Where Do Jacqueline Laurita and Teresa Giudice Stand?

When Season 7 of The Real Housewives of New Jersey premieres on Sunday, two of the Garden State ladies will be trying to see if they can put the pieces of their friendship puzzle back together. Teresa Giudice and Jacqueline Laurita have certainly had a tumultuous relationship over the years, and it still doesn't look like the twosome will be back to BFF status anytime soon.

"With Teresa, we have such a long history together and people have seen the best of us and the worst of us and I feel like you're gonna see that again," Jacqueline told The Daily Dish ahead of the Season 7 premiere. "It's a roller coaster relationship. It's up and down. It's navigating the friendship, trying to see if we can get back to where we were. You know, you could love someone, but you could be very frustrated with [them]. Every year you've seen good and bad with us, so you're gonna see that again this season."

So, does she think they can ever repair their fractured relationship? "I've learned to never say never, so I don't know where our relationship will go. It's not always good; it's not always bad," she said. "Sometimes it's great; sometimes it's horrible. So I can't predict the future. I just never say never."

Back in December 2015, Teresa was released from the Federal Correctional Institution in Danbury, Connecticut after spending 11 months there in connection with multiple counts of fraud which she pleaded guilty to in 2014. So, does Jacqueline think the experience changed the New Jersey mom at all? "At first I did see some changes in Teresa, but now not so much," she said. "But I don't know. I think people get the will — they want to change, they try to change but sometimes you are who you are."
