Could there be less togetherness these days for a Real Housewife of New Jersey family? One male show regular was spotted in Atlantic City this weekend at a birthday party without his Housewife.

So who was this guy—and who was he with?

Teresa Giudice's husband, Joe, was seen dining at the Steakhouse inside Harrah's Saturday night, along with a long-haired brunette and other couples. The woman being feted wasn't his wife—but looked a lot like her.

The unknown gal pal could be a sister or a cousin of Joe's? Or perhaps an old friend?

"She looked similar to Teresa but younger," a source tells E! News, "They seemed friendly. They were sitting next to each other and talking closely."

The group was celebrating the birthday the very same night Teresa was dining at the Stanton Social in NYC and seemed unconcerned.

"Had dinner at Stanton Social tonight with great friends it was a good night...the food was excellent," she tweeted.

But could a deeper look at her Twitter show trouble brewing? The Bravo star, who blogs and tweets daily, hasn't mentioned her husband online since November of last year.

And sure, 2010 was a rough year for Joe, who filed bankruptcy in June and was jailed for charges stemming from his DUI in September.

Teresa's rep didn't respond to requests for comment. A Bravo spokesperson also didn't get back to us.

Somewhere, though, we're sure former castmate Danielle Staub has something to say about it.
