Rachel Fuda Justifies Cutting Teresa Out of RHONJ Cast Photo: "Snip, Snip" (EXCLUSIVE)
Amid their feud on RHONJ Season 14, Rachel Fuda revealed how she feels about Teresa Giudice today.
Rachel Fuda and Teresa Giudice are not getting along on The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14, and it doesn't look like the ladies have mended fences since filming wrapped.
About a month before Season 14 premiered, Rachel shared a photo of the cast on her Instagram feed. While Rachel and fellow castmates Danielle Cabral, Melissa Gorga, Margaret Josephs, Dolores Catania, and Jennifer Aydin were all in the picture, Teresa, notably, was not.
During an exclusive chat with BravoTV.com, Rachel revealed why exactly she decided to cut the original cast member out of her post.
But first, she said that she wasn't expecting the crop to get as much attention as it did. "It was one of those things, like why would I post her? Why would I? Does that make sense to anyone?" she wondered. "It doesn’t make sense to me, so I cut her out — that’s my opinion."
Rachel went on to share a reminder that Teresa had put an "X" over her face when the RHONJ cast was nominated for a People's Choice Award for Season 13 back in January 2024 for The Reality Show of the Year category.
"Also, she put an X over my head, so no thank you... we got nominated for the People’s Choice Award and she had like posted a picture of the cast and like X-ed out all of our faces, except hers, Jen's, and Dolores', which is actually very telling, right? Like, who’s the problem? You’re the problem. So snip, snip."
Dolores Catania's surprising reaction to Rachel Fuda cropping out Teresa Giudice
Rachel and Teresa's castmate, Dolores, who has notoriously been neutral in the drama between Melissa, Margaret, and Rachel against Teresa and Jennifer, weighed in on the photo drama during a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen.
While Dolores doesn't appreciate the tit-for-tat drama, she did recognize that Teresa was the first to take a shot at Rachel by putting an "X" on her face.

"That was done first," Dolores said on the late night talk series about Rachel's decision to keep Teresa out of her post. "It wasn't being petty, it was retaliation."
"I'm not big on, you know, doing the same thing back, because then it makes you wrong too," she continued, noting that she would have handled the situation differently. "I like being able to say, 'Why'd you do that?' You can't say 'Why'd you do that?' when you did the same thing."
