What Happened To Constantine Maroulis After American Idol?

So what happened to Constantine Maroulis after American Idol? A lot, actually. While the singer never really found success as a solo artist, he did pretty well for himself on Broadway. Maroulis starred in the jukebox musical Rock of Ages in 2009 and again in 2014, essentially becoming the face of the show. He even got a Tony nomination along the way. Ultimately, Maroulis rocked out on stage, just not the stage he probably expected!

Post-Idol, Maroulis reportedly went on to be romantically involved with more than one Real Housewives of New York member. During a RHONY episode in August 2020, Luann de Lesseps started talking about a romantic suitor, joking (via Screen Rant), "We share a lot of people, don't we?" The group then mentioned Idol. 

Maroulis has since confirmed it was him. He's hooked up with Tinsley Mortimer, Ramona Singer and Luann. "I guess I got a million calls about it," he said on the Behind the Velvet Rope With David Yontef podcast. "... I was like, 'Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah, they're definitely talking about me! Maroulis added, "Tinsley and I, like, legitimately went out many years ago during the height of Rock of Ages."

All that being said, it hasn't been all high notes for the Idol alum. In August 2015, Maroulis was arrested twice in one week. The first arrest was "for allegedly assaulting Angel Reed, his longtime girlfriend" and the mother of his daughter after an argument, per People. He was arrested again for violating a restraining order towards her, but, per Billboard, the charges were dropped.
