints on Monday, August 20, according to Us Weekly. The agreement comes a little over a week after the two had filed the restraining order requests.
According to the temporary restraining order obtained by Us Weekly, Staub “found her husband standing in her garage” when she got home on Sunday, August 12, and “he appeared to be under the influence of alcohol, agitated and confrontational.”
Staub later heard a “disturbing noise,” per the docs, and “realized that several of her family portraits of her children and other sentimental framed photographs had been taken down causing her to be upset.” An insider told Us that Caffrey also “took a bunch of Danielle’s belongings and hid them in his car.” Police found the items in the businessman’s car after he called the officers to the home as Staub searched the property for the family photos.
Meanwhile, Caffrey filed for his own temporary restraining order, alleging that Staub “picked up [an] iron and raised it as if she was going to throw it.” He also claimed his wife “threatened to stab [him] in the neck at least a dozen times” over the past year, according to the documents.
Staub’s rep, Steve Honig, denied Caffrey’s accusations in a statement to Us Weekly: “The claims being made are beyond preposterous and clearly a knee-jerk reaction to Danielle’s filing. I cannot imagine there is a single person gullible enough to believe any of this nonsense. If even 10 percent of these claims were true, any normal person would have already filed for divorce or, better yet, not married the person in the first place. This is laughable.”
Days after the filings, multiple sources confirmed to the publication that Caffrey had hired a divorce lawyer to take the next step in finalizing their marriage. Staub and Caffrey tied the knot on the Bahamian Island of Bimini in May and it has been reported that Bravo cameras captures the nuptials for the show's upcoming ninth season.
