During Season 9 of Real Housewives of New Jersey, newbie housewife Jennifer Aydin made her debut. And we owe Jennifer a round of applause for creating many of the wildest moments on RHONJ. From the jump, she hit it off with OG Teresa Giudice, and she has been Team Teresa ever since.
However, Jennifer has been a polarizing figure on the show. She has bragged about her wealth. And Jennifer wasn’t afraid to go low with her insults. But she has also been funny and vulnerable.
Let’s take a look back at Jennifer’s wildest moments on RHONJ. Buckle up!
When Margaret Josephs dissed Jennifer Aydin’s lip gloss
The ladies hit up Cabo and created plenty of drama. Jennifer was upset because the ladies bought Teresa a necklace for competing in a fitness competition. Since they didn’t use Jennifer’s jeweler brother, she was annoyed.
So, Jennifer called the necklace “f*cking ugly.” When she was accused of being rude, Jennifer replied, “Then I have bad manners. I own it.” I think Jennifer had a bit too much tequila.
Afterward, when she was making kissy faces across the table at Margaret Josephs, she rubbed Margaret the wrong way. It “looks like a monkey’s a**hole!” Margaret said of Jennifer’s plump pout. Oof.
When Jennifer Aydin smashed a glass fighting Melissa Gorga in Cabo
The Cabo trip continued to spiral out of control. Earlier, Margaret claimed that Jennifer’s husband, Dr. Bill Aydin, had a girlfriend. Afterward, Margaret apologized and admitted that she made it up.
But Danielle Staub brought up the dig at a group dinner. And she followed that with a diss about Margaret’s kids and grandkids. Listen – there is a rule that kids are off limits, especially in RHONJ. So, Margaret doused Danielle with some wine.
Security had to restrain Danielle as Margaret left. Afterward, Melissa Gorga accused either Jennifer or Danielle of throwing a glass at her. “If I threw a glass at you, sweetheart, you would know it,” Jennifer stated. “It was not me, sweetheart, it was not me.” To prove her point, Jennifer then broke a glass on the table.
“You got the wrong f*cking girl!” Melissa exclaimed as she headed towards Jennifer. Thankfully, the ladies didn’t put their hands on each other.
When Jennifer Aydin roasted her RHONJ co-stars
During the tenth season, Jennifer was asked to show off her remarkable talent for imitating people. Usually, she did these impressions behind the target’s back, like she did with Jackie Goldschneider.
But in this hilarious scene, a tipsy Jennifer put on quite a show. She roasted every co-star, but her impression of Margaret’s laugh killed it. Jennifer threw her head back and bellowed as the entire cast dissolved into laughter. We need more of this on RHONJ. Just saying.
When a drunken Jennifer Aydin had to be carried out of Teresa Giudice’s party
At Teresa’s pool party, tequila pong in the pool was the game of choice. And Jennifer was in it to win it. However, she became so intoxicated that she couldn’t even stand. Margaret and Teresa tried to steady her, but Jennifer ended up face down on the concrete. Yikes!
Finally, her husband Bill carried her to the car with an assist from Joe Gorga and Joe Benigno, Margaret’s husband. “I don’t want to ruin my seats,” Bill said of his new red Ferrari. Unfortunately, Jennifer vomited in her hubby’s new ride. “I have no memory of the pool party,” Jennifer later admitted. Shocker!
When Jennifer Aydin admitted that her husband Bill Aydin had an affair
Once again, the drama went down at one of Teresa’s pool parties. Margaret confronted Jennifer about acting superior to everyone. Then she dropped a bomb. Margaret claimed that Bill had an affair with the office manager at his old job.
Viewers waited for Jennifer to shoot down the claims. Instead, she responded, “She’s not an office manager. She’s a f*cking pharmaceutical rep, you f*cking idiot. If you get your facts straight.”
While some of Jennifer’s co-stars had heard rumblings about Bill’s infidelity from years ago, it was a shock for fans. In fact, Jennifer never told anyone and decided to let it go for the sake of her children and marriage. Bravo fans have seen plenty of Real Housewives lie in a similar situation. So, kudos to Jennifer for being honest. Also, don’t come on a reality show and then complain when your deep, dark secrets have come out.
When Jennifer Aydin and Melissa Gorga came to blows
The RHONJ cast, along with their husbands and boyfriends, were visiting the Jersey Shore. And it was a tense situation. Jennifer accused Frank Catania of telling Bill that he knew the identity of Evan Goldschneider’s cheating partner.
Of course, Evan never cheated on Jackie, his wife. When Frank denied making that comment, Jennifer called Joe “a little b*tch girl.”
In a flash, Melissa was out of her seat and charging towards Jennifer. Then Jennifer grabbed her wrist and the two ladies tussled. Meanwhile, Bill didn’t move or take Jennifer’s side, which seemed strange to the other cast members.
When Jennifer Aydin and Bill Aydin went to marriage counseling
Jennifer and Bill decided to attend marriage counseling to deal with the fallout from his affair. While Jennifer thought that she had healed from it, she had only buried her pain.
She was heartbroken when her daughter, Olivia Aydin, learned about the affair on TikTok. Then Olivia asked Jennifer if every man was a cheater. “You know what, baby? People make mistakes,” Jennifer told her daughter.
It was refreshing to see an emotional and vulnerable Jennifer dealing with her feelings about Bill’s infidelity. And was easy to empathize with her at that moment.
When Jennifer Aydin and Danielle Cabral had an altercation
Last season, newbie Danielle Cabral was fast friends with Teresa and Jennifer. But when Jennifer manipulated Danielle to reveal a cheating rumor about Melissa on camera, all hell broke loose.
Hell was again unleashed at Teresa’s sparkly Tulum-themed party. Has anyone else noticed that many of these incidents happened at Teresa’s house? Interesting.
Anyway, Jennifer accused Danielle of taking money from her charity event. In reality, Danielle paid vendors out of the proceeds and donated the rest to charity. Next, Jennifer accused Danielle of trying to ruin her hairstylist’s photo shoot for her hairline. As the two women screamed at each other, Danielle shouted, “You’re dirrrttty!”
Then, Jennifer shoved Danielle, which prompted Danielle to smash a cup on the side of Jennifer’s head. Why can’t we all just get along? And keep our hands to ourselves?
Jennifer has certainly had her share of wild moments in RHONJ, and some were iconic.
