Teresa Giudice is the star of Bravo’s Real Housewives Of New Jersey , at least according to her.
During the season six reunion show for the RHONJ , the mother of four went head-to-head with Teresa Aprea over the “mama rumor.” Earlier in the season, rumors had surfaced claiming Rino Aprea, the husband of Teresa Aprea, had slept with her mother. Although the Apreas immediately denied any such thing, the scandal continued to be a main storyline on the show. On the reunion episode, the issue came up once again and led to some serious accusations being thrown by Aprea.
“I think you like to be the queen of your castle,” Aprea told Giudice, via a RHONJ sneak peek by PEOPLE Magazine . “I think my family was getting a lot of attention and I just think you wanted the attention off of you and your case and your negativity, so let’s just throw someone else under the bus. I’m not going to get into the whole production thing and Teresa, they were mad at you because you weren’t bringing anything to the show.”
“I wasn’t bringing anything to the show?” Giudice, who the Inquisitr reported will return for RHONJ season seven, asked. “The whole show was about me!”
“The trial, I think, it was very draining on you, and I think that it was just kind of a… let’s take the focus off of you and bring something to the show once again, and take down my family,” Aprea continued of what she claimed was Giudice’s reason behind spreading the rumor about her husband and mother.
“You have your opinion, I have my opinion,” Giudice shot back. “We are both strong-willed women. Consciously, I wouldn’t be able to do that someone because it would like come back to be somehow, I don’t know, karma, whatever.”
This isn’t the first time Teresa Giudice has had to face some not so ideal issues on RHONJ . Earlier in the reunion, Amber Marchese’s husband, Jim, brought up the moment when Giudice’s brother, Joe Gorga, called her a “scumbag.” As the Inquisitr reported, Jim brought up the issue in an effort to take the spotlight off his reportedly disrespectful treatment of women.
Still Giudice and her family are coming back for more . “It was a no brainer for Teresa to decide to do the show, because she obviously needs the money to pay off mounting debts,” a source told Radar Online of her decision on November 3. “The producers were thrilled, because it will result in a ratings bonanza.”
The third part of the RHONJ season six reunion show will be seen on Tuesday, November 11, at 9 pm on Bravo .
