The Real Housewives of New Jersey drama rages on!
As filming wraps up on the 4th season of the hit show, the latest is a report that Teresa Giudice is actually considering walking away from the show that made her infamous!
Teresa tells In Touch Weekly that she “didn’t sign up” for all the drama. Err you kinda did Tre! “I signed up to be with my friends, hanging out, having fun. I didn’t sign on to have my family and friends trashing me,” says Teresa who managed to slam her costar Caroline Manzo in her latest cookbook.
When asked to explain why she felt the need to refer to Caroline, 50, as being only 1/16th Italian in her Fabulicious cookbook, Teresa snipes: “It was such a nothing thing to get upset over.” She adds, “It’s sad that Caroline is trying to attack my livelihood.”
As for Teresa possibly leaving the show after season 4, a source tells that mag that Bravo is loving every minute of the drama…of course and does NOT want to lose their biggest troublemaker star! “They don’t want to lose Teresa as they feel she is their biggest asset. She is ratings gold,” reveals an insider.
Ratings gold indeed as part 1 of the RHONJ reunion got the highest ratings of the season. Over 3.4 millions viewers tuned in to see the highly promoted Caroline/Teresa showdown on Sunday night!
In other Tre news, her husband Joe Giudice’s mystery date is now speaking out. If you recall, Reality Tea confirmed last week that divorced female body builder Davana Medina was indeed the lady who was snapped dining with Joe, sans Teresa, a few weeks ago.
CLICK HERE FOR MORE PHOTOS OF DAVANA MEDINA!
Davana, 37, is now breaking her silence as she tells Star Magazine there is no funny business going on between her and Joe. “We were old friends having fun,” Davana tells Star. “I’ve known Joe and Teresa since I was little.”
And while Teresa has claimed she was aware Joe was out with Davana whom she called a “family friend,” Davana tells a different story when she admits Teresa wasn’t happy about the dinner date.
“I think she’s upset because it makes her look like a jerk,” explains Davana. “But I don’t need to apologize for anything.” Davana’s comments falls in line with what a source told us about the situation, which was that Teresa was a “mess” over the Joe cheating rumors. Our source also insisted that while Davana and Joe go way back, she is NOT a family friend.
Other sources also tell Star that Teresa might have good reason to be upset. “Davana and Joe had a past together, and who knows what’s going on now?” says a source. “Teresa had better watch her back.”
Moving on to Dina Manzo, who continues to remain in the headlines after her sister Caroline finally admitted their relationship is indeed strained. After getting backlash from fans who felt she took Teresa’s side, Dina is once again defending herself.
“Teresa has nothing to do with my relationship with my sister,” Dina revealed to UsWeekly. “I had no idea of their discord until very recently.” She added: “I am at a very good place in my life with my foundation, Project Ladybug, helping so many children with cancer and my new show Dina’s Party on HGTV.”
When it comes to the state of her relationship with Caroline, Dina stated, “I’m sure in time [it] will mend itself. To quote a favorite saying of mine, ‘This too shall pass.’”
Allrighty. So we have to ask -
TELL US – WILL YOU WATCH THE SHOW WITHOUT TERESA? THOUGHTS ON TERESA AND DINA’S INTERVIEWS? WHOSE SIDE ARE YOU ON? CAROLINE’S OR TERESA’S? WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF DAVANA’S COMMENTS?










995Hanky…The Manzo/Laurita family was featured in local Dining OUt magazine…great pictures of Jac,Chris, Caroline, Albie, Christopher and Lauren. Anyway, Chris Laurita said he knew it would be a hard sell. Sounds like just they get interest people seems to like it.
OMG – Now twitter is claiming that Lauren’s weight issue was introduced on the show in an attempt for Bravo to pay for lap band surgery…Seriously, how far will these rumors go. Why not push Vito to propose to Lauren and get the wedding freebies too.
@988 lolag
Yes….. That is because The Brownstone is ALBERT’S business, and Caroline does not work there LOL!!!
I think people forget that.
The story Caroline tells is completely believeable to me. The Brownstone is a big deal here in the neighborhood. When Dina did last year’s Project Ladybug’s Ladies Night Out, that whole section of the city was impacted (because she turned the area OUTSIDE into the event).
There is no way that Caroline has any idea what happens day-to-day at The Brownstone. If Albert had some sort of a business relationship with the Wakile’s, it’s completely possible that Caroline knew nothing of it.
I don’t know if I said this before……. I WILL ABSOLUTELY still watch this show if they get rid of Teresa!!!!!!
p.s. I may stop watching if Teresa STAYS!!!!!!
Jan…Agreed! Teresa is scum!
@993 bravonut….Great point about the costumes. I remember them shopping at the one children’s boutique where it was sheer chaos, but I also remember Teresa talking about all the dresses she has a designer make for her daughters. You’re right. Wal-Mart, Target, and I guess even Party City wouldn’t make do. If a person has the money then sure, but when they are $11 million bk,……………..
@1104 Jan….Me, too….lol.
@1003 Jan- rich owns a gast station. the furthest albert’s business relationship goes with the wakiles is that the wakiles probably attended parties at the brownstone, and ordered catering for holidays JUST LIKE 80% OF THE PEOPLE IN THEIR AREA. kathy even said they always got their christmas party food from the brownstone. it was a lame excuse Bravo probably made caroline use to film with the other ladies, because im sure teresa asked jax and caroline not to film with them, just like we know the NY housewives used to do.
people please… look at what caroline manzo did to her friend teresa… she jumped ship.. i am appalled the people dont see caroline’s fault in all this… well at least dina can read thru caroline’s bs…
first of all caroline manzo is a fake a&& friend. she showed her true colors.. a friend stick with their friend and by their side NO MATTER WHAT– miss matriarch Caroline Manzo. she is a back stabber.. what season 3 all over and see how caroline talk badly about teresa. instead of talking to her either off camera or one.. one-on-one.. she talked behind teresa’s back and made fun of her.. that’s no true friend. i am truly sorry bout the friendship with jac and teresa tho.. i truly hope they can make amends.. that greg guy was also planted on the show to bring out the worse in teresa… Melissa word of advice: imitation is the sincerest form of flattery… grow up and realize that it’s ok to admire your sister in law and stop hating on her so much….
Teresa with a makeup line,.. I’ve be dying to look like a monkey with dark rings around my eyes. Dye my hair Black.. and call me an undertaker..
No I do not stick with a friend I see is hurting people I love or whom are true friends of mine ..Your WRong!
A true friend helps you through your troubles, and gives you advice.. You take it or don’t. But you don’t stand by at let them drag you down wiih them.Thats not a friend .Thats being stupid!
How about the Brownstone mortgage to the hilt and payday is due. Or how is Jac living since her husbands business went under. Are they mad cause Teresa is able to settle her debts when the lawyer she can write a check to settle her but her husbands debt is in the mid millions and he is able to settle his by selling them. Is Caroline and sister Dina not speaking cause Dina and her husband are part owners with Carolines husband.
As for Jac –forget it she is a real nut case in my opinion who exploited her young daughter needlessly. She and her husband both.
Hey Doc, how could Croline jumpship?If Teresa was truley interested in making nice with her family,There would be no ship to jump!! What part of this picture did you not get!
Teres is a selfish, jealous poor exuse for a Woman and /or an Italian.The world reolves around Teresa and only Teresa. She is an embaressment to both her Family and herself.She is a theif and a criminal. Anyone who purhases any of her shit she sells needs thier head examined. I work to hard to give 1 dime to this thief.Notie Tre baks not one single charity other than the Giudice are thieves Charity.! Aint I a theif joe, Aint I, Joe, Aint WE!
Jan, I cansee you purchased the In Touch Magazine! First off, In Touch has a contract with Teresa. Teresa agrees to do so many cover stories and the magazine gives Teresa a commission on the sales1 aRE YOU SO GULLABLE THAT YOU WOULD BELIEVE THAT THE MANZO’S OR THE lAURITA’S would ever disclose financial problems with Teresa Giudice!Are you that gullable that you cannot read between the lines and comprehend that the article had no credibility other than a source aka(Tre) go to celebrity networth, and type in all of the woman amd their husbands names. You will get a very good idea of who has what when it comes to money.Not saying this is 100% accurate however, Teresa’s shoots back -11,000000.
million The Brownstone (Albert Manzo) well let’s just say the figure’s reveal what anyone with half a brain woiuld assume, no lack of money there! us weekly is under contract with Melissa Gorga, as a result the stories will be in faor of Melissa. Everytime you purchase anything that is affiliated with the hoisewife on the cover, your putting money, your hard earned money in their pocket. you really should not omment on Teresa Giudice and anything that omes from her mouth as we know for a fact, the Criminal in both her and her husband.Makes the reader think the same of you!!
Jan, when it comes to a nut case your gal Tre takes the crown! She also get’s the crown for her other wonderful charater traits like, IRS fraud,Bankruptcy fraud! A real winner!! Her new plan for Bankruptcy #2 that will take place in Fed 2012 continues to show her lack of morals and values.Once your exposed as a thief all credibility is gone!
I HATE THERESA!!!! GROSS!
I will not watch if Teresa leaves and probably won’t watch if Caroline and her brown nosers stay. What Bravo won’t do for ratings. I don’t think I can stand another season of family Drama. Who would have thought that Bravo would devote an entire season to thios very private matter. I have the solution. Give Teresa her own show and do whatever you want with NJ Housewives.
Teresa is wrong, Caroline is not even one 1/50th Italian. She does not speak Italian, was not born in Italy her parents were not even born in Italy. Teresa translates Italian saying’s in English and Look at Caroline’s face…huh??? Anyways, What is wrong with being just American Caroline. YOU WERE GIVING TERESA ADVICE FAMILY BUT YOUR OWN FAMILY IS A MESS!
I really thought Caroline was real until this season, Caroline is a phony. Teresa may not be perfect and she never said she was perfect. Caroline needs to listen to her own advice. TEAM TERESA!!!!! Also what Caroline said about Gia was horrible. What else could have Teresa have done with Gia? Look what Caroline said about her daughter’s LOOKS ON NATIONAL T.V. WOW!! no wonder Lauren has issues about her looks.
Fix your situation with Dina and Lauren then talk to us about family!!!
Teresa is a back stabber, will do anything to get to the top even if it means stepping on long time friends to get there. Wow, will someone tell her how desperate she looked trying to look like a swim suit model more like a has been. Teresa deserves her loser hubby their truly a match made in Loserville. Their poor children to have rectums for parents. Teresa get on your knees and pray for forgiveness you know who to, but then your are such an idiot, morally bankrupt if there was Ass Hole Prison you would be locked up for life. Stay clear from this psycho. Bravo get rid of this demon.!!

I am on Team Caroline for sure! I used to like Teresa until this season. She is obsessed with her little brother and feels very threatened that he chose to get married. That’s sick! I love the way Andy treated her last night. He called her out on the “F*g” stuff and how when she gets an idea in her head, you cannot convince her differently even with when you put the facts right in front of her homely face! Yes, she thinks she is so hot, but the girl is not! She’s got the lowest hairline I’ve ever seen and she looks like a puppy. Here’s another thing…I’m certain Melissa has had implants for many years, but Teresa just got hers less than 2 years ago. Doesn’t that make her a copy cat? LOL. It sure as heck does! Teresa could leave the show and I would be happy as can be. Danielle thought she was the golden child with all the drama she brought, but she was let go. The same will happen to Teresa if she doesn’t watch it! Danielle was far more entertaining than Teresa.. Caroline is someone I would be happy to call my friend. I can’t say that about the gorilla girl!
Yep, really wish Andy woulda asked Tre about the copycat implants, would have made the show a little more watchable – am glad it’s over, no plans for tuning the next season, same old same old borrring..
BRING ON PHAEDRA, yea!
I don’t know why everyone is ticked with Teresa. One bravo put her feuding family in the spot light . Two Caroline and Jacquiline were fighting her about her family issues like the issues were their problem. Then they both have the nerve to get upset if anything about their family get out. The should have mine their own business especially Jacquline. Three Melissa is the biggest fake I have ever seen. She is even fake about who she is. That cousin Kathy is just closer to Joe for the same reason Melissa married him. His money. Neither one of them fought their own battle on the reunion they let Caroline do it because they don’t want you to see thier true side. Even thought at the begining of the show Melissa was displaying her true colors weekly. I think some one reminded her she was on camera.
If Teresa were actually exposed to wealthy Italians with education and taste, she might be shocked to see that gaudy, over the top clothes, homes and parties are not necessarily “italian” and an embarrassment to Italians disgusted by this stereotype.
I have an idea! Put Tereas, Danielle, Gretchen ,Ms. Salahie, and Taylor together on a new show. Add a dash of Pam /Dana & Kim, Stir vigorously. Add a dash of Atlanta’s Kim and Nene.What could Andy name it? Hire a bouncer for reunions.
caroline manzo, get a life who are you mother mary. you are not the god mother of jersy. take the bottle out of your sons life and get a make over for your daughter. get botox so your husband can stop sleeping at the browntomb. your mob days are over live your life ,stop interfering in others
and you all have lives? too funny to come on a posting board to bash others you don’t even know! you see exactly what the producers of this show want you to see people! Clippings on the Floor!
I would love to watch the show with out that pin head, no forehead, no brain Teresa. Put on those Kim D and Kim K on and let the fights begin.
Teresa is a sociopath in need of serious psychiatric help. Her behaviour confirms this. She is out of control. Finally Caroline and the others, after supporting and backing her, have seen the truth (she is a nutcase) and have had enough. At least they did support her and her terrible behaviour for a very long time. But seeing the truth they wisely chose to distance themselves from her. She is self destructing and dangerous to anyone near her.
Ok, I have to say I LOVE Tre and her family. But I will not watch the SHOW with out TRE, I HAD ONLY WATCH THE SHOW BECAUSE OFF HER .
I will be so happy if Teresa is kicked off. She is a dreadful human being.
I hope Teresa dosen’t come back, I am so sick of her whinny ass bullying. She didn’t know how good she had it with friends like Jac & Caroline. They defended and stood by her and Joe through so much when no one else would. Get rid of Teresa and keep all the other ladies who have some dignity and class.
Caroline and Jacqueline really did try to talk some sense into Theresa and help her move forward with her brother and Melissa, but since Theresa can never be wrong..she just couldn’t do it! She is responsible for losing their friendship! They finally saw thru her and realized that Theresa is NOT a true friend…she hates everyone and especially anyone who disagrees with her or doesn’t let her have her way…you have to feed her ego to be her friend…not worth it! Dina is a big douche!
