The Real Housewives of New Jersey girls are tit for tat. In case you missed it, Rachel Fuda posted a photo of the RHONJ cast several weeks before the premiere and cropped one of the stars, Teresa Giudice, out of it.
When Dolores Catania was pressed about it on Watch What Happens Live, she said Rachel’s actions made sense.
Rachel and Teresa are at war on RHONJ Season 14
So, back in April, Rachel posted a photo on Instagram promoting the show. The second slide of her posts featured the RHONJ cast photo with Tre noticeably cropped out. According to Dolo, Rachel was returning the jab that happened to her first.
“I wish that she hadn’t, but they had done that to her,” she said. “That was done first. It wasn’t petty; it was retaliation.”
The reality star continued, telling Andy Cohen that Teresa cropped Rachel out of a set of photos during the Season 13 era. “I’m not big on doing the same thing back,” Dolores said about Rachel’s post, “because it makes you wrong, too.”
Does Rachel want the heat with Teresa?
The cropping of photos was enough to warn fans that things between Teresa and Rachel don’t get better for Season 14. And the season premiere proved that.
After repeating a rumor that John Fuda was one of the biggest drug dealers in Bergen County, things turned ugly, with John pushing back and calling the 14-season Housewife a “has been.”
John released an iPhone Notes statement after Sunday night’s episode, claiming Teresa was attempting to cloud his future with problems from his past. “Despite these efforts, Mr. Fuda remains steadfast in his commitment to integrity, honesty, and personal growth,” his statement reads.
It looks like there will be no peace between these two this year.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey continues on Sundays at 8/7c.
