Melissa Gorga Calls Out Jennifer Aydin as a ‘Total Jerk,’ While Danielle Stands by Her Actions: “Even Better Watching It Back”

Melissa Gorga slammed Jennifer Aydin as a “first-class jerk-off” as Danielle Cabral doubled down on slapping Jennifer in the face, saying it was “even better watching it back.”

Though Melissa and Jennifer have feuded on and off for years, Danielle fell out with Jennifer on the latest season of Real Housewives of New Jersey. During one fight, Danielle got up in Jennifer’s face before Jennifer shoved her back. Danielle responded by smashing a cup against her face.

During a live Q&A shared by @bravohousewives via @queensofbravo on Instagram, a fan asked Melissa if Aydin was “as big of a b**ch” as she’s portrayed on TV.

“That is a first-class jerk-off,” said Melissa.

Another fan in the audience apparently yelled “f**k Louie.” Later on, Danielle was asked about her slapping Aydin’s face.

“It was self-defense, but I’m gonna tell you something. It’s even better watching it back with all your friends,” she said.



Danielle then asked the audience to “imagine” watching “stuff like that” back.

On Instagram, Jennifer responded to a post suggesting that producers are “covering up” and offering “protection” for Danielle.

“Let’s see if people are as angry about [Danielle’s] words as they are about [Luis Ruelas’]!” said Jennifer, perhaps alluding to Luis wishing suffering for Margaret and her son. “[Danielle] also said in a confessional that she hopes my family ‘gets everything they deserve’ BTW- We Do! Everyday, Salty! But no one seemed to care about that either- Also, at the finale she said ‘you and your whack job kids’ but they cut that.”

In a different post, Jennifer indicated that only part of the dramatic finale fight – in which Jennifer said Danielle’s husband has “boobs” – was shown.

“How convenient that they cut out what [Danielle] said about my husband first, triggering me to say that about her husband,” said Jennifer. “Everyone there heard her and they all told her she should’ve never mentioned my husband first. But since you didn’t see that, figured I’d share.”



On a past episode of Live with Dana Wilkey, alum Kim D. also suggested that editors are protecting Danielle.

“Listen, there was … more than the pitchers [thrown],” explained Kim of the finale fight. “[Danielle] threw it and it hit glasses, everything. There was glass everywhere.”

“[And] there was a lot [more] being said … that pushed Jen to say what she said.”
