NJ Housewife Teresa Giudice Was Punched In The Face After Starting Bar Brawl

As suspected by most, Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice was indeed the reason behind the Dominican Republic bar brawl last month.

RadarOnline is reporting that while Teresa’s husband Joe Giudice and Caroline Manzo’s sons were detained for the fight, it all started with a simple innocent act courtesy of Teresa at the Hard Rock in Punta Cana on February 23. A playful antic that didn’t sit well with one bar patron.

“She opened the champagne and just started spraying it everywhere and it went all over this woman near her,” said a source. “It was late, they were on vacation, and she was just having fun.”

However, the husband of the woman who got drenched did not take kindly to Teresa’s actions, as he physically attacked Teresa.

“It was crazy, he got really angry and punched Teresa in the face!” said the source. Whoa! At this point, Teresa’s husband Joe along with Albie and Chris Manzo stepped in to defend Teresa. “Joe, Albie and Chris were trying to protect Teresa and they just grabbed the guy and started fighting, and then people joined in.”

Bravo reportedly tried to break-up the fight to no avail. “Everyone was involved. It became a massive scene,” another source explained.

As previously reported, eight people wound up injured with two reports stating Joe stuck a male patron with a glass. Two of the injured patrons complained to the police resulting in all parties being detained and their passports seized. Eventually, everyone was released after local attorneys came in to smooth things over.

But the biggest shocker of all you ask? According to Radar, Bravo will not air fight on the upcoming season of the show.

No reason was given for this decision by Bravo. Perhaps the network feels this fight crossed a line in trashy reality TV, not that we think Bravo has any high standards to begin with. However, the most likely reason would be due to the legal ramifications, aka a lawsuit by the injured parties if proof footage of the injury causing attacks are aired on national television. And as we all know, the last thing the Giudices need is more legal drama.

TELL US – THOUGHTS ON THE LATEST AND ON BRAVO CHOOSING NOT TO AIR THE FIGHT?

    Has BRAVO been sued yet, or Andy Cohen? I think that is the next step … and THEN this behavior won’t be tolerated. If I were assaulted by the SHEMAN, I wouldn’t bother suing her – I’d sue her employer – BRAVO.

  2. These people were not in their bathing suits by the pool. It was late at night, no one stays in a wet swim suit all day and night. They were probably dressed up in their best clothes and spent a fortune on their vacation only to have it ruined by Trashy T spraying champagne all over them. Joe the gorilla probably threw the first punch and Trashy got hit. That pic of her black eye is priceless!!!’

  3. WTF! Do you expect anything less than the barbaric behavior of the NJ Mobsters. Andy Cohen started this Gong Show and he’ll soon be going the way of a Chris Brown or Charlie Sheen. He’s the real joke. Stopped watching Bravo. Too despressing! and Disgusting!

  4. Sorry someone spews booze all over me well then there will be blood!!! Seriously, it wouldn’t come to blows but I would address it. Teresa just has no class, the bar owner should have thrown her out!

  5. omg, national enquirer (et al.) keeps vaults of money for these kind of lawsuits . . . why, you ask? because the money they make from airing it FAR outweighs whatever the “recession/cheap vacationers” can afford to pursue . . . no?

    My opinion as stated @ 65 remains the same

  7. Although I don’t condone fighting, these people bring in on themselves. They think they are above everyone else and have to be loud and obnoxious anywhere they go. If I saw them in a restaurant where I was dining I would steer clear. Teresa is the instigator and she got what deserved.

  8. You can imagine if this would have happened at the brownstone. Caroline and her thugs would not even think twice.They have no feelings or class when it comes to doing this in other peoples establishments. Remember the table flipping and the social club scenes all involving teresa and her gang.If I saw them coming in my restaurant I would refuse them service. Which is legal in most states. I would not let bravo in for fear of retribution from customers.

  9. If they were filming and don’t air it, I am not watching that franchise again…LOL

  10. It wouldn’t even have to be that a man intentionallly hit the trash-bag. Since she doesn’t know enough to back off, she may have just been hit in the eye by a random fist during the melee. Nothing I have seen of her would make me think she has any restraint in her! In fact she has ALWAYS seemed the agressor!

    @Who knew

    Way more to this story then they are telling can’t wait to see the real thing.

  12. Bravo created this monster and has encouraged it to grow. Now they have a situation on their hands that they will spend tons of money defending in court. It truly has gotten to the point where they’ll have to film all her scenes in private locations. The American public wants nothing to do with this raunchtrocity of a woman and her family. Trash, pure and utter trash.

  13. CLASSY NOT, I swear sometimes I wished England had won the revolutionary war, then we would all be classy English folks!

  14. Yeah right the guy started the fight by attacking teresa first? I don’t believe that for a second!. She instigates fights 100% of the times. No class at all.

  15. She is white trash…with a decent weave.

  16. Time to get new cast members time for these people stop being phonies and get their act together the whole gang seems to be going into bankruptcy . So bravo get new people OK these ones are dull Oh yay Instead of having a xmass party costing thousands mabey they could of get gifts
