Why Jenn Fessler Gave Teresa Giudice a Chance at Friendship

Before this season of the Real Housewives of New Jersey aired, the streets were talking. The rumors were that Jenn Fessler and Jackie Goldschneider were no longer best friends with Margaret Josephs and Melissa Gorga. At the time, Jackie and Jenn’s newfound friendship with Teresa Giudice and Jennifer Aydin was believed to be the reason for their falling out.

Now that Season 14 has been airing, fans have seen that the rumors were true. However, it’s not because Jackie and Jenn had a “change of heart,” as their foes claim. They’ve simply moved on, and according to Jenn, she’s not going to be “nasty” to somebody who has been kind to her.

Jenn Fessler says she’s always been “friendly” with Teresa Giudice

During her interview with Access Hollywood, Jenn said the reason she and Teresa grew closer during the season was because she had to see her due to filming.

“We’re making a show together,” she said. “So, it’s a bunch of women, and we see each other three times a week. It’s not in my nature to be nasty to someone who’s being nice to me.”

She continued, saying she strives to listen to other people’s points of view. “When I’m interacting with someone, I want to be able to hear them and to hear their truth,” she said. “I feel like that’s what I did [with Tersaa].”

“I don’t love confrontation,” she continued. “If you’re going to come at me, I’m going to come back at you, right? But I try to be open. So, if I’m not being attacked, it’s rare that I’m going to go on the attack.”

The reality star said her relationship with Tre isn’t really “newfound.”

“We were always friendly; she was always nice to me,” she said. “There’s been stuff, and now, with, unfortunately, social media, there’s more stuff that’s a problem.
