I looks like Caroline Manzo's sister Dina will land smack dab in the middle of the feud raging between Caroline and Teresa Giudice on part 2 of the Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion next week. But don't look to Dina to fan the flames -- she says she's staying out of it. "eww getting some MEAN tweets," Dina wrote on her Twitter page recently. "I didn't take sides, don't assume~didn't even know they were not getting along until recently~I'm not involved."
Although the Manzos are infamously "thick as thieves," Dina is also a close pal to Teresa. So close, in fact, she's Audriana's godmother. Awkward situation much? "Yes Dina & I are still friends," Teresa tweeted confirming her "Italian as the Olive Garden" comment in Fabulicious didn't spark a war between the friends. "She's my baby's godmother & she has a great heart! Love her!! & I LOVE Dina's Party on HGTV don't you? Xx"
While Jacqueline's throwing Twitter jabs and Caroline's claiming she was never friends with the Giudices (despite vacations together), Teresa's killing her frenemies with passive aggressive kindness. "I'm worried about them because it's obvious by their erratic behavior they are hurting. I think until they find happiness and peace in their own lives, with their own jobs, their marriages, and relationships with their children and siblings, they aren't going to be able to be happy for anyone else and certainly not for anyone else's success. No matter what, they will always hold a special place in my heart," Teresa writes in her blog. "I wish them and their families all the best, and will continue to keep them in my prayers."
Watch Teresa continue to take on her co-stars on Part 2 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey reunion, airing this Sunday at 10 p.m.
Caroline has proclaimed many times that Teresa IS a friend and is FAMILY. Caroline compared Tre to Lucy in writing - in her very own Bravo blog!
As for Caroline calling Tre stupid & the montage of Caroline & everyone else screwing up words, let's get real - Teresa is the only one that has a legitimate excuse - English is her second language. Anyone that speaks more than one language fluently can see Teresa spinning the words around in her mind while she's speaking, trying to find the correct word in English for what she is saying in her head in Italian. English is my first lang. but I also speak Spanish fluently, as well as German & even a bit of Japanese, so I know what I am talking about.
I do not know what Caroline's problem is, but as far as all the viewers can see, Teresa has done nothing to merit Caroline's wrath. If Caroline truly loved her sister Dina, as she claims, she would NOT try to hurt the mother of Dina's God daughter. Even if she had a legitimate reason to be angry with Tre she would NOT take it public and would not say so many horrible things to & about Teresa creating such an awkward position for her sister. She could simply cut ties with Tre, stop talking to her & about her. Simple as that. There has to be some other reason that Caroline wants to cut Teresa down in such a vicious & public way. Maybe she truly is jealous of Teresa's success, who knows?! Whatever the real reason, Caroline is certainly behaving like the backside of a donkey : {
Not just the Teresa Show: I really like Teresa and her firery spirit till this year,now she is just mean.Maybe this is from all the strain of the Bankruptcy,her husband as see not the best person ( just my humble opinion). To turn on family,Caroline,Jacquline can't'believe the things coming out of her mouth on the Reuion.She was in the corner firing shot before anyone said anything.Something has changed her and I don't think she can face the real problem whaich is not with her friends and family but her husband.
Dina wanted to seperate herself from all the drama yet she still allows Teresa to pull her in just by her mere presence, it's an obvious attempt to show up Caroline. She's such a kid, that she would stoop so low as to decieve poor Dina into thinking she's just visiting her.
I'm still not convinced that Kathy and Melissa are not trouble makers and out to cause problems for Teresa. I'm very disappointed in Caroline Manzo the way she was telling everyone what Teresa had said about them. I'm not saying Teresa was right in the way she's been acting but the others aren't much better!
After watching this season, it seems Teresa is acting out just to try to outshine Melissa Kathie Caroline and Jacqueline. It looks like the money problems for Teresa may also be husband problems. Bet Joe hates making pizza everyday and with Teresa making more money, he has to answer to her. Teresa is acting worse than Danielle ever did so hopefully Bravo will not want Teresa back. Caroline stay true to who you are, but, hoping you and Dina are true sisters..and true friends.
Ah Bravo, although I know this comment will probably never see the light of day on this blog, I just have to vent. Dont you get it yet Bravo/Andy, we the viewers are not stupid. Look, it is very apparent that you are still trying to shove Caroline Manzo down our throats as being "the know all and end all guru of reality tv", but stop, it is very obvious that Caroline is twisting the facts and outright lying on many levels, and you Bravo are letting her get away with it just to bring more hurt to another family and just like the Armstrongs you will take no resposibility. I myself used to like Caroline. Believe it or not she used to be my fav., but she does not practice what she preaches, and you at Bravo/Andy never bring up the non-legal issues that are happening in her family, which hits very high in the political arena in NJ. Truly, I was def. never a fan of T's and never, ever thought I woiuld be sticking up for her, but Jaq laurita is all over twitter/blogs ranting and raving, but yet saying she cant go into a lot because of "contractual reasons", but yet I would think Bravo and their Lawyers would have been smart enough to put "reunion obligations" in their contracts, wouldnt they?. Or is this just a ploy by Bravo for ratings, cause wont season 4 have a reunion, or will Jaq and all the other "stand-up" gals be able to get out that one?
Just thought that it was quite a coincidence that Dina sent a message on Twitter saying that now that she has everyone's attention, to view her show on HGTV. I often wonder what her agenda is.
Proudmomtoo:
Im not sure what show you are watching but on RHONJ Teresa has done nothing but bash Melissa and Kathy throughout the season and if Jacqueline and Caroline do not agree with her, she has done the same to them. The last time I looked, none of the housewives in New Jersey, especially Teresa, have wings or halos, so please stop making Teresa sound like an angel. Teresa is jealous of anyone who takes the spotlight away from her. We all have our faults and this is one of hers. She needs to accept it, own it and move on. Kathy didnt start making desserts because Teresa wrote a cookbook and Melissa didnt start singing for the same reason. We all have passions because they make us strive for creativity. The world does not revolve around the Giudices and when Teresa finally learns that, maybe the show will return to normal. Just my two cents.
I hope Bravo prints this. They havent printed my last few posts.
I miss Dina, but love her spin off show! Three against one is not fair, but I guess it could be worse. Caroline is jealous of Teresa - that was apparent on the last vacation together - and has been making catty comments about her all season. Will be glad to see Caroline off the show - she is definitely a frienemy (did I spell that right lol?) so Teresa watch your back.
I have been a fan of New Jersey since the start......but watching Sunday Nights episode and also this whole season, it has really saddended me for Teresa. She isn't the same person who started the show. Teresa is always trying to outshine and you can tell when Teresa gets caught up in a lie, her voice changes, and she over speaks everyone. It is really sad that Teresa has to do this to the gang. If your jealous, deal with it, if you don't like someone on the show, deal with it. As for Caroline, Jackie, Melissa, and Kathy, you guys are wonderful and I do believe Teresa is a little jealous that her family members did join the show. But all is fair in love and war. Teresa needs to grow up and if this next weeks show is like this last one, OMG I can't take Teresa's Voice anymore. She's just plain evil and her marriage I do believe is in trouble. Joe(husband) is a mean spirited man and if he can't get along with the bro, then what is family all about in Itialian? Think on those words Teresa. Check yourself cause your hurting your image. I do believe on what Caroline is saying as she speaks the truth and always has. If there is an issue with Jackie, Caroline and Dina that surrounds Teresa, it is more than likely true. Teresa only cares about one thing, herself. Never will change. I feel Caroline has said it many times and it is so true, FAMILY is what is important. You always have your family. Well Teresa is loosing hers and she has just gone straight crazy. I will be watching Sunday night to see if she will get the picture, but someone please muzzle Teresa so everyone else can talk about their achivements without Teresa trying to one up them or take control of interview.
I am very disappointed in Caroline's behavior during the reunion. I understand that she may have her reasons to be upset at Teresa, but she did not have to stoop so low and begin spilling out all the things that Teresa may have shared with her in confidence when she thought that Caroline was her "friend". Caroline's true colors have been revealed! She's mean, hateful, and a backstabber. And Jackie couldn't even face Teresa...hmm...wonder why?! Melissa and Kathy must be overjoyed to see that everyone's against Teresa. Even the host was talking down to Teresa during the reunion. I have watched all the RHONJ episodes, and I believe that Teresa is the only genuine person on that show. She is not afraid to be herself, she doesn't take crap from no-one, and she doesn't care what people think. If it wasn't for Teresa, I wouldn't even watch this show!
As far as the viewers see? Don't speak for me and anyone else who can easily see through Miss Tre Terror! Caroline's done a great job of holding in her true feelings about the Giudices because she's a lady and a good person. But even strong people can only take so much. She mentions that she was hurt by the book so Teresa unleashes this 8 page blog trashing HER. And yet her fan want to blame Caroline (or anyone but Teresa). To say that Caroline is jealous of Teresa is so absurd. She's got a wonderful life, a great family and a thriving business. Teresa has great kids and a cookbook deal, but her husband is bad news and they're constantly having to defend themselves in court.
From what I have seen I think Teresa was set up by Bravo. For Melissa to be texting to Danielle last year and feeding her info. Bravo not telling Teresa they were bringing on Melissa and Kathy... and for Melissa and Kathy to not tell her. Come on. This was a set up. And I agree that I think Carloine is a two faced person right now. I used to like her but come on. When you are friends with someone you do say things that you don't want everyone to know. You talk things out with people. You say things when you are hurt or mad to a friend that you would never say to a person... nor would you want that person to know what you said. That is part of being human. But for that friend when they are done with you to start telling everyone what you said is just MEAN. I hope "Just ask Carloine" goes off the air. Look at how her kids sat there and made fun of that lady who called in. Is that what she does behind all of her viewers calls. This kind of person is not someone who anyone needs to look up to. And I feel that the way that Andy kept fueling the fire against Teresa during the reunion shows what I said was true... this season was a gang up on Teresa season... which is so mean since she has been having so many problems this year.
Caroline,Melissa, and Kathy portray themselves as godly saints. Not! Teresa uses humor and dizziness to hide her pain. It is nice of Dina to stay out of it but Caroline will not be happy until she does take sides!
Tereasa and Joe WAS actually my favorites until this season. This season she has shown a more jealous and envious side and I can t get with that. I can't believe how she turned on her friends when they stuck by her through all she went through. I always thought that Carolyn was a real genuin person and I love the closeness of her family. It is time for Tereasa to go!!! She has shown her true colors!!!
It is time for Teresa to go!!!! She displayed her true jealous, envious, and backstabbing side this season. Teresa was my favorite until this season, I was floored at some of the underlined jealousy and hatred that she displayed toward Melissa and Kathy. How dare Teresa turn on Carolyn and her family like that, the nerve...... If she was Carolyn real friend she would have notified her of the supposed "joke" about her in her cookbook. Teresa knew just what she was doing..., staying in the spotlight by any, and I mean, ANY means necessary.
I couldnt believe Caroline.
How could she tell Tre she wanted her out of her life 2 years ago? Yet who was on the show 2 years ago? Danielle. Caroline, I feel, even though I am not a Teresa fan, used Tre. Now that Danielle is no longer on the show, she doesn't need her.
Tre stated her opinion in not wanting her own daughters to work at a stripper-car wash. How is that an insult to Caroline? Caroline herself admitted in Season 2 that she wasn't 100% Italian, so again, why was Caroline offended?
Shame on Dina for picking crazy teresa over her sister. She will regret that decison sooner rather than later. Caroline is total class and speaks from her heart. Teresa is total garbage(like her brother said) and speaks only out of jealousy.
I agree that Teresa has really turned me off. She is so defensive and delusional. I used to be a huge fan of hers, but it is glaringly obvious that she is jealous of the success of her brother and Melissa and she is trying to compete with them. It's so funny b/c it's deja vu now that Melissa & Joe are on the show. Their loving behavior this season mirrors the behavior of Teresa & Joe G in earlier seasons. It seems Teresa believes that everything revolves around her and she behaved as though the reunion & the season are "her show" making reference to Melissa & Kathy not letting her know what their ambitions were prior to filming this season's show. It is not the Teresa show & I have gradually lost respect for Teresa, b/c she behaves like the whole world is against her and she can't see what is right in front of her that people were originally trying to be supportive to her. I am concerned too that she is not emotionally supported by her husband and fear that the emotional strain of putting up the facade that all is well will really cause her damage in the near future. I wish them all reconciliation and blessings.
Caroline stop making up ur face that is not motherly and classy!! lol But seriously you need to stop being in people biz focus on urs n stop blaming Tersa for ur problems. This is sad :(
Tre thinks the other ladies aren't happy in their lives and marriages??? I'm laughing my head off right now. She just keeps setting herself up for digs. The other 4 ladies obviously have great marriages!!! As far as English being her 2nd language.......she's been speaking it since she was 2 years old, people!!! She's just stupid, not funny.
Teresa is the one acting like the backside of a donkey this season! I used to think she was cute and forgave her antics, writing it off to her spunky personality. However, this season she's shown how shallow, self-centered and mean she she is. In my opinion, the only 2 that have any real class are Jaqueline & Caroline.
I think Teresa success has gotten to her head she loosing friends and family over it. She needs to get herself together. She clearly insulting her friends and family to get more fame and attention that she thought she was loosing by her sis in law and cousin joining the real housewives so she tries to out do them in her cook book by stirring drama... At the end Caroline is a strong opinionated woman that gives advice and Teresa turned to her more than once when she was in need.
Kudos to Dina-she was always the classiest act. I am so over Caroline this season. She is all over saying that her and Teresa were never friends. If that is true and I have to believe that she would not lie, the Housewives franchise is a total fraud.
Im so disappointed in the reunion , not all viewers want to see people tear each other up. This housewive shows have all turned to backstabbing , and jealousy. Bethanys show is successful because it shows happy times and no hidden mean spirits. I felt sick watching Carolyn attack Teresa, and her family enjoying it. Andy scale back on the horrible behavior america is having hard times we need light hearted fun. You women leave each other alone. :)
Well, this is my first attempt at voicing my opinion on a blog, and believe me, if I had the chance to confront Jacqueline in person, I would give her the respect of letting her know how I feel in person. . . you chose to air your life on a reality show, and then you choose not to show up for the reunion, but instead, hide behind twitter! I think your petty, and you thrive on drama, you had a long friendship with Teresa, good or bad, she deserves to be confronted in person, not by you hiding behind a computer! I truly feel that the producers of the show, knew the drama bringing her family in, WITHOUT her knowledge would cause, and that is what made her turn into this crazed person we see today, you did "jump ship" and if something bad happens to her, like Russell from RHOBH, you will be partly to blame, I have lost all respect for you, and Caroline, I hope you sleep good at night!
Dina, I really miss you !! Here's some advise, stay clear of your sister Caroline, she is nothing but trouble. Teresa did nothing to warrent Caroline's wrath. You might be next. Caroline needs a hobby, something to focus on instead of putting her nose where is doesn't belong. Good luck in all you do !!
I think Caroline should leave the show. Your family is more important, let Teresa take her own self down, don't be a part of it. Teresa makes me sick, i have never seen a woman so superficial and afraid to lose at something. Loser......
Glad Teresa has at least one true friend. Hang in there, Tre!
And yes, Dina's show is awesome! Also, she looked absolutely amazing in that beautiful dress CM made for her. Stunning! Oh, and I loved getting to see her magical wonderland of closet. LOL.
Teresa has been nasty to nearly everyone all season...if it's not to their face, it's behind their backs. It's finally coming to a head. She can't take that Kathy and Melissa are well-liked by viewers. Granted, Melissa certainly had something to do with their previous feud, but she genuinely seems to have tried making amends with and for her husband's sister. Teresa continues to act like unclassy , and I'm tired of hearing her try to justify or talk her way out of things that come out of her mouth in putting down other people. She's one of those who thinks she's always right and then she's always the victim. Grow up, Teresa, you're quickly coming across rather psychotic like Daniel did. Caroline continues to be a class-act, in my book. I put more confidence in her version of the truth than I ever will Teresa's. I still really like Caroline, but Kathy, I think you are my new fave!
Everyone is human and we ALL make mistakes but what I see going on here is Spiritual and it's being reflected in the physical. Everything that Teresa is doing is EXACTLY the same stuff Danielle did. When Danielle let the show, she imparted what she was "carrying" spiritually onto Teresa and thus the same DRAMA, ATTITUDE, MALICE, DECEIT, LYING, DENIAL and so on, NEVER left the show. This Spirit is out to destroy people, especially women and those around them. Teresa is denying EVERYTHING she has been accused and confronted of the same way Danielle denied EVERYTHING she was accused and confronted. Does anyone see the similarities? This isn't a game people, it's a WAR and it's spiritual. These women need Jesus to intervene and need to get this "spirit" out of there. I love the women on this show and want them to have influence on the women of the USA because of their character and not their drama. If anyone believes this, and wants to know what "spirit" it is they are dealing with, it's the Jezebel spirit. Read about Jezebel in the bible. She acted the EXACT same way that Danielle and Teresa are acting. Not, that I know everything but I think this spirit came in when the women started to combine their faith in Jesus Christ with the belief they have in Energism. Jesus is ALL you need. HE alone defeats the anger, hate, drama, lying, stealing, cheating, drinking and so on, and so on, and so on!!!!! I love you all and I pray that the RHONJ get past all of this and that no more pain and suffering comes from these horrible fights, attitudes and especially the ANGER from all the drama.....IF you believe or don't believe in the bible, please just read this ONE verse. IT explains what's going on with the women on the real housewives of whatever city show. I even believe this is what happened to Taylor's husband. He was in a battle too!!! Satan was after him too and messing with him spiritually too. They are in a battle because Satan HATES them. He hates ALL of us but JESUS LOVES ALL of us, even if you are gay. Yes, you heard me right, HE LOVES ALL OF US!!!!
...Remember Ephesians 6:12 For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.
It's a SPIRITUAL battle people. Please remember who we are fighting against, "Not against flesh and blood.....(It's not Teresa fighting Caroline).....but against the authorities, against the powers....(spirits)....of this DARK WORLD and against the SPIRITUAL FORCES......of evil in the heavenly realms."
IT's the truth EVERYONE!!!!!!! I love the Real Housewives of Bravo and Jesus LOVES us ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
