There’s been a lot of drama surrounding the Real Housewives of New Jersey. From talk of leaking sensitive info to bloggers to canceled reunions to Jackie Goldschneider revealing Margaret Josephs asked her and Jenn Fessler to quit the show, a LOT has gone down. Hell, even Tamra Judge got into the middle of it, claiming Jackie’s claims were untrue. Well, Tam Tam, Marge might’ve lied to you because Messy Fessy is mentioning it all (or at least her version).
Jenn Fessler almost left Jersey Housewives after Season 13
During her interview with Access Hollywood, Jenn discussed what the major challenges of filming the show were. After chatting for a while, she mentioned she didn’t like whenever the kids were mentioned in a negative light. Later, she referenced the alleged phone call Margaret said Luis Ruelas made to her son. Jenn eventually admitted she believed Luis did contact Marge’s son.
“When it comes to your kid, that’s it,” Jenn said. “So, I said to Margaret, ‘If you don’t want to do the show, I understand that. And I love you, and it’s about your kid. I won’t go back if you don’t go back.’”
It’s kind of a silly promise for Jenn to make, considering Marge loves being in front of a Bravo camera. Did she really think she’d turn down her consistent check because she didn’t want to work with Teresa Giudice? Come on, let’s think here.
“You may know this,” Jenn continued. “Margaret came back.” Uhh, yeah, she did. The entire Bravoverse could’ve told you that.
Jenn’s statements really are interesting, though, because Jackie told us about this early this month. “Margaret wanted, if [Luis Ruelas] was coming back to the show, she didn’t want me and Jenn Fessler to come back to the show,” she said. “She wanted to leave, and she wanted all of us to leave together.”
Jackie continued, saying Jenn Fessler was willing to quit; however, she was not. “‘I love you,’” Jackie told Marge. “But I’m not leaving my job because you don’t like somebody.’”
Ugh… Andy Cohen, is it still too late to order that reunion?
