It’s Wacky Wednesday, when first we head to New Jersey for another RHONJ recap. Then we head down to Dallas where Andy and the RHOD plan to burn LeeAnne Locken at the stake. I’m a bit behind due some (non-resolved) technical issues. So there is not a moment to spare.
Oh I forgot that we ended in the middle of Danielle dragging Margaret by the hair. For some reason I thought we were done with that. And it ends very quickly with Teresa leaving with Danielle. All the other ladies are pissed that Teresa continues to stick up for Danielle. The normal people in the store look frightened and mortified. The ladies convince Margaret to stop talking to Marty. Danielle leaves and Teresa goes back inside and continues to defend Danielle.Margaret leaves crying and is disgusted with Teresa. Margaret says she can’t be friends with Teresa if she is friends with Danielle.
Dolores goes to Teresa’s to chat. First they talk about Teresa and Joe’s argument. Dolores thinks that Joe Giudice will be going after Teresa’s money when they divorce. Of course he will, and he should. Then they talk about Margaret. Teresa is done with Margaret. Meanwhile, Joe and Melissa talk about Teresa’s bizarre attachment to Danielle. Melissa is worried that Teresa will cause a scene at her fashion show. Of she will, it’s what she does. Let’s just get right to the brawling and get it over with.

Mama Joyce’s streets say that Teresa is dating the pool guy now that Joe is in Italy. Teresa and her brother go shopping for pool furniture. Joe tries to get Teresa to see the light with Danielle. It doesn’t work. Joe tries get Teresa to be nice to Margaret at the fashion show. She’s totally going to cause a scene with Margaret. I am all caught up and having to watch commercials because there is not much to say about this episode. There are only so many ways to say, “Teresa is an idiot.”
Let’s Get Ready To Rumble!
It’s finally time for the fashion show. In the history of RHONJ we have never had a fun, pleasant fashion show. Fashion shows are like the WWE Championship of RHONJ. Melissa runs the models through the plans for the show. Then she twerks on stage solely to embarrass her daughter. It was kind of funny when she dragged her mom off the stage.

Over at Teresa’s house there is an insane amount of glam squad types working on Teresa, Gia, and Milania. Of course Joe calls and Gia convinces Teresa to make up with him. Gia is not just the only parent in the house, now she is the marriage counselor. She’s kind of good at it actually. Now Teresa is asking for advice about what to do with Margaret. Gia says if she were Danielle she would have done the same thing, because she has a short fuse.
The Main Event
Everyone shows up in their finest Jersey looks. Dolores’s boyfriend, David is unavailable because he is going to “sniper school.” Am I the only one who thinks that is weird? Speaking of weird, I wish I had a photo of Margaret’s get up. I am not sure I can describe it in words. So I … um. Let’s move on. Margaret says she has whiplash. She rants about Teresa. Production sends in Teresa with Gia and Milania. One might think this will keep Teresa from popping off. But it won’t. I’m sure they are used to it by now. Teresa doesn’t even acknowledge Margaret.

The other women try to get Teresa to make up with Margaret. Jennifer seems to be fanning the flames with Teresa and getting her all riled up. Jackie tells Margaret that eventually Danielle will do something to Teresa and that relationship will end. That happens but I don’t think it happens until after filming. When Jennifer tells Teresa that the water thing was not as big a deal as the hair pulling, Teresa randomly throws water on Jennifer’s skirt. Jennifer is terrified of Teresa so she just sucks it up.
The fashion show itself looked like a lot of fun! Melissa did a great job. Margaret leaves quickly with Joe to avoid Teresa. Smart cookie, that one.
UGH. We are only halfway through the season! Off to recap Dallas!
Danielle is crazy and I’m not sure why Andy keeps on holding her hand on the WWHL previews, but it’s annoying.
I’m having a bad night. I’m no longer dry January or low card (for tonight.) I never go on Facebook but I did yesterday to post something for sale. Facebook recommended that I knew my ex, who doesn’t do social media, but I guess he does now for his new girlfriend who looks like a damn lumberjack. I try not to judge people on looks alone but this has me all confused. I never felt pretty or skinny or good enough, and his new girlfriend is big and older and not that pretty. 10 years of back and fourth and now I know he belongs to someone else..fucking social media.
You need to block him immediately. And you were clearly too good for him. That is what I saw when I read this.
JustJenn: BLOCK him immediately!
I did the same thing yesterday!! I haven’t been on facebook in months and I get on and immediately see a photo of my ex-husband and the wife he married 7 days after our divorce. (My kids and I never even heard of her before their marriage).
JustJenn: send them a toaster and wish them best of luck because you are SO, SO, SO much better without him. It has taken me a while to figure that out, but I am happier now than I ever was with him. And my kids tell me how much he fights with his wife in front of my kids. Don’t look back, look forward.
Sorry that happened to you. Facebook is just an added punch in the gut.
I did block him on Facebook and on my phone, honestly it was probably what I needed to see in order to fully move on.
Another RHONJ!! Andy Cohen is such a hypocrite liberal!! Making the rich richer!! And still making Teressa Guidice, the felon, rich as she puts a new pool in her house. Teresa will never learn and keeps spending and spending. They are all frauds. All the shows are scripted and drama gets stirred up by the producers. This Real Housewives franchise is NOT BUILDING UP WOMEN!! It just shows women getting drunk, fighting, hair pulling, and create a spectacle wherever they go in public as ANDY COHEN sits on his high horse and gets wealthy off of these women’s behavior and reputation. ONE DAY! Somebody is going to sue BRAVO because they have gone too far! TERESA GUIDICE STOLE FROM US THROUGH FRAUD AND WE ARE MAKING HER RICH! PRETTY MESSED UP. I HAVE TOO MUCH RESPECT FOR MYSELF AND WOMEN’S RELATIONSHIPS THAT I’M OUT AFTER WATCHING THIS EPISODE. DISGUSTING.
I need to know more about where Teresa pulled Danielle into after the fight. What in the world are creme brulee’ crepes and how can I get a few dozen? Sounds like magic to me
Oh God! How did I miss Creme Brulee crepes. MUST FIND.
There was a sign behind Teresa, it was all I could focus on!
That restaurant is called T-Swirl Crepe in Great Neck Village NY. It’s about 15 minutes to a half hour east of Manhattan on Long Island. Very rich, expensive, congested area where the hair pulled happened.
There is a divine crepe place in Greenville, SC that has creme brûlée crepes- in case you’re ever in the area!
I adore Greenville SC! I would love to go there. But…. Banjo and I have to ride this out together. Maybe I will go there first when I lose my best friend…
Oh! This made me tear up. Hugs.
If you Google Steven Dann (the boutique they were trashing), it’s somewhere on Long Island, NY. It may be Westbury, but I’m not sure.
It’s in Great Neck, next to the crepe store that everyone was drooling over.
I liked how Jackie talked to her kids about food. She focused on energy, health, being able to focus- not fat/weight. Her kids seem great
Agree Kay. Well said. I thought the kids were very tuned into their parents. Nice to see.
Last yrs reunion was on today & Kim d said Teresa was rekindling old romances…. I wonder if Kim d was talking about the pool guy ??? Teresa is such a fool.. I was never a marge fan, I thought she came Into that group & right up Teresa’s ass but this is ridiculous. I hope marge does press charges & I hope Beverly Merrill won’t be able to live in Marty’s 2 million dollar home…. anyone watch what happens live & the caller said hi Beverly ?….. classic 👏👏👏👏
Gotta say, the pool guy looked pretty good to me, he also seem pretty nice. I’d be suspicious about his level of intellectual and emotional intelligence if he’s dating Teresa.
I LAUGHED OUT LOUD WHEN THAT CALLER SAID THAT!!! She flipped them off. She’s the classiest, EVER!!
Oh ok wondering why she flipped off the camera and questioner! Haha!
On WWHL Beverly says she still lives with Marty and is in the process of buying the house and paying half the bills. In other words, they are back together. Why is she on WWHL after assaulting a castmate.?
I want marge to bring a doll head to the reunion with a ponytail on it…..
Omg yes!!
TT!! Exactly what I was asking myself!!! I hope Margaret presses charges!
Have you now seen what Jacqueline Laurita posted on twitter regarding the crazy ass lies Danielle was telling about the season 2 hair pull. I’m glad Jack said something . When ash pulled beverlys hair we all seen it. She can’t now just make up all this shit about stitches and herniated discs and her head hitting true pavement 😂
Ha! A caller calls in to ask Steph a question but you know how a lot of times they greet Andy and the other guest? She says, “Hi Andy, Hi BEVERLY!” And Beverly flips of the camera.
Danielle says she is never returning to RHONJ. She is starting her own cooking channel. Italian cooking that is gluten and dairy free. So it’s All Gelato? I mean, she is such an idiot. She can’t come back to RHONJ because everyone hates her including Teresa now.
Thank God!
I watched her cooking on Instagram. Her meatballs looked hard as a rock. She pounded those damn meatballs so hard (you don’t want to roll and pound them hard, they should be light and airy) She also used chicken sausage in her sauce instead of pork, not good. Pork gives the sauce flavor. She said the pork is too heavy. No, she’s wrong, if you go to a pork store, they are light as a feather with no fat.
Just my opinion. I am an expert meatball maker lol, so I was confused by her heavy balls.
I am packing my car, with an 80 pound geriatric dog that sheds like a motherfucker to come live with you. Sorry not sorry.
And also. “I was confused by her heavy balls.” might be the best thing ever written on this ratchet site. 🙂
You and Banjo would love it here and of course are always welcome. No heavy balls here, everything is light and fluffy. And I am not drinking it, but I would stock up on soda from Mexico for you. And some toys for Banjo. 🙂
You don’t know how much I wish I could be there. But I am here with Banjo til the end.
My 15 year old Chihuahuas leg just started collapsing when she walks this week. I think the end is coming faster than I thought but she still got into the trash can tonight bad leg and all
Heavy balls always throw me off too I prefer mine medium sized and tight as a drum… but to each his own.
Then her poor daughter came on to promote her baking & “ mommy” wouldn’t let her speak…. I feel really sorry for her daughters… the crap they must put up with…. ugh
I am curious as to why Teresa finally saw the light when it comes to Danielle but maybe it’s bc no one else wants to film with her? I can’t remember if you posted any info about that topic!
Carolyn Manzo and her brother Jamie have a new Youtube cooking channel that I’ve watched a couple times. I can’t imagine watching Danielle being “folksy” in the kitchen.
I would love to know what she FINALLY did to Teresa…can you spill??
I just reread her book Naked Truth. Danielle is most likely to exceed all expectations in the Bravo universe. I really like her. She brings it every episode. The only one who could replace her is Dina Manzo. Adore Dina !
Holy crap I applaud you! You read her book twice? Spill! I admit her book is not in my to read pile, but could be if…?
Remember when Danielle kept trying to pass herself off as Italian and said her mother was raped by a now dead priest who is her actual birth father??
That was some sociopathic shit then so what is different now?
I have an opinion on this. I know everyone in the world hates Danielle, but I think anyone’s knee jerk reaction would be to attack anyone who poured water on their head. It’s not the same as pouring it on the side of Jennifer’s dress.
Jennifer has been growing on me, I think she is spunky and funny. I think her children are funny too, but I like all the children on every show.
Marge’s house looks like a library from the outside, has some weird orange couch from the 70’s, dresses funky, but I think it all works for her. I like different. But, her hair is just a mess, it’s too thin to work with. I think she would look pretty with a short pixy cut, maybe even a bit darker. I think it would make her look younger and prettier. When she showed up with her last weird outfit, I just stare thinking what the hell and where does she find this stuff? I would look like a crazy person dressed like her.
Anyone notice Teresa’s walking strange the past few episodes? I noticed it last week and this week when she was at Fortunoff with her brother. Guess she got a discount for her lawn table and chairs there.
I thought Fortunoff went out of business 10+ years ago. Very surprised to see the name.
I was surprised to see it too. It used to have high end china, silverware, wedding gifts etc.. It actually had everything that wasn’t expensive too. I remember it having the best outdoor pitchers and plastic cups for the summer, they were so cute. Everything there was so pretty. I believe those stores are gone and now they turned into a Harrow’s.. how weird.
The family bought back the name soon after bankruptcy. They just use it to sell patio furniture, etc. now. There are also one or 2 fine jewelry stores. Def patio stores in CT and Long Island; I think I have seen one in Westchester and maybe Rockland. Nothing at all like the department store of old.
Yes to Teresa’s strange gait – It’s like she got off a horse after riding all day. Just weird.
“save a horse…ride a cow(pool) boy…”
This is cute! I’m smiling.
I noticed the strange bow legs too. She’s packed on a lot of weight and is probably doing some strange stuff with the pool guy…
I’m glad I’m not the only one who notices these things. In S1 or S2, Teresa was wearing shorts at home showing Dina something (her wine cellar maybe?). I remember thinking “what a cute walk she has.” … Now. Hmm, not so much. What happened?
To be fair. I don’t think my walk has become cuter in the past 10 years. I used to run, like literally run in 5 inch heels. Now, I hate getting my mail in slippers. The struggle is real. 🙂
I remember Tina Turner talking about how she could not wear flat shoes anymore because she had worn high heels so much and so long that her muscles/tendons had shrunk upwards…
That is one of my life goals! I’m pretty tall and and I love a high heel, I hope I never have to give them up!
Who wouldn’t want Tina’s legs. And her moves, nobody does it like her. The energy, the footwork. I don’t think anyone has legs like her.
I remember going up an inch or two in the heels and it felt awkward walking, but you get used to it after a short time. The muscles adjust to the higher heel I guess.
Women should ever have to willingly give up high heels. And they have some really beautiful ones in style. Sometimes we go through times when they are not as pretty as others. I saw a beautiful pair online in gold, silver, white, but you never know online, shoes (especially high heels) need to be tried on.
I pulled/injured my achilles tendon in one foot and higher heels actually made walking less painful. I had some sketchers sneakers with a 1 inch heel that I lived in because that tendon hurt so bad…and it took for freakin’ ever to heal
I totally agree! And actually, every time I see Marge in her bedroom, it grosses me out. So gross. Crap all over the tables, clothes in balls everywhere. It’s like you know she never cleans. I love Marge, but once she poured the water on Danielle, all bets were off. I don’t condone what crazy Danielle did to her, but Margaret knows she’s crazy and you can’t push crazy.
They were also saying she walks around everywhere naked and will even stand there, without a stitch on and have a conversation. I’m just not into that. I didn’t love when my ex husband would wander around naked with things jiggling all over the place. Cover up, like a normal insecure middle aged American damn it!
I also just don’t get her janked up house-you’re on a TV show, seen all over the world and you can’t pick up your shit? They’re not done with renovations on the home 2 or 3 yrs later? He’s a contactor! On television-the best free publicity. I’d never hire him and I kinda like him!!
I genuinely think Margaret threw water at least partially because Danielle would not get out of her face. And given that Danielle then stomped around the store for a couple of minutes breaking things before she said “Oh, I just can’t resist that ponytail,” it wasn’t exactly an act of self-defense or crime of passion.
I think everybody is right and wrong on this because both of these women are behaving like lunatics and we are trying to figure out which one is worse. I say both.
Danielle, well we all know about her and her crazy ways. In the past, Marge threw red wine on Danielle and pushed Marty in a pool. She’s not exactly zen either. lol
Laila- I am curious about the soda from Mexico. What does it taste like? My mom loves Jupina. She gets a few six backs of the Diet Jupina every few weeks. I believe it has a pineapple flavor. It is hard to find. We live in Miami, Florida and one of the only places she can find it is at our main grocery chain Publix.
What I can buy in San Antonio is made with the pure cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup. My husband goes nuts over it because that’s what he was raised on I think it tastes kind of flat
I was raised in Michigan and buy Faygo Rock and Rye on eBay
Kerry – It’s 12 oz glass bottles of Coke, Pepsi, Sprite, Crush etc.. that they sell in grocery stores delivered from Mexico. It’s the original version with sugar, no high fructose corn syrup.
Like Lisa said, the Pepsi does taste a bit flat, but I like it so much better than what we have in the cans and the plastic bottles.
I’ve seen pineapple and other fruit sodas in Mexican restaurants here in NY. They also have the Mexican colas as well.
Check Publix, I never would of known the difference if it wasn’t for TT mentioning this a few years back.
Laila, believe it or not those aren’t glass bottles even though they look and feel like it. It is a compound heavy plastic.
Laila- Thank you!!! I’ll look for it!
Kerry – Yeah, check a few stores, the Pepsi and Coke are my favorite, but I haven’t drank soda since September. I will start again in the summer. I’m not suppose to drink it, but I love it.
JoJoFLL – That is fascinating! Here I am thinking I am drinking good old fashioned glass and it turns out to be plastic. I have 3 bottles left in my refrigerator that I stopped drinking. I tried to see if it said glass, but most of it is written in Spanish.
I wanted to drink one, but I have really good will power, until the summer. lol
I’m not suppose to eat sugar or carbs forever!! Who can do that? Not me. So I cheat every so often.
Pretty sure Mexican co colas are in GLASS bottles.
