There's already drama brewing between The Real Housewives of New Jersey star Teresa Giudice and season 12 newcomer, Traci Johnson. Traci, who is married to former New York Giants player Tiki Barber, is longtime friends with Melissa and Joe Gorga, and seems to fit in well with the group. But it seems that trouble is afoot when it comes to her and Teresa, which shouldn't be surprising given the OG's history when it comes to newbies joining the show.
The Turning the Tables: From Housewife to Inmate and Back Again the author is no stranger to drama. In every season of the RHONJ, Teresa has to stop herself from flipping a table and drinks aren't safe either. Teresa manages to always show her wild side, Jersey-style when it comes to standing up for herself and her friends (or allies, depending on the season). Teresa’s latest feud is with co-star Margaret Josephs, although the two have been butting heads for years now. However, season 12 seems intense, and Margaret called the Jersey girl out on her “hot temper.” Regardless, there is a new Jersey princess in town, and Teresa seems to have set her sights on her, too.
According to E! News, Teresa doesn’t just have a problem with Traci, but with Traci’s husband Tiki. “I just feel like I have drama with Teresa this season. It probably intensifies the further along we get. You know with anything with Teresa, you never know what you're gonna get,” Traci told E! News. “Tiki causes is a little bit of drama in Jersey.” Before Traci met Teresa and the other ladies, she was quite familiar with what went down on the RHONJ, noting that it's hard to live in Jersey and not have heard of the iconic table-flipping moment. Despite the drama, Teresa is still a fan favorite, and even Traci said she was pleasantly surprised by how welcoming Teresa was to her at the beginning as the OG of the show.
Regardless of a few feuds here and there between the RHONJ co-stars, Teresa made up with her sister-in-law Melissa, which was always an on and off kind of relationship. However, given that Traci came in as Melissa's bestie, that rift could very well open up all over again. The Jersey Queen also has other things to worry about, such as planning a wedding to her new boo, fiancé Luis Ruelas, which might add to her stress. Teresa and Luis have been dating since November 2020 and recently announced their wedding plans, and it seems like RHONJ season 12 will also include some tensions between him and her friends.
Viewers are likely dying to know how things will play out between Teresa and Margaret and now with Traci. Hopefully, Traci and Teresa's drama doesn't play out for too long, since once you're on Tre's bad side, it's hard to get on her good one.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs Tuesdays at 8 p.m. EST on Bravo.
