Margaret Josephs spoke of Teresa Giudice‘s boyfriend, Luis Ruelas, during an appearance on The Wendy Williams Show this week.
As Teresa officially confirmed on The Real Housewives of New Jersey that she was dating someone new, Margaret told Wendy what she’s heard about Luis while also addressing Melissa Gorga and Joe Gorga‘s marriage issues. She also discussed her drama with Jennifer Aydin and Danielle Staub.
“I met him briefly,” Margaret revealed on the April 21 episode of Luis. “I heard that [he wants sex all the time] but Teresa has to catch up because she hasn’t had sex for a few years.”
At the beginning of RHONJ season 11, Teresa was seen spreading a rumor about Jackie Goldschneider‘s husband, Evan Goldschneider, potentially cheating on her at the gym. And, while Margaret chalked up the claims to “baseless rumors,” telling Wendy he’s “absolutely not cheating,” she found herself in the midst of their issues during filming.
“I was caught in the middle because I wanted Teresa to apologize. Teresa gets something in her head… and it just comes out of her mouth. So I was like, ‘You can unwind this if you just apologize,’ and it just didn’t go that way,” she recalled.
Margaret also found herself in the middle of the Gorgas’ marital challenges after suggesting Joe was behaving in a “chauvinistic” manner. Still, despite her claims against Joe, Margaret believes the couple will “work it out.”
“She’s so busy with work. I think Joe felt… insecure. Melissa’s not an old-fashioned girl. [But] I think a little therapy, everybody’s fine,” she shared.
As for her issues with Jennifer, which she said were popping up “on a regular basis,” Margaret explained that their “different core value system” has caused friction between them.
“I read the room a lot better than she does. I always feel like, don’t eat a lobster in front of a homeless person. That’s really what it is with her and I. But I don’t think she’s a bad person,” Margaret insisted. “I just think we have different value systems.”
Also during her appearance, Margaret confirmed she and Danielle are not on speaking terms.
“We’re not getting along. We haven’t spoken in a very long time. She’s no longer on the show… I wouldn’t say because of me but you know, things happen,” Margaret explained.
Following Danielle’s January 2020 exit from RHONJ, Margaret caused a stir with her ex-castmate when she purchased an item formerly found in the home she shared with ex-husband Marty Caffrey.
“After [Marty] sold the house, he also sold the pieces in the house and of course I coveted them from the beginning because her house was staged,” Margaret stated. “There was this large horse photo that I really wanted so I had to Venmo the money to [Dolores Catania], Dolores Venmo-ed the money to Marty’s girlfriend, and I got the photo.”
“She had a rage. Marty even called me after the fact and told me. But I said, ‘She got the pony. I got the stallion,’” Margaret added.
The Real Housewives of New Jersey season 11 airs Wednesdays at 9/8c on Bravo.
