As you may recall, Teresa reunited with Jacqueline during a 2023 trip to Las Vegas. And they ended their years-long feud. Jacqueline and her husband, Chris Laurita, relocated to Nevada in 2019. Even Teresa’s husband, Luis Ruelas, bonded with Chris. It was all love, love, love.
Plus, Jacqueline praised Luis and they bonded over both having autistic sons named Nicholas. But some fans felt that this new friendship was formed to take down common enemy Melissa Gorga.
Not so fast! “If you’re asking me to comment on what some people are saying about my friendship with Teresa, once again, I couldn’t care less what people think about it!” Jacqueline told OK!. As for rumors that Jacqueline cozied up to Teresa in hopes of making a reality TV comeback? “I laugh every time someone says that it must be because I want to return to The Real Housewives of New Jersey. I’m living blissfully in California,” she explained.
“To the people that are genuinely concerned that Teresa is using me and/or that she’ll hurt me again, I appreciate your concern,” the RHONJ alum stated, “but please stop worrying! Our friendship is thriving without being on that toxic show — just like it did seven years prior to being on that show.”
Jacqueline continued, “There is nothing Teresa is asking of me. We are just having fun reconnecting. Stop overanalyzing our friendship! We are good!” she said. “Everyone relax!”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey airs on Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo.
