Noella and James Have Only Been Married for a Year.
Us Weekly reports that the couple tied the knot in June of 2020. In August, both of them initiated divorce proceedings independently. In legal papers, Noella claimed that the couple had “irreconcilable disputes.”
Us Weekly reports that Noella has asked for sole custody of their son, James Jr., 2, and wants James to have just visitation rights. She sought the court to prevent her from having to pay James anything, including spousal support, and he agreed to do so.
On the Show, Noella Revealed That Financial Problems Caused Tension in Her Marriage.
Noella tells her co-star Shannon Beador that she and James had money problems because of their Puerto Rican home.
According to People, she has said, “I cannot wait to just be done with it.” She adds, “Unfortunately, there were certain financial problems that were not disclosed to me from my husband and it’s related to this house.” “It’s a major source of tension in my life and in our marriage at the moment. The absence of trust makes everything more challenging.”
She also reveals that James owes the government millions of dollars in back taxes. It was a big surprise to her to learn that her husband owed taxes, as she explains on RHOC. “At first, there was only one lien for $4,000,000. Ten days later, I learned that it was actually two liens and that the total was closer to $6 million.”
Noella later confides in her coworker Gina Kirschenheiter that she had suggested James sell the Puerto Rico house in an effort to pay off his mounting debts. She explains, “He was genuinely fighting me on that, and now, a complete breakdown in communication.” “The worst part is that he is my closest buddy.”
“I’m trying to convince him that we’re not in competition with one other. What we need is for us to collaborate on a solution. We’re not in a good place right now ” she adds”
After James Filed for Divorce, He Went Off the Grid.
When James’s divorce papers finally arrived, Noella was caught off guard. While talking on the phone with Shannon, she reveals that she has no idea where her husband is. “His closet is just here. Everything he has is right here. The vehicles he owns are in this garage. This is where he will live all his days. He froze all of the credit cards, “her words
It’s a strange time in my life,” Noella says at the end of one episode.
Now, Noella Says James is Trying to ‘torture’ Her by Dragging Out the Divorce.
The Real Housewives of Orange County actress is opening up about her arduous separation from her husband Mario. “There’s a lot in divorce that’s about power and micromanaging and kind of wanting to punish the ex,” she told Page Six. “You can see traces of that operating here,” they said.
Still, she maintains faith that James will eventually arrive at “a happy place where he doesn’t feel like he needs to look at the past and think about controlling me.”
Noella described the current state of the divorce as “extremely frustrating.” James, she said, is now demanding even more time with their son. She went on to say that her son, who is two years old, has autism and that her Puerto Rican husband wants joint legal and physical custody of him despite the fact that he hasn’t seen him in six months. We make a ten-step regress for every one-step advance.
It’s nothing to be ashamed of for me to discuss my divorce “Noella explained. “Since I haven’t done anything wrong, I have no guilt or embarrassment about discussing our problems, and neither should other women in our situation.
Season 16 of The Real Housewives of Orange County continues on Bravo, so stay tuned for more information.
