Ahead of Real Housewives of New Jersey Season 14, John Fuda and Jennifer Fessler had an odd conversation. Jenn recently shared as many details as she was willing to.
Bravo fans knew him as Rachel Fuda’s husband. However, even when separated from Rachel, John’s been the subject of plenty of drama. Most of the focus on John comes from alleged criminality.
Most recently, a blind item accused John of dealing drugs. Of course, fans later learned about the RHONJ leaks allegedly meant to take down the Fudas specifically. Still, John might be a shady character. Take it from Jenn.
What did John say to Jenn at BravoCon?
In a chat with Us Weekly, Jenn discussed her current relationship with the Fudas. “If I’m being really honest, we’d had some stuff happen before filming. And then things got a little sticky for me at BravoCon, and John and I had a discussion that I wasn’t necessarily so comfortable with.”
She continued, “It takes me a while sometimes to figure things out, but once I do, I was like, ‘Wait a second. I need some space.’” On the topic of Jenn’s friendship with Rachel, she said, “It was so great at the beginning, but now it doesn’t feel authentic to me.”
As for what happened, Jenn further explained, “I think Rachel said at one point, I heard her say that she took a break. I took a break. We all took a break. So that’s kind of where we’re at now.” She added, “I feel it’s sad when you care about people and they care about you, and then all of a sudden, you’re not speaking anymore.”
She described her current feelings by saying, “Of course it’s sad, but I don’t feel angry. I think Rachel and John may be angry at me. I’m not angry at them. I am more sad than angry.” Jenn assured fans that nothing had happened between her and Rachel and that there was “no ax to grind.”
The Real Housewives of New Jersey continues Sundays at 8/7c on Bravo.
