Jennifer Aydin has revealed why she shared Melissa Gorga's cheating allegations on The Real Housewives Of New Jersey. For a long time, Melissa and her husband, Joe Giudice, has been feuding with her sister-in-law, Teresa Giudice. The feud between the Gorgas and Teresa hit new heights in August last year when reports revealed that a fight broke out between them during the filming of RHONJ season 13. According to reports, the fight started after Melissa accused Teresa of helping to spread rumors that she cheated on Joe. Afterward, Joe and Melissa didn't attend Teresa's wedding to Luis "Louie" Ruelas. Since then, the Gorgas and Teresa's feud has only intensified.

Unsurprisingly, the feud between Teresa and Melissa has affected those close to them. For example, Jennifer, a close friend of Teresa, and Margaret Josephs, who is Melissa's ally, have been dragged into the feud and are seemingly fueling it. In RHONJ season 13, Jennifer added fire to Melissa and Teresa's feud by repeating rumors of Melissa's alleged infidelity. Although Melissa laughed off the allegations against her and termed them "typical," Jennifer has opened up on why she repeated them on the show.

During an appearance on the Virtual Reali-Tea podcast, Jennifer said, "The point of revealing this rumor is not to hurt Melissa." Jennifer explained that she brought the matter up on the show because she wanted to expose Margaret. She added that Margaret's ex-best friend, Laura Lee Jensen, was the alleged source of the cheating rumors about Melissa.

Jennifer said she wanted to show everyone what Margaret's true colors are. She added, "There is a source here. So I say bring Laura on. Bring Laura on, have them duke it out. Like, don't shoot the messenger here." Despite helping to spread the rumors about Melissa's infidelity, Jennifer said she didn't believe it. She explained, "Me saying this about Melissa, I'm not saying that it's true. I don't know it to be true, I don't believe it to be true. What I'm trying to say is we need to tread lightly when it comes to Margaret because this is how she gossips within her circle of friends."

If there is anything to know about RHONJ, it is that it is filled with so much drama. Hence, Jennifer's latest explanation about her reason for mentioning Melissa's cheating rumors on the show will add to the already-tense situation between the Gorgas and Teresa. One can only wonder if Jennifer's explanation makes Melissa question her friendship with Margaret and ask the latter about her connection to the rumors. Also, Teresa would feel vindicated by Jennifer's statement, as it would mean Melissa and Joe wrongly attacked her when they should have gone after Margaret.

One must also wonder what Margaret thinks of Jennifer's latest statement. She has previously denied discussing such cheating rumors with Laura and hinted that Jennifer would be all out against the Gorgas in The Real Housewives Of New Jersey season 13. At the moment, it is hard to know who is saying the truth about the issue. However, whatever the case, it is not helping to resolve the feud between Teresa and the Gorgas, but only heating it up. Hopefully, the Gorgas and Teresa can settle their differences, so their close friends can also be at peace with each other.
