After a season of shifting dynamics and broken friendships, The Real Housewives of New Jersey mom made it clear there was no bad blood between her and Teresa; in fact, they seemed to be on really great terms. Jennifer proved this in an August 4 Instagram photo that showed the longtime besties embracing each other while blowing kisses to the camera.

“We just always ‘Ha Ha- Laugh, Funny!’ Together!” Jennifer wrote, referencing Teresa’s memorable line in the RHONJ Season 3 reunion.

Minutes after the post, Teresa took to the comments section to show Jennifer some love: “Yes we do,” she declared, “love you.”

The exchange took place after the explosive Season 14 finale, in which the cast failed to resolve their longstanding drama. Minutes into the “Last Supper,” Jennifer found herself in a heated exchange with Danielle Cabral, whom she previously accused of being a “rude” and disloyal friend. After the feud reached a climax in Episode 8, Teresa attempted to facilitate a resolution between her fellow ’Wives; however, Jennifer wasn’t thrilled with the idea and even questioned Teresa’s loyalty.

“Teresa’s like, ‘You guys are my friends. I just want you to make up,’” Jennifer recalled in Season 14, Episode 11. “I was just like, ‘Do I f-cking tell you to make up with people you don’t want to make up with?!’ It’s like no one’s got my back. I told Teresa that night, like, what the f-ck? I shouldn’t even have to say anything.” 

Jennifer admitted she was “disappointed” by Teresa's reaction and questioned if their loyalty was one-sided. 

“In the heat of the moment … this is how you show up,” she said in an episode interview. “I need to tell Teresa how I’m disappointed in how she reacted. And how it’s gotta change. Because eventually my autopilot to be there for her will diminish.” 

Jennifer says Teresa promised to be a more supportive friend

Jennifer addressed the rift in the July 14 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, insisting she and Teresa talked things out and are still close friends.

“This is the thing: Teresa’s the type, you know how she always says, ‘You need to tell me’?” she said. “So, once I told [Teresa], she realized, and she’s like, ‘You know what, I’m gonna be more there for you.’ This is just who she is and being her friend, I acknowledge that about her. So we’re good. She’s one of my best friends.”
