When Teresa Giudice announced that she was launching another podcast, that raised a few eyebrows. For years, she already hosted a podcast called Namaste B$tches, co-hosted with Melissa Pfeister. So, what happened to that?
The abrupt end of Namaste B$tches led a ton of Real Housewives of New Jersey fans to speculate about what happened between Tre and Melissa. Did their relationship go down the drain just like the relationship with Melissa Gorga? The fact that they no longer follow each other on Instagram certainly seems to suggest that.
There’s no more namaste
Melissa broke her silence about the abrupt end of Namaste B$tches in an interview with Daily Mail. Apparently, she’s well aware of the nastiness and the rumors floating around about the internet. According to her, none of it’s true.
“Regarding the podcast, people have made up some pretty terrible lies about it and me,” Melissa told the outlet.
Some fans thought that Melissa could have been behind the RHONJ leaks, adding fuel to the toxic flames of this franchise. However, Melissa said that she would never do anything to jeopardize her business venture. After all, she invested a ton of time into this podcast and already had one of her own before joining forces with Tre.
Melissa explained, “The truth is I spent over two years of my life, with two kids under six, having another podcast and being a nutritionist with my own business, creating and building Namaste B$tches.”
She continued, ‘I worked on it 24/7, and after all that, there is no way I would ever do anything to ruin it or go after someone. That’s not who I am or how I roll. You can ask any of the 150-plus people I’ve interviewed and have an amazing relationship with.”
Currently, Melissa is pregnant with her third child, following a devasting miscarriage last year. She said that it felt like it was “time for a break” from Namaste B$tches to focus on bringing a healthy baby into the world. You can’t blame her, but then she capped off her statement with a little bit of a mysterious tense.
She added, “I could say a lot more of the other reasons I stepped away, but again, that’s not who I am or what I do.”
Meanwhile, Teresa has been radio silent about the whole thing. She simply announced her new podcast, Turning the Tables, as if nothing ever happened.
New episodes of The Real Housewives of New Jersey air on Bravo, Sunday nights at 8/7c.
