Real Housewives star's stepson is arrested for storming the Capitol on January 6 after his glamorous Trump-loving stepmom incriminated him with Facebook posts during the riot saying 'Stay safe Tyler #StopTheSteal'

The stepson of Real Housewives of New Jersey star Sigalit 'Siggy' Flicker has been arrested in connection with the January 6 riots after the glamorous reality TV star incriminated him and shared that he was at the Capitol. 

Tyler Campanella, 27, was arrested on Wednesday in New York City on five misdemeanor charges related to the attack. His presence in the riots was partially confirmed by Flicker on social media, according to the FBI. 

In a Facebook post from the day, Flicker - who was not at the insurrection - shared images captioned: 'I love patriots so much. Stay safe Tyler. We love you.' 

She ended her post with #StopTheSteal - which is used by Trump supporters who believe the outgoing president lost his second term because of election fraud. 

According to an FBI affidavit, Campanella was snared through witness testimony and open-source images shared online, with further footage from NBC reportedly showed him as part of a group that targeted Speaker Nancy Pelosi's office. 

DailyMail.com has reached out to Flicker’s representative for comment.

Campanella's phone was inside of the U.S. Capitol on the day of the attacks, according to the FBI, which cited phone records it had subpoenaed in their probe. 

He works as a sales manager with Bayside Chrysler, which the FBI said they confirmed by speaking to his colleagues. 

According to NBC News, footage from inside of the Capitol during the melee 'appears to show the man federal authorities identified as Campanella entering then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi's suite.'

The report added that he was part of a group caught 'walking into the room where Pelosi's laptop was stolen.' 

The FBI affidavit says that a review of surveillance footage appears to show Campanella entering the Capitol at around 2:17pm through the Senate Wing doors. 

The suspect was then spotted in 'various locations' around the building, including sitting on the base of a statue, walking around the Rotunda, and walking into the Senate Gallery for around a minute before leaving at around 2:52pm.  

An FBI affidavit cited open-source images shared on social media as confirming him as 'both outside and inside of the Capitol' during the deadly riots

Flicker, who appeared on the seventh and eighth seasons of the Bravo series, is an ardent supporter of Trump's, as she identifies herself as an 'Israeli/American Patriot' with the hashtag #MAGA on her Instagram page.

Her main photo on her account, which has more than 644,000 followers, is a picture of her standing next to Trump and her husband Michael Campanella, holding the Israeli flag.

Other notable names in Trump orbit she's seen posing with in pictures on her page include former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, comic Roseanne Barr and Trump's current lawyer Alina Habba. 

Last month, Flicker shared a glimpse from inside Habba's luxurious 40th birthday party in St. Barts, and she has previously referred to the former president's lawyer as her 'bestie.' 

She is also seen in multiple selfies posing outside of Trump's private jet.

No evidence exists that Flicker herself was at the Capitol the day of the attacks, which led to the deaths of seven people, according to a bipartisan Senate report cited in The New York Times in October of 2022.

Flicker was seen in an Instagram post posting with former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, who called for 'trial by combat' in a speech prior to the storming of the Capitol 

Flicker denied being in Washington D.C. during the timeframe of the attacks in a January 13, 2021 video she put on her Instagram account, urging followers not to 'believe all the bulls**t that's out there.

She said: 'I'm getting fake news alerts again! Supposedly they're saying that I was at the Capitol on January 6 for the rally. Not me. But the girl who, I don't know what picture's circulating around, she better be pretty.'

Flicker continued in the clip, 'I've been in Florida since December 3rd. Headed back to Jersey soon. Hey, but you know what I have to say? Just keep me relevant, that's all I have to say!'

According to NBC News, more than 1,387 people have faced charges in connection with the January 6 attacks with 984 convictions. 

The outlet noted that 'the overwhelming majority' of suspects in the attack admitted to criminal charges against them, or had been found guilty at trial.

A total of 15 people linked to the attack remain in custody ahead of their trials, more than three years after the attacks - and six months ahead of a presumed presidential election rematch between Biden and Trump.
