Fans saw OG Marysol Patton with her new boyfriend Steve McNamara when “The Real Housewives of Miami” came back after an eight-year break. During Season 1, Patton was dating Philippe Pautesta-Herder, who was younger than she was. In one episode, the Frenchman surprised Patton at dinner with a big engagement ring. The “RHOM” star looked shocked and said yes to his offer. A few days later, they got married in Aspen, Colorado, in front of a snowy background. Patton and Pautesta-Herder decided to get a divorce in 2012. Patton said that her busy work at her public relations firm was one reason why their marriage didn’t work. But they stayed on good terms, and she still thinks of her ex-husband as “family.”
Patton fell in love with McNamara for the second time in 2020. Patton kept her relationship with McNamara pretty low-key, even though she is a reality TV star who puts her life on display. They got married in a quiet ceremony in Tulum, Mexico, in April 2021. Patton is now retired, according to her Bravo profile, so she has a lot more time to dote on her new husband, who is pretty successful on his own.
Steve McNamara runs a family construction company
Steve McNamara was born to build things. As the current president of Anzac Contractors, he learned the ins and outs of the business from his father, Russ, who started the family business in 1971. McNamara got a degree in Business Administration and Management from the University of Florida in 1983. Then he joined Anzac and became the company’s President in 2007. The main thing McNamara’s company does is build heavy bridges, but Anzac also has a lot of experience building highways and sewer plants.
McNamara works at Anzac with his sister, Vivien Baltodano, who is a Controller there. He also has his own family.
He and his ex-wife, Tara McNamara, are the proud parents of two boys, Garrett and Hunter. Marysol Patton told Bravo’s Daily Dish about being married, “I just want to make sure that he stays healthy and that I stay healthy so that we can keep being together and enjoying each other’s company.”
Steve McNamara is a supportive husband
Marysol Patton wanted to honour her late mother Mama Elsa at her wedding to Steve McNamara. Mama Elsa was very important to Marysol, and she died in 2019. Patton and McNamara chose to have a traditional Mayan ceremony with rituals led by shamans while they were in Tulum, Mexico. “It was her mother’s spiritual and religious foundation. She felt like her mom’s influence led her to have this kind of ceremony, but Elsa is still in charge! “Page Six was told by a source.
McNamara keeps his life pretty private, but he doesn’t avoid talking about Patton’s life in public. Even though she doesn’t post many photos of the two of them on Instagram, she does share special times with her new husband. The “RHOM” star posted a sweet video of her and McNamara’s first kiss as a married couple after their wedding. She wrote, “Just Got Married @stevemcnamara Happy Birthday, My Love.” Patton’s best friend from “RHOM,” Alexia Echevarria, and her husband, Todd Nepola, went on a double date with them in New York City. “MIA in NYC… with the hottest husbands in tow #besties,” Patton wrote in the caption of a picture of the four of them. Patton has finally found the person she will spend the rest of her life with.
