It looks as though The Real Housewives Of New York's Aviva Drescher might be getting more than just a step-mother with her father George's new fiancée, Dana Lavette Cody. The 25-year-old Florida-raised businesswoman insists that she's not a "gold digger" despite the age gap between her and 76-year-old fiancé. In fact, she says that their relationship is based on mutual understanding and "true love."

"George and I love each other and it's quite rare that you find a cultural and age difference and people can still find peace and happiness with themselves and each other," Cody tells Bravo's The Dish. "This is not a gold digger situation. I love him, he loves me."

"He respects my past and what I've been through. He nurtures me. He respects my past and what I've been through," Cody added.

Cody also says that while she was initially nervous about meeting Aviva, she was surprised about how much she embraced her into the family.

"It was nerve-wracking but the ladies are cool," Cody added. "It was my first time meeting Aviva and her co-workers and friends as well. I was extremely nervous! I was thinking, 'She's [Aviva] going to rip me a new one!' But she was so welcoming and she embraced me. I was more comfortable than I expected to be."

The Real Housewives Of New York airs every Sunday at 9 p.m. EST/PST on Bravo.
