Teresa Didn’t Stick to ‘RHONJ’ Reunion Agenda: They Were ‘Vultures’

You’re on the hot seat! Teresa GiudiceWhen it comes to The Real Housewives of New JerseyShe was not a fan of reunions so she made sure to have a plan before she entered the season 12 taping. However, things didn’t go as she had expected upon seeing castmate Margaret Josephs.

“We both had an agenda of the way we were going in because, unfortunately, you have to with these vultures. They were like vultures, but they were he. [fiancé  Luis “Louie” Ruelas] stuck to his plan, but I didn’t stick to mine,” Teresa, 49, exclusively revealed on the Friday, April 29, episode of Us Weekly’s “Getting Real with the Housewives” podcast. “I couldn’t help it. Just sitting across Margaret, I felt so hurt. This is the person that caused me pain all season long and I was sitting right across from her and I just, I couldn’t help myself.”

Teresa explained that the host Andy Cohen became “frustrated” since she wouldn’t let the MacBeth Collection designer, 55, get in the last word.

“When someone claims to be your friend and then puts out all these things about you and she sees that you’re happy — at this point in my life, I’m not trying to fake anything, and I don’t have to prove anything to anybody. I’m in my own love bubble,” the Stand Strong Author told Us. “I’m in my own house with my four daughters, with Luis’ son, like that’s all that matters, everything else doesn’t matter.”

Throughout the course of season 12 of the Bravo series, Teresa and Margaret were at odds after Luis’ past was questioned. It heated up on the cast trip Nashville, when Teresa threw a few drinks at the cast. Caviar Dreams, Tuna Fish Budget author.

Despite their rocky season, Teresa isn’t saying that their friendship is completely over.

“Never say never, but you know, I was really, really hurt because there was a lot of things going on behind-the-scenes and on the TV show, which you saw that, but it was very hurtful,” the New Jersey native explained. “It was really hurtful to me and Luis. I think time heals all wounds. Every day, just like any other day, it gets better. So, that’s where I’m at right now. I didn’t like my behavior in Nashville, that’s not me, so I’m working on myself with that.”
