HOBOKEN, NJ — It was late in 2010 when brothers Albie and Chris Manzo from "Real Housewives of New Jersey" moved to Hoboken from Franklin Lakes to start a hip new life. Now, former law student Albie, 36, is on a new journey after getting engaged in the mile-square city.

Manzo's fiancee, Monmouth County native Chelsea DeMonaco, posted photos on Instagram Thursday morning showing a rather large engagement ring and their group celebrating at night at Augustino's Restaurant in Hoboken, and again outside on the 11th Street island.
