Teresa Giudice and Margaret Josephs from The Real Housewives of New Jersey have an ongoing feud that has been on and off for several years. Margaret joined the Bravo series in 2017 for season 8 when she was brought on by former RHONJ castmate and friend Siggy Flicker.
After Siggy left the show, Jackie Goldschneider and Jennifer Aydin joined the series. Margaret developed a close friendship with Jackie, while Jennifer became close to Teresa. Since then, there has always been this divide in the cast, with Melissa Gorga constantly in the middle.
However, because Melissa has developed a closer bond with Jackie and Margaret than Jennifer, Melissa tends to understand their side more than Teresa's. With this large divide, Teresa and Margaret have gone head to head several times, which has caused their ongoing feud on RHONJ.
When Teresa Told Danielle To Pull Margaret's Hair
Back in season 10, Margaret found out that Teresa was the one who told a former RHONJ friend Danielle Staub to pull her hair while out shopping as a group. Margaret confronted Teresa about this in the final episode of the season, and she immediately threw her drink at the cameras and stormed off inside. When it was time for the reunion, Margaret was able to forgive Teresa fairly quickly despite feeling betrayed.
Margaret Bring's Up Teresa's Fiancé's Past
During RHONJ season 12, Margaret is the one who brings up some rumors regarding Teresa's now-fancé Luis Ruelas. The rumor in question was that Luis is "sex-obsessed" and would often get mad at ex-girlfriends if they didn't satisfy him to his standards. This clearly hit a nerve with Teresa and reignited their feud from season 10. It is unclear if Margaret also brought up the warrior camp video of Luis that has since gone viral.
Teresa Doesn't Invite Margaret To Her Wedding
During an exclusive interview with Page Six, Margaret revealed that she will likely not be invited to Teresa's upcoming wedding to fiancé Luis. Right now, the former friends are not getting along, and Margaret wouldn't be surprised if her "invitation go lost in the mail." Nonetheless, Margaret is hopeful she and Teresa will get to a better place but knows her bringing up concerns about Luis' character struck a nerve with her. However, the information that Margaret brought to Teresa's attention is something she would do for anyone close to her. Margaret was only trying to be a good friend.
Right now, Teresa and Margaret are not in a good place and will likely remain in the feud for the foreseeable future. When it comes to the people she loves, Teresa will stand by them no matter what. Now that The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 12 is just one day from the premiere, viewers are excited to see how their feud goes down.
