Before seemingly leaking the news regarding Teresa Giudice‘s alleged departure from the Real Housewives of New Jersey cast, the 49-year-old Real Housewives of Orange County alum, who spent time with Teresa, 53, back in June, was seen filming herself in her swimming pool in Palm Desert, California.
“Who are you talking to?” Rick asks, as seen in a TikTok video shared by Chai Spilla.
“I’m talking to my peeps … I’m talking to my TikTok. I’m trying to get more followers because it’s all a scam,” Kelly replies.
Then, as Rick is heard in the background, she tells her listeners, “Rick doesn’t want me on here anymore,” explaining that she had “talked about his family being doctors of psychiatry.”
“It’s all a scam,” she alleges as Rick interjects.
“I need to talk to you. I need to have a conversation,” he states.
But she claims she doesn’t know how to stop her video.
“He’s listening to me right now, see? He’s monitoring me,” she explains as her livestream is heard on her husband’s phone.
“I will jump in there and upend you,” Rick argues.
He then takes her phone from her and tells her audience, “I hope you guys had a great convo. Love you all very much.”

In a second video shared by the same account, Kelly is asked if she knows anything about Teresa leaving RHONJ.
“I can’t say. I’m not allowed,” she first shares.
Then, after signaling a report regarding the returns of Melissa Gorga, 46, Margaret Josephs, 57, and Dolores Catania, 54, and saying, “Teresa had a spinoff,” Kelly claims to have insider knowledge.
“I can tell you this: I don’t think I’m gonna watch New Jersey without Teresa. I’m sad, too, about Teresa Giudice. I’m sad,” she states of Teresa’s supposed exit. “I’ve known about this for a long time. I’ve known this. And I haven’t said a word.”

Kelly’s claims come just one week after an insider told OK! Magazine that Teresa “did not film” test scenes for season 15.
“It’s really looking probable Bravo is moving on without her, and the show’s future does not include her,” the source alleged.
“Bravo has decided to pursue building the show around Margaret as the main character for the time being,” they continued. “Dolores and Melissa are both close with Margaret, so that part is aligned. And, Marge isn’t scared to be dramatic, but she’s also funny and quick-witted. Additionally, she’s always been open with her life and doesn’t hide things. She truly embodies everything a ‘Real Housewife’ has always meant to be.”
Kelly was featured on The Real Housewives of Orange County in a full-time role from season 11 to season 15.
