Margaret Josephs is reacting to Luis Ruelas wishing harm on her son during the Real Housewives of New Jersey season 14 finale.
Following the airing of the episode on Sunday, Margaret, 57, slammed Teresa Giudice‘s husband for his “appalling” and “disgusting” comment as she also shaded Jackie Goldschneider, 47, as “disgraceful” for failing to speak up and accused her co-star of being loyal to no one.
“I was threatened again in the finale, my entire family,” Margaret stated on SiriusXM’s Reality Checked with Kiki Monique. “I find it appalling, disgusting … No one says that. It’s horrifying. It’s very disgraceful.”
As RHONJ fans saw, Luis, 50, told Teresa, 52, on Sunday’s episode that he hoped Margaret’s son “suffered” before offering an apology on Tuesday amid major social media backlash.
In addition to being repulsed by Luis’ statement against her son, Margaret was also upset with Jackie.
“I was nothing but a champion for Jackie. I loved her. I cared for her and she watched them do all these horrible things to me and never spoke up. So I actually find it disgraceful,” she said of her former friend. “Jackie knew about that, knows that side, and kept quiet. She probably didn’t want that terror to come on herself and figured, ‘Let it come all on Margaret and no one will be the wiser.’ But as fate would have it, it all came out. The truth all came out.”
Although Margaret exposed Jackie for meeting with Luis’ ex in the finale episode, Teresa, who Jackie grew close to amid season 14, was unmoved, which Margaret believes was due to Teresa’s disdain for her.
“Absolutely. That and Teresa didn’t want me, as her dear friend Jennifer Aydin said, to have the win because she knew I was absolutely vindicated in that moment, and Teresa couldn’t admit to being wrong or anything remotely like that,” Margaret explained. “And also, Jackie played it all wrong. If she had half a brain, Jackie should have said, ‘Yeah, Teresa, I wanted to stick it right up your ass and I love Margaret and you know what? I wanted to ruin you and I did. I got ya back. Margaret. I’m so sorry. How could I have done this to you,’ and ran to my side of the table. That’s what Jackie should’ve done. She would’ve looked like a hero.”
“[But] Jackie has no loyalty to anybody but herself. She made that quite clear,” Margaret added.
As for the info Jackie said she got from Luis’ ex to use if Teresa didn’t stop targeting her, Margaret shared what she knew about Luis’ infamous Warrior video.
“I think it was very serendipitous if you look at Bravo and Cocktails, who also, thank God, told the truth and said she had nothing to do with me because she didn’t. I was accused of all of that, and she said she doesn’t know where she got the Warrior video from, but it could’ve been from the ex or it could’ve been from Jackie Goldschneider,” Margaret revealed.
Also on the radio show, Margaret teased the upcoming episode of RHONJ, which will feature the cast re-watching the finale episode in two groups.
“There are some surprising, shocking moments. It’s gonna be a good watch,” she vowed.
