Teresa Giudice Reacts to the Idea of Caroline Manzo Returning to RHONJ

Teresa shared why she thinks "it doesn't even make sense" for Caroline Manzo to return to RHONJ.

Teresa Giudice is always turning the tables, but she's not interested in turning back time. 

How to Watch

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14 premiere May 5th at 8/7c on Bravo and stream next day on Peacock.

During an appearance on the November 9 episode of the Everything Iconic with Danny Pellegrino podcast, host Danny Pellegrino asked The Real Housewives of New Jersey O.G. whether she wants fellow original star Caroline Manzo to return. 

Her answer may come as a surprise to longtime fans.

"It's not that we don't get along, it's just so passé," Teresa said about the reason why she doesn't think it would be a good idea. "She's not even in my vision. She's definitely in my rearview mirror, she's not looking forward, [she's] in my windshield."

Though they both live in the Garden State, the Namaste B$tches podcast host said that she never sees Caroline socially. 

"She's not in my friend circle, I don't associate with her; I never see her, so it doesn't even make sense. She doesn't hang out with any of us [or] any of our friends," Teresa added. "I don't even know who she hangs out with."

The Jersey ladies were both at BravoCon 2022, but Teresa said that the last time she really spent time with Caroline was when they teamed up to film a Super Bowl commercial together in 2020. 

"The last time I saw her, we did the Super Bowl commercial together..." the mom of four said. "That was it. We were both very professional, [and] that was it."

During BravoCon 2022, Caroline said that her relationship with Teresa was "status quo," though she said she "tried" to get dinner with the now-newlywed before they filmed their Super Bowl commercial together. She said Teresa declined the invite, and Caroline asked for them to put aside their differences to film the ad.

"We're gonna do a good job and we're gonna have fun," Caroline recalled about her message to Teresa. 

At a Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen taping at BravoCon 2022, the ladies did actually agree on something: they weren't going to squash their beef anytime soon. 

Watch The Real Housewives of New Jersey on Peacock and the Bravo app.
