Jill Zarinhas a new man in her life — and he happens to be a man fromRamona Singer‘s old life!
The Zarin Fabrics matriarch, 54, is dating clothing executive Gary Brody, a man who previously dated Ramona — herReal Housewives of New York Citycostar.
” ‘You’ll never believe it,’ ” Cohen said, paraphrasing Jill. ” ‘This guy used to date Ramona.’ ”
Ramona, 61, was happy to confirm Jill’s assertion.
“That’s true, we went on four dates!” she told Cohen, explaining thatshe was in the process of divorcing ex-husband Mario Singer at the time. “I wasn’t even divorced yet, my foot was just in the pool of getting divorced. I wasn’t ready for a relationship.”
Of course, this isn’t the first time two New York City Housewives have dated the same man.
Ramona andSonja Morganhad both been romantically involved with Tom D’Agostino, Jr. before he started dating (and then married and divorced)Luann de Lesseps.
Before Tom, Harry Dubin was the apple of the Housewives’ eyes. He dated Morgan and de Lesspes, after his divorce from formerRHONYstar Avivia Drescher.

But the fact that Ramona and Jill shared a man is somewhat surprising, considering the two were at each other’s throats when Jill leftRHONYafter season 4.

Jill confirmed to PEOPLE that she and Brody were dating back in July, though she slammed tabloid reports that the two had been romantically involved when her beloved husband passed.
The two are “friends first and still are,” Jill went on to say. “It’s still evolving,” she admitted, adding they “have a lot in common and enjoy each other’s company.”

“He wants me to move forward, he does,” she said. “He wants me to get married again, he wants me to find love again, he wants me to be taken care of, he wants me to be happy, yes he does. Very much so.”
Asked whether she is ready to start dating again, Jill said, “I think I’ll know when I know.”
